Machine Robo Side Lancer
Some images of the most sought-after Double Machine Robo.
It is a futuristic motorbike with a side-car…
…with a reversible design…
…that can separate into a stand-alone motorbike with a gun that doubles as a bike-stand…
…and a side-car that sprouts some legs and becomes a Gerwalk-side-car-mech…
…both combine into a robot.
One minor issue is the lack of forward arm articulation, so the image below cheats a bit to make it look like there is arm articulation:
Leg articulation is excellent, though (and it has a ball-jointed waist by design!).
This toy is stellar in its design and gives off a sentai-vibe instead of having a more regular Machine Robo aesthetic.
It is therefore all the more baffling that the two other second-wave Double Machine Robo have utterly lackluster designs, with lame transformations and a very un-Machine Robo-like attention-deficit to little details, as seen below with Double Jet (who lacks a goddamn landing gear in his jet modes):
Only one solution…sadly, Double Jet lacks the articulation to defend himself…
So yeah…
