   I like the general low-slung shape of these mechs. They look very agressive, and the large back-side could be equipped with a variety of things, such as huge missile launchers, a rocket booster pack, massive railguns... The underside and the arms are also very inviting to equip with huge weapons, like miniguns, or grenade launchers... I haven’t seen this shape before.

Thanks. This was planned and a necessity. I wanted to get a start with Mechs but I figured that a humanoid would be too challenging for the first build so I tried to go in a new direction.

I too think that this shape leads to a lot of possibilites, as somewhat demonstrated with the three variations of Mechs.


   It would be interesting to see someone take this shape to the minifig scale.

Give me a few days, I have one built but I am waiting for the bricklink orders to arrive to finish the details.

Hi Brian,
I’m waiting for that! Like your stuff very much! And I see the shadow of an upcoming master of arts in your first attempts on mecha.

Build on, I know you will!

   I want to, but unfortunately, I don’t build much nowadays. But thanks for sharing some great inspiration! :)

That can be easily changed.

I love the name Tobias, we were considering that name for our first son.

Thanks.

Brian
