  Re: Female mecha
 
I think Mark is referring to mecha that is anthropomorphically female, not mecha that is piloted by a female. The Queadlunn-Rau armor, while designated as female armor, doesn't look female or make you think of the female form. But I'm a Macross (...) (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Because we can't get the laser technology to work properly yet, but the Navy is currently funding major research & development programs to figure out how to do just that.

(...) Master Grade Lego Models has a version of the Fei-Yen from, umm, dang. I'm blanking on the name of the game. Fighting game (err, video game) with giant robots. Anyway, she's a girl mecha. Go to: (URL) click on the link to 00217. eric (24 years ago, 15-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
