I kind of like the thought that Excalumber and Camelog might not be the quickest on the up tick, so when they scanned a logging truck, the didn't realize at first that the logs were separate and just ended up incorporating them into the alt mode.
Considering the wooden sword, I’m going just head canon that Excalumber just magically grows in power depending on how much he believes in his fantasy, like he’s a transformer just roleplaying a knight and the more he believes it the more inexplicably powerful he gets. (Based on Arthur from Fire Force)
I love the dynamic between these two, like you said there is so much story potential baked into these designs, like, Camelog's alt mode makes him dependant on Excalumber and therefore he would try to prove himself more often.
These two feel/come off as having the Inspector Gadget dynamic. The Knight is a bumbling idiot who's full of himself and is easily tunnel visioned. But he is trying to do the right thing. The Squire is the smart one actually solving the problems and when their brains can't solve the issue. They know the Knight can use their muscle to solve the issue.
@@themidknightmando3219 Not really. A sires gets to do all the cool knightly stuff while a squire just gets to carry his sire's stuff. Not very fatherly if you ask me.
Kids on the weekend: "Yay no school!" Me on the weekend: "A new video from Student Scissors!" Joke aside it has been build after build lately and they are all well detailed and amazing to watch. Keep up the good work.
love them so much, got to enjoy a chonky murder bot of honor and can see them buying a helmet to wear over a generic-looking droid/mono-eye head, anyone else chuckle like a madman at the pun names
I like to think that Excalumber is like Don Quixote and Camelog is both his squire and personal wrangler. They go on adventures, but accidentally cause destruction and chaos wherever they go. They're neither autobots nor decepticons. Maybe they're one of the ancient knights from The Last Knight if TLK wasn't hot garbage.
That would actually be insanely cool! Someone else commented that he should have a steed, and this one image of Don Quixote riding on an incredibly disproportionate Rocinante immediately popped into my head. I think it would work well with Excalumber too considering his tiny legs!
I've shared your videos before because the intersection of Transformers and Lego is exactly where my personality falls. I shared it today specifically because you changed your channel icon for pride. just that made a few of my friends happy to see.
I think your designs get at the heart of transformers better than anything released by hasbro in recent years. Just simple, unique characters with fun transformations and a lot of personality inherent to their design. I see these designs and I immediately think up character dynamics and stories they could fit into, just like the original marvel comics writers had to do when they had a box full of Japanese robot toys dropped on their desk and were told "write a story with these". keep up the good work!
Nice puns! 😂👍 Both of these guys look super fun in either mode and I love that the lumber actually forms accessories. That's amazingly clever and very inventive.
Must be a hell of a party when Excalumber/Camelog, Magnus, and Prime get together. I can imagine them all hitting the open road in alt modes pulling their respective trailers and blasting CW McCall's Convoy
I've only found you recently but the talent and skill you have with creating these things in next level to me. Easy subscribe and I can't wait to spend the day sifting through your old videos to watch.
Love this idea, having worked in forestry for some years it’s so cool to see the idea of Transformers from that industry. I think if there was a way that you could incorporate a log grab into the build, possibly to be used as a weapon or whole arm, would be wicked cool!
That's the best night transformer ever (probably cause never seen eny other lol) the vehicle mode is awsome especially the trailer turning into a robot as well 😎 👇
this is great! i love how u always try unique vehicles and robot modes with interesting proportions rather than a stock standard vehicle turning into the classic robot.
I can already imagine these two bumbling about in a Don Quixote style adventure while some major battle between the autobots and decepticons happens in the background, eventually culminating in the two of them accidentally saving the day somehow
I honestly think a logging truck would be a great alt mode for Rodimus Prime. Imagine in a moment of desperation, our Autobot protagonists go to Alaska because one of them knows someone there who can help them. Looking around different truck stops and diners, they spot an old logging truck with a faded red and orange flame design and the words "HOT ROD" still barely legible. They try to coax the truck into revealing itself but it speeds away. Eventually they're able to corner it and force Rodimus to reveal himself. He's still very mad about some past event and says that he is no longer a Prime and no longer an Autobot. He wishes them luck, but refuses to join them until of course changing his mind later. In the third act, we see him absolutely decimating the bad guys with logs because they underestimated how much damage organic matter can do to living metal. We would also see him pull out his Cybertronian weapons which he had hidden in the trailer he insisted was only for logging.
The squire reminds me of that sailor on Family Guy with all "peg" limbs. And you're right, he does look like he's carrying a comically oversized backpack on behalf of the knight. This is a great set, one of your best!
I love some of the speculative characterizations here in the comment section, but ever since I saw Camalog, I couldn't help but envision King Arthur from 'Monty Python and the Holy Grail' and his trusty squire who holds his bags, bangs coconuts together, and when struck by an arrow exclaims, "message for you, suh!"
Ingenious! If Hasbro made Excalumber, I think exhaust pipes should replace the light bars as his feet- in robot mode, the exhaust pipes become rocket boots, allowing him to fly.
This guy looks so cool! I love the truckmode! & botmode, too! & I _knew it_ ! I _knew_ his name was a play on Excalibur! Excalumber is such a good name and pun! :D
awesome idea. love the duo of characters and story potential in this. one cool idea could also be to make these duocons. trailer as leg or head, and truck as arms and chest.
Would be cool if there was a way to make a version were the 2 combine into a super robot mode, maybe have the trailer split into pieces like 2001 RID Optimus Prime/ Car Robots Fire Convoy and combine in different ways for different power ups, and then a way for everything to combine into an actual super mode
They would fit pretty well in transformers animated. It would be cool to see another two part vehicle whose alt modes were a knight and his steed, and were able to combine themselves in typical japanese fashion.
I imagine these two talking in a cheesy old British accent, like the characters in Monty Python and the Holy Grail. I wonder if Excalumber is well versed in the methods of swallow, both African and European, or if Camelog has some coconuts for emulating horse hooves.
This comment section is making this dude out as a powerful idiot with a heart of gold, while his partner is the brains of the operation, and I'm loving it. I'd also like to imagine that there's some lady-bot out there that Excalumber views as a damsel in distress, even though she could actually take on 10 Decepticons all by herself.
You know, i think if you gave it a different helmet piece, some different colors, and scrapped the legs, this could make for an amazing decepticon duocon. Maybe pulling a trailer that carries his other half? Maybe a boat or something of the like?
I think it would be cool if you could do this with an over sized load truck to be their rivals. Like have the cab transform, the trailer transform, and then the over sized vehicle on the trailer is either another bot or weapons for the two.
I kind of like the thought that Excalumber and Camelog might not be the quickest on the up tick, so when they scanned a logging truck, the didn't realize at first that the logs were separate and just ended up incorporating them into the alt mode.
lol
Nah Excalumber made them himself, he’s a craftsman of his own gear
Considering the wooden sword, I’m going just head canon that Excalumber just magically grows in power depending on how much he believes in his fantasy, like he’s a transformer just roleplaying a knight and the more he believes it the more inexplicably powerful he gets.

