Figure Note:
Stop-Motion Transformation of Takara Tomy MPG-15 Masterpiece Rattrap. Alert observers will detect a small amount of kibble. Jokes aside, it’s otherwise a very nice figure. Takara always does a good job with fit and finish. It’s nice when the animal alt-mode actually has articulation. For some reason the official name on the box/instructions is “Rattle” but I made the editorial decision to just call him Rattrap.

Rat to Robot: 0:09
Robot to Rat: 0:49
Speed run to Robot: 1:28
Speed run to Rat: 1:44
2x Run: 1:59
End credits: 2:14
Production Note: 499 photos. 1.5 hour shoot.
Viewing Note:
If you want to follow along, I recommend skipping to the speed run and using your , and . keyboard keys to advance by single frames. Every step of the transformation is documented in the frames of the video, in what I consider to be the best sequence. With minimal rubbing and minimal parts-parking.
