  Re: MOC: a.c.e.r. Insertion Mech Unit
 
Thank you sir! I'm glad you recognized the SM-388 in this as it was indeed an inspiration for it. Actually, I first had the thought to do this mech after I built the Bodkin fighter using the JSF canopy and 'miniboat hull' wedges. With a workable (...)

  Re: MOC: a.c.e.r. Insertion Mech Unit
 
Thanks John! You nailed it with the notice of the oversized hips. I found I had to puff them out a bit to make up for the lack of upper appendages. Some of the design is inspired from the Zetradi mechs of Robotech Macross, smooshed together with (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: MOC: a.c.e.r. Insertion Mech Unit
 
Mnay thanks Stephen....the levers were an afterthought, but I liked how they looked. Originally there were hoses from the knees to the back of the thigh area, but it restricted the posability. I have to marvel at how those mecha guys get these (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: MOC: a.c.e.r. Insertion Mech Unit
 
Thanks Thomas! I tried to keep the size down so I could hopefully employ it in larger platforms. Now onto those larger platforms....yikes. Cheers, -G (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

Solid...good to hear! That was the goal for this - a little machine that could take a beating in any situation. Thanks, -G (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

Thank you sir. The legs were the jumping off point for this little guy....I had them sketched out before the rest. Must be an after effect of poking around in .mecha..... Cheers, -G (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: MOC: a.c.e.r. Insertion Mech Unit
 
That's a nifty little Mech you built there. It reminds me of my SM-388 robot I built a while back only this is 10 times better. I like what you did with the hip joints. Looks very good. Good to see a moc show up under the a.c.e.r. banner. Jamie (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: MOC: a.c.e.r. Insertion Mech Unit
 
Very cool, Gil. The legs really work well with the cockpit- its hard to make an armless mech that looks right. The use of the dish and round brick design for the hips also is nice. You are the master of things that stick out! You really did the back (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: New Mecha (finally...)
 
I'm totally late on the boat with this one, and would have missed it entirely had I not done a search to see what you've been up to! Boy am I glad I did...this absolutely astounds me Mladjen. The sheer size of the beast alone knocks me down, but (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Biopede...Trying to understand Bionicle
 
Hello All, This is a MOC I did a few months ago while working at the Lego Outlet in Atlanta (for a short time). I started out with a few sets with the intention of seeing what I could come up with. The main idea was to try and understand what it was (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.technic.bionicle)

(...) It bristles with weapons although it's so small and mobile - that's what I love about it. Great model, Gil! Regards Thomas (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: MOC: a.c.e.r. Insertion Mech Unit
 
Dang that's good. Very solid and compact. It looks as though even if it ran out of ammo, it'd do a fair amount of damage just by ramming the opponent. Nice one. Allister ...thinking mecha thoughts... (...) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

Greetings! Presenting a.c.e.r.'s latest (and first) mobile armed platform. Hopefully the start of a trend, returning to this too long delayed line. (URL) (22 years ago, 28-Jan-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Whoa- Jaw-Dropper New Mecha
 
Thanks for pointing these bad boys out to us! I actually saw them the other day on Brickshelf, but it's nice to see Mr. Sanchez get some wider exposure. I wonder if he's familiar with Masamune Shirow? Some of the designs are eerily similar. (22 years ago, 27-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Hey all- Browsing along through brickshelf, I stumbled across these. My apologies to the guy if he was gonna post them, but I hadn't seen him around here. (URL) WoW! NICE medium mecha designs, not to 'weaponized', great coloring, sweet use of (...) (22 years ago, 25-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
