For my project I have
chosen to do the Uller from the MechWarrior game by Microsoft. Below is
a description of the Uller.
Uller, Light Clan
Omni-Mech, 30 tons
The Uller, or "Kitfox" as the Clans refer to it, is an exceptionally
versatile 'Mech with a potent arsenal of weapons that give it striking
power at all ranges. Fast and well armored for its size, the Uller can
hold its own against many Inner Sphere medium 'Mechs. It was originally
the primary light 'Mech deployed by Clan Jade Falcon. Its versatility
and overall performance has led to it being adopted by many mercenary
companies - including the Black Knight Legion.
The MechWarrior that I am doing is made of K'nex building blocks. It consists of 148 pieces and is used as a toy for ages 9 and up. The moving parts on the model are the legs, arms and head. The legs move in a walking motion. The arms move in any direction because there is a ball joint at two points.
Sub-assemblies:
This
assembly is the leg of the mech warrior. There are two leg assemblies
This
assembly is the mid section of the mech. There is only one assembly like
this. This is the most important part of the whole toy because it is what
enables the mech to walk and connects the two legs and the head.
This
assembly is the head of the mech. There is only one assembly like this.
This part connects to the mid section assembly. The arms are connected with
ball joints which enable the arms to move 360 degrees.
