Power Miners: Super Mine Mech

This model completely overhauls the original Mine Mech by taking inspiration from Japanese mecha shows and implementing the modern Mech Suit articulation system used across various LEGO themes to create an upgraded mech for the Power Miners to mine more efficiently and fight off the rock monsters with ease. Joints are located at the knees, ankle, hips, wrists, fingers, elbows, shoulders, and side panels so that the mech can move as much as possible.

Some design cues were also inspired by the Power Miners 8964 Titanium Command Rig by implementing the fuel tanks, wheels, and exhaust ports to overhaul the original simple Mine Mech into a larger more powerful mech. The drill element has also replaced the original buzzsaw to create synergy with the other Power Miners vehicles, while still keeping the Mine Mech's color scheme for recognizability.
