TT's TF repair

Post by Time Traveller »

Hey all, I've long been considering going into business repairing Transformers, since I know noone else who does so. I've been repairing secondhand Transformers in my collection for years, swapping parts off of duplicates, repairing breakages, electronics, etc. Today, I decided to light into two broken G1 Galvatrons. It was the standard part swap case until i realised that the nicer body shell contained the broken electronics. So again I came to the eternal conundrum. How the heck do you open his body shell? Well, here's another reason I rock.

Hey Galvatron, I can fix your electronics!

So. If anyone has any broken transformers, email me, I may be able to provide the parts and service you need. I could also do thorough cleanings, and loose joint tune-ups. PM or email me if your interested, and if you've any comments to share here, I'd appreciate it!

Hey that's great TT! You can repair my electronics.
I will try to remember that the next time I blow a fuse or one of my wires snap.
I've been going pretty heavy on the energon-cubes lately.

A repair shop is a great idea.
My Decepticon companions have been damaged by the crummy Auto-butts.
Shockwave has a broken waste plate.
Soundwave can't even stand up on his own anymore.
Skywarp just falls to pieces whenever I look at him. His wings always drop and his missiles fall out.
The turret on Brawl is broken off.
Reflector has a broken arm.
and the Constructicons can barely hold themselves together while merged into Devastator.

But that's not all, I have done some damage to those weak good do-ers.
Omega Supreme don't walk or roll around. I disected him to see what made him tick.
When I put him back together again, I had a few extra pieces.
( i guess that's why i never decided to open a repair shop)
Bumblebee is nearly dead, with a broken head and he won't stand on his own either.

That's about all I got for now, until the next battle.

They make repair kits for omega's electronics. loose joints can be tightened, and if you have all the parts for the brokens, they too can be repaired. and soundwave is frequently guilty of trying to sit down on the job. Actually, right now i'm working on swapping a good speaker into my Galvatron.

Nice try TT but that won't be necessary.
The broken piece is the round gray end of (the center guy's) arm.
With the piece broken off, his arm falls off easily.
I simply used some duct tape and fixed the problem. You can hardly notice the useage of duct tape. I use duct tape for everything.
