My Round 3 entry into the MOC Olympics category of "Trampler Mech".
Enjoy!
About this creation
On a calm, pleasant day in the carbon emissions savvy town of Quentitown, A begrudged former citizen came to take here revenge. Having been kicked out of the town 5 years earlier for her gasoline chugging machines she made for a hobby, Jenny Creig was back to teach the town a lesson about her inventions. Quentitown's strict emissions laws require that no vehicle can have more than 3 wheels and consume more than 40 miles to the gallon. Jenny's beast of a machine only complies with one of these rules, and that only fuels her fire...
Many of the citizens have moved from other cities and don't know of Jenny Creig, but they do now.
Greg Hampton, a long time resident knows of Jenny, and actually was her neighbor for years. He was one of the pioneers of the law, and Jenny knew right where to find him.
Harry Jenkins, however, is one of the many who have moved in in the last 5 years, and he's in trouble because his segway is running out of battery.
A look down main street shows how much the town is in turmoil.
And here's Jenny sitting in her nice climate controlled cockpit while she runs rampant in the town.
Now look at this! Poor Jeffery Templeton is watching his beloved Trike being crushed under the foot of Jenny's behemoth. Jeffery is also being arrested for his gas mileage of 38.5 MPH. Strict, and dumb as can be is all they hire in Quentitown.
A few shots of the builds:
Jenny staring back at the destruction left in her wake of her former hometown.
Builder's Note:
I Wish I had a little more time to put into this entry, just to spruce it up, but that's the point of the competition, to keep you on your toes. I apologize for the poor picture quality. All I had available today was a 3 year old camera, plus the setup was too big for my photo booth and I couldn't get the shot just right. But all in all, I and very pleased with my entry.

Why must you guys make this so hard? OK, breaking it down. Loved Sebeus' Mech, loved your buildings. His little extras were great, but that scooter thing you built cracked me up....in the end, it was that wicked looking crack that won me. My vote is for Sebeus I. |

Very nice, those vehicles are cool, I like the use of the bubble windshield and the rounded shape of the cockpit, good job on the street and houses, I particulary like the blue house... well, I won't wish you luck with the judges, i'm sure you'll understand :p whatever the result will be, I had a great time and this was a great match |
