Had no idea a new contest went up! As luck would have it, I bought this kit already because I thought the robot was cool. Now to come up with something.

Ordered! As with the last contest, the set isn't in shops nearby. And refusing to pay the cost of the set on shipping means I should have it a few days before the deadline... Here's hoping...
I'm looking forward to it. I've never seriously MOCed.
 
Alright I finally finished -

It's a camera! (and a roll of film)

Thanks for letting me enter! This was also my first time, and it was fun!
 
Alright here goes nothing, my first ever MOC attempt at microscale, so be gentle ;)


It is the year 2245, this is the "Emerald Fortress" High Security Prison.
To the rear left you can spot the main prison tract and to your right you see the solitary confinement cell for the worst of the worst:




The equally imposing and foreboding front gate symbolizes the obvious, once you get in here, you're here to stay:




Right in the middle of the prison grounds stands the main control surveillance tower which is authorized to fire at will on sight of any unlucky escapees. To your rear right is the personnel barracks:




Here we are in the middle of a prisoner transport. You can see in the front the heavily armored prison transport shuttle, not far behind is the escort/protection shuttle.




These are the leftover parts then:

 
Just so you know.
My MBPr is having its screen replaced, due to ghosting.
So it'll be a few days till I update the op.
great new entries though :)

Allow me to introduce to you the newest in state of the art law enforcement. BRICK-209. (Brick Robot Intended only to Crush and Kill. Series 209).


Front side on display. Weapons systems on stand by.


Rear thrusters in case BRICK-209 needs an extra boost for speed or jumps.


Weapons systems fully deployed.


"YOU WILL BUY MORE LEGO SETS AND LIKE IT. YOU HAVE TEN SECONDS TO COMPLY!"


"YOU HAVE FIVE SECONDS TO COMPLY!"


Shoulder mounted heavy cannons. Missile launcher array opened up. Movable arms with machine guns for firing in most directions.


Close up of the rear thrusters to assist in jumps and quick speed bursts.


Close up of the main "head" area of the mech.

Heavily inspired by Mech Warrior designs and obviously ED-209 from Robocop. I had done a traditional vehicle, a monster, and two VERY off the wall builds that I will post in the LEGO thread or once the contest is done. Was tempted to post the really out there ideas, but they were not as polished.

Either way, I have accepted my fate to lose to the tractor. That is seriously badass work done by Ironmask.

thanks guys, keep up the good work everybody! I'm seeing so many good techniques in your MOCs and the competition is still long to an end :)

I have just finished building the Power Mech and I have problem that I do not want to take it apart again. Will probably build the my MOC on Thursday or Friday. I have a couple of ideas, I hope one of them will be decent :)

That was a great MOC, that was levels above what I thought possible. Good work!

I like that you got a Mech that can bend its legs. Something I missed on the power mech.
 
This set was on sale at my Walmart, so bought an extra one for the Prize Pool. (Mine will be a part of the Haunted House's backyard - whenever I buy that set.)

I can ship within the US.

XF-2451 Walking Tank

Developed during the second robot war, the XF-2451 walker was designed for fast maneuverability in vehicle mode while still having the ability to operate within tight city streets with walker mode engaged.

Featuring Sefar Industries Particle cannon and Mag-Dazon Driven Missile pods, this Walking Tank was a powerful weapon for the United Earth Military during the twilight days of the war.

Nice one! Especially that vehicular mode looks great!

About your leftover parts though, i LOVE what you done here, that thing to the left looks like it could be some really neat swamp speeder thing, almost edging out your main creation as far as i am concerned ;P

Agree but I was thinking microbuild space.

WOW. This thread is so great. That Tractor and Mech. They are both amazing. This is such a great way of showing why LEGO is amazing.

This Mech reminds me of a Jenner from Mech Warrior Online.

thanks for the input guys!

I love making different type of leg articulations with mechs and this kit and a surpising amount if joint parts.

I just happened to have a lot of spare pieces so I tend to make something out of them.
 
I made a Praying Mantis and it's prey. EDIT: I just noticed I had 2 different eye styles in the pictures. I went with the downward looking as my final, but the other picture captured the model better so I'm keeping the pic here anyway!
