[英语课(×)]听孩之宝设计师Mark Maher说:传世(Legacy)曲轴箱开发幕后
当我看到电影系(SS)曲轴箱的出现时,我就想到要更新这个家伙(的玩具)。

我也确实很喜欢他在IDW漫画中的形象,不过我还是觉得相比漫画里脑子缺一块的头部造型,玩具头应该更受欢迎。

在与Takara的Shu(推测应该是梅津周平,Shuhei Umezu,近期代表作包括SS86阿尔茜和SS核心级DOTM激光鸟)先生一同合作制作了传世(Legacy)刹车(Skids)模具(在本产品上的新规)部分,我们来回讨论过很多关于肩炮的问题。

让爆能枪与手枪兼容也确实是一个挑战,我们还希望在隐藏爆能枪的情况下保持alt模式的干净。从而最终的成品是一个妥协,因为我真的想要这个角色。

我甚至有有过一次尝试,在侧挡泥板隔间添加一根5毫米(接口)的可拆卸长块,作为前格栅爆能枪的额外弹匣,但由于这(个零件设计会占用到)部分模具(的板件分布空间),我们尽了最大努力,在仅有的成本范围内实现了角色(可以向人展示的)最好的样子。



还有一点,(这款产品)格栅后面的银色涂装被删去,以利用这些漆料在后备胎上实现双色移印。

I hope everyone enjoyed watching this afternoon’s livestream, it felt great to finally show off Legacy Deluxe Crankcase!
When I saw the appearance of the Movieverse Crankcase I just had to find a way to release an update of this guy. I did love his appearance in the @idwpublishing but I felt the toy head would be the go instead of the halfway blown apart head like the comics.
Worked with Shu san in Takara on this partial of Legacy Skids mold and we went back and forth an awful lot about the trigger blasters. It was really challenging to fit the blasters with a blast compatibility and we are also wanted to keep the alt mode clean with the blasters hidden. It was a compromise in the end as I really wanted this character. I even had a rendition where the side fender compartments came off on a 5mm post to be added as ammo for the front grill blaster, but since this was a partial mold, we did our best to do the character justice within the cost alotted.
To note the silver op behind the grill was stripped to utilize those ops for the cool two tone decal on the back spare tire.
I will post some more in my story for a feature tidbit on this guy and I hope you really enjoy him!
