“Check out this incredible mushi (bug) mecha that was profiled on the Japanese TV show “Nanikore Chin Hakkei” last night… Designed and built by an Ibaraki man in his garage over the course of eleven years, the “Kabutom MX-03″ looks like a prop from a Power Rangers spin-off but is an actual working vehicle. Why build it? Because owning an eleven meter long, fifteen ton robot beetle makes you a mack daddy — in Japan or anywhere else.”
