Combiner Wars G2 Stunticon and Menasor Accessories!

The new G2 variants for the Combiner Wars Stunticons and Menasor are now available, for a very limited time!

All the previous Renderform items released for these figures are now available in G2 flavours.  Starting off with the deluxe Stunticon guns, this four pack features colors based on the original G2 prototype for each figure.  The Eliminator Rifle, for Motormaster and Menasor, are also available in three color options.  A vibrant green color, based on the original G2 prototype.  A vibrant purple, based on the G2 CW Motormaster color.  And a vibrant turquoise, color matched to the CW G2 Menasor hands and feet accessory.
Lastly, for those wanting a new head upgrade for their Menasor, the previously two Renderform heads are now available.  The RF-017 Road Shogun head, based on the original G1 Menasor toy, is available with red light piped eyes and two interchangeable faces, angry and rage.  Or, my personal favourite, the RF-018 Road Bandit head, based on the G1 Menasor cartoon design.  This also features red light piped eyes, and comes with two interchangeable faces, angry and rage.

All these new variants are only available for a very limited time, until March 31st.  They will then be discontinued.  If you are interested in the original Combiner Wars G1 style versions, those are still available, but will also be discontinued after March 31st.  Do not wait too long.  To help with a quick turn around, all Stunticon weapon accessories will be limited to 75 orders.  Both G2 Menasor head kits, will be limited to 30 orders.  Any orders after that will be placed on a waiting list.

RF-020 Thunder Struck Upgrade Kit

The RF-020 Thunder Struck upgrade kit allows you to convert Combiner Wars Battle Core Optimus Prime, into a modern version of Thunder Clash!  This limited edition kit features a brand new head sculpt with red light piped eyes, and one gold rifle, given an updated look.  A deluxe version of the kit is also available, with a second rifle.

This kit works best with Reprolabel’s Thunder Clash sticker set (sold separately), which really sets the look of the figure apart, from the stock figure, as seen in a photo below.  Please visit www.reprolabels.com to order the sticker set from their online store.

The first three runs of the Thunder Struck kit, have sold out.  You can now order the special convention edition, limited to 75 sets.

Alternatively, I have also made available the Hoverboard design through Shapeways, for those who may want to customize one themselves.  To help keep cost down, no markup has been added to the 3D printed Shapeways version.  This version also has not been tested, so please be prepared to sand and hand finish that version.

Open order update – November 20th, 2015

All open orders with the Combiner Wars Menasor head kits and Stunticon guns are shipped. Emails have been sent, along with any tracking numbers, if you went for that option. If you don’t see any emails, check your junk/spam folder, than contact me at questions@renderform.com, and I’ll get back to you withing 24 hours. Please include your paypal email address or 4 digit invoice number.

If you ordered the Menasor head kit(s), I’m working on a quick tutorial on the easiest method of popping them on the balljoint for the Menasor/Motormaster body. Due to the way the joint/post is designed, some people will have a hard time installing them. I found two ways that work. One just requires a certain “setup” with the figure, and the other requires a heat gun/hair dryer.

Also mentioned before, each of the Menasor heads have swappable faces now. Calm, Angry, Rage. For the RF-017 Road Shogun (G1 toy) head, the faces are easy to swap. However, for the RF-018 Road Bandit (G1 toon), it is a bit harder, if you don’t know the trick to it, which I’ll show. Each face has been checked with the heads they come with, and each Menasor head itself has been test fitted on the Motormaster/Menasor body’s balljoint, all to ensure the best quality possible, and help trouble shoot any problems you may encounter. I also pre-fitted the face that each person ordered, so you don’t have to swap it out to the one you wanted, to save you time.

RF-018 Road Bandit

RF-018 ROAD BANDIT upgrade head for Combiner Wars Menasor! ….WAIT, another one!? Yup, with the way Renderform products are made, a totally different head sculpt like this can be offered at the same time. Road Bandit is based on the original G1 Cartoon Menasor’s head. This head also will be available with two types of eye options, painted red or light piped red, as well as the three facial options. Calm, Angry, or Rage. As with the Road Shogun head, you will have to decide which version suits you the best. Road Bandit will also be $20.00, and be a limited run. Check the entire gallery for the different combinations.  You can preorder here now, in the Renderform store!

 

RF-017 Road Shogun

RF-017 – ROAD SHOGUN upgrade head for Combiner Wars Menasor! This is a G1 toy inspired head, given a more samurai styling. This head has 6 variants, based on eyes (painted or light piped) and three facial expression, Calm, Angry, and Rage. The options are not interchangeable, so you will have to order the combination you like best, as that will be how the head will be produced, due to parts needing to be glued. The price for each head will be $20.00. The photos show a prototype version. The final pieces will have the same finish all Renderform products have, and the faces will be more defined. Please check the entire gallery for all the combination options.  Preorders are now open, in the Renderform store!

RW-021 The Eliminator Rifle

Motormaster and Menasor won’t have to feel left out, as the RW-021 “The Eliminator” rifle brings a G1 updated gun for them to use! This gun is as long as the stock sword that comes with Motormaster. Available in G1 style purple, or black, these will be $20 each plus shipping for the first 48 hours once preorders go live! After that, the guns will be $25 each. As this gun is also in prototype stage, the final product will have the known Renderform finish and quality.

Combiner Wars Stunticon Guns

Need some fire power for your Combiner Wars Stunticons? Here is a look at my take on their original G1 guns, with a modern spin. Each gun features a 5mm peg, and works with any other figure that can support the peg. Breakdown and Dragstrip’s gun come in blue and purple, based on their G1 colors, or black, like Dead Ends and Wildrider/Offroad. The guns will come in a 4 pack set for $25 plus shipping, or you can buy them individually for $8 each. The designs shown are prototypes, and the final design will be modified and have the known Renderform finish and quality.  Final size for the guns will be between 70-80% of what is shown, based on feedback.  Preorder now, only here on Renderform.com!
