Its turret profile, armament of heavy caliber machine guns and missiles, hinged legs, and overall height greatly resembles the [[w:c:metalgear:Gekko|Gekko biomechanical fighting vehicle]] from the 2008 video game ''Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots''. A large, port-side, front-facing radar dome is reminiscent of the prototype metal gear [[w:c:metalgear:Metal Gear REX|REX]] first introduced in 1998's ''Metal Gear Solid'' and reintroduced in ''Guns of the Patriots''.
The overall design of the vehicle greatly resembles the [[w:c:metalgear:Metal Gear REX|Metal Gear REX]] from the [[wikipedia:Metal Gear series|Metal Gear series]].
