I am all for "Schnipp Schnapp" instead of "Schnapp Schnapp". Let's vote!
And of course "Crab Claw" would translate to "Krabbenschere" as mentioned previously, but "Büchsenöffner" would sound better to me.

Lol why do I just have to think about a King Crab operating a huge can opener now?

I'd personally prefer just a simple "Schnapp" on the right Torso, maybe an additional "Krabbe" on the left one... Otherwise it sounds too childish to me, especially "Schnipp Schnapp" sounds terrible and way too cute... Same goes for "Krabbenschere"

Wouldn't you like a king crab shaped can opener in your kitchen.. sounds like a merchandising opportunity.
Somehow you're right, both versions sound childish. How about "Schnappe, Schnappe, Königskrabbe"?

Those Pictures in my head, just amazing... but I think i stay with my good old pal blood Angels furioso dreadnought made of tin to open my Cans ^^

btT: Another option would be just to write the word "Schnapp" over the whole front torso, maybe in a bloody red... Just to distract enemys and seed some fear in the enemys hearts

Schnapp Schnapp would be correct however,

Schnipp Schnapp would be most akin to the colloquial phrase used in Germany.

Krabbenklaue is accurate.

Why not? Accompanied by a picture of a huge claw that just cut a sponge into pieces. :)

Put a 42 on which seems more fitting as the crab is the answer to everything (or at least the DireWolf).

Nur so eine kleine Anmerkung zu der Sache. ;)

Währe es bei der Steiner Version eventuell nicht am sinnvollsten eine Deutsche statt einer Englischen Beschriftung zu verwenden?

Dann müsste man sich auch keine Gedanken darüber machen das die Bedeutung bei der Übersetzung nicht mehr stimmt oder ob was anders nicht ganz korrekt ist wenn man es übersetzt.


PS: Bevor jemand ankommt, ja ich bin mir durchaus bewusst das PGI so was versucht hat. Aber es sieht halt eher wie Denglisch aus.


Wie währe es mit: Schnipp, Schnapp Schnie... ab. :P

would be a lot more realistic...sure you can do "KRABBENKLAUE" but common guys that's not what's "realistic" (talking about giant robots with lasers here...)

My 5 cent on it:

" Schnipp Schnapp"

and

keep " Krabbenklaue" - " Krabbenschere" just doesnt fit to a 100 t metal monster

So I think "Schnapp, Schnapp" & "Krabben Klaue" are fine.
Whereas "Schnipp, Schnapp" & "Krabbenschere" would also be correct yet belittle the hazardous aspect of 100 ton mechanical claws.

Mit Schnipp Schnapp hat es die Verharmlosung von Schnapp Schnapp. Klar ist das zuvordest unsinnig eine verniedlichende Form von Schnapp, Schnapp zu nehmen. Andererseits hat es gerade innerhalb der Verniedlichung und dem Kontrast zu 100t auch seinen Reiz. Das ist das selbe wie beim einem Löwen das Brüllen in ein verniedlichendes Miau einer Katze zu überführen, nur um im Widerspruch die Erhabenheit zu betonen. Oder besser ausgedrück Stilmittel Diminutiv für die Untertreibung.

Im übrigen finde ich die Idee: "Dosenöffner" auch sehr ansprechend und weil scherzhaft Mechs auch den Dosenvergleich gut mitmachen treffend. Von daher kann ich mir aus dem Hintergrund heraus viel eher vorstellen, das ein Mechpilot Dosenöffner auf die Klaue von den Techs malen läßt als Krabbenschere.
