I'm using turntables and the body frame is like that of the Rizmit. (so far) White and Dark Grey (...) (20 years ago, 13-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Take out one leg, and it looks like those legs could be taken out quite easily, and it's down for the count. Four or (...) (20 years ago, 12-May-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
