After seeing Kyle Vrieze’s Spider Tank I was floored. Naturally, I was amazed at the new bar Kyle had raised, and I promptly e-mailed him (due LUGNET posting technical difficulties). His MOC inspired this. Thanks Kyle! :-)

I’ll list my other influences:
  • T-90 turret --> I liked the radial, fanning out arrangement of the armoured panels
  • RADHA from Patlabor 2 anime --> I wanted to make a wheeled quadruped that actually rolled
  • deployed German 88mm Flak 36 --> This leads into the next one below...
  • Jeremy Sproat’s Suborbital Defender --> I liked the idea of a offensive and defensive mode
Enjoy!

(...) It's great that you were inspired by my Spider Tank, and it's also pretty cool that within the space of about a day, you're posting a MOC inspired by my last post, and I'm posting a MOC inspired by your last post.

Awesome Spider tank mech man. I'm lovin the concealed wheels and the missiel rack design. The round wedge design sitting upon the top is also nifty. (19 years ago, 21-Jun-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Mladen, I can't believe you'd stoop to this level of nationalism: "Bushwhacker"? You evil Tank-Mecha driving Canadian, sure you can reduce Detroit to rubble, but you'll never break the American spirit! Although I've never been completely comfortable (...)

Awesome as usual Mladen! First off, the coolest part about this mecha are the legs. They are absolutely beautiful. The wheels fit in perfectly and the ladders as detail are awesome. The rockets at an independant angle from the leg are so sweet. What (...) (19 years ago, 26-Jun-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Mladen, as always this is simply breathtaking. I am taken especially by the smaller details, like the 1x2 trans tile that comprises the periscope lens. Smoke launchers, staggered missle pods. Nice. I understand the wheels and they're pretty cool, (...) (19 years ago, 30-Jun-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
