The poor, forgotten third member of the trio of Martian machines from H.G. Wells' War of the Worlds, the Embankment Machine is a digging and excavation automaton built by the Martians and used to shore up the walls of their pit beachhead.
It doesn't get much of a description in the novel, so I've used my imagination.

Almost skeletal remains of an old steam locomotive sits at the end of a line of similar machines, in the Train Cemetery, Uyuni. I get the impression a lot of the removable parts had been taken over time by souvenir hunters and folks decorating their nearby by B&Bs or Hostels, our place apparently had a variety of metal work from here.

It looks like the old loco is either:
756 (FCAB 333) or 751 (FCAB 334) 4-6-2 Henschel Built in 1914.

Do you know what The Useless Machine is? Well, this is almost useless machine as The Useless Machine. I don't know why should anyone use this, but I am not so good with technic parts so I am experimenting. When you press one of three buttons on each side rock, paper or
scissors will pop up.
Bombo Quarry | Kiama | NSW | Australia
The conditions were awesome this morning at Bombo, the swell was big and the tide was high and we were very close to the action, which was pretty sweet. I have no idea were all the clouds were hiding tho, yet again.
I have got a few different shots with the wave action, I might upload later.

This is my mod of the Mystery Machine. I think LEGO did a great job with the set but I wanted the van to be able to fit all of the gang.

A Hawkwind classic (imo) from my younger days.
It flies
Sideways through time
It's an electric line
To your zodiac sign
I've got a silver machine
I've got a silver machine
I've got a silver machine
It flies out of a dream
It's antiseptically clean
You're gonna know where I've been

A heavily modified version of the Baron Prototype, the DASH Baron was made purely to compete in the Mecha Racing League. Designed to withstand a beating during races while still maintaining high top speeds, the DASH is definitely something you should watch out for in MRL.
Pilot: Baron Ishi
No one knows for certain if Baron Ishi is his real name or if he's even a human being but his patient yet deadly driving style has earned him a reputation in the league. Some say he's actually a cyborg with an advanced AI program designed by ARMaTech to drive their hulking speedster mech while others swear he's just a really cold human being, sick of piloting war machines and opts to drive a humanoid coffin at high speeds instead.
Special Ability: Shell Rush
Using both heavy arm guards, the DASH will charge towards an opposing mech, crushing them with deadly blunt force.
Special Ability: DASH Rush
The special Quorus heatsinks at the rear of the DASH activates and grants the reFrame increased speed, mobility, and reaction time although using this ability puts a lot of stress on the machine and can only be used once or twice before having the heatsinks replaced.

For those interested in LEGO mech building, I put out an eBook over at Amazon Kindle a while back called Mech Wars Instructional Primer. If you’re looking for a resource that could help you start or even improve your mech building skills, you might find this eBook useful :D
