After seeing Thad's awesome Catapult, I decided to upload some photos of my own creation!

Its over 15 years old, and still have it, also included photos of other Lego mechs I built but didnt keep.

So check here!

And some photos:

You may notice its very mobile :) it can stand and crouch with the help of a few bending pieces that prevent it from falling down when its upright, or allow it to crouch by bending the piece, as you may notice in the above photo, below the right upper leg (the gray piece that seems loose, its retracted to allow the knee to bend, same in the other leg), so no pieces are removed or attached to allow it to change stance.

And no I wont sell it unless someone is willing to give me a ridiculous ammount of money for a few hundred lego pieces :P

Oh and I may decide to get back to it and change it if PGI makes their version of the Battlemaster :)

Sweet. Great job on the jointing.

I wish I had pictures of the mechs I've built over the years...

I've done a really good Warhammer, Rifleman, Flashman, and a Clint.
I also made some less impressive copies of a Hunchback, Dervish, Phoenix Hawk, Catapult, and Vindicator.

I tried making a Marauder, but the leg configuration just didn't stand up... the cat I managed because its balanced better.

I'm tempted to remake some of them just to show, but I'd need to find some spare time for it :)

hehe I remember this one took me a weekend, worked at it all afternoons and some of the nights, and some time later spent some more time with it making improvements, it sure is time consuming.
