Cam, Your Local Toyhax Man

And lawd if he don’t know it

Ok still obsessed with Blokees Mirage so have a gallery

For those who don’t know, Clipees are magnetic mounts that turn Blokees Transformers into wearable accessories! I designed and make and sell em on Etsy! Link in bio

Happy to report:

Blokees Classic Class RotB Mirage is Clipee compatible!

I did punch the pin and remove the skirt piece before cutting it. I also replaced the pin with 2mm aluminum wire, which is softer, but you can make it too long and bend the ends to hold the hip skirts on!

Nailed it in one!

Look I loved SS86 Thundercracker before, but now? Damn near perfection. 👌🏻

Can you spot the mod?

Pretty much. I offered to buy it if just the spool or box were damaged, but they said it was just plain unsalvageable. Rip

So, bummer news
The filament I used for Samus’s beam cannon is hard to find now. I found one seller, and it was expensive, but they reached out and said, “we’re so sorry, but our remaining stock has been crushed.” So now I may need to pay double somewhere to continue this project.

My first Metroid game was Prime 2: Echoes, in grade school. I did not get very far bc the game terrified me.

Now as a seasoned Metroid veteran and big brave boy, I finally return to the game, only to realize OH, this was just THE SCARIEST ONE ANYWAY 💀

Thanks! It does the flower style opening, as well as the panels just expanding away from each other like in MP2: Echoes

Beam cannon progress: I ran out of dark teal filament! 🥲

(It’s CC3D Sage Green Silk PLA, btw, beautiful color. Same stuff I used for @sam-makes-toys.bsky.social’s Lugnut a couple years back!)

Personal project this week: Samus Aran’s beam cannon from Metroid Prime. At 1:2 scale it’ll theoretically be able to change between all 4 beam shapes by pushing buttons, plus an opening missile nozzle. Unfortunately it’s not hollow, but meh. I also want to design a display stand when I’m done!

“In the immortal words of He-Man, one shall stand, one shall fall.”
“Oh yeah?? Well in the words of Skeletor, Emperor of Destruction, why throw away your life so recklessly? Nyahh!!”

Unless the implication is that the lines we all know the Transformers to say, were coined by the Eternians first, millions of years ago, and the Cybertronians are actually quoting them. In which case, WILD.

MOTU x TF wave 2 comic.

The art is terrific. The writing, though… woof. Very pandering. In fact, by this story treatment’s own logic, everything the Eternians know of Cybertron was encapsulated en-route to Earth — so why quote events which happen millions of years later? Bonkers.

now that they're safely with @toygrind.bsky.social, i can finally show off my latest custom, who i dub actus prime. huge props to @camzilla51.bsky.social for his amazing work on the labels and for putting up with my bs

We think alike!

Stickers & Labels for Generations Perceptor (2025 Reprint) - Toyhax - Reprolabels Sticker & Label Upgrade Set for Generations Perceptor (2025 Reprint) – Toyhax – Reprolabels

Okay so, the toy came in, and the only mold difference I see is the core torso piece(s). The majority of the old set should still fit.

That said, this new toy does have its own dedicated sticker set available now. toyhax.com/for-studio-s...

Roger that

They do, don’t they! I need to snag me a copy.

Ah, I see. My copy is supposed to arrive soon, so I’ll be able to check, but you’re right to be cautious. There is a lot of retooling.

Sorry, which two Perceptor toys?

I would not know yet

I just reported the account 👍🏻

Uhhhh that’s weird! Doesn’t sound right to me, but I’d be speculating. Thanks for tagging me. I hope somebody hasn’t made a fake account before Toyhax could officially set one up.

Looks Hot!

@camzilla51.bsky.social giving ToyHax a shoutout for making this custom possible. Dark Hot Rod/Rodimus!