basically his delusion allows him to pull out Fate level OP nonsense? Neat.
@@xavierwalko4175 he believes so hard that he’s a knight wilding Excalibur that he just uses sabers Noble Phantasm
@@SunriseOfRaven Yep
I fear no man, but that thing (Excalumber), it scares me
I love the dynamic between these two, like you said there is so much story potential baked into these designs, like, Camelog's alt mode makes him dependant on Excalumber and therefore he would try to prove himself more often.
I feel like these guys would have a lot of run ins with coVert
Yoooo
I saw an updated Oversteer ❤ and also Extractor, I imagine they're in the same team

Ah, like Don Quixote!
@@caedenide8721 Coming soon, Windmill decepticon?
If Mad Jack the Pirate and Snook were knight and squire instead.
Excalumber = Protective Father
Camelog = Son who gets into the most sticky situations imaginable
Change my fragging mind, glitch
I'm thinking more squire/sire.
@@Wolede Same difference
@@themidknightmando3219 Not really. A sires gets to do all the cool knightly stuff while a squire just gets to carry his sire's stuff. Not very fatherly if you ask me.
@@Wolede …I meant their relationship dynamic…
Why?
Beautiful. Now all we need is a Forestry Harvester that turns into his steed!
Now there's an idea.
or sidekick

Excalumber: Finally! Autobot City!!
Camelog: Eh, it's just a model...
Ex:shhhhh!
Excalumber really does give me Don quixote vibes lmao - he needs a deception windmill as his nemesis.
A Decepticon windmill that turns into a dragon!
That would actually be insanely cool! Someone else commented that he should have a steed, and this one image of Don Quixote riding on an incredibly disproportionate Rocinante immediately popped into my head. I think it would work well with Excalumber too considering his tiny legs!
i imagine excalumber sounding something like beast wars silverbolt, just that kind of over the top heroic voice
This guy gives me tfa bulkhead vibes 😂
This is probably my new favorite of your transformers! The proportions are mighty, the name and vibe is awesome, and the squire is adorable!
I LOVE using minifig head accessories to make more expressive heads for your transformers. Great choice.
Excalumber = Dr. Livesey
Camelog = Jim
“For you, both Synth-En and Death are the same!”
*proceeds to phonk walk*
Oh my god, please, someone animate them doing the walk
I really like the name a lot and love the alt mode I always like the big truck transformers
These feel like characters we woulda seen in Animated.

