Arccharger’s Exosuit looks simple, but has a very interesting design. It looks fun to play with, it looks cool with the figure riding in it or just sitting by itself, and as I’m writing this I’m also contemplating how I might adapt the design into a MOC of my own. I think that’s enough to earn it’s place in our weekly spotlight.

Arccharger based the design on the Alien’s Power Loader, the yellow colorscheme and crossbar seating system come directly from the vehicle Ripley uses to fight off the queen alien. I love how easy it is to seat the figure in: Just line his back up with the axles, pull the bar down, and plug his hands into the exosuit’s arms! As you can see in the pictures, the rider and suit have great articulation, even though the rider has no bending elbows! The suit’s “Uniter” toa body also allows the legs far more flexibility, making great use of the turntable hip.
