Commander Turtle Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 Greater Direstan Mission control. "Commander, can you give an update on your current scenario?" "I am approaching the drilling coordinates. The land here is fertile but does not appear to have much in the way of sentient life. Hold on, I may have to reconsider that. I see something..." "Commander, what is it you see?" "Only the cutest little thing! Isn't it sweet? Can you see it on my vid stream?" "Yes Commander, very sweet. How long until you reach the coordinates?" "I'm taking it with us." "Sir, are you entirely sure-" "As your commanding officer, I am entirely sure that this little thing is adorable!" More: Dead pleased with the mech here, it was meant to be a "quick" build so it only took twice as long as expected. A little bit of gold to set it off, it looked dull with just the two company colours. Inspired by the Samurai Mech set, one of the great sets that I bet the current generation will be nostalgic about in a decade! And a wider angle view of the support desk: Mandatory Flickr link. Quote
Dragonfire Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 Nice mech! I agree that the Samurai Mech is one of the best mechs Lego has ever made. I would laugh if the small turtle turned out to be highly toxic and vicious... Quote
TheUtilityBelt Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 I would laugh if the small turtle turned out to be highly toxic and vicious... Agreed! They'll probably make it part robot. The support desk is nice and the six-shooter fingers are a nice idea! Quote
Commander Turtle Posted June 7, 2015 Author Posted June 7, 2015 I would laugh if the small turtle turned out to be highly toxic and vicious... I will neither confirm nor deny what my future plans with this turtle may be! Quote
Graham Gidman Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 Ooh, that's awesome! Glad to see you building with real bricks again, too. Quote
Boxerlego Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 Wow, Amazing work on the mech design! That is a interesting story line about the turtle. Quote
soccerkid6 Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 Good use of the six shooter pistols, and I like the drill arm design Quote
mccoyed Posted June 7, 2015 Posted June 7, 2015 I love that mech's feet. Good use of photoshop for the communications array, too. I'm guessing it's shopped anyway! Quote
NuckElBerg Posted June 8, 2015 Posted June 8, 2015 Great build Turtle! Love the Samurai-ish design, fits very well with the Kawashita Group design! Quote
EpsilonEta Posted June 8, 2015 Posted June 8, 2015 (edited) I will neither confirm nor deny what my future plans with this turtle may be! Maybe he wasn't known as "Commander Turtle" until he found a turtle like alien. (or he could mutate it with Awesomnium and train it in Japanese martial arts ) And a nice mech too.

Kai NRG Posted June 8, 2015 Posted June 8, 2015 Great work on the mech! Nice use of revolvers for the fingers! Quote
