[Flickr Gallery] Pilot : Joanne Vasquez Based on the OZ-16MS frame, the Heartbreaker unit is designed for long-range combat and scouting missions in deep space. While lacking the active camouflage of most stealth units, the Heartbreaker is outfitted with tech to reduce the thermal emissions, rendering it very difficult to detect on most radar and scanning equipment. The two smaller eyes are, while more compact, the standard GUNDAM optic system. The third pod is a prototype triangulation module hard-linked to the sniper rifle. This allows for precision accuracy at distances previously unreachable by other armor systems. It also is able to identify other suits, ships and armors out of combat range, making the suit unparalleled in scouting operations. The Mobile suit is also equipped with twin beam sabers on the backpack. The sabers allow the suit to have a backup close quarters solution as the armor is quite a bit lower grade than most suits of equivalent size. What the suit lacks in defensive capabilities, however, it makes up for with speed and agility. The Unit boasts twin booster packs with stabilizers attached to the Twin Saber backpack. An additional center thruster also allows for silent maneuvering while scouting to reduce the thermal footprint. Anyway, enough loser nerd specs. Credit to Micah for his inspiration and help with my entry, and to Rob for just being the lovable guy he is. My Gundam was designed to exist "in-canon" with Micah's OZ-16MS Cronius. I'm not pleased at all with the over-used hand design, but it's the one thing that works thematically and structurally. Sure hope you guys aren't tired of Gundams yet!!!

This is my contest entry for Bionicle building contest number sixty-eight. It is a huge mecha piloted by my self-moc. The picture is sideways, and I probably would be allowed to turn the photo to make it vertical, but I would rather be safe than sorry. I have no idea how I'll get it to Brickfair, though. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=6107612

----------------Circular Reasoning--------------- This here is the first iteration of a mech I've been working on for some time. My photography and MoCing is a bit too sub-par to post on other forums as of yet, but I thought BZP would be a good place to pitch the prototype. Front Weapon Side Walrus Robot Punch! Cockpit Pilot The claw is attached to a string wrapped around the end of a small rod, that can actually be wound and unwound without being caught. I'm rather shocked it works so smoothly.

////WARNING///// Boss class enemy approaching ////WARNING//// Hey, this is the first thing i'm posting here in a looooong while, kinda missed this place. So, with everybody building giant robots, I decided I'd try my hand at a more Japanese styled one too. Sadly, I don't think I'll be able to enter the contest due to the large amount of system used. Oh well Anyway, comments are greatly appreciated, thanks!

<NOT A CONTEST ENTRY> http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2014/130/a/b/exo_nui__champion__by_orionide5-d7hvfyd.png (image is too big for the page) Backstory: Long ago, the Great Beings themselves fought a terrible war using colossal bio-engineered engines of destruction. These artificial monsters that were all put to sleep and imprisoned deep underground when peacetime returned. Now, the re-formation of Spherus Magna has awakened these beasts, and the golden fusion being has turned them into an army he intends to use to conquer the planet. To defend themselves, the Matoran and Agori reverse-engineered the giant robots of the Great Beings to create huge warrior machines: the Exo-Nui. The Exo-Nui called "Champion" was designed for Toa Hewkii and is both rugged and agile, able to scale mountains in pursuit of enemies. It can fight long-range with an energy cannon, or close-up with a mighty claw arm. MOC Features: Arms and legs articulated, with piston-supported knees and elbows and extra shoulder and hip mobility Cockpit fits a Bionicle minifigure, and can open (see above left view) or close via a lever on the back. The lever is connected by an axle to the larger gear seen in that view, while the small gear in that view is connected to the cockpit plate. EDIT: Forgot to mention, the hinge for the cockpit plate also has a ball joint which gives the hinge more friction, visible in the center view. I'd like some feedback on what parts of the creation could be improved (so that I don't make the same mistakes when I enter the GITR contest!)

