I think the AG makes it dangle its arms in a nasty insectile fashion, which I like, but I can just see a set of those big hinged samurai armour ‘skirt’ plates on the legs, a bit like some of the Gears from Heavy Gear.Perhaps another version. I’d probably remove the pods as well - I imagine they may be associated with the AG aspect.

Glad you liked it, and thanks for the comments.
