8 Great Mechs in Media

Sometimes there are mechanized weapons that people can pilot, this gallery is about such things. So hop into a ‘mech and make sure not to overheat.

Hawken will let you blast your way to victory, that is, once you master the elaborate controls.

One mech is nice, but several are better. Voltron makes sure to be more inclusive with its lions, and the ultimate Voltron that can make a sword out of… nothing.

Though Titanfall is still on the horizon. The trailers alone made even those that didn’t love mechs drool with excitement.

Lost Planet 3 takes place on a cold, desolate planet that’s much more manageable when piloting a mech.

Among all of the fantastical things in Sucker Punch, the best is the Bunny Mech. It makes the movie so fantastically surreal we can’t help but fall to our knees in mech appreciation.

The anticipation alone leading up to Pacific Rim was epic. When it was finally released, the payoff was amazing, especially when the mechs went toe to toe with the weird Kaiju from the sea.

Not many remember the pioneering Robot Wars, but those that do make sure to watch it often and to never forget.

Robot Jox may have come out in a much less mech friendly time, but through the years we’ve caught up with it, and it may finally get the appreciation it deserves.
