I've always loved the challenge of transforming, and with enough experience in mecha I've learned to parse the transformation into single joints ahead of time and figure out how to build around them.

Hey, Cool MOC! The proportions make it look sort of mecha-gorilla-ish to me, which makes it menacing. I love the hands and the articulation. The humorous poses made me grin. Bruce (22 years ago, 7-Feb-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Woof! Very smooth. Like you say, who knows what kind of car that is, who cares! It looks cool enough. Dig the way the legs come apart and then the poses, Great! Can't say I'd cut my peices, but that's me. This turned out great! Mark (...) (22 years ago, 7-Feb-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
