    I would love to see someone make this! And the cockpit could open so that a liquid figure could fit inside.

    only becasue it doesn't trasnform!!!:lol 

    I LOVE the rex, and wished they would have made some toy out of him. the closest thing we got was metal gear Ray(?), and it was a build a figure.

    I'm not sure what kind of features to put in it. Maybe have missle bays? its been so long since i've played the game I can't think of what it may have. i'd try and incorporate as many of the weapons as were in the game here. like when you have to run between his legs, there is some sort of crotch turret that you have to dodge. I said that i the most PG way i could.

    i would concentrate on making him posable, opening cockpit where you can put a figure, and to be able to stand up and to have his "at rest" mode where he sits back on his heels. maybe you could have a switch/lever on his legs for his different standing modes. if I remember right, his heels flipped up/contracted in to his leg when he walked. that could be done simply enough.

    I would love to see this realized. it's one of the greatest overlooked mechs I can think of. I'm surprised no japanese company has doen this yet...

    Good luck!

    Randy!

    well seeing as its not a transformer you can go mental on the detail of this thing - at 28 inches i suspect there would be a lot!

    anyways lights and sounds would be great but the ps3 idea is a good one! maybe even install a charging stand for the ps3 controllers to have next to your console? think outside the box with this due to its size you can go nuts!

    good luck :)
