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 "cellophane method" here?

2) Does the use of the 1-peg high 1x4 lateral hinges at the joints make
the arms and legs "floppy?" All of my 1x4 lateral hinges are floppy... how
do you get around this?

3) Do you ever put minifigs inside your mecha? I'd love to see what you
would do with a cockpit design for a mecha.
