MOC: Boss RoboRider - Modern Version

[Logan McOwen]

Boss RoboRider - Modern Version

Built to keep my

modern Dust RoboRider company, this 'bot takes cues from the original Boss RoboRider, while being very much its own entity. With working sets of treads with individual shock absorbers, guns which swivel together*, and a streamlined Tumbler-esque design, this is one of my favourite MOCs I've come up with this year. Enjoy!

Yes, I am aware that this was photographed in my bathroom. Lighting is lighting, yo.

I love the build, you really captured the look of BOSS (my only robo-rider). The only thing that bugs me is the colors, I think Dark grey and orange would have worked better here. Nice suspension BTW.

I like the tank tracks but I'd sooner have real wheels over fake. Also I think it should be in general much bigger. big front wheels with big guns keep the tracks though they look cool.

I think it has a great proportion to the original Roborider sets, which I presume is what he was going for. And I'd have to disagree on the wheels, I really like the use of a non-traditional wheel(right?), and the piece is very sleek. Fits nice with the MOC.
