It's been a while since I went to DITRI. It looks like Mr Fujisawa has been busy. While I've seen most if those mechas, a few are new. Fairly large as far as mechs go. I think he only uses technic pins and hinges for the joints. Anyway back to work (...) (24 years ago, 14-Mar-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
