Just a build thread showing my process from initial idea to physical realization. For the first post, an image of my "blue print" sketch 20180514_110758.jpg
 
Number Five alive, living, continue, survive! I love this little guy infact he's a major influence on my Character Plokman a robot struck by lightning and gaining true life. The two movies were awesome I look forward to seeing how you build him. Maybe I'll be able to use yours as a guide to make my own.

Johnny Five how do you feel?

Johnny: I feel alive!

Of speaking of Johnny I have some photos of a 1:1 scale replica that really shows the details off if you'd like to I can send them or post them the site they were on is kind of kaput but I saved em long before that.

Thanks I appreciate it. Ive already completed the model based on the toy version rather than the full size robot. Ill be showing everything as i go. In the meantime here is a render of the head & upper body :)

I always wondered what the heck he was saying with that line. What are nernies?

Cool model. Great movie!

Hahahaa I still have no idea. :D To me so I can recall Johnny in my IP work for Plokman Misadventures I have made them into chocolate snacks like you might see in a movie theater lobby. It seems appropriate with his referential mindset and all. :lol


So now the eternal question in a snack line isn't "Goobers or Raisinnets" it's "Goobers or Nernies" after pondering this and getting slammed with a purse by the lady behind me so I fly painfully to my seat I must say "I guess I'll never know the Eternal answer."

I hope that reference was gotten I have many and not all are from the 80s, 90s or 00s and some are just plain obscure. I hope in that I am among friends. By the SRS crew the greatest bunch of goof balls a man could hope to call friends I am known as Plokman "the Referenceman". I take pride in the title even if my friends gave it in a jest. I'm a nerd and Trivia junky to the end.

You know I would even say I'm like a younger Scott McNeil anyone who says "You people are insane... I found my Tribe!" about the Transformers fandom is just the right kind of Nuts we need more of in the world. Holy Crap I just realized Scott was born about the same time my day was give or take a month or two. My poppa is the same age as Rattrap and Waspinator! Epic times a billion!

Ok this is amazing and funnily enough something I plan to do with a 3D printed model of Glitch from Metal Arms: Glitch in the System. Hmm my friend would you mind if I run something by you in a PM? It's a idea involving Johnny 5 and some of my projects.

Awesome my friend I'll write you first thing tomorrow. I've felt like I have a cold coming on. I know it's not the sawdust now since my dad got me masks but I feel like Jonny must of after the Radio Shack.

Ko Derf.

It's Fred.

That's what I said Derf.
