(Had a change of plans with how I was going to post this - having them all posted together would end up having the 'story' go backwards - so now I'll have each in its own posting, and unlock the topic at the end for anyone to post comments, if they want.)

I thought this was hilarious and I really enjoyed looking how it progressed! Thanks for the fun :D

Thanks guys - I'm glad people enjoyed it. I thought it would be a bit of fun, to do and watch as it progressed. I wanted to add in 'special effects' like goktimus does, but they cover up too much of the image and toys, so left it with just speech bubbles.


I have to ask... did you take all the photos in one sitting, or leave everything out for several days?

I was planning to do them all in one day, but after doing the first 5, it just got too time consuming, so did one each day after that. I did plan out beforehand the characters, the different toys of each character, and what most of the speech bubbles would say. So yes, all those toys have been out for about 2 weeks, and will probably take a few days to get around to putting them all back.


Ahahah, good work Griff. I liked that. I liked the little guy taking off with max's head:D

That was actually something I only thought about doing half-way into the project, so turned out well.


Must have taken a fair while to transform them all... :D

I probably wouldn't have done it if I didn't have my collection displayed in robot mode. And even still, the Optimus one required transforming them all into truck mode, and back again.

And you have no idea how difficult it is to narrow down a selection of characters like Optimus and Megatron, from all the ones so far released. Picking 12 Oppys might seem like a lot, but from about 3 dozen, it was really hard. And I still missed out on including BW Primal, because I ended up picking Oppys that had the classic red, grey and blue colouring of Gen1 Optimus. Gorilla Primal was going to be rolled up into a ball, as part of the rest of the 'rolling' convoy.

*nods* I know the feeling. Whenever I step outside the house one of the most time-consuming rituals isn't getting dressed or putting my shoes on - it's picking which TF toy I want to take with me!

That was clever. And it seems that Action Masters Prowl could do with some peroxide. :) And a very merry Christmas and happy new year back to... um... Griffin's Transfomers.
