[71790 Alt Build] Imperium Battalion Beetle
The Imperium forces make use of their vast numbers of Battalion Beetles to overpower and capture dragons to take advantage of their power.

A B-model from set 71790 Imperium Dragon Hunter Hound!
Despite the Imperium being presented as a big force in Dragons Rising, personally the sets (so far) don’t really reflect that, or at the very least don’t give you an easy option for varied army-building beyond the minifigs, so I had the idea of wanting to do something small but strong that could work in large numbers.
A big inspiration was the unique helmet design of the Imperium Claw General, really going for a rhinoceros beetle look!
