I can't believe Lego Technic actually supplies so unique peices that you can make something which looks THAT much like a seige tank... and not only that, you can make it look like that while it actually has functionality? That's ridiculous. How much did you spend on all that lego?

I'm guessing 600-1000.

A lot of times people do things and show them off on this forum and I think, "Cool, but I could do that."

But this, I wouldn't even know where or how to start to build a functioning lego siege tank. It just seems... too hard.

Good job.

Thank you all! Video is in the making. Part cost for this project was around 600-700 euros. Building technique for the outer shell is quite simple. It consists in fact 90% of very common technic beams. Only some highlight parts are rarer to add extra shape. Here's an image where I tried to show how the smooth surfaces are made:

I would ask for instructions, but I know that would probably be impossible/needlessly wasting your time

5/5, you should email Blizzard and LEGO. If you want to - this thing will earn you contacts.

I guessed those were just technic beams but seriously man, that must have hurt your fingers so bad.

Wait some of the parts are custom made out of even tinier parts? Omg you're taking lego to a whole new level. Respect level just increased.

NarutO: walking Thor would be cool indeed! I fear it's beyond my skill to make only 2 legged walking Lego machine but I might still give it a try. Atleast a quick prototype.

The key is that you have to shift weight over the leg and then take the weight off the other leg.

It becomes harder with the balance when Thor has weapons and arms that should be movable aswell Would be nice to have possibility to aim weapons.
