Okay, this is my first attempt at a Lego Transformer, so be gentle! I thought I'd start with an easy one, so I chose the mini-Autobot Windcharger. Only problem was, the transformation of the original toy was so simple as to be completely unsatisfying, so I ended up making it more complicated anyway.

it s a first attempt so i ll be generous, i don t like transformers much, but, the car s design showspromise, i really like the front and overall shape of the car! it does nt look like a trans am, but it s near impossible to accurately make one of this size that s recognizable, as to the robot part, it s very simple, but, still manage to look fairly good. overall very good job stuart!

No, I was born & bred in the UK I'm afraid... I obviously have an Aussie namesake. |

Why the bleep didn't _I_ think of that shoulder design? so obvious in hindsight.
Thanks very much! It did the job but a word of warning - those little robot arm clips aren't up to the strain. I broke 3 of them just transforming him. Next time I use that type of articulation I'll do it with more solid pieces. |

Nice job Stu - lets be honest, the original toy's robot forms often had little resemblance to the cartoon and articulation was an afterthought, so the fact you've improved on the original toy's transformation is great! My major complaint of transformers as they continued to be released was that they looked less like a real vehicle or a funky robot in either mode, so this is a pleasant rewind to those days of diecast and not all-plastic. I'm the wrong person to ask about vehicles as I don't often build them, especially 'real' ones, so it's made our MOC Os challenge quite interesting.... |

Very good for a first try! Regarding your comment about the back looking better than the front, I usually make it a point to have the studs facing forwards as much as possible in robot mode. This allows me to add more detail parts. Keep 'em coming! |

It's not easy to build a good LEGO transformer; but you did great on your first attempt, would like to see more transformers from you, well done. |

Very nicely done, ESPECIALLY for a first attempt! My suggestions would be to refine the torso and upper arms. Also, widen the waste a bit. Just remember, the more you build these, the better they'll look. |

I like the head arms and legs the body could be wider but otherwise if this is your first T-former attempt I say thumbs up! Let's see some more! |
