Glad you liked it Brendan. I know that some people prefer a "pure" LEGO mountain (so would I, but I'd rather use the limited bricks I have for other projects), I modeled it after a mountain that was on the cover of a S@H catalog I saw a few years (...) (25 years ago, 24-Apr-00, to lugnet.town)

Thanks Pat, I built the Saidin Mecha first, and it was by far my best micro-fig scale mecha to date.
