back from your trip?

Action poses are a problem due to the chronic lack of worm gears, but they are
not out of the question.

Although the frame could really
use a few worm gears for added stability, it works fine without them.  I hope
that since I have proven it is entirely possible to build a very large Gundam
using primarily Castle and Pirate sets that other builders follow suit in
Gundam construction.
Just one more thing, Neo-Oz scientists have noticed strange anomalies around
the sun of their star system.  A large magnetic burst is scheduled for June 7
(I am leaving the country) which will completely cut of their planet from the
rest of the universe.  If you have any question or comments, well, now is
the time.

Keep up the good work!  I look forward to seeing future creations (that six
footer you were talking about?)!
This is a problem and that is why I am releasing as many pictures of ZERO now.
See, I do not know if I am coming back or not, and if I do not my Legos will
be stuck here.  Chances of me completing a 6ft Gundam are extremely slim at
best. This is why I am trying to inspire people to build large Gundams, for
chances are I will not be able to even attempt such a thing for the next
several years.

Maybe you will be able to make that six foot Gundam one day.

At 12:08AM Pacific Time Neo-Oz military officials have finally released
additional images of Gundam ZERO.  Major highlights: ZERO holding the Gallet
Gun II, and the Gundam released from its support column.  You can see the
pictures at Neo-Oz's main web site:

Or directly through here:

Specs of the Gundam ZERO:
Height: 4ft
Width: 3ft
Weight: Unknown (estimated at 8 pounds)
Specials: The whole Gundam has only 2 worm gears and none of the parts have
been modified (I call it mutilated) or "adapted" to fit ZERO's purpose.  The
Gundam is held together by an internal frame (of which I am rather proud) • built
entirely out of 2 old Technic sets and standard System parts.  (Note: the • older
Technic sets have much tougher black pins).

Enjoy

P.S.
I am not posting anything after midnight from now on.
