I've had a copy your Race Car Robot for a little while now, and I wanted to compliment on what a great job you did on it! This thing is awesome, that it is true minifig scale, and even fits a whole figure/driver! I especially love that it uses the original Kreo robot head. (Although I've never been able to locate an appropriately sized autobot insignia yet)
I've wondered though, why you haven't done any other different ones? There's a certain red semi truck/robot that I think might be really interesting to see get made with your mastery of Lego building ;) |

I just realized that I never dropped the silhouette teaser here last week - my bad. Oh well, you guys jump straight to the full color teaser. Preorder coming soon. Stay tuned for info on an all-in package, and maybe even a couple of thematically-similar sets coming out of retirement briefly for this preorder!

Thanks for your kind words on this set. I have been making Transformers out of Legos since 84 - early ones were very rudimentary, but have evolved over the years. Before I got the Joe stuff going, I DID try to offer some of my TFs models for sale, but they fell flat. Apparently, there was not much of a market for a transforming robot toy made out of bricks - people were happy with their actual Transformers, and the primary reason TFs Kreo sets were successful at all were because people wanted to collect the Kreons. At least, that was MY observation.
So yes, I do have other models besides this one, but this is the only one that got far enough as getting the pro photography and a place in the store, but honestly, I can count on my hand the number of copies I've sold in the last five years, compared to the Joe stuff, which continues to move. I do have a rather nice Optimus Prime model that I retain a desire to get "out there" eventually (though he needs a little work in a couple of areas), so that may happen eventually. At the very least, I may sell the instructions for it. I also have things like a "Cybertronian" Jazz - mimicking his look from the very first episode of the cartoon. Another possibility is to do some original characters/designs - maybe that will be more appealing to people rather than having, say, a Lego bumblebee in addition to the multiple Bumblebee toys they already have. One last thing on this subject: the Race Car Robot makes a great stand-in for Mirage in your Masterpiece collection until an official one comes out; he's the right scale in both modes! Thanks again for bringing this subject up! Quote:

Thanks for keeping your custom line going! I just made a big order to catch up on a bunch of stuff tonight. Very nice to have these to look forward to.
Between my custom Kreons and your custom sets, my Kreo collection rivals my ARAH and Modern Era stuff. LOL.
