If shot in the head with sufficiently high-caliber ammunition, they would squeal on the bullet's impact. Gekko communicated by lowing like cattle or chirping like cicadas their footsteps also resemble the sound of a horse trot. Gekko did this via a release of accumulated lactic acid as a yellow-green liquid from an orifice between the hips. Since they were made of living muscle tissue, the legs produced lactic acid, which accumulated with muscle activity and had to be expelled periodically. The engine system of the Gekko had a power output of 650HP.īeing bio-mechanical, a Gekko had a circulatory system that used blood to nourish its legs. For unknown reasons, the central front area of each hip had a warning sign forbidding anyone from trying to strike at this area.Ī Gekko possessed a long retractable whip-like appendage with three small manipulators on the end that could extend forward from the underside of the body to a distance of over 20 feet, allowing the Gekko to perform a wide range of tasks on the battlefield. Because each hip was connected to the body via a ball joint, a Gekko's legs had a very large range of motion. Owing to this, the legs, despite largely being mechanical, strongly resembled the muscles of living organisms. The legs were composed of artificially created muscle tissue cloned from the stem cells of ungulate embryos. These legs, unlike the head, neck, body and hips, were biological, save for the claw on the heel. A Gekko also had aural sensors, enabling it to detect sound.Īttached to the hips were a pair of very strong legs with three-toed clawed feet and a single large claw on each heel. The joint connecting the head to the neck allowed the head to turn 360 degrees.īoth atop the head and between the hips at the front of the body was a dome-shaped sensor capable of detecting visible and infrared light and equipped with night vision and other enhanced imaging abilities, such as the ability to scan through solid objects. Like the head, the neck, body and hips were mechanical all were connected via mechanical joints. This was connected via a neck to a smaller body, at the back of which were two large, hip-like structures. A Gekko had a large mechanical turret-like head whose shape gave the impression of a face and snout.
