The Object Force Warrior v4.0 "WolfSpyder" is a new exosuit I recently
created. I also made an .mpd of the suit as well as a high resolution set of
instructions ready for you to print and build your own!
Future Combat Systems ExoSuit Armored Transport "SpyderNest" is a lightly
armored transport vehicle made from the FCS chasis to carrier the OFW IV
"WolfSpyder" into combat.
I did ALOT of research on current and future military weaponry and armor for
both of these creations. Each one has quite a detailed and well researched
story. I am anxiously awaiting you comments, corrections, and critisms.
Nice job on the Hardsuits! I like your use of the handlebar piece on the chest. The transport is also cool, looks very chunky. (22 years ago, 12-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)
This is really wild stuff Tony. The amount of research that went into this project is obvious from the first look at it. The backstory on the suit and the technology behind it (I'm assuming that was gleaned in part from that Popular Mechanics issue (...)

even though i don't like the whole pop-off-the-minifig-...ts-a-mecha thing, i have to say here that the carrier is great. first, the skillful use of tiles and studs with a minimum of exposed studs is very masterfully executed. also, the way the body (...)

oh my goodness gracious. your exosuit and carrier are simply fantastic. well-thought out idea. kinda reminds me of the colonial marine APC (a la "aliens"). glad to see you used gray (gray is our friend) for the color scheme. very military. i noticed (...)

The suit! Wild it is! nifty,compact, hard suit tech. Very cool. I spy handle bars, axle bushings and more. The transport with the shot of the suits are really neat. Some good building to heal the soul. e (22 years ago, 12-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)
Wow. This is really cool stuff - the research is evident in the believability of the backstories. And the mecha suits are cool - great use of antennas. The coolest thing to me is simply the way the suits mount to the SpyderNest. That just strikes me (...) (22 years ago, 13-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)
Dude, I love the carrier. Not so often do we see support equipment, I love it! Particuarily the engine, the chute from bed of truck to interior, and the greeblies on the exterior are very nice. I like your use of the antennes for arms and legs. I (...) (22 years ago, 13-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)
Hey TK, nice hardsuit. I tried using the technic bush parts for the arms when I was buiding my PA003 but I found them too short since I doubled up the levers. They do look great on your hardsuit. I really like what you have done with the transport (...) (22 years ago, 13-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)
WOW! Thats some cool stuff Tony. Like I said in another post, I'm not much of a exo suit kinda guy but that looks cool. How posable are the arms? Like do they stay fairly tight or are they playable at all? Keep up the good work. Jamie (...) (22 years ago, 13-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)

Tony both of these are really cool. great work! (...) stories are so real and well done as well as are the armor descriptions on the WolfSpyder. The WolfSpyder is an awesome model on it's own too. It looks fantastic. Lots of little details really (...) (22 years ago, 15-Jan-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space)
