HEAVY WEAPONS MECHA UNIT (H.W.M.U)

This is my first real attempt at a Mecha, and I have really enjoyed constructing it. This mecha is based on the contest picture and the idea of modern warfare. The colours are for the desert terrain and if I had more bricks you would see a jungle and tundra version. The model can switch between having a rocket launcher and a mini-gun or just having the rockets. It can even transform into no-weapons mode for the friendly non-violent AFOLs!

I hope you like it, because I have enjoed every minute of building it!

Thanks for such a great contest....

(...) I really like the use of color in your mech--it makes it stand out from the other entries. The Viking horns near the feet are a nice touch too. David "Fuzzy" Gregory (19 years ago, 31-Jan-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.build.contests, FTX)
