Blacktron Battle Mech

Based on the black and yellow color scheme of Blacktron I, this mech is a love letter to LEGO space sets new and old. Boasting the chunky, mechanical feel of 1980s science fiction but using many modern building techniques, this model represents a threat of galactic proportions.
The set shows the aftermath when this behemoth of destruction has taken down a planetary recon ship, and is now part of the team which is searching the wreckage for supplies to steal. Using its arm-mounted scope, the walking terror is ready to take down any obstacles in its path.
Piloted by a Blacktron commander, the laser cannons on the mech's wrist are powered by a large fuel tank on its back, which uses flexible tubes to power all of its circuitry, but which also serves as a weak point. The lone astronaut who piloted the wreck has only one chance to destroy the fuel source, depower the mech and escape to safety...
