Knight Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I found this guy under a pile of boxes in my basement, so I decided to fix him up best I could. For those of you who don't know, this is a Lego model of Metal Gear Rex, the nuclear missile launching mecha from Metal Gear Solid. I built it myself with my own lego pieces, without any help or instructions, just a few images of Metal Gear off the Internet. I must say, I'm really proud of this work, though I think the version I made before it was broken and fixed is better. It's missing a couple pieces on its left knee and the laser cannon that's supposed to be on its abdomen. Spent all yesterday afternoon fixing him, it was a nightmare. So what do you guys think? And let me know if you wouldn't mind seeing more of my Lego stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phoenix Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I am so friending you, Knight lol. Excellent work. I used to build all sorts of stuff with these wonderful things, though I never managed to make Rex even though I tried a few times. Instead I made a 'to scale' (with with the little figurine guys) Gundam (not exactly perfectly colored but I couldn't or order parts online because I didn't have a pc back then) when I was about 14. Made an Owens and Hackman (battletech mechs) that were also to scale, and a few original star destroyers. A few other things I made were fighter jets and armored cores. I'd love to see more of your stuff, so if you've got pics, post away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knight Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 I'd love to post my other creations, but I want to have enough stuff to show off first. As of now, I'm working on a bunch of sci-fi vehicles, when I'm done I'll post them. Thanks for the compliments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baldrick Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Did you make him better than he was before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
