A scratch-built model of an alternate universe version of Iron Rocks, the mecha Ultraseven battled in episode #21 of his television show.
Supposedly the original concept drawings of Iron Rocks included legs. These were left out when the mecha appeared in the show, probably due to time and cost constraints. The “walking” version of Iron Rocks can be seen when he appeared in manga stories.
I’m very fond of this version of Iron Rocks, and would love to see it make an appearance on-screen soon. It’s a very formidable opponent. The walking version would be relatively easy with the advances in special effects.
