Guardian Hardsuit

[Alex]

Great job on both suits, though the Guardian is my favorite. If you have any more chainsaws, one possibility would be to attach them to the arms of the guardian, so it could still hold other weapons.

What weapons do you have planed for him?

I already have a spear (although it's more like a sword on a pole) and shield built for him. I felt like melee suited him better than guns, although I'm tempted to order the parts to make a ranged version of this frame.

one question: does it hold a full fig?

Unfortunately, no. The head is stuck on a stud.

I can imagine his arm falling of very fast.

Yeah, some parts are a little fragile when posing it, although it's an overall sturdy build.

All jokes aside would an exploded view be possible for copying?

I'll try to get one up soon.

Again, thanks for the kind words. I'm really starting to like building mechs and suits, so I'm hoping I can build some more.

I'm tempted to order the parts to make a ranged version of this frame.

Do it. that would be awesome. I can see this being a multi purpose design. while some might have one for melee, others might have one for firefighting, boarding space vessels mining, or anything.

mining

Now I REALLY want to make a Power Miners variant. The only problem with this design is that it's parts-intensive, although they are pretty common parts, so hopefully Bricklinking them wouldn't be too painful.

Thats what I was thinking. Im fantasizing about on in white and orange but the exo force robot arms in the front is something I don't have. I would have to substitute that part for something else. Power miners use really rare colored pieces so good luck to ya!
