Question of the Day, May 13, 2010

[Capt. Crankypants]

I never quite understood why japanese robot things needed to HOLD a rifle thing. Surely it would be sturdier and MUCH simpler to just integrate a cannon onto the chassis? And why do the robots need humanesque features like eyebrows?... Actually, there are plenty bigger problems with the concept than those, so I'll just let it go.

O.T. Yes, I agree with mister Hurr Durr Derp. Doesn't matter where Battletech comes from, it should definately be their next project, and I don't mean a model either, I mean a prototype. Ah, anything can happen in "should-land".

(Right now wondering whether he's going to recieve lots of hate from the japanese robot lovers or not, let's find out)

(Yes I realise the Battletech machines are an equally flawed concept, but at least they look a TINY bit realistic)

Okay, I know I already nominated the Death Saurer, but I have to change that. I'm kicking myself for forgetting at the time of my previous post, my favourite Mecha anime series - Kishin Taisen Gigantic Formula.

So to rectify that, I nominate the final form of Susanoo.

Spoiler

Sorry about the blurriness of the pictures, but the Mech is glowing constantly at this point.

 

[Twilight_guy]

Chibi-Robo!! wait...

Actually, although it won't happen, it'd be cool if they built an AT-AT.

Something tells me that the chances of the Japanese building Megas XLR are slim, aren't they?

Ah, the memories. Time to go listen to the theme song a few more times.

 

[Snownine]

VF-1 bitches!

 

[Chester41585]

Fuck it. I think Abrams should pony up for a 1:1 scale Enterprise.

 

[AlexanderAstartes]

Gonna rain on your anime parade and suggest a Madcat.

I love the Madcat design. This is where my vote goes

 

[SL33TBL1ND]

For fuck sake everyone! ITS GODDAMN OMEGA BOOST!

 

[Pinkros]

The one from Bokurano!

Will post pictures, when I'm not too lazy. <.<

 

[Rabarberskurk]

Why stop at just Gurren Lagann? I wanna see them build the ultimate final form; Super Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. Life-size of course!

 

[Mushroom 118i]

Either Liberty Prime

or

MEGAS XLR

 

[MrMisfit]

The original Voltron. nuff said

 

[JEBWrench]

..A space marine Dreadnought?

Where are we going to find a shriveled corpse of a fallen hero, though?

 

[John Funk]

I'm gonna have to go with Liberty Prime on this one. He could kick any of those silly old Gundam's asses any day of the week.

Turn-A melts it with Nanomachines ;D

 

[CheeseM0nkey]

Is there a reason that Megazord has not yet been proposed?

Which one? There's like...sixty.

Why not all of them?

Or, more "realistically", the original. And yes, I expect it to be composed of 5 smaller (though still giant) robots.

 

[ineedscissors]

wow how could Metal Gear not be on the list? Wouldn't hundreds of mooing Metal Gear Gekko roaming Tokyo be right up Japan's alley?

 

[StBishop]

Metal Gear! (say that in the Snake voice of course)

My thoughts exactly.

Interestingly, I just found out that I can touch type. Ha! This is awesome!!!!
