Introduction: Offical K'nex Transformer Instructable
This is an Actual Transformer Knex came out with 8 years ago and the instructions are still in tact. This is the ONLY transformer instructions i own and since I had it for so long i figured it would be cool to bring back one of the better Knex sets that came out.
Step 1: Steps 1 -17
Just follow the pictures
Step 2: Steps 18 - 35
Keep following pictures cant get easier than this
Step 3: Steps 36 - 51
Last parts of building this transformer
Step 4: Transforming the Truck
It an easy transformation and a build but like a lot Knex designs it has potential to be upgraded.
Step 5: Easy to Custamize
Before I had the ingenious idea to create transformers out of knex based on the movie toys I built this. But it wasn't good enough for me So i decided to use this design as a base model for my Optimus Prime that I created. These pictures are an evolution of my Optimus Prime.

I scanned the entire instruction booklet so I'm pretty sure this was the only model for the set, i guess cause it was a transformer it would be rather difficult to make a few models out of it.

there are other knex transformers, i know there was a plane and i think there was a car. They are extremely rare, however
