Big Rascal Tomy robot project

[moffeaton]

I have put my recent Rhino learning to good use, scaling up the Tomy Rascal Robot I loved as a kid, to fit a 6" Plastruct dome (I need to buy a clear one - I just have a grey one at the moment). Here's where I am today. That front body half took 45 hours to print - started the back half this morning!

I remember these, I actually got one (not sure what version) that had a remote that made him move around and close his arms to pick stuff up. Most of the Tomy robots used alot of the same parts though. I wish i'd kept it but much like Transformers and GI joe, and yes even my B-Wing it fell to me being curious and not so handy with a screw driver lol

Have you decided on a name yet?

TOBOR or LACSAR, or YMOT?

Hey you never finished out this thread! (I realize you did put a lot more on fb...)
Just started cleaning up mine. (I received the kit "only" 17 months ago, which is a record-breaking fast start for me; they usually sit several years before I touch them!)

That is awesome!

It's great to see the robots from our youth being brought back!
