OT Tech

Post by Lord Mercat » Sun Sep 25, 2011 3:48 am

Okay, So I have been lurking here for a few months, and decided that it's time to post some stuff. Currently I have an army in the works, but it will likely be another few months before it's ready for show. Knowing myself though, if I don't put something up now, I may never get around to it. So I thought I would post some of my dabblings into OTC(specifically) technology. Note- Purists beware, this topic is not safe for the eyes of those that dare not harm the simple purity of an unmodified lego brick. Most of the following are custom figures I made, the majority of which are utilizing OTC technology.

These are NOT, with the exception of one, regular army troops, or even all characters aligned with the same factions, so their color schemes do not necessarily fit in with one another. Now, without further ado, we have my first figure up for display, as of yet, un-named, wielding what I like to call, the UTC, or the ULTIMATE TRANSPARENT CHAINSAW, it's awesome power is feared across the cosmos (and yes, that is a giant bow on her head):

Image

And the Back view:

Image

For those of you interested in the figure, She is an extremely deadly android built by the scientists of the ED (Ernaeic Dominion, to be explained later) Designed to be the ultimate fighting machine, she was outfitted with the DNA and abilities of most of the Dominion's greatest warriors, given the most advanced learning AI yet developed, and is as yet the only being fully integrated with the highly classified Infinity Locker system, a highly advanced foray into the realm of hammerspace control. Utilizes Many other weapons not shown here. Project ended up bankrupting several solar systems, and was ultimately discontinued, However *name to be added later* was not properly disposed of, and through a series of various shenanigans, was ultimately discovered by a hapless, semi competent salesman of robotic vacuums, needless to say he hired her as a business partner/bodyguard and they currently travel the galaxy together. Said salesman will not be in this post, will show him later on.

Next up we have the only non-unique figure here, a Paladin of the Greyscale (the official name of the military of the dominion, for their color scheme of black, white and grey), one of those brave and highly trained warriors who ride the X-57 Sleipnir into battle. The Sleipnir is a highly advanced medium-armored hoverbike, outfitted to fully complement the Paladin's primary purpose, which is to wreak havoc across battlefields at high speeds. It is outfitted with six precision laser targeted missiles, and a medium strength laser repeater at the fore of the bike. Powering it is a large OT Hoversaw, which gives it high speed, excellent manueverability and serves to shred to pieces any figs unfortunate enough to get in its way. However most notable about the paladins are their signature OTC Novalances, used to shred through infantry, hardsuits, and even cut open the sides of armored tanks, the paladins are a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield:

Image

(I have a full company of 20 of these units, 10 fully completed, and the other 10 currently riderless) And the front view-

Image

Next up, we have Felix Nocturne, an expert swordsman and leader of a small mercenary company (other members not featured here) wielding his
OTC CHAINSWORD (will eventually give a specific name, but I haven't thought of a good one yet, open to suggestions):

Image

And Next we have the Warlord of the Dominion (the top military commander of the ED, reporting directly to the Galaxy King Himself) Wielding his mighty weapon, one of the most powerful ever to be wielded by a single minifig (non-vehicle, of course), the legendary Eviscerator Maul, A giant mace made of no less than 25 OTCs, this weapon serves to utterly obliterate all who stand in the Warlord's path. Unfortunately, as you may have noticed earlier, I don't really have access to anything red other than those two red bricks, so I can't really show the utter carnage it unleashes upon the battlefield (Note- I don't really like the face I currently have for him, open to any replacement suggestions):

Image

And that's all I've got for advanced OT tech in this post, but I still have a few figs to show off, so don't go anywhere just yet- Next up is the Awesomest hero in the Galaxy, none other, than Brosef Brosovski, shown wielding brass knuckles, and his mighty Trans-Black Burter Sword, Brosef is the head of the GHO, or Galactic Hero Organization. The GHO serves as sort of a Galactic Justice League, they are stationed across the cosmos, Serving up justice, wherever it is needed (for a small fee, of course):

