The Locust is an "unseen" mech whose image came from the Anime franchise "Crusher Joe". There were two castings of the Locust in the 1980s. The older one is very tall and spindly, and the date on the base appears to say 1986. The second casting was smaller and very common in its time. In 2002, a new "reseen" version was released, using different non-anime art. Shortly afterwards, a rocket launcher variant was also released.
