Features -
  • Snotted opaque base

I especially like the potty in the middle so it can pee without it going everywhere.

Well grokked sir. Potty/sump tomato/tomato

  
  
  • No moonbase connectors

Well what use would a mech be on the moon anyway?

I’m sure someone could find a use, but the Christmas Beetle didn’t strike me as a moon-mech.

  
  
  • Built over three evenings

Maybe if you’d taken 4 you woulda got the height right :smack:

Actually the third evening was spent extensively rebuilding it to make it about 8 studs taller. I was basing the height off Tim’s estimate of his mech at 16 bricks high, which it wasn’t. Oh well.

  
  
  • Modern intergrated robotic maintenance equipment requiring minimum crew
  • Windows operating system for ease of use.

How the heck did they get integration with Windows????? ROSCO

In this possible future, Windows actually works.

Cheers,

Allister
