This is one of the many MOCs I have been building.

A special thank you to Iamded for giving me the inspiration of his wonderful APC.

Here's the Beetle.

Here is the front, it is quite wide.

Profile shot showing this fat bugger.

License plate and 24 round missile rack.

Overhead shot of the entire thing.

The interior shot I always include in my MOCs.

20 tons of pure power baby!

Comments and feedback are appreciated!

Well it looks nice, I'm just curious how this is an Armored Personnel Carrier 8-|

...I hadn't thought of that....The missile rack does come out though. It's very large....like a walrus I know...

Very nice! A fitting name, and it looks really heavily armoured too! Although I did wonder how it was a personal carrier when until SirNadroj mentioned it. X-D It's good to know the missile rack can come out. Those Rock Raiders vehicle plates sure are useful huh! :-D (Quoted straight from the pm :-P )

The pipes look cool, and yours has lights unlike mine. *y* I figured the Necrobots could see in the dark. :-P The guns are also neat utilising those technic pieces. *y*

~Peace

I noticed that was straight from the PM...you cheapskate X-D just kidding. I have a thing for those Technic pieces *wub*

I think I picked a good driver cause that face looks very hyped up to me!

Cool! It looks like Batman's aircraft tug!

It's very large....like a walrus I know...

I only weigh 95 KG... 8-|

Wow, that

Nice Beetle, here *y*

I like the big wheels, and the fact it is so low on the ground: it makes it seem the more like a crawling bug.

The cockpit is great, with that big steering-wheel *wub*

And you seem to have quite a lot of rockets back there!

The one thing I'd suggest you is to put a turnable little Vulcan or similar gun on the top of the cockpit (or two on the sides): the front cannons (if they are cannons 8-| ) are good, but a gun that can cover a wilder angle is even better ;-)

Here is the updated pics of my APC. I changed the guns, the pilot and the back of it. Enjoy!

Here is the front.

Here's the wheels with the new rims.

Here is the new back.

Heres another overall pic.

Here's the last shot showing the new pilot and the new guns.

Tell me what you think *y* or *n*

Definitely *y*

This is brilliant, I can definitely see it teaming up with iamded's vehicle! :-D

I love the front, and how the back slopes down. The trans cones at the back actually look really cool! *y*

To be honest I think this is perfect, I seriously can't think of anything I don'y like about it :-$

Even the use of silver pipes is awesome! I also love just how compact it is!

Very welldone Exo-Builder!

To the Brickmobile! >:-)

Thank you for the nice comments Batbrick, Asuka, Iamded, Sinner, SW4J and LuxorV! I guess someday Iamded and I will team up X-D Thank you especially for commentin on all of m MOCs Iamded and Batbrick!

*y*

This is super-cool, it's gonna take a lot of firepower to knock this thing over, I can imagine it just advancing remorselessly, shrugging off all incoming fire and wasting everything in its path...

I would suggest you call it something other than an APC though as I wouldn't want to be sat at the back with a load of missiles. :-D

It's so wide, deceptively so from the first picture - I reckon this baby would be good in any terrain with the weight spread so evenly - must make it a very stable weapon platform.

*y* *y*

Dr. S.

It gives me the impression it has high survivability, and I like the wide, squat look. *y*

this reminds me of a turtle from zoids (old anime, google it if you havent seen it) I forgot what it was called though. it had a giant cannon but was rediculously slow. powerful but an easy target. I;m not sure how fast this things go, but it sure looks powerful!

two thumbs up!

Thanks for the excellent comments Doctor Sinister! I would like to change the APC part but I don't think I can 8-| Anyway, It's great hearing these comments about my stuff from someone such as you.

Thanks ZeekyBoogeyDoog! It has high survivability that part is true! :-D

Thanks! I've never heard of zoids though, I'm not sure how fast it goes either, considering it's in the MOC graveyard :'-(

oh. *sad* Zoids used to be on cartoon network in the u.s., i think. *wacko*

oh well, not that it matters much.

I can definitely see the inspiration from iamded but have to say I do like your version better. Lol, the "little bugger" I like the plated armor angling down, really does resemble a beatle, and what a fearsome missle rack, however, if it's supposed to be an APC then where are the troops and how come there's so much glass in the front? I do like the detailing in the interior though.

Cool, but the missile rack needs a hatch, to open and close it. ;-) One stray enemy shot and the beetle is done for. X-D

As I have said multiple times, I didn't mean it to be called an APC! Thanks for the comments! What do you mean by the armor angling down Piranha?

Yes it does need a hatch, it's too late though, it's in the MOC graveyard *skull*

Thanks for the comments 0!

Lol, yes, it kinda does look like a Cannon Tortoise! Well...not too much. It's awesome. I did an APC like this years ago. But mine's all...colorful. Of course, it's not as smooth looking.

The Beetle looks great!

I think that because it is so wide and low it has very little maneuverability. I would suggest some independent suspension, or at least raising the chassis a bit.

I would angle the armor like on a T-34 so that it is safe from small arms fire.

Since this is a support vehicle (being artillery) I think you should include a trailer (Armored, Angled) or supple vehicle with more ammo, as well as a crew.

Show us what those missiles look like! Not only the explosive tip!

Do you have pics of your APC? I'd like to see them if you do. Thanks!

Well as I have said atleast four times, this is in the MOC graveyard. There's not much suspension options on this one that I know of! Thanks for the comments you two!

Dang, how could I forget a name like Cannon Tortoise! thanks for reminding me, dino.

Man, If only we could find a pic of the Cannon Tortoise...

I remember zoids on CN! They had a couple different seasons, but dang, they looked so cool.

Well, it ain't LEGO, but here's your turtle.

Thanks, MicVash! Thats what I thought your beetle looked like, Exo! X-D
