During the building period of a rather big Mecha (coming soon) i got stuck
and fustrated.
So I had to have a fast success to build me up again.
This is the whole story behind Delta.

Marco,
It kinda reminds me of a cross between two things in the Star Wars
universe. They are the AT-PT and the Binary Load Lifter Droid.
|
Hello Jon,
as far as I can remember the AT-PT is piloted, which delta isn’t. I can’t
picture the Load Lifter Droid. Delta was born out of the pieces. I had those
parts I thought they would give a good upper leg. That’s how it started.
|
In my opinion, the binary load lifter looks an awful lot like in AT-ST but with
a little modification. Imagine adding a set of arms towards the upper rear
portion of the scout walker’s head. The hands of these arms would look kinda
like giant cookie sheets. The only digits on these hands would be a thumb that
sticks straight up from the back edge of the cookie sheet where the wrist meets
the hand. This keeps boxes from rolling off of the rear edge as it moves.
can ya tell, I’m a robot nut?...LOL

It’s tiny,
it’s cool, but can I get one with tools and repulsor lifts so it can hover
around and repair my mecha?
|
Thank’s for the praise! Feel free to build one.
|
I might just have to do that, and if I do, I’ll give it an off the wall color
scheme!!!! Muuwaaahaaahaaa
| |
If you do, please do me a favour and post some pics.
BTW your Talon is upper cool! I like the ladder system. Was thinking of
something like it time after time, but didn’t get a working solution.
Good job!
