Phoenyx Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 I know what you're probably thinking... "What the heck?" Well, I decided to build my own artist's interpretation of Eggman's (@Lair SEGA originally called him Eggman in Japan, so I only use Robotnik to refer to either the cartoonish design that's snooping as usual or the Kintobor family) #1 "Badnik", Metal Sonic. My thought process was as follows: "The turbine generator in the chest is too exposed. I'll replace it with a pair of smaller main turbines on the back." "Well, this thing is supposed to be able to fly, but I don't see any control surfaces on the original. What's up with that?" "I think I'll throw a bit of Zero from Mega Man in there and see if anyone notices." "MORE ARTICULATION!!!" "You know what? I'll throw in a bit of Mecha Sonic from the Sonic & Knuckles Mecha Madness special. I'm surprised no one payed attention to that one." "Dang, I won't be able to fit the red optic sensors in there. Wait, I know... I'll make the sensor visor itself red!" This is what happens when you let me redesign things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time I brought it up, we got into a slight debate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you seemed to be acting like I was against that name or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Cupcake Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Well, I don't really like Metal Sonic that much. But aside from that... eeeeeh, it's okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McJobless Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 It's pretty good for a LEGO model, more than I can do. Of course, however, I'm not a SEGA fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
