Atlas Shrugged

I've never read the book and I've never seen the movie, but the cover on one of the numerous editions of Atlas Shrugged was the first time I'd seen an image of atlas kneeling instead of standing.

 

To be honest the only image of Atlas I have any memory of is the statue in Rockefeller Center.

 

The build is really stable (when in a kneeling position) and Altas can hold up the world all by himself with no help of any kind. Even with the hinged "back" after a week of sitting on my shelf it did not droop from it's current position which did surprise me.

 

This is the final color scheme, and may be a little odd but it was more interesting than Atlas being entirely white.

 

Some of my friends are calling this build Transformer Altas, which is not entirely inappropriate because of the colors and parts usage. I did my best to add some of the major muscle groups with the parts I have.
