MAD STOMP XT “BEE-STUNG”
-So, I finally got my hands on set 76254 "Baby Rocket's Ship", and managed to incorporate it into a mech body.
The most interesting about this frame is that you can easily detach the ship from the mech waist, and combine it with some other vehicle that has plate underside on the bottom, which most vehicles do.
I really like how simple and effective the build for the original ship is, so I took extra care to alter it as little as possible. you can also just pull out the arms from the axle holes in the body.
One possible modification that you might want to do is raise the "roof" by one plate height, if you want your pilot to have a taller helmet. The hatch is just tall enough to close with a regular minifig and a basic helmet.
I used a skeleton with aqua sharks armor from the 90s, but didn't want to include him in the parts inventory, since you probably have your own custom pilots in mind.
