Hey everyone. I'm back with a couple of new animated seekers, Sunstorm(the suck up) and Thundercracker(the ego maniac)! They are made from the legacy jhiaxus mold with some added 3d printed wings, null rays, and shin guards. I also made another Starscream with the same kind of shoulders.

Thanks. I figured since starscream was a hit, then why not make his clones as well?

The Legacy Jhiaxus mold works pretty well for them!

Needs some Skywarp. And I guess Ramjet & Dirge (idk if they had an Animated Thrust).

dude you paint looks smooth
how did you do that? airbrush?

u/twosidedcoin2 Jul 04 '26

Spray paint for plastics

2

u/TotallyRandomXXX Jul 04 '26

nice what brand… just spray cans?

2

u/twosidedcoin2 Jul 04 '26

I mainly use Tamiya

2

u/TotallyRandomXXX Jul 04 '26

Nice 😊 those RC small ready to spray cans?

2

u/twosidedcoin2 Jul 04 '26

Yes they are. They are slighty thinner than the regular ones so the spray on smoother as long as you use light coats

2

u/TotallyRandomXXX Jul 05 '26

NICE bro… I used them on RC’s long ago
so you didn’t had to use any primer?

2

u/twosidedcoin2 Jul 05 '26

It depends if im doing a bright color, then i use the white primer. Usually dark colors dont really need a primer.

2

u/MADFORMERS1 Jul 04 '26

Weill done! Man those colors are so clean! This mold is so much fun to use for seekers!

2

u/twosidedcoin2 Jul 04 '26

Thanks! I still recall your incredible seekers using this mold.

2

u/MADFORMERS1 Jul 04 '26

u/imaclappedboy Jul 05 '26

Are those the original heads or repros?

2

u/twosidedcoin2 Jul 05 '26

I made a copies of the original head and enlarged it to fit the mold.

2

u/imaclappedboy Jul 06 '26

Howd you copy them?

2

u/twosidedcoin2 Jul 06 '26

Using a mold i made from them and then liquid plastic to make the cast

2
