So I've built quite a few kits over the years. Not saying I'm any kind of expert, I'd still say my skill level is...early intermediate at best, but I wanted to really challenge myself, and build some fun kits in the meantime.
I decided on going for The Megas from Megas XLR, and that Master Grade kits were where I wanted the scale to hang around. My love for giant robots truly started with this show, and I'd love to make something that can at least evoke the feel of that big lumbering design.
I'm currently looking at the Virtue to do a lot of heavy lifting with the Forearms and Lower Legs. I figured the missile pods (thrusters? cannons?) on the backpack could be modified to work as the Forearms. The Tallgeese's chest looks like it could be the right shape, just not the right size. Where as the skirt and waist have the right visual elements that I'm looking for as well. The Guncannon Detector's limbs just look perfect for the Upper Arms, and Thighs. Specifically using the Thighs from the Detector as Upper Arms for the Megas, and the Forearms from the Detector as the Megas' Thighs. The Kampfer has a lot of organic/rounded shapes that I'll need for the Engine Block Backpack's Thrusters, and a possible waist to use if the Tallgeese's doesn't work out. Plus I think the feet should scale...okay with the Virtue's Lower Legs.
I've also looked at the RG Zeong's chest piece as a possibility instead of the Tallgeese's, but I'm not sure exactly how big the Zeong is.
I'd love some feedback, and any other kit siggestions. Again not going for 100% accurate, but trying to heavily evoke the design. Like a "What if Coop had to upgrade The Megas with parts from the Gundam universes."
