Synergy II

Synergy II
Enjoy the video, don't forget to rate and comment!

This is an intermediate/expert build. If you already have the Juggernaut constructed, this is going to be easier as Synergy II is basically a hugely modified version of it.

You can make "Little Brother" from Steps 2, 3, 6 and 7 if you really want it.

Step 1Continued introduction

Continued introduction
Seeing as Step 1 is now shown on the introduction step, I'll show you what to expect from this build:

If you watched the Scout203a video, you will have noticed that the door broke. This is because the brackets that held it on were situated near the ground. This made the susceptible to breaking. 
Also, the turret now has a rotation lock. In step 6, you will be given the option to lock the turret, i.e stop it rotating. This is good of yo want this as a toy to pull around, because it is a lot stronger with a more stable centre of gravity. However, you can choose to skip step 6 if you wish. If you want minor rotation, as in roughly 30 degrees, then you can opt for high side armour, which stops the turret rotating beyond them. If you want full 360 degree rotation, you must skip step six and choose the smaller side armour (the yellower one) out of the two examples given in step 3.

Sorry that I've been inactive for some time now, but it's good to be back.

I love it, Lowney. I like little boy best, but Synergy is very good too. These tanks look very good with those turrets, I know it's very hard to make a knex tank.

Sorry, no can do buddy. I don't have a camera and don't have any way to upload them. But, I filled in the empty spaces in the tank so it looks more solid.

You know that would be cool but I don't have that many metallic colors. Besides, it looks way cooler right now.
