Storm Ogre

[Fed]

Storm Ogre (Japanese Name: Arashi-No-Oni = "Oni/Ogre of the Storms)

(I'm playing it straight... bear with me... :-P )

Hayato's aerial assault mech and early prototype for his future unit. The Storm Ogre features a vast array of verniers and thrusters to push this large unit around. The mech sports a staggering amount of beam weaponry due to vents that allow it to dissipate heat quickly. For brickshelf gallery, click here.

Despite being huge, the Storm Ogre is nimble and able to react quickly to incoming threats.

It can use the extended forearms for shields, and the mech is fully melee capable - dominating other mechs through sheer strength.

The Particle Cannon is a weapon unto itself and can be mounted on either mech hand. (Based on a Brionne Wokurka Ldraw Gun design at Mechahub.com - I gotta give credit to the original inspiration for it, but it's modified based on my current available pieces.)

The Left shoulder of the mech is a chain gun, while the right has 2 particle beams. The head has a mounted deadly Omega Beam that fires with deadly accuracy. (I couldn't photograph the LED light effect properly...)

(Back view of the mecha. I stressed front detail like the other Exo-Force mechs. Note the connection of the Led Light to the back of the head.

(The secret to the long lower leg.)

The Storm Ogre was made out of 5 sets with around 380 pieces:

7700 Stealth Hunter

7701 Grand Titan

7702 Thunder Fury

7703 Fire Vulture

7705 Gate Assault

No pieces were used outside of the sets (they're basically the only new Lego sets I have so far...)

I guess you've read my comments on the other forum, but I'll still like to say:

COOL MECHA... Nice work. *y*

Yeah, like I said on the EXFN, it is really cool. I especially like the gun.

I'm not a huge fan of Exo-Force MOCs (mainly because I look at the whole series as an excuse for a parts pack), but I have to say that yours looks really good. Interesting design that deviates enough from the EF standard for me X-D And using only those small number of sets? Very well done :-)

Nice Mecha! Love the details, and the gun is pure sweet. Kutgw!
