Something I’ve been tinkering with for a few days. Aside from the joints, it’s made entirely from pieces found in (two copies of) 6817 Light Armor Firebase from Mega Bloks’ Call of Duty line.




Thanks for looking. Enjoy!

It’s the Sirocco. And not the forgettable Volkswagen, either.

I’m not a Mecha guy, but this seems to be as nicely mechanized as any LEGO built version. It’s also interesting to see the difference in elements produced by MEGA BLOKS. Well played, Dave!

As for the name; my dad bought a first year Scirocco (1975) and I thought it was the kewlest! Giugiaro designed, it was the car in which I took my drivers test.

So I take umbrage with your maligning of this classic beauty, Dave!
