One of my favorite Classic Space sets was the 6882 Walking Astro Grappler, from 1985.

I always thought it would be cool if it had two claws--So I modified it just a little, with 2 arm-claws, and a few extras.

Changed the canopy from opaque blue (rear) trans-yellow (front) to all trans-blue. Also added some 1x1 trans-blue lights.

I call this MOC the Walking Astro Dual-Grappler :)

Two separate & dangerous life-threatening situations can be tackled by Dual Grappler, simultaneously, saving time and precious lives!

If one situation is too complex, both grapple claws can be used to overcome a single difficult challenge.
