    A Japanese company called Suidobashi heavy industry has developed a mech that can be piloted from a cockpit complete with HUD. It also features weapons (ALA airsoft) and a diesel engine with a top speed of around 10kph.

    Oddly, the weapons fire when the pilot smiles...


    So for those of you with a spare million or 2, here it is:

    And may I be the first to say, Shut up and take my money!

    The order part of the webpage is cool, (Click buy dream now) you can design your mech from it's weapons load-out to optional cup holder.

    I per-ordered mine. I wonder will they send their mechs after me when they realise that I don't have any money? :pac:

    A useless thing, it would be far to vulnerable, tanks are better.

    Oh ye of little faith, you will be the first people on my hit-list when I get my mech.

    Best start figuring out how to prepare yourselves for 3000 bb pellets per minute in the face.
