WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW that is the COOLEST bot I've seen in YEARS. The use if those
girder pieces is a bit bulky since it lacks any special elbow joint, but I still
<3 it. Hats off to you. There are all sorts of other cool things to see. I like
how you did the waist. What are those, fanbelt wheels? I love the detailed
texturing. The hook on the hand is also a nice touch. Awesome.

Very few robots make me chuckle when I see them.
Congrats.

I like models that make me imagine how they might be practical in their funky
details.
This would be a good utility robot for inhospitable environments.
The "hat" seems like a protector for the canopy (micrometeorites, solar
radiation, or you could work in your Looney Tunes print pajamas and nobody would
know).
The "glasses" provide a thicker covering that the pilot can still see through.
The "moustache", well, um, more protective covering.
The arms look like solid spars, but I can imagine that the round corner bars are
really a flexible material and the inner zig-zag structure acts like a muscle to
make the arms bend - much stronger than an arm with elbow joints.
I like the overall industrial style.

Why do you have two robots mingled in the same directory? Wait a minute--those
are the same robot! The Groucho glasses totally threw me!

I just love the retro styling- the tires in the torso, the leg shaping, the big
dome head... very nice. The gimmick is fun, too. Nice work.

"Do you make your donuts fresh?"
What a great idea, and well executed. The 8x radar dish seems bulky when the
disguise is off, but that's my only nitpick in what is otherwise fantastic.

I just love your Brickshelf folder, and all of the creations, including this
one.
I find it hard to focus on one MOC. I'm checking out your minimecha, and then
leap over to your misc. folder with the desklamp (why does it hate the letter
"I"?)
Your "Red Ronin" mecha from the "Robo Platoon" set is spot on, as is your robo
cat. Your space joust ostrich mecha is brilliant!
Didn't mean to distract attention from your GuiseBot, but it's great to stumble
upon a gallery that keeps me interested...it's a real bobby-dazzler!
Later,
Chris

I saw some of your work on Brickshelf and was bowled over! You have a great eye
for colour, detail, shape and form... The photography is awesome, it really
shows off your work. I like the Crimson Finch most of all, the Guisebot is
great, but for me the Finch is my kind of Mecha along with some of your smaller
works like the BiPedo...
Keep it coming!
