I must admit I thought the original versio was pretty ordinary, but you're redesign has taken it from what looked like a first mech to something that looks like you've been building mech for years. The new legs are a treat. Cheating is allowed (...) (20 years ago, 1-Jun-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| Here are some slightly better pics. I completely redid the arms and beefed up the ankle joint, but I'm still stuck on the hands. This model is the perfect size to keep any hand I've seen from being proportionally correct. (2 URLs) Enjoy. -Brayton (20 years ago, 31-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| Great job, it has a lot of personality! It is very kangaroo-like. It does not appear to be heavily armed though, but maybe equipping it with huge rocket launchers, missile racks and a railgun would detract from the main theme. Can't help but wonder (...)

| Wow. That's really cool. I'd like to see it fight Adrian's turkey to the death. Really beautiful construction, too. The legs are my favorite, lots of schleim. I'm kind of disapointed that the pouch doesn't launch a mini Roomech though... Soren (20 years ago, 31-May-04, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.build.mecha)