This is a small project of mine that is now complete because of limited number of Speedorz frames available in LDD (a least for now). I am a big fan of Mecha. And I like Chima pretty much alot, that's why I even had this idea in the first place. So I was thinking 'what if I will take a Speedor frame and make with it a Gunmen-ish Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann-style Mecha? I think that would be awesome!' How awesome it is you can judge for yourself. =) Let us pretend that In the magical world of Chima where animal tribes struggle for possession of a precious Chi orbs, the great Mount Cavora suddenly shuddered. And as it did so, it threw out a number of enormous, never seen before Chi orbs, that were scattered across all the Chima, too powerful to use them on their own, too dangerous to be left alone. And King of Croc Tribe, Cragger, was the first to find a use to them by building a first ChiMech: a towering, brutal machine of destruction, that could compete even with Gorillas' Mechs. After defeat against Cragges's ChiMech, Gorzan, the mightiest of Gorilla tribe's warriors, has met with his friend Laval, a prince of Lions, and brought the grim news. ChiMech - Croc by The Mugbearer, on Flickr Laval decided to make a stealth sally in the territory of Crocs to find out what gave Cragger such power. Together with Gorzan and Eris they snuck into Crocs' fortess and found the ChiMech. While passing by throne chamber, Eris overheard Cragger bragging to Razar and Worriz about his discovery of Chi Core, the biggest Chi orb ever emerged from Mount Cavora. She also discovered that Crocs already sent out the scouts to find other locations where Chi Cores landed, and hurried to tell Laval and Gorzan who were sniffing around the hanger, but Worriz has scented her presence and caught her. But he never told Cragger and ordered his wolves to deliver the eagle to their camp. Laval and Gorzan never discovered her disappearance until they've been spotted by croc guards and was forced to leave. ChiMech - Croc Cockpit by The Mugbearer, on Flickr In the Wolves camp Eris discovered that Worriz secretly envied Cragger's success and sent out his own scouts to find at least one ChiCore, while his best mechanics were reverse-engineering Cragger's ChiMech by blueprints that they managed to copy while Cragger was so busy bragging. Eris decided that as much as she'd hate to steal, she must take those prints and deliver them to Lagravis. Razar has happened to visit Worriz's camp after visiting the Cragger's fortress and made a deal that she'd give away a first Chi Core they will find to Ravens if Razar will help her to escape and steal the blueprints. The two made a cunning and daring escape from Wolfs' camp but not before Worriz's mechanics finished to build their own ChiMech. ChiMech - Wolf by The Mugbearer, on Flickr While it was not as intimidating as Cragger's, it possessed outstanding agility. After parting with Razar, Eris made her way to Lion Temple and gave the blueprints to Lagravis. She discovered that after their escape from Croc Fortress, Laval and Gorzan wandered to the Temple and warned Lagravis about Craggers ominous invention. Lagravis ordered Longtooth and Leonidas to find the closest Chi Core and bring it back asap. Meanwhile, Laval let Gorzan go back to the forest to protect his tribe. Left alone, young lion spent alot of time planning how to find Eris and worrying about her safety. To his relief, Eris appeared at the Temple's gate at dawn, tired but happy. She gave the blueprint to Lagravis personally and went to have some sleep. ChiMech - Wolf Cockpit by The Mugbearer, on Flickr Back after Eris's escape, Worriz, while being angered by this event, has his Chi Core installed and so departed from the camp to meet with Cragger and tell him that he now has a ChiMech too. Cragger was furious and at first even engaged in a fight to destroy Worriz's Mech but suddenly changed his mind. He decided that he will just let Worriz to go first and 'accidentally' will shoot at his back where Chi Core was installed under an armor plate. Worriz told nothing about Eris's escape to not cause further anger from Cragger. They rallied their warriors and marched out on the Lion Temple. Combined forces of Wolves and Crocs has arrived by the noon... and was really surprised to discover that Lion Gates were now guarded by a ChiMech designed by the Lions! ChiMech - Lion by The Mugbearer, on Flickr Laval was piloting the Mech and he proclaimed that Cragger will never reach the Chi Cores anymore and that he will protect it even with his own life. Since Cragger still was pretty sure about who sent his parents to that Gorge, he was okay if Laval - or any number of Lions - will fall on his, Craggers, way to rule all the Chima. He ordered his forces to attack the Temple. ChiMech - Lion Cockpit by The Mugbearer, on Flickr Since Laval was equipped with a spear and an impenetrable shield, he could repel any ranged attack, even from Cragger's ChiMech deadly cannons. But once Worriz has reached him, Laval felt all the sharpness of Wolf ChiMech's claws. Furious strikes made Laval to back off, step by step, until he has reached the closed gates. And that's when Cragger decided that it's a good opportunity to kill two rabbits with one stone and opened fire at Worriz's ChiMech back. However, armor was strong enough to endure all the shots, although sudden back-stabbing attack allowed Laval to kick Worriz off the Temple's stairs. Worriz, though infuriated, decided to retreat, but suddently a volley of rockets has covered the battlefield, leaving havoc among Crocs' and Wolves' lines. ChiMech - Eagle Diving by The Mugbearer, on Flickr A majestic shadow has screened the sun, and a white and blue lightning swooped across the battlefield. Lions rejoiced, for Eris, who managed to reach her people and give them the blueprint, piloted the brand-new Eagle ChiMech that brought the balance and tilted the scales in their favor. Eris changed her flight mode on the fly, hovering near the Laval's ChiMech, ready to unleash another salvo at the Crocs heads. Feeling that this is good time to disappear, Worriz commanded retreat and Wolves left Cragger and his goons alone on the smoking field. The battle was won. ChiMech - Eagle Hovering Mode by The Mugbearer, on Flickr Lagravis ordered everybody to immediately extract the ChiCores from their Mechs and never ever use them again. He found a place at the Temple where Cores could be kept in safety and in a few days every Chi Core that Mount Cavora produced have been found and brought to the Lion Temple. But Laval still felt uneasy: something told him that this isn't the last time he's seen Chi Cores, and the day will come when ChiMechs will be needed again. And he swore to be prepared and asked his father's permission to keep Lion and Eagle ChiMechs intact. Worriz and Cragger did the same without anyone's permission, but since the blueprint was destroyed - by Lagravis's orders, of course, nobody could make any more of those powerful and dangerous machines of war. ChiMech - Eagle Cockpit by The Mugbearer, on Flickr One day Lion guards discovered that one of Chi Cores has disappeared, and found a black feather lying under empty pedestal... To be continued?..

