I just want to take a moment to remind everyone about what is important in life.

Screw that! MECHA SCULPTURE THREAD!

SWEET MOTHER OF HOLY FUCK
CAN IT MOVE?
IF IT CAN MOVE WHY AREN'T THE WORLD'S MILITARY FORCES MASS PRODUCING THEM?

Fr0st, thank you for reminding me that mechas are what's important in life.

As it said that is a statue Daynel, and BTW they do use bots, UAVs for example. Israeli ones can also carry weapons. There are also diff smaller scale bots that are used in a variety of missions, mostly for scouting, also disarming bots armed with a robotic arm and a 50 cal MG that the police uses to disarm potential charges, it mostly ends in that bot shooting some forgotten bag and nothing happens but if there is a bomb it will detonate it and disarm it in this way ...

Yes, the main problem is movement, we are yet to build a robot that can both carry armament. armor and still move fast enough and reach everywhere, the walking is especially lacking ...

Here that is a picture of it:

Spoiler:

And yes that is a body of a real terrorist who tried to break into a military base but was shot, the bots are examining her (it's a she) in case she had explosives on her.

And that is BTW a working military bot:

And that is a patrol bot, also our development:

Spoiler:

Has an MG turret on the top BTW.

And that is a scout bot used by infantry:

Okay so new important message to sciencers everywhere:
Drop the less important things you are working with and focus on making mechs that can walk as good as a human.
Then you can go back to cancer research and environment studies and whatever.

That looks fucking awesome! Thanks frost!

The military may not be mass-producing mechs (probably because doing so would be seen as preparation for war) but they are going to mass produce this... Yes. MASTER CHIEF ARMOR!

I want that mech!  

I want that suit.
How much for that suit?
