Real life giant kabuto mecha will invade the shores of America in future wars

My greatest fantasies are one step closer to coming true. A 60 year old man (or crazy scientist) has spent eleven years of his life to create a giant mecha beetle; to be more specific, a giant rhinoceros beetle. The “Kabutom RX-03″ is an eleven meter long masterpiece, and weighs in at fifteen tons. It is controlled within the robots cockpit, but can also be controlled by remote; awkwardly named “Kabutom Ragio Controrea.”

This isn’t just a prop, but can move as well. It drags itself using its giant legs, with help from the wheels located at the bottom of the beetle’s thorax. It can also hold up to six adults soldiers in its abdomen. Seriously, I wouldn’t mind at all if my house was trampled over by a legion of these tanks when Japan invades America; I’d be too busy fapping vigorously to help defend my country. Check out this bad boy in action after the jump.
