What I didn't mention in the last month's blog, is that the Lutabots of February is about Sin-Dakk, the helicopter with a shuriken. And this month of March, we have another car in the shape of Dilim. One thing I noticed about the two is that their bios say they form the same limb which for me is quite confusing, and the other thing I found out is that Anino and Dilim makes up a nice symmetrical set of arms even though one has a removable canopy and the other doesn't have a roof. Sin-Dakk in the other hand, has a T-joint in which I'm assuming this will make the arm than the other two (if the resulting gestalt will need paperclips, then the two will probably form the arms).
On this blog, we'll be taking a close look at yet another Folda-Fan. This time, we'll be taking a look at some of the best creations of unokaizer (A.K.A. Reyneil John Sicat). I discover him when I was looking for more Foldabot patterns on DeviantArt (the best site for the Foldabots Fanverse), and found out that his patterns are quite nice, I decided to watch him (even though he seems to be inactive for the past months). Few of his great works include a series of Foldabots inspired by the Chinese Zodiac animals. He also made a rather nice customized Kalasag pattern in which the feet were fixed. Unfortunately, like the official Toy Book 5 release, he lacked a sleeve where you can fit the tab in to secure the Agimat spirits inside his shell. He also created the initial pattern of Gadya before it became the leader of the Zoobots.
Apart from the aforementioned, I'll be taking a close look at some his other works. Most likely his two gestalts with odd names like Prehistotron (I rather call him Jurassicus) and Takbotron (which probably was ripped of from Bahaghari, my Foldabots Mini original combiner). The former is basically the Lutabot equivalent of Saurotron, while the latter would probably based off that Porsche model cars from the initial series released almost simultaneously with the first series of LEGO Ferrari kits (which I don't have in full). I will be posting his patterns on this blog partly to promote his works, and partly to analyze the similarities between my works and his.
Oh, I almost forgot, Takbotron was created by another Folda-Fan named Harold Dave Baes. The individual members were Ayuno, Bilis (not to confuse with the Medibot with the same name), Enzo, Liksi (not to confuse with the other Bilis which I renamed after the name was reused), and Pas-Pas. The gestalt's foot parts are on its own pattern, would've been better if the foot parts are included with their respective members to save up on paper. It's also odd he included arm connectors even though it would probably result in a terrible way if you don't fix some of the parts.
