Great work Marco, I wouldn’t want to be a judge, so many outstanding entries.

Marco, this is really one of your best mecha yet!

I’m not a huge fan of red and grey colour schemes, but I can totally appreciate you phenomenal part usage and the overall harmony of the legs, torso, and weapons. I can really tell you thought this one through exhaustively. My favourite part would definitely have to be the missile launcher. It’s just looks so well made! The reactor/engines are also a nice touch.

Oh, and that little yellow version is so cute.

Finally, I love the irony in your inclusion of the small, tracked guided-missile ‘bot. It’s funny, but those things are probably the way of the future, in terms of land-warfare. I can only imagine the curses the high command would utter, after seeing their high-end mecha disabled by such an inexpensive weapon... Like RPGs vs. MBTs today. LOL :-)
