Drink Trailer for Transformers Earthrise Optimus Prime 3D print model

Inspired by the similar trailer made for the Pepsi Prime back in the day, here's an updated version designed to fit Earthrise Optimus Prime and also made to be Cyber Base Tracks compatible!

Here it is hooked up to Optimus, pegging into the 5mm port on the back in his alt mode.

Due to the length of most bottles when placed on the bed, the trailer bed would need to be lengthened backwards. And this is done using the sliding hitch point.

Unhitching the trailer allows it to be used in standalone mode too. To allow it to stand properly, there is a stand part on the bottle which needs to be swiveled downwards.

However, depending on the weight and placement of a full drink bottle, having the kickstand in the middle may not cut it all the time. Hence, there are a bunch of 5mm ports to allow the stand to be moved forward more for even more stability.

This is even more important when it comes to placing cans on the trailer, for which this piece has been designed to do also, more for the thinner cans which are more common these days. But the traditional cans should also fit as they have the same base dimensions.

As usual, a bunch of 5mm ports and 3mm pegs have been designed into the piece for holding accessories or placing effect parts.

But that's not all! Coming to the rear end of the trailer - the taillights part (which are also 3mm pegs, by the way) can be removed, exposing a CyberTracks connector point where other CyberBase Track (https://funbiestudios.com/model-catalog#cyberbase-tracks) pieces or compatible Transformers can be connected on also.

The wheelbase where the lower wheels are connected also feature 4 exhaust ports, all conveniently sized for effect parts giving the option for extra blooooooshiness!

And to allow Prime's original trailer to also come along for the ride, the rear piece can be swapped for this connector piece.

The trailer can then can hooked on the back making for an extended trailer mode! Or should we say, the perfect party trailer mode! ;P

=== Assembly ===

The attached diagram shows all the parts in this set, and how they go together.

Should be a fairly simple assembly process, though just a small note on the tension clips pieces. These should be printed horizontally flat on your printer to give it the proper orientation strength to flex.

Phew, that turned out to be a longer post than expected to go through all the bells and whistles of this piece.

Hope everyone has fun 3d printing and putting together your own versions as much as we had getting it done too! =)
