MMNEF - Cragsters Mecha-Max
The discovery of Mecha-Cubits (metallic Tribe-Cubits with a single black wedge) by a group of Nixels deep within the caverns of the Mixel Moon allowed a single Nixel to Max with a tribe of Mixels to form a powerful, technologically advanced mecha. A sentient working/fighting machine where the unique powers and creativity of a Mixel tribe are combined with the technology and military structure of the Nixels resulting in a union much more capable than the sum of its parts. Many other Nixels have formed teams providing needed maintenance and technical support for the Mecha-Max’s during their explorations of Mixel Land.
The Mecha Mixel-Nixel Expeditionary Force (MMNEF) is beginning to understand the secret origins of Mixel Land’s vast technological underpinnings. Initial discoveries suggest an unknown mutual enemy of Mixel/Nixel-kind that somehow disrupted a previous civilization and created the two disparate worlds of Mixel Land and Nixels Land. Mysterious remnants of this society can be seen in the giant Rainbow Cubit of Mixel Mountain, the extensive pipe network, and the unexplained Large Rock where Mixels inexplicably gather.
Meanwhile, the un-Mecha-Maxed Mixel tribes and Major Nixel both see the MMNEF as a threat to their status quo. Can the MMNEF solve the mystery of Mixel Land’s origin or will they succumb to the continuous threat from both Mixels and Nixels? Is the origin of Mixel Land something that should even be revealed?
These are all Mixel Max models (alt models) using only the pieces that come in the three sets from the respective tribes. This started as a slight departure from my usual mecha alt models of individual Mixel sets for Mobile Frame Zero when I built the first one from the Orbitons sets after being inspired by two fellow builders: Ezra Wibowo's (Cragster Max and Glorp Corp Max) and Dvdliu's (Wiztastics Max).
I wanted to make mecha Mixel Max's for the Nixel that comes with the tribe and set myself some conditions: build an many different types of mecha as possible, the Nixel must fit into the mecha and be removable without modification and have a well defined cockpit, and incorporate the Mixel tribe theme into an armed/military look. I knocked these out over about three weeks and had so much fun doing so that I'm kind of sad I'm done. I so can't wait for Series 5 and 6!
