(...) Hey, nice! I like the way your suit opens up, very cool with the back/arms/shoulders swinging down like that. And the front enclosure is pretty neat too. But the untold gems of this suit are those large curved slopes on the legs. That's a (...) (20 years ago, 27-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
