Gun Sabre

Gun Sabre is another of my original concept customs.  I really like the Tomy Saber Tiger kit and wanted to build a custom that made it truly intimidating.  I had just received my first CP-15 and it just screamed with custom potential.  And the Gun Sabre is the result of a couple weeks of work.

This custom started out as a Hasbro Zaber Fang kit, combined with a CP-02 Flight Pack and some CP-15 Assault Gatling Units.  After some fiddling and trial and error fitting parts on my Tomy Saber Tiger, I had my plan mapped out in my head.  The paint job is a combination of flat gray body and dark blue accents.  The claws, fangs, tubes and cannons are painted steel.  Also, I left the caps the unpainted gray, as it fit with the paint scheme I was going for.  The CP-02 is mounted in the normal position, with the only modification being the removal of the mortar pod.  In it's place, I cemented a CP-15 rocket box.  Then I used 3 gatling cannons from the CP-15 and mounted 2 on the sides of the CP-02 and 1 on the back, facing the rear.  The coil springs were added after lots of touch-ups, the Gun Sabre was finished.

The story behind the Gun Sabre is this.  The Gun Sabre is the personal Zoid of a mercenary leader (think Stinger from the anime) and carries no markings or identifiable designations.
