  Re: The Jamocklaquat
 
(...) Wow! Great model. I remember seeing the very early pictures of that a year or two back when you only had the head and some of the torso completed. The fully completed model looks awesome! Nice work. (22 years ago, 29-Apr-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Eric, You've outdone yourself again! This is one of the best achievements in LEGO bricks that I have seen. Really an awesome creation.

Man, you got it done! "She's a bad mama Jama..." Nice, clean design - very well refined. And lots of motors everywhere, as evidenced by the trail of wires... will Jamocklaquat be able to high-five gomgile? Cool, I'll wait for more pics... Congrats, (...)

WooHoo! Jama is complete! When I think of all the Jama update we've been through to get to the finished product all I can say is: It was worth it! Jamocklaquat is so very impressive, Eric. 50 inches tall? darn...got me beat by a mere 15.5 inches. :P (...) (22 years ago, 30-Apr-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Eric, That is too cool for actual words. Taken from Will Farrell's James Lipton, it's "absolutely scrumtrulescent." I can't wait to see it IRL. Great job! -Bruce LEGO @ Bruce's Homepaeg - (URL) (22 years ago, 1-May-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
