And put it inside 10 tons of big stompy armor. Or, at least, that's the thinking behind my latest scratchbuilt project. I was greatly impressed when I recently saw the scratchbuilt Goldfish Mecha Walkers posted on the Irrational Number Line Games website, (See: inlgames.com/fishetc.htm ). These were so imaginative and cool, I knew I wanted to do something similar. Since I like Pulp and Weird War II gaming, I immediately landed on doing the same thing, but with Hitler's brain. The Allies are in trouble now!

That's worthy of Futurama. Well done. |

That is great! Needs the iconic moustache painted on the front of the dome, though

OMG I would pay for one of those. My pulp WWII game was going to have a "Mecha Hitler" but what you have created tops anything I could come up with. |

They would have had to save his voice box as well, because ranting about Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Fuhrer in a Stephen Hawking-like electronic voice just wouldn't be the same:) That is the best pulp-model I have seen in years. Bravo mate. |

Very cool
I'm working on a Hitler's Brain project myself

No. It's a bad idea. We saw that movie at The Weekend and I'm still in recovery

That is great. Now I want to make one. |

I like the oversize dome vs the size of the brain! |

Castle Wolfenstein-ish! "scheisse!" LOVE IT! "Achtung, Kaput!" |

Thanks all for the positive feedback! For those that want one of their own, it really is a simple build to do. |

Awesome brainwork an brushwork
and thanks for the props! Looking at that work, I can see three or four brain jars on different mechs or toys with the same paint scheme. Then you can swap out the models during play to have Reichsformers! |

Hahaha! Love it! Well done. |

Looks like some dish under glass. With a few shakes from a bottle of lime Chalua, mmmm. |

Given how poorly it performed in its original container, I am at a loss to see how Hitlers brain could possibly be a menace in a robot body. Great model though. |
Spendlove | 17 Jul 2013 10:23 p.m. PST |
I still really, really want one of these! |
Colonel O Truth | 13 Aug 2013 2:39 a.m. PST |
Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow. Amazing idea! Totally impressed by the warped-ness of it all! Now can we see Churchill's Spleen piloting a stealth bomber, please? |

Now
if you could put liquid in the sphere and have little whit esnowflakes in it so that when you shook it
. Eric's right by the way, DON'T EVER WATCH THE MOVIE! |

The servos for the robot have a problem, every so often, one arm spontaneously gives the stiff-arm salute. |
