Memes aside, I present to you, members of the Eurobricks, another M:Tron mech!

 

Designed for burning through the native foliage on planets, to make room for mining operations.

The pilot. Look at that gleeful smile as he burns the forest down!

M:Tron came was never my cup of tea, I was more classic space as a kid. But i think you captured the theme nicely. The upper part of the mech is nice. Perhaps the orange floodlights would have been better off in another coulor than orange, trans yellow seems more fitting for the theme. The legs needs more work on them , they seem a tad to plain. The 1x1 plate inserted can be pulled of at one place but perhaps not both on the upper and lower leg. Also a grilled tile as geeble on the 2 black studs on the feet would perhaps added som detaling.

Cheers!

They aren't orange, it's just the lighting. They are of the same trans-neon green as the rest of the pieces.

 

As for the legs and feet, I liked them, but to each his own.

Reminds me of the Firebat unit from the video game StarCraft.  

An arm with a hand or other grasping machinery might be useful for lifting and clearing away items that cannot be burnt with the flamethrower.  I like the design very much though.

You got me! Slight inspiration there, as well as the Black hand and the Avatar from Command & Conquer 3.

 

As fro the grasping arm, that's what the other work mechs are for, right? Right? (I'm floundering for an explanation here. :laugh:)
