One of my favorite LEGO MOCers out there, Chokolat Shadow AKA PixelMeCrazy has worked with a brand new idea in his head. What if we had some adrenaline yunkies racing mechs in mixed disciplines at absurd speeds? This is exactly what GIGAS is all about! A racing mech built to excel in any of the competition modes the MRL has to offer.
In his own words and terms:
"Let me start by introducing the MRL, The Mecha Racing League.
This is a new project I want to try and you are all invited to join, the idea is to build Mechs that will participate in ground races, where there are 3 modes:
Speed: A race to the goal with different obstacles.
Rumble: A Battle in the likes of roller derby.
Combo: Capture the flag mode, where Speeders and Rumblers mix in teams to defend and capture flags.
If you want to join the fun, and build your own MLR racer, just follow these simple rules:
- The mech must have a pilot, and the pilot has to be “racer cool” (You know what I mean, like a personality)
- Define your mech type, speed or rumble, name it and sell the concept, all mech must be ground based, they can jump or hover for limited time, but this is about ground racing.
- No guns or weapons, this is about speed or headbutting with other mechs
Now, the showcase:
Name: GIGAS
Type: Rumble
Pilot: Niko Rocco
Special Ability: Hyper ram!
Description: Gigas was build for speed and strength! It will hit hard, but the armor is not as heavy as to be a full defence rumble mech, the arm wheels allow for a high speed low ground charge (Hyper Ram!) that will take down anything in front of it, but the downside, the turning of the move is limited"
