Greetings, Earth-Mortals! I'll admit I'm not a major 'mech-MOCcer. But I had some fun, and wanted to share my first little baby 'mech... ...Begin Transmission...

Adrian, Incredi-gobble! What's cool is that it looks both formidable and goofy at the same time. The true strength of this weapon, I believe, is that as it approaches the target evil-doer vessel, the bad guy occupants inside roll on the floor (...) (22 years ago, 22-Mar-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Could you bury one of the gold keys from the Harry Potter sets in there somehow? They have a nice ring-ish look to the end. They fit really nicely into a 1x2 brick with cross axle hole, but that would make your minotaur's head a lot thicker. (...) (22 years ago, 21-Mar-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.castle)

Mark, With its size and the hinge cylinders sticking out, I tried to keep the whole design plain and uncomplicated. If I probably had bigger treads then there would be more room to create a larger unit. You're not the only one who liked the facility (...) (22 years ago, 21-Mar-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

John, That's exactly what the tank is all about. Simple but effective and if you've seen my dioramas then you know that creating the appropriate background is just as important as the MOC. Thanks, ACPin & Sons (...) (22 years ago, 21-Mar-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Yes, it is self-supporting without the stand. However, the center of mass is rather far forward when it's in regular turkey mode, so it sort of leans over a bit (the shock absorber in the leg is actually slightly weight bearing, so it deforms (...)