Image

And Next we have My Sigfig, The enigmatic Spades Mercat, the leader of the intergalactic Space Pirate Federation, the Space Pirate Lord. As Space Pirate Lord, Spades holds sway over all space pirates operating under the flag of the Space Pirate Federation, which, just so happens to be all of them:

Image

EDIT: Looking at the first pic, it is impossible to notice that he does not a have a light-saber arm, but a laser hook, so adding side view to showcase this:

Image

And next we have one of the captains of said Space Pirate federation, Space Pirate Captain Althea Fall. Remember when I said that all significant OTC technology had been shown? Well, I lied, because I am pretty sure that none of you have been witness to an OTC Peg-Leg, it just seemed like something a space pirate would have, you know?

Image

And Penultimate fig coming up next, we're nearing the end here, is Marchioness (feminine version of Marquess, above a count, below a duke) and Blademaster Sieglinde Reglay, of the Peerless Blade. Sieglinde serves as a Noble of the ED, ruling over the fiefdom given to her family line by the Galaxy King. Unlike most nobles, who prefer not to partake in combat, Sieglinde is reknowned as a goddess of the battlefield, particularly for her unmatched swordplay, achieving the title of Sword Saint, which can only be possessed by a single living person in the entirety of the galaxy at any given time. Due to the massive size and scale of the ED, which consists of an entire galaxy, Most of the troops and units I make aligned with the ED will be the troops designated to, and serving under Marchioness Reglay, rather than the Greyscale as a whole, so that I can focus on a smaller area of the Galaxy:

Image

And last, but certainly not least, we have Galaxy King Ernie himself, ruler of the entirety of the Ernaeic Dominion, he holds sway over the lives and peoples of an entire Galaxy. However, a warrior born and not one for sitting about idly like many of the nobles serving under him, Galaxy King Ernie is easily one of, if not the strongest fighters in the entirety of the Galaxy and regularly fights alongside his countless warriors. Shown here wielding the Birthright of the great line of Ernie, Excalibert, the GodBlade:

Image
Image

And that's all I've got for now. Sorry for the semi-lousy, or just plain lousy pics, I'm not too used to taking pictures of stuff this small, but I'll get better at it eventually (I hope). Anyway, criticisms, comments would be appreciated, and thanks very much for viewing!

Agree. Interesting idea for the modding of OTCs, I don't believe that's been done around here. Anyway, the first one is my favorite, and I like your hoverbike. some of those do seem a bit over-the-top, though (like the maul). Anyway, looking forward to your army, and welcome aboard!

So while I like the effort on some of your custom items, I am going to stick to my opinion that too much OTC kills the "special" nature of the OTC. This it becomes just another Lego color. :|

My jaw dropped about halfway through. Wow. Those outfits are completely over the top and completely epic.

Wow, thanks for all the comments guys, I appreciate it!

As to the "too much OT kills it" perspective, I can understand where you are coming from. However, the way I see it at least, is that some civilizations (ex- iceworlders, the vol) make use of the OTC in rather large numbers and still don't kill it's special qualities. Also worthy of note, is that you are only seeing the OTC wielding figs in this post here. I think I only have maybe two other figs/types of figs not pictured here using the weapon. Taken into account with the army that I have under construction and the other figures I have made, only a very small percentage use the OTC. So, while I can see your point, I have to disagree in this case.

King Ernie looks like a bee? I never really saw the resemblance until now, but I guess he kinda does, lol.

Anyway, I have a bunch more figures I haven't taken any pictures of yet, if anyone is interested in seeing any of them I can add a few more pics to the OP.

I was going to declare this a legendary thread, (50% WIN 50% LOL 50% LEGEND -- THAT'S 150% MOTHERFUCKER) but you named the galaxy king dude Ernie? Like seriously? That's the crappiest name ever.
