Sort of a custom wallpaper based on one of my favorite animes

The story takes place in what was, at the time of release, the near future of 1998-2002. Robots called "Labors" are employed in heavy construction work. The Tokyo Metropolitan Police has its own fleet of Patlabors to combat crimes and deal with accidents involving Labors. The story arcs usually revolve around Tokyo Metropolitan Police Special Vehicle Section 2, Division 2.

The development of labors proves to be a boon to construction projects around the world. However, the increase of labors sparks a new type of crime: labor crime. To combat labor crime, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department creates its own labor division, Special Vehicles Section 2. At first, SV2 uses the ancient ASUKA-MPL96 Taisyo, which has simply been painted in police colors and outfitted with a siren. As labors become more advanced, SV2 keeps up with the times by replacing the Taisyo with the AV-98 Ingram, a labor designed specifically for law enforcement by Shinohara Heavy Industries. The Ingram's advanced design allows for more human-like movements. As a law enforcement labor, the Ingram is equipped with an anti-labor stun stick and a 37mm revolver cannon, but it can also carry a shotgun-like 90mm riot cannon. To facilitate transport to the field, each Ingram features its own transport trailer.

I own the entire show on DVD and the first two movies, now I just need the first and second OVAs. Props on the Ingrams.

Ugh! I hate adding comments too soon. These are the kind of robots I'd be interested in working with: Eric Krockett's suit of armor being one of these Ingrams, perhaps?

I had a couple takes of that series! I loved that concept, especially the one the former Motorcycle cop girl (who became the pilot) named Alphonse. After her dog.

And instead of making mecha, the japs focus on the little stuff. Here's hoping they actually get mecha some day.

Why aren't the guns attached? Then they won't drop them.

Well, the ability to use hand held weaponry gives the ingram more versatility, plus another theory might be the fact that having a built in weapon system might have been to costly.

Mmhmm. Well, I just asked that on my brother's whim.
