AMP Suit - a photo on Flickriver

AMP Suit

The AMP suit from Avatar has long been one of my favorite scifi machines, so I was of course delighted when Lego released a set containing one! However, I feel the model from the set was lacking in many ways, so I made my own. I actually made my first AMP suit model wayyyyyy back in 2009 using LDD, back when you could still order your models to be built and shipped to you with printed instructions and box art.

I am confident that this model is as close to minifig scale as we can get without sacrificing structural integrity. I actually build-tested this model! The arms are fully articulated and the legs have hip and angle mobility. I actually really liked the unruly leg-with-fixed-knee piece as it fit the shaping perfectly and so the knees cannot move. Small price to pay. The cockpit is surprisingly spacious and stable (two words not normally applicable to cockpits in my models) and can easily fit an angry Colonel Quaritch figure.

This is also the first model I digitally created from scratch in Stud.io (normally I use Mecabricks first but parts were not available). As such, I took the opportunity to create detailed instructions, available on Rebrickable here!
