Patlabor + Front Mission = MORAV?

Found this while wandering the intergoogles. The synopsis strikes me as a melange of anime/videogame plots -- chiefly Patlabor for its multipurpose "Labor" robots, and the Front Mission series for purpose-built "Wanzer" mil-bots and the geopolitics of their deployment -- plus others to a lesser extent, like Wolf Brigade for its alternate history of Japan during WW2.

Of note: Grant Imahara of Mythbusters fame is involved, and -- with this in mind -- Mine personnel, please observe the map of "Tangri" and take note of any similarities to realworld locations.
