The newest weapon to come from the 45th Union R&D labs..... For a while The R & D dept have been developing walker tech from small power suites....

To simple box walkers....

But now comes the culmination of this tech, The IM-3 "Iron Maiden" Mecha!

Image

Armed with a Heavy Gatling Cannon, Recoilless Rifle, Rocket Rack, & Flamethrower, no other ground vehicle in the 45th carries more power on the field.

Doesn't transform into a vehicle: -5

Final Score: 7/10. I like.

In the left forearm, it actualy retracts to keep the hand free.

The right forarm, when the weapon below it runs out of ammo or gets destroyed, it detaches. And the right arm becomes a melee weapon itself!

Thanks, if it was piloted by a yellow it would've been -5

It dosen't need to transform into a vehicle, it's so kool it pimp walks to battle....

Iron = Grey

The Immortals look on your Empire in all it's shining glory, they wish to tear it asunder and make it ash, we'll keep all the good stuff for ourselves though. :twisted: :wink:

I bricked in my pants. Please post some pics of your whole army. Sure they might be peachs, which makes you a heretic, but I wanna see your whole army.

as for he joints though they came from bionikle tech they are now mostly mated to the basic lego system, see the mining mech from the latest line o tunnelors
