DreamStar Toys DST001 Encourager Transformation Sequence
Фильм және анимация
Figure Note:
Stop-Motion Transformation of DreamStar Toys DST001 Encourager. Gorgeous but flawed. On my final transformation run back to combined mode, one of the hips on the torso finally caught up with all the complaints I’ve seen about that figure: It broke off. I tried gluing it with epoxy, but it wouldn’t hold. So I held the joint together, drilled a pilot hole at a 45 degree angle and put in a screw. So that guy is permanently in torso mode now. If I can’t get replacement parts that’s not the end of the world since that guy is definitely the most unpleasant to transform.

Production Note: I decided not to give away the big finish, so I didn’t put a schematic at the beginning. I’ve noticed that when I fill the turntable for a group 360, it whips by at the edges a bit too fast, so this time I shot the robots 360 using 288 pictures instead of 144. Hopefully that looks better. I shot the 360’s over a few days since it takes so long to transform them all. If you notice a little notch cut out during the team 360 (bottom edge, to the right of center) it’s because I got my fool thumb up into frame while turning the turntable.

Perfect. Toys are meant to be played with. It is that time, effort, and thought you put into the transformation that you all remember for ever. Trophies should be earned.(Kinda like defeating the Atma weapons in final fantasy 7 for the 1st time. Only that kind of trophy won't go on a shelf. Supirium will:)
Combined mode is obviously gorgeous but making all the Arialbots the same monochrome silver was certainly... *a* choice. I don't know about anyone else but I can't tell 4/5 of these guys apart. Silverbolt stands out, partially due to his altmode, and partially because he's the only member of the team who doesn't have the same "cocky hotshot" personality, but then his name is probably better associated with the beast wars character... Either way, fantastic work as always!

I agree, making them the same color wasn't a bad idea, but wasn't a good one either. But at the same time I kinda like it even though they could've probably done a slightly different color scheme to tell the four aerial bots apart. However I love their sleek design

F15 has 2 tail fins F-16 has 1 fin split in 2 directions Concorde (I think) is silverbolt Harrier has semi circular intakes F-4 has curved rectangular intakes You can tell the robot modes by the nose cones. F-16 has the largest and spikiest Silverbolt you know Harrier intakes are on the shoulders F-4 has a little blue on the body. I wish they had more red and more blue in their robot modes. Perhaps we can get a recolor unless the company doesn’t sell well.

100% for sure that they will release it with g1 colour, and i don't know , the project is mainly for a "movie" superion and a non "so real" colouring could ruin the figure, but let's see. Le'ts see also their devastator, if they go for the classic "green+purple" or will do again an "iron giant" wit different shape.

If you know combat jets, it's not difficult... but I agree that making them all the same set of colours with out any clear distinctions was a strange way to go especially in robot modes. Still the overall effect is undeniably stunning in all three modes but the pay off for the colour choice is the uniform gestalt mode. I especially appreciate the use of the tow trucks to make the feet... very nice.
Outstanding compilation and combination feature! I will say that, Q/C issues aside, I think the the extreme redesigns and transformation reworks highlight a prominent issue with the original aerial bots: they don't have terribly interesting designs. Take away all the elaborate linkages and panels and you're still just folding back the wings and pinning each character's nosecone on their back. I think an actual radical aerial bot redesign should be a re-imagining of their transformation that gives them more distinct silhouettes and uses jet parts more creatively.

Better buy three sets of this. One set for robot mode, one set for alt. mode, and the last one for Superion, the combined mode. I cannot imagine transforming these from robot to plane to robot again and vice versa. Hahahaaa.... Of course, there's always a question of budget and worthiness.

And these had stand/holders that look like trucks, that goes to the feet. Are there other combiners with transforming extensions like these? Or did Cang start a trend?
@peolesdru
Ай бұрын
@@reintype I don't have all combiners, but Cang is the first one I can think of where the feet were also team members. It's a smart way to do things. With MMC's All-Built-In Bruticus, the all-built-in feet were a bit small - so MMC released an upgrade set that bulked the feet up - but those turned into simple boxes. With this set those trucks are supposed to look like those airport trucks that tow planes around, but unlike Cang's feet they don't have a robot mode. Cang is really cool because even the hands have an animal mode (they combine to form a crab). I would guess that the feet on their Dinobot combiner will probably be velociraptors or something.

My Silverbolt had an issue early on where one of the robot feet broke off. I got that replaced by ShowZ. During this run as I was transforming him back to torso mode I encountered the dreaded hip failure (hips on the combiner, shoulder of the robot) so now that joint is permanently in combined mode.
