Finally! This mecha took way too long to complete. I started it after Christmas, and only got it done yesterday. I guess age slows you down. Heh. :-p

Anyways, this mobile platform is similar in some ways to my MTP, which I did all the way back in 2003. However, there are references to my other mobile platforms, as well.

I should also mention that this mecha is quite stable. In fact, after the MDP and MWP, it is one of the most stable MPs I’ve ever built. Even on slick surfaces it does not collapse. Ironically however, if I lift it up, the middle leg joints pull themselves apart and the legs dangle. Oh well. :-)

Enjoy!

Awesome new weapons platform, Mladen! Others have commented on the “hammerhead”, the gatling gun, the missile doors, the sensors--in other words, they didn’t leave me much. But they left me something! I love the hidden “inset” colors--the white cockpit, the burnt orange in the leg missile wells, and the orange in the main body missile well. Just the right little splashes of color to contrast with the grays and black. Great MOC!

Of course your mobile platforms always remind me of Shirow’s gun platforms from Appleseed. If you’ve not yet seen the 2004 update of the Appleseed movie, I highly recommend it--the CGI gun platforms, the landmates, cyborgs and robots in action--it’s pure visual candy.
