I am rather partial to smaller, faster walkers.
About this creation
With the threat of the rapidly expanding C.O.P. forces, the UNE's scientists and engineers put their heads together to come up with a mech that was harder, better, faster, and stronger than anything the C.O.P. had seen before. Though not possessing the astounding size of the Harbinger, this baby sprints along at an astounding 75mph! (hence it's name) The Roadrunner is armed with two MkII missile pods (4 missiles in total) and an experimental plasma cannon. This is also my first mech where the legs bend outwards, giving it the ability for an "action stance".
Unfortunately, this mech's cock-pit is only two studs wide, so I had to remove the pilot's arms, but whatever.
Left side, with the missile pods.
The back. Nothing else to say, really.
Right side, with the experimental plasma cannon.
The 'runner also features a wide variety of sensors to both find it's and it's enemies position on the battlefield.
The plasma cannon. Nothe the yellow plasma capsules as opposed to the C.O.P. green.
Some detail on the thigh.
The feet. The two studs on the flippy-bendy piece are white, but I was too tired/lazy to find two grey ones.
Missile pods. These were made quickly, with not much attention to detail, but once again, whatever.
I suppose these are it's hips......
The offer is always out to JOIN THE UNE!

Awesome! I have to admit, a fast moving and pretty heavily armed mech? That is what the U.N.E. needs, as they already have enough heavier, slower moving vehicles. Great job! |

The Plasma cannon is so awesome! I love the details of the weapons, legs, ...uhm of everything, I guess. However, the name is really good for it, because it looks really fast. P.S.: You have got that right with my mech stile :). |

HAZEs can jump, like Metal Gear Gekkos, should your assault crafts try to get them and even if they should take them out, I still have my G-1 fleet, they would get your little flying things. |

It looks a little messy in my opinion, but to each his own, I suppose. However, also in my opinion, double amputees should not be put in command of giant bipedal machineries of death and destruction on an epic scale. |

Offically your best mech to date! Despite what you said about the missle pods, I think they look great. The sheer compact design and size really makes the mech. I need to finish mine. It's just I can't find the right design for the head and weapon systems. Maybe I'll post a WIP. |

Actually it can, but I totally forgot to take pictures of that. The legs bend at the knee, at the hips, and the ankle. |

Pretty awesome walker-mech! But I just miss a big rifle-gun somewhere. In my opinion, every mech has to have an antiperson gun.
But that plasma cannon is awesome, and I see you used my assault rifle design in your soldiers :)
Why wouldn't I? It's a great design. |
