I saw the thumbnail on Brickshelf before I saw your post here, and I immediately
thought two things:
1. It was yours, without a doubt.
2. The short, thick chest section and big shoulder blocks--looks like a Front
Mission Wanzer.
I was right on both counts!
I like the wheels, I think they might have worked better if you could have
narrowed the foot down, and gone with more of a pointy toe than a forked toe,
but I don’t know if that would have been possible.
I’m not real big on the cylindrical launchers, but I loooove those green box
launchers. It looks badass with the arm shields, and I think the three-pylon
vernier pack is a nice innovation over the four-pylon version.
After looking through all the pics, I Googled for some Wanzer pics and started
building. I searched for Todd Amacher’s “Juggernaut” post so I could use his
hand design, and in the process I saw your reply to his post where you said,
“MOCs like this give me the urge to build.” So, yeah, I know what you mean!

| (URL) Click on Image I finally completed this mecha. Phew. Anyways, this is my third posable bipedal mecha. It uses many of the techniques I developed over the years. Inspiration for it came mostly from VOTOMS (note the wheels in the heel area) and (...) (20 years ago, 22-May-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX) !
