How it works
How he's made.
MechaGodzilla's arms, shoulders, hips, knees, head, and tail are each independently servo-controlled, enabling a wide range of expressive poses and combat sequences. The animated OLED eyes display a variety of expressions, while the chest features a separate OLED display. Lighting effects on the tail and neck add drama to attack sequences. All movement and effects are coordinated wirelessly over MQTT, so the figure can be controlled from a phone, computer, or integrated into a larger automated arena.
