With all the Glyocity talk and teaser images going on over at the Glyos blog, I decided to quit playing it safe with my vinyl Glyos stuff and just go for broke. The EMD Behemoth is the result of this:
"The EMD Behemoth is a variation of the Rig Squadron's 'Big Rig' but is used more as a heavily armored transport vehicle that can carry at least 6 glyans into battle. It can reconfigure itself into a battle outpost and into a Power-Arm Rig that uses it's twin Phase Blockers to knock back enemies 100 feet away. Gorrrg the Hunter serves as the strong-man for the EMD unit and drives the Behemoth when not on his Rig Hopper."
Cane: "Now the Genedrone revolution won't know what hit them."

I'm excited about the Glyocity parts coming out, they certainly sound like pieces that can expand what I've built here. Awesome stuff. :-D

Very cool! I have a question about the circles on the bottom of the Rig's feet--those looked to me like they were a bit smaller than the circles on the Block--do I need to measure and cut more than the circle, or will the parts peg in properly even though the circle is smaller?
ReplyDeleteI saw that too and was hesitant to try cutting into it, but figured what the heck as the bottoms of the feet don't get seen as much. I followed Matt's advice on customizing the vinyl parts by taking the whole leg section of the Rig, heating it up under a lamp until it's soft and then cutting into it with a really sharp exacto knife. Then, while it was still soft, I just pegged in my parts & it fit fine. The fit is a little snug but better too snug then too loose. Hope that helps answer your question?
DeleteThat is a huge help, thank you!
DeleteI've already cut my blocks, and now that I have the benefit of your insight, I'm ready to cut into one of my Rigs. Thanks again!
BTW, in my haste to ask you my customizing question, I forgot to mention the Battle Outpost Mode that you came up with is awesome!
That looks great! Awesome to see all the parts being used in different ways. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Seraph, all the Glyocity talk on the blog just got me in the creative mood to try and make something withe the vinyl parts I had on hand. I might disassemble it later on, but that's the cool part about Glyos: if you take it apart, you can always re-assemble it. :D
