Matrix APU

SO cool!
"We can give 'em Hell before we go!"
Fantastic!!
May I ask how these keep their form as apposed to hanging freely?
Probably because they are at an angle. Try it - kinda works like those old wiggly snake toys.
more than fantastic!
Well, it's because he twists the chain. it puts stress on the joints keeping them from moving.
Love the greebliness
Agreed, excellent touch.
Magic, of course!
Matrix APU by Legohaulic.
One of the APU's from my Brickworld Matrix display. I was pleasantly surprised when I was awarded the Best Mecha trophy.

Well deserved. The fact that there were more than one of these bad boys just makes it that much more awesome.

I remember when I was a little kid (now I'm a medium kid) and saw the third matrix movie for the first time. I built one of these... which is likely to have won the award for "crappiest mecha". Yup, you do it best.

Knuckle up!

Wonderful work here, absolutely magnificent. It's great to see a Matrix creation after a while of none at all. Very inspiring as well, I'm planning some Matrix creations myself.

Congrats, by the way. :)

This is excellent! Is it too much to ask for instructions, or at least a few different views?

^ I am in the process of making instructions. A guy I met at Brickworld bought one of my 3 APUs and I promised to make him instructions. I may make them available for everyone when I finish.

are the guns fully poseable or do you have to tilt them back like that to keep them up? (i`d love to see some different colour schemes)

still rocks.

The guns are poseable to some degree. It helps to have the feet attached to a solid base to add stability. It also has a lot to with the hip joints. I used two different hip assemblies to get the various poses needed for the diorama. It's trial by error each time I set one up.
