Why does the first on look like a Flea-class battlemech?

Except that it is slow and would be crunched by the first M1 abrams that it came into contact with...

Other than that it is an interesting start.

Better start shooting now. It could be the first time that armor has ever beat a mech in a straight up fight.

You know he may want to change the name away from Mech, given how WK has it copyrighted...

Quote:

But then again it's kind of hard to copyright a word that is used by a lot of different folks daily for different things.

Similar discussion came up a couple of years ago, and it seems that some folks believe FASA had a copyright on the word Mech no matter how it was spelled with or with out the " ' " in front of it or not.

But anyways it was just a suggestion, I doubt WK even notices it at all.

That walker needs to have wider legs/feet. One good misstep and over it goes...

What's with all these muted responses? You know we all want that Japanese one, we want one bad!

So what if you brought your 600 dollar airsoft full auto M16? Hiss, clank, whirrr. I brought my battlemech.

Funny that Czech meaning of the word mech is moss. Czech BT terminology uses shortcut OBR (Obrneny (Armored) Bitevni (Battle) Robot), the word obr means giant.

So if you used one of these in east LA would it still be a drive by shooting?