Hello, one and all! Today I present a project hours in the making, With a result that can only be described as amazingly average! Ladies and Mentlegen, I give you... IGNIS AND PYRAM APART, THESE POWERFUL GUNMEN ARE MORE THAN CAPABLE OF FIGHTING THEIR ENEMIES. HOWEVER, WHEN COMBINED, THEY FORM A POWER GREATER THAN ANY SINGLE GUNMEN. TOGETHER, THEY ARE... IGNIS PYRAM! WAIT A SECOND! WHAT'S THIS?! A CHALLENGER HAS APPEARED! IT'S THE FUSION MACH 5 FROM THE TITANS VS MONSTERS CONTEST! THIS POWERFUL MONSTER IS MADE OUT OF 5 MONSTERS COMBINED! DOES IGNIS PYRAM HAVE ANY HOPE OF WINNING?! Any hope of winning? Just who the Karzahni... Do you think I am?! EH. HE'LL PROBABLY BE FINE. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AUTHOR'S NOTES Okay, first off, if you can't tell what anime this MOC is based off of, just watch this. If that still didn't tip you off, just read the tags. More observant viewers may note that a good chunk of Pyram is actually from my BBCC #66 entry. I just figured what remained of it would work well with the aesthetics. Speaking of which, I couldn't add a cockpit to Pyram without making it look awkward, so I left it out entirely. It still has the Shadow Leech in it from before, though, so that could count. Also, trying to build something to convert a Toa Mata body into a cockpit? Not easy. You can view the full album, including high-def pictures, right over here. Comments? Questions? Criticisms? Leave them all down in the comments ection below, because that's what it's there for!

"Hey, you there! Yeah, you!" "Got problems? Got people you need hunted down? No job's too tough for me, R3X The Bounty Hunter! Whether it's a bail jumper, a deadbeat, or just that one guy you really hate, I can track 'em down across the galaxy for as low as 60,000 credits per individual! I also do pest control." Front Left Right Back Pose 1 Pose 2 Pose 3 Full Gallery (When Public) Another MOC, this time, a robot. Tried to make him as poseable as possible while staying within a certain size. Very few fiddly connections, and he's surprisingly sturdy, all things considered.

Hello BZP, been a while since I've done anything more than lurk. I was feeling sort of nostalgic, so I decided to do a quick painting of everyone's favorite (and only) toa-piloted mecha. I didn't use any reference while drawing it, so some parts are... well, the whole thing is wildly inaccurate, but some parts are more inaccurate than I intended. I present to you, Tahu's customized exo-toa. Edit: Well, I'll leave the original post for posterity. I ended up drawing some more things after all, let's see if I can't keep them in some sort of order. Tahu's Exo Toa : Front line defender type. Originally a one-off sketch of a heavily modified exo-toa, with emphasis on interesting/strange proportions. Pohatu's Exo Toa : Speedy recon type. Internal structure sketch : Just trying to figure out proportions and structure for myself, if I'm going to draw several of these, I'm going to want some consistency. I've decided to make the large upper legs and bulky collar in to defining features of these units. I Might have to drew a new structure with more thought put in to how these would actually work; I'd like to include some amount of organic components. Gali's ET sketch : Some visual thoughts on the amphibious type.

