Homemade LEGO Tachikoma Walks and Rolls Into Our Hearts

For me, the characters that stole the show in Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex were the excitable, adorable, and occasionally philosophical Tachikoma spider tanks. Now, LEGO modder Peer Kreuger has created a spectacular build which mimics three of the Tachikoma’s primary capabilities: Rolling, walking, and hand waving. His model, instructions for which can be found here, can roll like an RC car but then switch to walking to cover rough terrain. All this while sticking true to the iconic design from the anime.
