LEGO MOC: Meet ARMT-M01X-SR Dash Baron



Created by Lu Sim, this gorgeous giant is battle mech that deserves some recognition. Here we extend and share some details taken directly from his Flickr account.
ARMaTech

Effective Range: N/A - Civilian Use

Classification: Racing - MRL Rumbler

Armaments: N/A

A heavily modified version of the Baron Prototype, the DASH Baron was made purely to compete in the Mecha Racing League. Designed to withstand a beating during races while still maintaining high top speeds, the DASH is definitely something you should watch out for in MRL.


Pilot: Baron Ishi

No one knows for certain if Baron Ishi is his real name or if he's even a human being but his patient yet deadly driving style has earned him a reputation in the league. Some say he's actually a cyborg with an advanced AI program designed by ARMaTech to drive their hulking speedster mech while others swear he's just a really cold human being, sick of piloting war machines and opts to drive a humanoid coffin at high speeds instead.

Special Ability: Shell Rush

Using both heavy arm guards, the DASH will charge towards an opposing mech, crushing them with deadly blunt force.

Special Ability: DASH Rush

The special Quorus heatsinks at the rear of the DASH activates and grants the reFrame increased speed, mobility, and reaction time although using this ability puts a lot of stress on the machine and can only be used once or twice before having the heatsinks replaced.
