Transformer Inferno MOC - a photo on Flickriver

Follow me on Instagram.

This is my review of the Transformer Autobot Inferno MOC aka Firechief by Alex Jones, build with Webrick parts.

Total points = [91/100] 👌

I assume most of you will recognize this Generation 1 ("G1") Transformer Inferno, but especially people like me who grew up in the 1980s 😊.

You would think this could never work, so much details and moving parts in a relatively small build, but Alex has done it! This is where you see his background as a toy designer and being a Lego Master Germany winner.

If there would be something to complain, it would be the weak mid-section and some of the older and more expensive parts. Still, it holds up well in standing position and the ladder helps to balance the MOC, and but for many of the older parts, you can find a cheaper Lego alternatives.

About Webrick:

Webrick is offering a bricks service for MOC builders. You upload the part list via their website and you instantly get the % of available bricks and their cost.

In the case of the Firechief, 16 parts were not available. I looked them up on BL or my own inventory. This makes a +96% hit rate on part list.

They mainly use GoBricks parts. The pieces are really good, super color consistency and only few scratches.

I hope you like the review and let me know what you think!
