Mobile-Siege-Dinosaur

194 comments
This Mobile-Dino-Based-Siege-Engine is the headquarters of a clan of dino-rider orcs.
It's a transport, a home, and a siege engine. I designed it as a mobile and autonomous place to live anf fight.
 
"This mobile siege-engine will be a powerful adversary for the greatest castles and the mightiest knights !"
 
I wanted to come up with a LEGO set that can be a collector's item but also robust enough to be fully functional whit lots of playabilities.
 
The set contains many features and details:
 
Main platform :
  • The six cannons rotate and tilt.
  • The forge is lit by a light brick.
  • Turning the rudder pulls the reins to give direction to the dinosaur.
  • A ladder can be unfolded to reach the main platform from the ground.
  • A raptors nest is attached to the strap.
  • Many supplies are fixed on the platform (tanks, food, storage, trunks, rocks... ).
 
Upper platform :
  • The upper platform rotates 360°.
  • The winch is adjustable in inclination and rope length.
  • A platform can be hung on it to reach the ground and all the platforms.
  • Two shooting stations to send ropes with grappling hooks for assaults.
  • Small rest hut.
  • A command post.
 
Dinosaur :
  • The legs have a suspension system that allows them to adapt to the terrain and the weight carried.
  • The neck tilts.
  • The head moves in all directions.
  • The mouth opens
  • The tail is orientable.
 
 
The set is 51 cm (20 inch) high and 54 cm (21 inch) long.
A weight of 3.3 kg (6.6 lbs) for about 3000 pieces.
