The Fox is Xarkon's smallest walker, only recently developed as a prototype. The biggest innovation on this model is its powerful "Fox Ear Detector Dish" (FEDD), which gives the walker an unprecedented range with radar and other detection tools, making it an invaluable tool for reconnaissance and scouting.

The walker also features a powerful new computer-controlled balance system, called "Turbo-Recovery" for its quick ability to get back on its feet if it is knocked over. This allows for fantastic agility, though attempts to make it able to "hop" on one leg after the other is destroyed have been unsuccessful thus far.

Armed with two anti-infantry machine guns and two medium pulse lasers, the Fox can hold its own in a firefight against most vehicles... at least long enough to get away, that is. Its most powerful weapon is its long-range missile rack, which, when combined with the FEDD, make it deadly at a distance.

The walker is able to position itself in a variety of poses, either computer-programmable or controllable by a very skilled walker pilot (particularly if he is using the mind-link control technique).

The Fox's sleek profile and wing-like protrusions also give it fantastic flight ability well beyond that of heavier walkers, especially with its powerful "Starburst" booster engine. The designers attempted to give it full flight capability, but they found it impossible and instead went for merely an extended jump-glide maneuver, which it performs quite well.

The speed of the Fox, with its long stride, is easily equal to that of the Hornet hoverbike. This only increases its usefulness as a recon vehicle, and serves to decrease that of the Hornet.

An observer may take note of the Fox's unusually wide feet. These were designed for balance, adding even more to the walker's stability...

...and its ability to squash things. After all, a walker without the ability to squash things is like a fighter without the ability to fly! Well, almost.

Some of the more macho Xarkon walker pilots dislike the Fox for its "cute," animal-like design. Who knows what they will call this test pilot when he gets back to base?

The Fox beside the Manegarm. Compared with the Jackal and other tried-and-true Xarkon military walkers, these two are actually the newest members of the pack. By the way, these two LEGO models are not actually to scale. The 'garm should be considerably larger.

Don't... mess... with my... kid!
