Simply amazing. I wish there were more close-ups so I could study some of the techniques used in building the mecha. I can see that I have a lot to learn in the realm of mecha building. Thanks for sharing with us, Ken! ~Mark (24 years ago, 30-Jul-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) A quick estimate shows a 5ft x3ft design would require around 6000 of the standard 4x2 stud lego bricks. Lego direct currently sells these at $6.99 a hundred, so you are looking at $840.
