Kitbash Parts Quiz Challenge - Marauder?

All right!  It's time to test your parts knowledge.

Attached is a new kitbash that many should recognize.  The goal here is to identify as many of the bit sources as possible.

I can tell you that there are bits from 6 other figures in here, two of which are not remotely BattleTech Related.

I will come back with the answers in a weak.

Now, I will give you some scale comparisons to help you.

Maybe it's a BattleForce scale Marauder.  Or, possibly, it's a map scale Glaug Officer Pod for Macross/Robotech.  Or...

Look at the Glaug officer's pod from RoboTech/Macross and get back to me. And, if that's your answer, you failed the quiz.  The idea was to identify the parts used.

I see it must've been too complex for people to try hazarding a guess.

Well, parts source list:
Dark Age Spider - Dorsal gun base and Cockpit canopy
Dark Age Locust - Arm pods and legs and toes
Dark Age Fenrir BA - Upper arms and upper legs and feet balls
Dark Age Forestry Mech - Upper arms
Monsterpocalypse Guard Rocket Chopper - Body
Robotech RPG Tactics Missile - Dorsal gun barrel

Note: I liked the look of the modified Rocket chopper that I'm making a second one without the cockpit covered over. Pics when done.
