Icebugs

The Icebug (officially the VX447 Sherpa transport mech) is a large six-legged insectoid mech used by the Ice Planet organisation for long-range scout/transport duties.

 

Seen here together with the VX313 Fulmar speeder and the "Snowbug" robot, the Icebug is one of a number of specialised ground vehicles used by the Ice Planet organisation for the exploration of cryotic planets.

The Icebug carries a small ski rover atop its carapace, which can be used for local reconnaissance duties.

This would look better with all blue CCBS limb shell elements instead of the 2 blue and 4 black I have here, but I rather like the overall design. Bugs are cool, giant mechs are cool, and Ice Planets is definitively cool (if not downright chilly). Put them together and you end up with giant ice bug mechs. I'll let you be the judge of whether that's cool or not.