So. Guillermo del Toro. Giant monsters getting punched by equally giant robots. Homages to old school mecha and kaiju flicks like no tomorrow. Promised rocket punches. Anyone else hyped to go see this? Looks fantastic, gonna try to see it on the opening day,

Hi guys, these are just various mechs that I build. (I call him X2's little brother) More will come!

So yes, I tried my own version of Felix the Cat's F33 battle drones, and he enjoyed it. After F33-X2 and F33-X3, here is F33-X4, designed for icy areas and for pilots, something that has never been seen before. It has got a Heat Blade to melt ice and a transparent Frost Gun to freeze foes.Main PicI'm using two Piece Out Techniques here: Lord Oblivion's modified hand/system connection and my Rahkshi/Hero foot combo which can work as something else than foot.

Discussion of the development of and news about the upcoming movie Pacific Rim, due out next summer. News so far has been relatively slow, but will hopefully pick up as the movie enters post-production.The film will be about a series of monster attacks on coastal cities around the Pacific Ocean (hence the title) and the battles with the 'Jaeger' mechs built by humans to combat them. So think of this as Transformers meets Good Moviemaking, with some Evangelion thrown into the premise for good measure (except for the fact that the pilots aren't mentally scarred children).And given what Del Toro has said about the fight scenes so far, this is going to definitely be one of those movies I'll have to see on opening night. So... thoughts? While I was a bit suspicious at first because of the premise's similarity to Neon Genesis Evangelion, I was quickly relieved when I found out that the rest of the plot was nothing like it. And in addition to the fact that a real live-action Eva movie would probably suck, this will most likely satisfy my desire for big-screen mecha for the time being.

Another recent MOC, built shortly before Stoxutu. Unlike Stoxutu, however, this guy is entirely Bionicle, using the slightly greebly aesthetic Bionicle had in abundance instead of the smoother HF aesthetic. May have been partially inspired by the Space Pirates from Metroid Prime. Credit to Shine for the foot design, although his version used Bohrok eyes rather than their teeth. "His mother was right. His face did freeze like that." ^Gallery^ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1011 12 13 14 15 16 17 Given that this is a mech, the head is supposed to be an eternally snarling death's head, rather than a truly functioning one. Hence the quote. Enjoy! ~B~

The recent MOC of my latest blog entry, made over April Fools Day weekend. As I said there, it incorporates HF and Bionicle in a way that I think was pretty satisfactory. So, without much further ado, here we go! ^Link to Gallery^ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 It's a mecha. That's fiery. And has cool chest blasters because come on who doesn't like those. The fins on its back and head dissipate heat, more or less. The Lehrak staff on the head is supposed to be a crown-like ornament as well.Also blargh this thing did not like being photographed. That last foot joint collapsed five to six times during photography. I guess it doesn't like standing on paper over carpet, because it did just fine in my room for days beforehand. Anyway, there might have been more pictures but I raged at my camera and quit. So there. Comments appreciated. ~B~

^Click for Flickr gallery^ Further enhancement of the F33-type Mecha. Some of you may have seen F33-X2 before? Well this is the next step up. Mainly 'cos it's got teal and such. Anyway, C&C is always appreciated, folks. -FtC

I'm baaaack! I know I missed a while. That's due to school, and another password forgetting. But now, BZPers, I'm back for good and next time I'll miss a while, it'll mean we'll be in Downtime Era.Here's another MOC of mine, probably one of my best actually. This is a mecha named Shieldask, made for my second MOC-off in the Piece Out group, against christo1096.GalleryAnd, guess what, the nuhvok shield used as head has no connection points what-so-ever. It's simply stuck between the three wheel pieces.Enjoy! C&C welcomed as always.

We have a Gundam thread. Why not have a Macross thread as well? Yes, this is because I'm more of a Macross fan then a GANDAMU fan.Was watching Seven and Frontier, but life called me away from finishing them.
