Homebrew #16 the BDR-22
« on: 07 May 2017, 05:13:50 »
Well, after building that Ostroc a week or so ago, I just couldn't walk away without finishing the series.

So here's a Bending Unit 22, mounted on my standard hex base, and all ready for punching another bot right in the girders.
These units are beer-powered instead of fusion powered, as you well know, which makes for an interesting logistics puzzle to work out.







And yes, Clamps, Roberto, and Hedonismbot are all on the list as candidates to fill out the Lance.

I'm now considering whether the Planet Express Ship could serve well enough as an aerodyne drop ship.

Awesome  O0!  All he needs is a bottle of beer in one of those empty hands  :D

I was thinking about having him wave a broken-off beer bottle as a weapon. . .but then, you see, I am working on introducing a bunch of Grade 6-8 kids at my local school library to BattleTech, and I'd hate to have to leave this particular little figure at home.
