Transforming From Fearsome Monsters To Monstructor Babies
Monstructor is one of the hardest combiner sets to complete from the US releases of the Generation 1 line. Each Micromaster robot came with a Pretender shell, a combiner part and other assorted weaponry. So when I finally got a set, the first thing that I did was pair it with Fisher Price toys shaped like dinosaurs. Putting the two concepts together, we get “Monstructor Babies“.
You can practically hear the “Muppet Babies” theme song, can’t you? Aiden had a set of “Little People” dinosaurs that came with a Baby Dinoland play set, and I thought that they looked a lot like the rubbery shells for Monstructor. Replacing the scary-looking monster shells with cutesie baby dinos made a pretty funny picture. I defy you to look at Scowl’s hair and not laugh!
The fearsome Decepticon Monster Pretenders had to wait a long time for their outer shells to mature. In the meantime, they made due with infantile Baby shells. Thus brings us to the tales of… Monstructor Babies!
I originally posted this to Flickr a while back, and it’s gotten a lot of traffic there. The next few weeks brought regular installments of “Monstructor Mondays“, when I would post a new Monster Pretender. I had half-expected to return to the Monstructor Babies concept and do some photo comics for them, but who has the time for that? Maybe later, when the kids are older!
