Trionx Posted March 1, 2007 Posted March 1, 2007 I was looking though my lego photos when I saw this MOC I made a few years ago: (link) the photos are too big to put on here, but I can get the thumbnails (BTW sorry if I don't have that many photos,when I took these pics I wasn't thinking that I would post them online ): Now this I think was one of my greatest MOC's, it was very big and it used up all my black bricks. :-P The legs took me the longest to build but I think that if I rebuild this model (I'm planning on that soon and put it in this topic ) I'll add armor to them since, as you see from the photo, they're very thin and easy to break. I'm not sure why I made this piloted by clones *wacko* I think it was for a contest or something. a pic of how far the legs could go. A battleground with the tripod about to enter. A photo of the tripod and a smashed ATT tank. Now the moment you've been waiting for... Tripod 2.0: This one I think is at least twice as big as the first one. shame that I don't have it to compare too. :-( I have a small speeder that is a real set, but I made it so it can be put on the back of the Tripod. (A photo of the speeder) One of the "arms" on the Tripod"s bottom, I had to take apart my only Doc Ock to build them *sing* A better pic of the superlaser, for this (and some parts on the legs) I had to take apart Striking venom :'-( but the superlaser came out good I think. *y* As you can see here, the cockpit and the legs can be separated. A better view of the turntable. A close-up view of the cockpit, what upsets me about this is that I can fit at LEAST 7 aliens in there (full view of the cockpit) but I only have one minialien. |-/ As you can guess, I can't wait for the "Mars Mission" sets to come out. *wub* A side-by-side view with Tripod 2.0 and a Exo-force mech, plus a photo of the EF pilot next to the Tripod. (you might have to click the photo to see the minifig) These are most of the photos that I took, you can see the rest here, if you want me to take a photo of a part not on here, please ask in this topic. :-) Quote
Trionx Posted March 2, 2007 Author Posted March 2, 2007 Thats where I got the Idea from, :-P I'm kinda a big WOTW fan :-$ EDIT: I forgot to say that Tripod 2.0 is half done, it should be up on here later today. Quote
Asuka Posted March 2, 2007 Posted March 2, 2007 Sounds great. BTW, what was your primarily inspiration, the novel or one of the film adapations? Quote
Trionx Posted March 2, 2007 Author Posted March 2, 2007 It was the 2005 one. I saw an early photo of a tripod and I made a MOC of it. BTW, I took photos of Tripod 2.0. *y* They should be up in a couple of seconds. Quote
Asuka Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 Wow. That new Tripod is looking sooo good! Great leg improvement, very impressive weapons, cool tentacles, and even some "real" Martian stuff! This is a beautiful MOC, very original and lovely! *y* That's what it reminded me of too, only I was thinking about the more recent version That picture looks very interesting, but I Quote
Optimax X Posted March 3, 2007 Posted March 3, 2007 Aiiiiiie! Everyone run! Scary looking battle machine, good reminicant of the war of the worlds tri-pods. I like the black colour scheme, it makes it look very threataning and scary. Quote

exo attack Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 Hey, this is really cool. I like the design of the back foot, Although you may want to put joints in the legs so it can be really like a WOTW tripod. Quote
dillthepill Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 Very cool. Is this your first Exo-Force battle machine? Keep up the great work. Off Topic: exo attack, I like your new avatar. ;-) Quote
exo attack Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 Oh crap, the legs are jointed. I was looking at the wrong pic. off topic: I made since I am slowly but surely beginging a love for pirates, but still liking EF the same. Quote
Starwars4J Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 Very cool. Is this your first Exo-Force battle machine? Keep up the great work.Off Topic: exo attack, I like your new avatar. ;-) No offense Dill, but I don't think this was Exo-Force...since he seems to have made it before the theme came out :-P Quote
Trionx Posted March 4, 2007 Author Posted March 4, 2007 No offense Dill, but I don't think this was Exo-Force...since he seems to have made it before the theme came out :-P Yeah, the first tripod i made in 2005, and the second one I made a few days ago, (and dill, the first one is a star wars model, and the second is a War of the Worlds) Quote
dillthepill Posted March 4, 2007 Posted March 4, 2007 No offense Dill, but I don't think this was Exo-Force...since he seems to have made it before the theme came out :-P I'M NOT OFFENDED!!! >:-( JK :-P Yeah, the first tripod i made in 2005, and the second one I made a few days ago, (and dill, the first one is a star wars model, and the second is a War of the Worlds) Oh. They still look sort of exo-forceish. I like the second version a lot because of the powerful laser cannons. Quote
