Transformers G1 Panther (Ravage) Microcassette

Model Overview & Print Notes

Updated the hole size and made the back feet more firm. Also named all components in the .3mf file to make things easier. This is the kind of toy I would fidget with when I was a kid. A little Transformers Micro-cassette.  While it does have many parts, it’s decently robust once made; suitable to keep in your pocket. Fits inside a G1 Soundwave :) Printing at 0.15mm layer height is okay.  Support is needed for this one…and fine tipped tweezers to remove those supports. Or use disolvable support and a toothbrush. To get better detail of the letters, I suggest using a 0.25mm nozzle. The model is put together with size #1 - ¼" wood screws. The four leg/knee screws need to be cut flush after installing. I used an old pair of flush-cut pliers that I didn't mind dulling. I started the prototypes in single color and they don't look half bad, so if you don't have an mmu or multiple extruders, no worries; this model may still be for you. I bought a MMU2S specifically for this model. Mainily for the ability to use water disolvable support. The colors are all on the bottom layer so the non-mmu manual color change technique is possible with this one, but traditional support leaves the thighs a little rough on one side.
