"Using technologies perfected while designing PA003 and new joint technology
research, the Tieran Marine techs have come up their lightest, smallest,
cost effective, and most versatile power armor yet.
There are several configurations that can be accomplished with PA004’s frame.
The prototype shows only limited armor, no jump jets, and no weapons.

Enough with the sales pitch hehe.  I have several configurations in mind
for PA004 so I don't know which to build first.
The prototype is pretty close to the TMC's "Open Atmosphere Armor" series on
the same lines as PA001 but half the size and much lighter armor. PA004,
however, is much more posseable.  I am thinking of new models of PA002 and
PA003 using the same tech.

I first saw the joint tech used here:

So I cannot take credit for it.

PLMKWYT guys.
Thanks,
David.

David, I think those legs are great! It was hard to tell with it all black, but now that you have added the diagram and the link to your inspiration, I am going to steal that idea too! Keep pumping them out! t (22 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

That looks so cool, I always like the stuff you come up with. The Mini-fig parts have so many uses! Wow! e (22 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) That's some slick mini-hinge work. I love the hands-as-hip-joints, that's really quite clever. Wish I'd thought of it :) Adrian -- (URL) (22 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Mmmmmmm... new Rabadan design... I like. Very much. I'm always impressed by your compact cockpit frames. Take care, Soren (22 years ago, 14-Mar-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
