Those are some pretty cool giant killer robots. Makes me think of this bad, old 80's sci fi flick. Robot Jox. (no, that's not a misspelling)

Bad? That movie was awesome. Admittedly I was about 10 years old at the time it came out, but I watched the heck out of that film as a kid.

For "bad versus awesome" you can't beat Honest Trailers' take on Pacific Rim. I think giant fighty robots are sort of intrinsically simultaneously super dumb and super awesome.

Although, as I think about it, what this KS really makes me realize is that I have a whole mess of Monsterpocalypse figs that don't get nearly enough play. :D
