Title: Jumping Atlas vs standard Atlas
Post by: MoneyLovinOgre4Hire on 21 November 2018, 23:13:55

Hey, I was wondering, aside from the jump jets on the back, does the Jumping Atlas mini differ from the current regular Atlas mini?  I was looking at pictures online but the angles are different (and not helped by the different paint jobs) so I can't tell if there are any differences in details or things like arm thickness.

Thickness, no. The arm position is altered; the jumping version has one arm bent more like it's winding up to punch something. I think that's the only other change. It's been a long time since I've painted one.

Thanks, that's why I asked.  The pics I found made the jumping Atlas look chunkier but I couldn't tell if that was an optical illusion.

The legs are different also.

I will post pics of both later after work.

The jumping mechs you are paying for the flame and smoke of the jump jet. It makes the mini pretty expensive with the extra pewter

There's also the jump jet backpack.
