Mobile Suit "Cancer", red crablike submersible mobile suit from Gundam.
About this creation
Aquatic mobile suit. One pilot in torso cockpit. Transforms from mobile suit mode to submarine mode.
See its Gundam site for all the information I based this creation on.
Someone offered me $35 for this model, after asking if I would make instructions for it. This is extremely flattering, since this is my first LEGO creation to garner such interest.
Did I mention that I've never seen Gundam, or played Mechwarrior, or any of those mecha-themed shows? This was my first Mecha creation, and I had a blast working on it.

Jose- You're right, it's not to scale, and my cockpit entrance is definitely not the real method. I had no way to tell from the pics how it opened, so I just went with something interesting. And I know the pilot is supposed to have a chair to sit in and such, but at this size there just wasn't room; I had to make him stand. :) Thanks for the praise!

This Brings back great memories of a couple of "Cancers" going down to the ocean to pick up Wing Gundam, I think it was. |

This model is awesome Ryan! I was going to ask you what your favorite gundam series was, but you've never seen it! LOL. Anyways, the only reason you did'nt get a 5 was because the cockpit doesn't open like it should or as nearly every gundam does, and because i doubt this is built to scale. Anyways this is still a very nice moc, keep it up! |

Niiice. Fairly accurate, excellent choice of parts. I'm not much of a Gundam fan, and definitely not a Gundam Wing fan, but I like this li'l sucker.
If I may, you might want to check out some of the mecha from a series like Patlabor or Five Star Stories for your next model. Your talents are wasted on Gundam stuff. |
