    I need to do a bit of work on him to get him more in scale with Mega stuff (he's a bit tall), but I designed it from scratch, basing the joints off of measurements I took from a Mega Construx figure. The claws have 3mm holes in them to allow them to hold weapons. The design is based off a Diaclone Waruder. It has all the articulation of a Mega Construx figure and I designed the core pieces as a standard buck, so I can skin up some characters, blend them with the buck, and add more figures to my Mega Construx universe. Hope you enjoy!

    First, the figure as he came off the printer

    I'd like to do a few more Waruders, maybe some Dianauts, and then some MOTU and GI Joe guys that I can't find decent Mega Construx parts for right now and that I don't expect to see from MegaBlok any time soon (on the MOTU).

    Thanks! Working on the Battas pilot one now. He's a bit trickier, trying to get his head to not look completely goofy at a larger scale.
