New Papercraft has been published at PaperCraftSquare: Link: http://www.papercraftsquare.com/genesis-climber-mospeada-vr-052f-mospeada-free-robot-paper-model-download.html Paper Craft Name: Genesis Climber MOSPEADA - VR-052F Mospeada Free Robot Paper Model Download Description:

This robot paper model is VR-052F Mospeada Battloid, a mech from the anime sci-fi series Genesis Climber MOSPEADA (stands for Military Operation Soldier Protection Emergency Aviation Dive Armor, one of the transformable motorcycle-armors the series features), the papercraft is created by [unknown].

For the purpose of conducting the first drop operation, Mars Base felt that firepower, armor, mobility and the ability to penetrate enemy territory were absolutely imperative to even the odds with the Inbit after landing on Earth to compensate for the low number of soldiers. The Ride-Armor system satisfies these requirements and is the most effective and compact weapon system developed. The Ride-Armor System consists of two parts: a soldier wearing a bulletproof and crashproof Riding Suit and a motorcycle called an armor-bike. A soldier using this equipment can quickly penetrate enemy territory. When he encounters the enemy, he can quickly transform the armor-bike into the ride-armor form. In this configuration, he can attack the enemy using the feedback-controlled enhanced strength of the ride-armor and heavier firepower. Jets greatly increase the mobility of the ride-armor form. These jets allow the suit to hover along the ground and make jet-assisted leaps.

Three armor-bikes were produced. The Mospeada is the standard model and was produced in larger numbers than the other two. The Mospeada has two variants. The F model, used by Stick, has a missile launcher installed on each forearm. The T model, used by Rei, has a laser cannon. The Mospeada is the most popular mecha design in Genesis Climber Mospeada. Even during the show’s production it was so popular with the staff and seen as such an important part of the story that the show was named after it. It appears that the name "Mospeada" came from the design’s original name: Moto Speeder. [Source: Gearsonline]

Here are VR-052 Battler Veritech Cyclone Battloid and Motorcycle paper models, from the sci-fi mecha anime Robotech / Macross, the papercrafts are created by [unknown].

The VR-052 Cyclone was the standard variable motorcycle/armor mecha of the Robotech Expeditionary Force infantry. The Cyclone came in two modes, the -T model used for light assault missions and was armed with an EP-40 ion pulse pistol, and the -F version for frontline assaults, with forearm-mounted mini missiles.

Pilots wore the CVR-3 body armor, which provided attachment points for the mecha's battloid mode. The VR-052 provided a balance between firepower and speed, and was carried aboard Alpha Fighters in case of emergency. Scott Bernard used a VR-052 during his time on Earth in the Third Robotech War.
