I've been busy redoing my base since I-13 hit. I still have lots to go, and yesterday it was time to work on my Trophy Room. While I was doing it I thought I needed a centerpiece of sorts, something big. Batman always has that giant robotic T-Rex in his trophy room. So I wanted something showy and big.

I stopped doing my trophy room for a bit, pondered, and had an idea. This was it:

Giant Robot 1
Giant Robot 2
Giant Robot 3
And I just had to sit on his shoulder.

I tried my best to use mostly tech items. My plan was to create something along the lines of the Iron Giant. Something looking like a toy robot built from various items and equipment. I also built him to be as tall as I can, using the lowest floor and the highest ceiling.

For concept, I'm thinking he's basically a robot made up of various equipment and parts, built by magic and is held together by it, kinda like a golem. And the usual, hero-stops-giant-golem-toy-robot, beats bad guy, and hero reprograms robot, deactivates it, and brings it home.

I think you have created your own ingame boss lore thing. If you have any type of fully set story with him. I'd love to know.

I also was wondering if I could make something similairly designed in my SGs base? If you dont want it out there and want to keep it only one of those types thats cool but I'd love to have it.

Anyways, great job! I am sure you have inspired many base builders like myself!

P.S. Can you give us some shots from the side, back, top and bottom?

That's really awesome, and I second the motion to get you a yellow title under your forum name!!!!

You should get together with the city scoop folks for an article!

So cool!

I love seeing you guys make such awesome bases and base items.

Must've taken you a long time. I applaud your patience and creativity. I think you're going to inspire a lot of similar things.

Very nicely done. Has a great feel to it, similar to the giant robots from the 30/40s Superman cartoons or maybe Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow (brain is a little fuzzy on details for which one tonight). Very nice indeed.

I don't say much, but I have to say that that is genius.

Oh I don't mind people making similar robots or golems of their own. Heck, I'd love to see what different kinds of giant robots or golems people could make, if they decide to build one.

I must say, that is a fine looking robot. It's almost a shame we can't have more of those rampaging across the city. :-)

Brilliant man, just brilliant!

This inspires me to re-visit the base creator. I didnt know it was possible. I have always wanted to build pyramids temples in my base.

Very excellent

We need more Giant Trophies that we can add .. They'd make cool Vet Rewards ... *hint hint*

Just not as big as that Dad Blamed Arachnos ship.

That is the most excellent use of the base editor I think I've ever seen! It has inspired me to start construction on a Gorilla-like giant using mostly Arcane Blocks. Time to get out the graph paper and put together some plans...

Okay, by far that is the coolest thing I have seen built in a base. If I had my way you would get a Perm Yellow Name Tag that says the following: Giant Robot Builder.

Hehe, I wish. I've been wanting a yellow title for almost 3 years now. But I think they only give those out to contest winners. Would be quite funny though.

You know, you'd get a lot more cool stuff like this if you told Sunstorm to make us some giant LEGO pieces... especially the slanty ones. And in different colors please!

Cool thing is, you can actually get inside of the robot. I put a hole in the back of it and made a cockpit.(You might be able to see it in photos)
