Hey All,

  I've uploaded anthother Transformers MOC - Trixie, Autobot scout. Goofy
name, I know, but what else do you call a girl-bot with three wheels?

  This one was tough to work out. I knew I wanted a smaller robot form this
time around, but that limited me to tiny vehicle modes like bikes and
go-karts and such. Luckily, I found my inspiration at 'Cils Page of
Transformers Junk (http://www.nervsys.net/~tabris/TF/), specifically with
Rushlight (http://www.nervsys.net/~tabris/TF/Rushlight-concept01.jpg), and
the bikebot challenge was on. While I knew I couldn't make a minifig-scale
trike look that cool, I loved the transformation and worked from there.

  Anyway, Trixie was the result:

  Until then, a few pics:

(...) Dang! You have got skill to make these. I can't make transforming stuff, I can't mentally visualize that stuff, so I am always impress to see transformers, especially ones that look good in both forms! t (22 years ago, 3-Mar-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Jeremiah, That's outstanding! I especially like the little trick you did with the stickshift element. I'm going to have to use that sometime. Bruce (22 years ago, 3-Mar-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Jeremiah- Hi. When I saw Bitstream I was amazed! (Wasn't posting yet.) As Bruce said, your Transformers are outstanding! I had seen some sculptural and robot-mode renditions before but creations like yours are rare. Well I was perusing .Mecha and I (...) (22 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
