Vincent Cheung Posted August 30, 2008 (edited) Hi, there, This is my first Mecha MOC, done in Dec 2007. I loved Patlabour since it was one of my favourite cartoons when I was young. The scale is about 1:144. It took me almost a month to finish. Thanks for watching! Vincent (fvin) Edited August 30, 2008 by Vincent Cheung Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fatespuppet Posted August 30, 2008 This mech is great. I was just looking at my copies of the Patlabor movies and debating whether to watch one today. I might have to now. It really captures the feel of the one from the movie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baby Posted August 30, 2008 That was neat and accurate maybe you would like to find some green bricks to replace the visor. Great MOC! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Asuka Posted August 30, 2008 A wonderful work in a very stringent and clear design! It also looks very detailed, poseable and stable at the same time. Great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Siegfried Posted September 1, 2008 That's great! The knee joints are especially good. This could be my favourite mech at this scale. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frank4bricks Posted October 22, 2013 Hi, there, This is my first Mecha MOC, done in Dec 2007. I loved Patlabour since it was one of my favourite cartoons when I was young. The scale is about 1:144. It took me almost a month to finish. Hi, my name is Francesco Frangioja and I am a member of ItLUG (Italian LUG) from Milan, Italy. I'm organizing an exhibitions at "WOW Comics Museum" (http://www.museowow.it/) on the robot theme (robot in comics, movie, anime, OAV, literature etc.) and I really love to build a Patlabor with LEGO, but I'm not expert enough to design it. The first thing that you'll see when you go into the Museum Museum that host the exhibition is a 1:1 scale plastic model of "Alphonse"!!!!!!! There is any chance that you help me building a copy of your creation that I'll expose (with all credit to you, of course) during the exhibtion (from 26th october 2013 to 12th january 2014)? Many thanks, Francesco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kevin8 Posted October 22, 2013 Wow Alphonse! Never seen one so close to the anime one. Great work! Ok, now it's time for Griffon... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Missing Brick Posted October 22, 2013 Frank, that seems unlikely since Vincent's Eurobricks account hasn't been active since Oct 2009. He's probably entered his lego dark age. Maybe try again in 5 years time :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chro Posted October 22, 2013 (edited) Very nice! I'm not familiar with what the MOC is based on, but the build itself is excellent by its own merit. EDIT: Sorry, hadn't realized this was a five-year-old revival... Edited October 22, 2013 by Chro Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kermit Posted October 23, 2013 You built an awesome robot but that machine gun is incredible and I like the mobility of the robot especially the pose with the gun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
