PTX-40A is a giant mech from Capcom's
Lost Planet: Extreme Condition. Also known as Ivan, PTX-40A is piloted by Wayne Holden. In Lost Planet, Wayne's Father Gale was the original pilot but was killed. 30 years later, the unit was found by Wayne. PTX-40A is one of the two giant characters playable in Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom, the other being
Gold Lightan.

This
clunky robot is probably my least favorite character in Tatsunoko VS Capcom.
However, I do see the point of this hunk of metal being in the game. He's
definitely fun to fight against (and kill) and sort of fun to use, but still I think Capcom
could have chose a better mech to take this guy's place. For one, he doesn't
hold a candle to Jin
Saotome's Bloodia (any mech from Cyberbots would've been a better
choice, actually). And I would think more fighting game fans would've played or
heard of Cyberbots over Lost Planet.
Personally,
I find PTX boring as a design... his boring name doesn't help the case either.
In fairness, he's not the worst robot design I've seen, and his level 3 super is pretty
damn epic. He definitely looks a lot cooler in his level 3 form.
