Do you have some obsession with size?
I'm sorry to say this...
But I'm not really that inspired or amazed by your Gundam. I mean sure the size
is huge, but what else is there. The arms on your mecha look way too thin, the
hands are too small, the head is way too large, the shoulders are half built...
Sure, you might have reached the height benchmark, but you sure did sacrifice
looks, among other things such as movement of the limbs.
To me, a good LEGO model is something that has a great design. The whole point
of building with LEGO is to make something that, well looks cool. I'm not
saying that your mecha isn't cool, I'm just saying that all you seem to care
about is reaching a certain height in your model. To me, a cool LEGO Gundam can
be 10 cm tall, or 22 inches tall, as long as it looks good and is complete. But
your Gundam is 4 feet tall, yet lacks certain things that make a Gundam a
Gundam (see above paragraph).
Now I know I'll probably receive flames by posting this, and I know that you
can build whatever you want to build, but I'm just trying to give a little
constructive criticism.
If you have a rebuttal to anything I say in this post, well let me hear it!

Mladen Pejic, over and out!
