Improving the Batmech

[Zilcho]

I really love the Batch from the Gorilla Grodd set.

However, IMO, there are 2 big flaws:

Firstly, the net cannon is a bit silly. Does anyone have any good ideas with what to replace it with? I would simply make another arm but I don't have the parts for that.

Also, there is the big gap in the back of the suit. Any good ideas for filling it up?

I'd love to see how you have modded your batmech!

i heavily modded my version of the Mech, but I still havent upload any pictures of it. (Gonna take some pictures soon)

I replaced the original arms with ones that look similar to the Hulkbuster-Arms.

I added some height to the hips and legs, and removed all yellow pieces to mostly grey.

You could just leave the cannon, replace the net with a translucent 2x2 round brick and pretend it's a plasma cannon or something.

However, if you're going to remove the cannon, you could put it on the back as a sort of jetpack like I did on my Bat-Exo-Suit. That would give your Batmech some extra propulsion and take care of the gap on the back. Then you can replace the cannon with some other kind of weapon like those new rapid fire stud and disc shooters or some kind of tool like a drill or a claw, depending on what you want your Batmech to do.

Not with that attitude.

Anyone planning to cover the top area so that it doesn't expose Batman's head?

Not my creation, I apologize to the original creator in advance, but really worth a look

Does anyone have an LDD file? I'd like to play around with it.
