Robot
Free-standing and poseable. Moving hydraulics in the knees and elbows. Expandable waist. Retractable knee guards. Foam lined torso shoulders. Pulsating Matrix feature. Wear it or display it.
Truck
Transforms into the complete semi truck mode. Fists convert to reveal headlights.
Helmet
One-size-fits-all, but it's on the large size. Breathing holes cut into the faceplate. Mouth moves when speaking. Foam lined.
Weapon
Gun springs open. The tip lights up blue/red automatically based on movement.
Gun Mount
Snap the gun into place on the truck's fifth wheel. Also accessible while in suit mode.
Hands
Gloves slip on for a snug fit. Made of soft material with rubber grips painted on the palms.
Lights
21 lights in total. 12 finger lights with 3 encased button batteries. 6 fog lights require 2 AA batteries and 2 headlights which require 2 AAA batteries.
Materials
Made of new hard ridged plastic (ABS flat plastic), hand-formed and riveted. Extremely durable and withstands wear and tear.
Time Spent
It took over 50 hours to build.
Feedback
I invite you to leave a comment, how am I doing? This would help so much as I work towards a full time career as a model builder.
