Default Someone built a mecha. No joke. No fake.

I'm just sitting here grinning. It's only three meters tall and it doesn't move very well, but it's an actual mecha!

Thanks for that. I sent the link to my wife saying "I found your birthday present". She is big mech player. One of the reasons I wanted someone to draw a "fem" version. So I can put it on Tshirts and mugs with sayings like..
"does this suit make my butt look phat?"
and
"thats MISS Mech Warrior to you!"
and finally...
"yeah but 3 days a month I totally rule the arenas"

I hope he starts selling them. Then we can pilot a mecha instead of driving a car.

My links not a mech exactly but it is the start of power armour, and as RIFTS fans know from power armour you can progress to mechs.

And at 1.5 kilometers an hour (a little under 1 mph, if I recall my conversions correctly), you'll never need to worry about getting a speeding ticket again! (Obstruction of traffic, maybe)
