Armored Troopers Votoms are pretty cool human operated tank-sized robots.
I dont know much more about them, neither do i know much about the (old) anime they come from.
All i know so far : VOTOM stands for "Vertical One-man Tank for Offense and Maneuvers".
I've recently discovered more about the Votom background story from this very complete site, and it sounds pretty cool.
I found Votoms interesting since they look as real as a real "humanoid" war machine would be. They have this very unique design that make them the perfect mix between a fantasy war machine and actual heavy equipment.
Designing the mecha with realism in mind is the reason why i like the japanese Sci-Fi robots evolution so much!
AT-09-ST Scopedog
This machine is the AT ScopeDog. The hero of the show, Chirico Cuvie, is the pilot of such a machine.
Technical Specs : weight 6,627 kg; max. speed 41 km/h
The picture on the left is scanned from the model box, while the picture below is a shot of the built model (It's an amazingly small scale model) :
(The model is built in the original pastic-molded colors)
ATH-14-WPC SN-Turtle
Here is the SN-Turtle.
8,481 kg for a max. speed of 41 km/h is all i know about it!
Below is the illustration for the box of the model i own but haven'y built yet.
I also have a model of this one, which i haven't built yet... (Armored Trooper-Heavy-14-Water Proof Custom
