[MOC] Aquasharks - Sea Pincer

[the Inventor]

The Sea Pincer is a new Aquasharks sub, based on the design of the Stingray Sea Creeper or Crab.

With two manipulator arms it is designed to quickly grab the energy crystals or sabotage the Aquanauts subs and under water bases. 

With extra stabilizer fins on the bottom of the craft and propellers that have an 180 degrees turn, it can also quickly back off and turn around for improved maneuverability.

I finally obtained the Stingray set 6140/6109 today, which I have totally missed in my childhood apparently. And after assembling it for the first time, I wondered what it would look like in Aquasharks colors.

So here is my quick ~1.5 hour build, I also added a small base and the Shark Scout mk2 that I had already made.

Looks great, loved those arms when they were new parts. but due to age they lose their flexibility or crack easily, at least that's my experience.

Great scenery! I´m rooting for Aquanauts but they need proper enemies ;-)

Thanks. 

@TeriXeri yeah you have to be careful especially the grey space ones you have to careful with.

@tomfow I also have some ideas for a Aquanauts MOC.

Awesome classic modern mix. Good job, I'd like to see more. :)

Great looking set. 

 

Wish it was Thresher piloting the shop though. 😉

What's the angler fish from?  Is that an official lego piece?

That's from Stunt Show Truck (60294). It's also available in glow-in-the-dark colouring in Ocean Exploration Submarine (60264).

Thanks for the heads up!  I just might buy one now.  Not that I need it for any MOCs or display.  I just want one! lol
