raptormesh Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 (edited) Recently showcased at Wonfes, here's an instructional video on this new $1mil plus holy grail...(Pic from Gigazine.net) Funny video, to say the least. SMILE SHOT GO! Edited July 29, 2012 by raptormesh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renegadeleader1 Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 compare the cost of this early stage mecha at roughly 1 million versus a M1 Abrams at 6-8 million. To make this combat effective: Needs an engine that can sustain at least 45 MPH fully loaded. Each of the four legs need larger tires and reinforced independent suspension Legs need wider spacing for more stability Remove 1 gatling gun in favor of more ammo or both for larger 30mm avenger cannon Arms need enough strength to push mech back up if toppled over Optional shoulder mounted M256 smoothbore cannon "snub nose variant" with autoloader Expanded cockpit for two crew(driver and gunner) Other thoughts: Smiling fires the guns? Anyone that operates this will run out of ammo in 10 seconds Why hasn't anyone tried mount the avenger cannon on a small fast vehicle for anti tank duty? I wonder how ED-209 would fare running on those legs Truckasaurus has a new rival at monster truck rallies God help the world if I ever get my hands on one of these Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old_Nash Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 But does it come in black? I think a repaint with Hikaru's color scheme... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GU-11 Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 So it's begun.... Now all we need is to start a global war and get some androgynous emo teenage kids to pilot these things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeyondTheGrave Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 (edited) Reminds me of the Sentry Bots from Fallout. compare the cost of this early stage mecha at roughly 1 million versus a M1 Abrams at 6-8 million. To make this combat effective: Needs an engine that can sustain at least 45 MPH fully loaded. Each of the four legs need larger tires and reinforced independent suspension Legs need wider spacing for more stability Remove 1 gatling gun in favor of more ammo or both for larger 30mm avenger cannon Arms need enough strength to push mech back up if toppled over Optional shoulder mounted M256 smoothbore cannon "snub nose variant" with autoloader Expanded cockpit for two crew(driver and gunner) I doubt that frame could support a fully loaded Avenger cannon Unless you used it like Vulcan Raven Edited July 30, 2012 by BeyondTheGrave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mecha2241 Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 I'm still trying to figure out how a GASOLINE ENGINE runs on DIESEL fuel... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeyondTheGrave Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 I thought the same thing. Along with 10kph is not very fast if it rolls over you're screwed And the hydraulics are too slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
