@Blockman
That was an influence in the packing/folding idea.
@Iv121
That's no weiner! It's an nose-mounted anti-personnel LMG! silly... :P
@CaptainSporatic
I was really happy with how they turned out. My original plans were for the mechs to fit in a 7x7x7m cube so I could load in 9 per level for a total of 27 per standard container. But after I finished the first one, I realized it could be 2 meters shorter if I just folded the barrels and slid back nose-gun! By doing that, I was able to fit in an extra 3 per level! Very exciting stuff...
@LJS
Thanks, but unfortunately I'm still unable to upload anything from my computer to my Dropbox. I bought a new one over Thanksgiving and I should be able to set it up this weekend! Hopefully I can get those to you soon, until then, you're stuck with photos like everyone else...

36 mechs per three level container. The container is a 25 block cube so I can fit like 20 in my largest ship's mech bay!

Re: Terran Trade Confederation
20 containers it would suck if my biggest ship was so small to only fit 20 mechs.

Re: Terran Trade Confederation
Yeah, it ate a massive chunk of time, though. Right now I am making ships to fill it with, and other little bits, I'll post some pics when I finish, but its been in development forever.

@Instinct
Actually no, the Heavy Battle-Mech can break down and fit one to a Standard Container!
P.S. Would you guys mind spoilering those photos for me?
Edit: Thanks!
