I suppose I'm offering criticism, but please accept it as constructive :) IMO, the ship looks a bit too "flimsy" to withstand the high-G forces of high-speed flight. Your ship looks like more of a lo-G glider to my eye. I tend to build mine SOLID (...) (25 years ago, 24-Apr-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space)

Hi Dave, Your mecha are beautiful as always, but I have a couple of questions: 1) Doesn't the use of a single peg at the shoulder make your mecha difficult to pose? It seems like they'd fall apart if you try to extend the arm forward. Do you use the (...) (25 years ago, 24-Apr-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build)

Very nice work Sean! That exterior is going to look very very impressive as it grows higher. I like the elevators and the lobby, too, you put some nice human touches in there! Kevin (25 years ago, 24-Apr-00, to lugnet.build)

I have a tough time describing the parts I use, but I'll give it a whirl. I've found the best hip joints are the black technic peg hinges. They consist of 2 parts, on one end of each part is a half technic peg and the other is a 3 or 2 finger hinge. (...) (25 years ago, 24-Apr-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build)

Very Cool design!!! I liked the way the bomb chutes(sp?) are blended with the wings. It makes the ship more 3d, that is something that I am still working on with my models. of course, I like any model that can seperate into smaller units which you (...) (25 years ago, 24-Apr-00, to lugnet.build)

Impressive, (which I have come to expect from you)! I can imagine just how much 1x1 and 1x2 bricks you are going to need, but it will be worth it. So far the design is very effective. I also like the details you always add in such as the elevators, (...) (25 years ago, 24-Apr-00, to lugnet.build)

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