The BrikWars Forums

The End-All Be-All Commando Mech for Underwater to Surface to Airborne Jet-Pod-Attack Mechazoid.. heheh, it's Capitol m8!

I like to imagine that the robo-tentacles retract to give way for adjustable thrusters and move in the way that the tri-pod things from Unreal Tournament II III walk

It's got 2 gausse lazers
2 sniper lazers
2 gausse gattling guns
1 pressurized nuclear harpoon
10 mini-turrets
1 long-range antenna receiver with a front attachment for emitting radioactive rays
2 missile pods with trackers
aaaaaand i'll make the rest up when i'm pressed for details lol but I can make it work!

Oh, it's also got different parts from different kinds of brik companies.. Like a Chimera! I hope that's ok :s

Very tentacle-y. I like it.

Yes.

Thank you!! ^_^

I made it from a mix of old leftover briks from my childhood and It's become kind of a thing in my life, so i decided to show it off lol

I decided to make some canon for it and the 2 mini-figs in the first picture...

I feel like some most of the inspiration comes from the Aquazone/raiders/sharks series, it should come from some of those roots of deep water action/exploration.

So... in a deep water lab at the bottom of the Mariana Trench.. The deepest known crevice to man besides Pamela Anderson's breasts..
In a Secret Laboratory constructed by lone Alien Space Wizard Zost and his faithful robot companion Uror, the Ultimate combat mech this side of Battle Engine Aquila was being constructed..

After 23 years of juvenile scientist experimenting, Zost realized that the key to the ultimate combat machine was all around him, Squids!!
These fleshly blobs of ferociousness managed to not only survive at immense pressures, but thrive and become Apex Predators!

Using ancient Octavian technology, Zost created Living Metal, Metal with the same properties as the living flesh of any animal, but the hardiness of the densest steel.
But he didn't stop there..
Zost knew that world domination can only be achieved with the mastery of all elements, the ability to traverse all environments with ease!
He also knew that no living thing can be trusted, this mission he must complete alone, and alone he would reap the rewards!
His machine must be fast, therefore a fission reactor and hydro-aero-ion thruster were to be employed, but it must also be adaptive, so having studied the pseudo-aetheric works of John Ernst Worrell Keely, Zost knew the Aether was there.. he only needed to perfect the Sonic Motor to complete the absolute manipulation of space and time!!!
Therefore He created the revolutionary Harmonic Resonance Antenna System which is mounted on the back of his deadly Octo Mech.
This Antenna accomplishes the impossible feat of collecting and harnessing the power of the entire spectrum of Vibrations and Electromagnetic Waves in his nearby Galaxy and transferring that power into his Deadly Emitter! These waves have the adverse and destructive affect of vibrating molecules until they explode or fall apart, resulting in complete dis-assimilation for all who oppose Zost and his Impure conquest!

Ahaha, that was fun lol, i'll pick this up again later hha

This is really cool! Getting a very '90s sci-fi lego set vibe from it, which I like.

I just hope it doesn't have any Mega Bloks in it though...

It's a confused beast but I like it that way. Nice use of UV light on the latter pics.

LMAO! It actually has quite a few.. Megabloks were a big part of my childhood, part of the reason I got into Mechs so much. I had the quad walker and large bi-pedal walker mechs from the Future Force Mech series that megabloks did and I used a fair bit of surplus that I had from those (that I didn't give away to my younger cousins) to make this thing.
Every bit was just enough to create what i had in my head, i ran out of a lot of pieces just in time to create complete symmetricality, and i'm not trying to win any Brikwars here, honestly, I just wanted to show this thing off and see what people thought of it and i'm already very pleased so far ^_^
I consider it an amalgamation of my childhood and current life, it feels enlightening to see what I can create with my imagination, from a bunch of leftover briks that my dad was about to throw away, to a design of a thing that looks cool enough to be in it's own video game! I feel quite inspired every time I look at it.. I only wish to share that feeling, but I see some very creative and impeccable brik-artists on this forum as well! It's a very cool site..

Thank you so much for the praise, it really means a lot to me!.. Brings me back to my childhood haha.. :' )

The only beast confused here is YOU!! LOL jk, it is totally a mish-mash and rather ugly from the side.. But it's all I got!

I'm so happy you see the merits of glowey-bits ! It's really cool to look at under a blacklight, especially from above! it's got that outer-to-inner-ascending-to-descending design that really made things pop out for me when i re-designed it, reminded me of a few mechs that i made and saw in chromehounds (RIP) :' (

Also, every post I make decreases my rank! I feel this site has a rather dark tinge of irony in it.. Like the more I use it and the more I post, the less of a mystery I am and the more I could be subjected to negativity.. Quite a wonderful and insightful allegory, if not a harsh realization of what frequent posting does to image, and then, what a frequent talker does to his peers! I'm learning a lot here..

Looks great.

The ranks just make sure that we accurately track your slow descent into madness.

Also, I love GT, so +1 from me.
