Designer's notes[]
"This mech was a real challenge. Not only was it huge, but it was also a lot more rounded and sculpted than I am used to. Under the watchful eye of Leonardo Lopez, I tried to perfect the design to the last little frill and detail. My favorite parts of this model are the way the X on the chest is built and angled and the color changed cockpits for the kneepads. From the first moment I saw those cockpits, I knew I wanted to try this and I think it works really well. One of the biggest challenges was what to do with the ankles, their articulation ended up being quite limited because of the weight, making the knees not nearly as exciting, but I have some ideas for how I can iterate on that in the future.
This set has a crazy amount of exclusive minifigures too."[2]
