Dunno what sparked the interest to make this but i went to work on it then i saw the Joecustoms Non-Joe Challenge "like a Boss" and was going to enter it but its not a boss it just sits in the game (Non-Nes Version)
as you wire explosives to it
Parts are going to be tricky
Main pieces are a POC Joe Marauder Mech with parts of a Star Wars clone wars trooper mech and a ton of broken Joe/Transformer/and random fodder dremeled down and glued on
loads of sculpting on it (which i am not to happy with but it works)
from what i could tell from the screenshot the Mech appears greenish if its not oh well it was housed in a Jungle so green kinda makes sense
I tossed in my Contra guy to show scale its pretty close me thinks
i know the front guns are supposed to be mini Vulcan guns i improvised on mine and made em mortarr llaunchers and the side nose guns can be the mini Vulcan canons

Why of why can't we see this at retail, so everyone can get one?
Just beautiful, man.

I think you nailed the look perfectly, from the parts to the paints, just awesome.

Instant buy if I saw it at retail. This thing is a work of art!

I'd actually forgotten you didn't really fight any Metal Gears in the first game, time to go back and play it! :D

I think you could have gotten away with "sneaking" it into the NJC, but I've got a feeling it would have dominated the voting.

Really great work man.

The finished product is even better than I expected after seeing the WIP pictures. Fantastic work on this.

Anyone recognize the canopy? I think that and the big rocket pods really sell the design as the Metal Gear mech.
