For your enjoyment, I present: The Firestone Man (made from Wilderness AT tires, of course).
The Firestone Man is the evil-twin brother of the Michelin Man.

Brickshelf

I am a SW man by nature but over time, I have amassed quite a collection of tires.
One day, I thought, I wonder if I could make a Bot entirely out of tires and so I tried.

The extent of his articulation is seen in the Brickshelf photos.
The bulk of the all-frame tire body hindered how much he could move.

It was a fun build, I hope you LOL! :)

Oh noooo! That is too funny and actually pretty cool! Now, I'm wondering, who was it on Brickshelf that did something similar..... I' can't remember. Either way, thanks for sharring. e (20 years ago, 2-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)

This made me sit up and take notice! It is funneeee! I liked it! The legs look a bit odd, but I'm assuming that was to enhance the clumsiness effect. Thanks! Legoswami (20 years ago, 2-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
