Well, I decided to give up on the shoulder boosters and the huge shield and just post my latest gundam as is. It's 15.5" tall, and very stable, even more so than my Zaku (which was only 12" tall). To see the GP02A, go to (URL) You have to scroll (...) (24 years ago, 7-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Hello again, all- just announcing a site update here. I've recently expanded to include trains as well as space creations. So far the train offerings are pretty slim, but there will be more to come soon. The site: (URL) recently rearranged some (...) (24 years ago, 7-Sep-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space, lugnet.trains)

(...) Steering assembly parts? How does that work? I cannot tell from your photos. Also which axis does the hip turn on? (ie; does it only provide turn out?) And finally do the gears on the back turn the legs out? Bryce McGlone (24 years ago, 6-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

I didn't use click-hinges on the hips of my Juggernaut... I used technic steering assembly parts. ~M (24 years ago, 6-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Alex, I really like the Mammoth. Great job on the click hing hip joint. It reminds me of Mladen's Mirage legs. Are those legs really that stable? I may have to use your ideas here. I'm going out on a limb here and saying that I like click (...) (24 years ago, 6-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Thanks Jay! Yeah, definitely by limiting yourself to using specific pieces and only a couple of colours you really start thinking more about how you want to use each piece.
