May I have your attention, please!  There will be an addition to my family - that is, my 'family' of Transformers costumes - coming this April 20th.  

Usually I prefer to keep my projects a secret until unveiling them at a convention but this one is a little different.  I'm in my final year of university and I've got a thesis project to do.  No, I don't have to write a 100+ page dissertation, I get to do something awesome because I'm in Theatre Production   That 'something awesome' will be my 5th Transformer costume to date.

What is it?  I'll tell you.

A DeLorean.

That lights up.

Is sound capable.

And transforms.

It will be an original character of sorts, though I could have gone with Micromasters Swindler since he is a DeLorean.  (but I didn't even know he existed until after I sketched up my designs).  The hardest part so far has been figuring out what part goes where in order to suit how bendy I am.  It's not like I can rotate 180 degrees at the waist   It's a work in progress as I type so I'd better get back to work.  I'd keep an updated journal of the build progress but I simply don't have the time.  You'll just have to wait.  No cheating by using a time machine!
