Ravage v2 Remix and error fixes!

This is a remix of the MaxSterling Ravage v2 transformer model available here https://www.printables.com/model/271993-ravage-decepticon-revision-2

I have repaired multiple issues with the original model, most pointedly the engaging locks are all incorrectly sized and shaped, the leg locking pins are originally useless, joint pins are sized incorrectly, magnet recesses are wildly oversized, and there is no function for attaching the body sides.

All head and tail locking keys have been corrected for proper fit and no longer slide around.

All joint pins are correctly sized for snug movement (will hold its own weight in most positions, can shim with a piece of tape for extra tightness in abnormal positions).

Magnet recesses are within .5mm for proper fit.

Leg locking pins have been removed from the body.  These were a horrible weak point, in that they are oriented in layer shear orientation and the slightest nudge on the legs would shear them off leaving the legs flopping.  In their place the body has had orienting holes added and separate pegs added that can be glued in place or just press-fit on the body side (loose fit on leg side for easy removal/repositioning).  By doing this the shearing effect is eliminated even when printed in layer-shear orientation.

Body alignment jigs have been added using the tape-reel holes so that you will be in perfect alignment when bonding the two halves. Note there was no facility at all for this before; I thought about adding locking keys like the tail and head, however given the large size of the halves I decided this was a better route as it prevents focusing glue only on the keys for a newbie. I recommend using glue in all areas where it is suitable without any squeeze-out risk, and clamping while it sets in at least two places.  Being PC, I chose Wurth ESK to bond, but standard CA glue would suffice especially if you are printing in PLA.

The missiles were a complete trainwreck, WAY undersized and required gluing to the model which effectively made it no longer a transformer.  They have been removed and from-scratch missiles are available separately.

Additional features added, trim and accent rings to reels shins, paws and face.

Note this model is approximately 8x11 in size, scaling down will likely make the trim and accent rings too small to print at some point.

Larger features on head and tail are pre-painted for convenience.

At print size you will need 30x3 magnets for the legs (29.5x2.75 nominal).  these should scale appropriately as long as you scale to standard magnet sizes. Magnets can be skipped if you are going to be fixing the legs in place permanently by gluing the leg locking pins on both sides etc.

Printed in primarily Ambrosia Black PC-CF and Ambrosia Dolos color shifting ASA in Titanium Anno (blue), using HIPS support material.  Trim is Ambrosia Orange ASA.  Tape “lens” is Bambu PC transparent black.

Missiles printed in Geetech Silver Silk PLA using PETG support material.  The file can be found here: https://makerworld.com/en/models/2497405-proper-missiles-for-ravage-transformer-model?from=search#profileId-2745015

This model REQUIRES normal support (no tree support) AND an interface material.
