This thing is beautiful. Your style reminds me of Gla-gla. Very clean, studless, and semi-greebly. Hurry up and build something else. -Brayton (20 years ago, 5-Oct-04, to lugnet.build.mecha)

dooooode, that is fantastic! Wow, the head is very very nice. The chest uses those wedge plates to advantage. The parts on the ankles are very cool. In fact the look and feel of the entire leg structure is very pleasing. The feet are well done. (...) (20 years ago, 4-Oct-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