Dude's built like the Champ from Slay the Spire, another knight who definitely skips leg day.
this is the coolest one you've made holy moly. I love the cartoonish proportions of these two
One of the more creative Transformers I've seen in a very long time. Well done!
When you first started transforming him, I thought "please don't make the light bar the legs". I should have trusted you. So much character!

I feel like Excalumber would talk and act like Reinhardt from Overwatch
I’m getting Transformers Animated vibes from these two and I love it
Thats Dwayne and Kevin in Jumanji. Tough guy and tiny guy with a big backpack haha
This is actually EPIC! The engineering along with the accuracy is very commendable!

I am instantly in love wuth this. Imagine these two as a dedicated toy, id buy that instantly.

Nice new pfp bro!! And amazing transformer as well! Truck transformers are always soo cool!
Yes, unfortunately they are a lot harder to build than they seem
@@GrandReaper735 Vert true
The gray also services itself in truck mode as work trucks that would haul lumber like this are very plain. Overall works well.
Ingenious!

This is wild man, love how this turned out! So creative 👊👊👊
looks like AOE Optimus prime recolored in vehichle mode, looks cool keep up the amazing work
FRICK,YOU BEAT ME TO IT.a logging truck transformer is actually on my to-do list,i just haven't gotten around to it yet.
Happy pride month!
This guy looks so cool! I love the truckmode! & botmode, too!
& I _knew it_ ! I _knew_ his name was a play on Excalibur! Excalumber is such a good name and pun! :D
Okay, I not only love the concept, I also love the execution~
The designs are getting so good! I would love to see some more creative integrated weapons like the logs on a sword and shield
Someone could definitely make a cartoon with these guys
God I wish Hasbro would hire you so we could get some of these small custom transformers into real figures, your work is great.
awesome idea. love the duo of characters and story potential in this. one cool idea could also be to make these duocons. trailer as leg or head, and truck as arms and chest.
The puns with the names are too good.
Excalumber definitely gives a animated bulkhead look. Very round and broad, with relatively small legs.
This fantastic!!! I would love to see this as an official transformer toy!!!
Excalumber is the knight, Camelog is the squire!
It is so good that play on words is also hilarious
Reminds me of that one scene from Monty Python
*”Tis’ but a scratch”*
Amazing work. Definitely one of my favorites

So this guy's two bots in one? Cool! And nice going with those knight helmets.
Not to shabby 👏👏👍
idea: combine both.
They would fit pretty well in transformers animated.
It would be cool to see another two part vehicle whose alt modes were a knight and his steed, and were able to combine themselves in typical japanese fashion.
“Babe, wake up student scissors posted a new video!”
Excallabur was definitely sent to some back water planet 💀💀💀
I never thought the monkfish helmets could work so well
Excalumber gave transformer prime bulkhead vibe
That design is super cool!
nice job, I love transforming legos
It’s official. Thew makes the names for your love
Me: sees new Transformer
Flashbacks: Final Destination 2
And now he needs a noble decepticon rival
Excalumber is built like a one piece character and he is amazing (actually, so is Camelog).
I imagine these two talking in a cheesy old British accent, like the characters in Monty Python and the Holy Grail. I wonder if Excalumber is well versed in the methods of swallow, both African and European, or if Camelog has some coconuts for emulating horse hooves.
please make num 117 a halo tf and the idea of it being two autabots is genius
at first glancw with the grey i thought he was a decepticon but once he was transformed yeah it made sense
This comment section is making this dude out as a powerful idiot with a heart of gold, while his partner is the brains of the operation, and I'm loving it.

I really want hasbro to make this. Such a fun duo.
You are a genius, I have made a whole 1 transforming lego moc and it only barley resembled a humvee with a large gun lol
Love how u made it two and not one
Hmmm, another Ex-, and very top heavy... perhaps set to be combiner perhaps just Reinhardt
3:51 The trailer itself transforms? This is just like the micromaster combiners oil truck and godbomber!
With those four spindly posts, I'm wondering if there could have been a way to make the trailer transform into his noble steed.
The cab is so buff but little legs cute buby
You know, i think if you gave it a different helmet piece, some different colors, and scrapped the legs, this could make for an amazing decepticon duocon. Maybe pulling a trailer that carries his other half? Maybe a boat or something of the like?

It’s interesting to c the legs from the front Of the truck instead of the arms the front it’s definitely something different
CONGRATS ON 50K
I like these guys
Bro skipped leg day
My favorite so far.
These guys colour scheme kind of reminds me of the dinobots!
Makes me wanna try and build a Final destination variant
Now we need a dragon decepticon 🐉
Holy shi# student scizzors became the corporation during june
I love these builds so much. So much imagination on display. Great job. But its a fifth wheel and king pin. Not a trailer hitch.
Excalumber is built like a gorilla in proportions. Camelog is just a little guy.
