Alternate 15 from set 5867: Go Kart. Pretty much all racingdrivers start in go karts. There’s a good chance that you’ve tried one of those yourself. Due to their wide chassis and very low point of gravity, they are very stable on the circuit. Though they have small, often 1 cylinder engines, they still have […]
The classic SideSwipe transformer, based on the Lamborghini Countach. 2 types of models were already a while on the ‘to do’ list. A highly detailed 1:17 scale sportscar, based on a real vehicle and a transformer. So why not combining them both using the original SideSwipe as inspiration? With a lack of specific wheelarches and […]
A historic racer; alternate # 7 of Creator set 5867. Long before people were familiar with downforce and concerned about safety, drivers already risked their lives to race against each other. Racing cars back then looked more like bullets on wheels…
My 2nd alternate of Creator set 5867: a Classic car. Inspired by the American vehicles of the 60’s, in which cars were more of a status symbol than anything else. Not surprisingly cars turned out rather big with lots of cool little features, details and interesting colour combinations to make sure to draw the attention […]
Alternate #5 of Creator set 5867: Offroader. The classic boxy style of a Jeep, no nonsense, purely functional, without any unnecessary features. So no windows, no doors, no roof, just a rollbar, a winch and some spotlights for optimal visibility. Off roading in its purest sense, like it’s meant to be.
This Gran Tourer is alternate #10 of Creator set 5867. Different than most other iconic vehicles, GT cars are a bit different. Instead of just a few characteristic elements, with GT’s it’s about the overall package. Sleek lines, long bonnet for housing a big engine, and sporty aesthetics are just a few of the elements […]
This forklift is my 18th alternate from Creator set 5867. This is what happens when a brain starts to go creative; instead of some kind of sportscar you end up with a forklift. Apparently it just had to go like that, because once I moved toward the idea of a forklift, every element I added […]
This vintage car is my 17th alternate model built from Creator set 5867 Super Speedster. Can we squeeze out more alternates from this versatile set? Well, here’s another one; a vintage car, heavily inspired by the Morgan. Characteristics are long nose and curved rear end.
Alternate 20 of set 5867. What would 8292 look like if you only have set 5867 to work with. The colours that come in the set are excellent for making some kind of fire and rescue truck. However the problem is that there is a lot of surface to cover, which made me very doubtful […]
