Go ahead and post up what you have that I haven't already redone here. That'll work and give other people a chance to get the missing ones as well.

As for the 'fan' series, I'm either going to be dropping support for them, or repurposing them into other 'official' characters. Saves me a lot of hassle that way.

Note: Jolt is a repurposing of the old Smokescreen model (minus the rally deco), based more on the movie character.
Note: Tuner is based on the Million Exclusive version of Skids, with movie Skid's bio.
Note: Screech is based on the Million Exclusive, with movie Mudflap's bio.

Just a note for the future, if I've already replaced a Paperformer set higher in the thread, please don't bother to put up the old versions again. That'll just be confusing (to me as well, since I'm still in the organization pass on everything).

I think so. It's a 'fan character' belonging to the guy listed in the front page. If I remember right, it was indeed 'Wheelie with the Matrix' as a joke on Allspark.

Note: Shadow Striker is the old Artemis Fan-Character design, updated and repurposed.

Ricochet was going to have a Targetmaster (Nightstick), but I thought they were far, far too small. There's only one complex joint in them, but it's a very small one... We'll see. This week I'm learning Adobe Fireworks, so the updates are going to be a little slow. I'm only planning on one new design this week... with the rest being more redeco filler.

Note: Drift is a repurposing and slight edit of the older Fan Paperformer "ER".
Note: Carjack is based on Armada Wheeljack
Note: Blackjack is based on the WOTC version

Was there a Soundwave paperformer? If so I'd love tohave it. I love building these things.

nav · Post by **nav** » Wed Jan 13, 2010 7:44 pm

Yes I've found it:

Thanks

And I'm in serious need of help for Ultra Magnus's trailer. I can't for the life of me work out how the pieces fit together. And there's no reference to the mid-ramp piece in the uber-vague instructions. Not to criticise them, because I have like 10 paperformers built and working. I really need at least a picture guide because I love combiners and this is the only paperformer one AFAIK.
And I know there was a Ratchet paperformer as well. I'd love to repaint it into Movie ratchet.

For the picture guide, you can send it to pielighter@hotmail.co.uk if you can't attach it here.

Yep, Soundwave is actually one of the oldest of them, and one of the ones most in need of updating. He's on the short list for that, actually, so he and Blaster should have new versions in near future - but I can't promise exactly when.

Note: Towline is a repurposing and minor edit of the old Fan Character "Revamp".

Hey TFVanguard I've recoloured rodimus to prime nova,however I can edit the head properly .Do you think you can do something?

But I can't upload it here ,It's too big.

Wow, never knew there was a Starscream paperformer!!
Anything about a picture guide for Ultra Magnus?

No. I'm not going to be using other people's work and claim it as my own. The Metroplex I have is already very different and nearly done.. but the effort in putting into a computer-format (rather than hand-drawn) is still a pretty big one. There are other characters in the queue that are closer to done and will be put up first, so you'll need to be patient a bit longer for my 'official' one.

OK, for Ultra Magnus I have the cab part complete. But I absolutely cannot work out how the chest pieces or anything goes together on the trailer part. The instructions don't mention the mid-ramp piece either. I'm desperate to get this finished as it is just taking up space on my desk. The instructions say to glue a piece somewhere but they don't say which way round they have to go (well, they sometimes do:)).

But I'm really having a hard time with this. Have any of these paper beauties ever actually been built by the designer? If so, could I please at the very least have a few pictures of the trailer in trailer mode and robot mode (without cab Ultra Magnus combined). I'm sure the designer (is it TFVanguard?) would know how these go together or even built them before going on the internet.

As I said, I'm deperate to get this finished and I can't without some form of picture help.
Thanks in advance.
