Holy Crap! C3PO Wants revenge big time!

Not much to really say on it. I had two boxes of these guys, but both were incomplete. So, fusing them togethor, I managed to replicate the original the best I could. Its fairly rigid in design, with underhand gauss cannons and overhead rocket launchers. missiles are overated.

Its built with both Lego + Megablok pieces, and differienates from the original.

Also to those who insult Megabloks: Try to give some useful commentary, thank you.

No matter how awesome it is, it still sucks if it has a clonebrand brick.

While it would be rather awesome, it is soiled by the presence of the clone bricks. I suggest you pull a Stalin and purge your Lego nation of the undesirable bricks.

I like it... C3PO gave me a larf... I personally couldn't care less where the bricks come from so long as I get something I can use. I've used models, wood and anything lying around that was to hand to create all sorts of stuff for lego. Don't listen to the puritans in the crowd... Lego pays them to say these things. :roll: :wink:

Just to be fair with yall, I didn't design it myself. It's a Megablok mech that comes with instructions. I however decided to test and see how well a Mech could stand up to being hit with a scooter. Well..lol...yea....
So, about two years later, my grandmother decides to bring me a present. The same kit, from a garage sale, with near everything missing. Well, I combined what was left, made my own modifications, and did away with the wings + gatlings. THe end result is what you see, a mix between lego and Megablok parts.

That had better as hell be sarcasm, and it still isn't funny.
