METAL GEAR REX [ORIGAMI]





This robotic weapon comes from the third installment of the Metal Gear game series titled Metal Gear Solid. In the game, Metal Gears are autonomic bipedal armed tanks that also function as a nuclear launch platform.

The prominent factor is that I made this Metal Gear REX completely from paper.







The long magnetic railgun is used to fire untraceable nuclear warheads anywhere around the world. With this, there is no launch flare or propellant trail to trace the origin of the launched warhead.






The radar dome works as a scanner to sweep for information about the environment around REX. One major flaw in this model is the radar dome itself. If heavily damaged, the pilot has to expose himself to view the surroundings.




Looks like a frog from the back.

Lastly, I've also uploaded the templates to build this weapon. CLICK HERE  for the master files & instruction on how to make your own REX. Have fun folks!
