I know, isn't it horrible? Hey Eric, if you need help, bring Jama's remains to NWBC. I'll help get him back together if it takes all weekend. I'm not passing up a chance to see Jama in the brick, no matter what. Take care, Soren (URL) (21 years ago, 12-Sep-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

All right, here goes: Colors: A little freaky at first, but you just can't go wrong with Sand Green. The light gray doesn't bother me at all. Design: Ehhh, not very impressed beyond the joints. Shoulders look flimsy. Do they hinge upwards? (...) (21 years ago, 12-Sep-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Thanks, Paul! The color scheme grew out of a need to build those shoulders since the curved half panels aren't available in Dark Grey. I wouldn't mind revisiting the model design with a different colorscheme, but at this point, the parts (...) (21 years ago, 12-Sep-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Dave, For what it's worth, I really like the color scheme. The sand green is probably one of my favorite Lego colors. I really like the head and the shoulders look pretty cool as well. I have a potential suggestion, though I don't know if it will (...) (21 years ago, 12-Sep-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
