X-Transbots MX-12B Monolith Transformation Sequence

Figure Note:
Stop-Motion Transformation of X-Transbots MX-12B Monolith. Nicely done set but the individual team members are just used as ornaments. The animators got pretty lazy with Menasor.

Support Note:
If you’re watching this on YouTube, you could have seen it last week at Locals.com!

Production Note: This was very tricky to manage because of its size. Check the livestream on Feb 3rd for some notes on transforming this thing.

Viewing Note:
If you want to follow along, I recommend skipping to the speed run and using the Chrome plugin called "Frame by Frame for YouTube". It turns your , and . keyboard keys into single-frame movement keys. Every step of the transformation is documented in the frames of the video, in what I consider to be the best sequence. With minimal rubbing and minimal parts-parking.
