Isn't this exactly how the guy on the TFW2005 boards did it? I can't remember his name but I know cos I bought it from him. Wheeljack?

[kelvinchang99]

Possibly.. but I dont own one from Wheeljaxx so I have no idea. I went off 1 of his pic which was a completed one and worked out the rest. Anyway, hope this is useful.

I would say don't post this kind of thing cause it's technically the guy's original idea...

[kelvinchang99]

Hmm.. This is really interesting how you guys have approached this. Thats fine. I have removed all instructions. Though I think its hardly his claim as I said, apart from seeing pics of his completed one, I have had no help from the guy but its interesting how the board has taken this.

lcz128, so you reckon the million Devastator out there, it all goes back to 1 customiser who did the first one and every other variation doesnt count. Not sure if you guys remember, he uses Astrotrain for the feet and I am using complete different figures. Its just the top that has similarities.

Oh well.

I see no problem with this. Its not like KC99 has claimed he came up with it entirely of his own accord, and he's only provided details on what he's been able to work out based on what he sees. He's providing help, not claiming credit. And its not like its official anyway.

sorry about the delay.....life's still a mess for me

Unless you personally had an arrangement with WJP, I don't see any reason why you can't post whatever you want KC99. And if you did have an arrangement with WJP, I would find it pretty dubious that someone would claim IP ownership of how to connect two toys that are the IP of other entities.

We all stand on the shoulders of others. Sharing information helps all.

*IP = Intellectual Property

I don't think that he could claim intellectual property ownership if he wanted to anyway - the intellectual property (including likeness) is property of Takara(TOMY) Co., Ltd and Hasbro Inc. I think as a matter of courtesy it would be good to simply mentioned that you were inspired by WJP.

O well
