| (...) I think the name Clunker suits the first one to a tee. It reminds me of the Asmiov Powell & Donovan story "Speedy" - they climb on the backs of two really old robots. The one eyed wedge head is a little ominous - but overall it is very well (...) (19 years ago, 5-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

The calves are actually as thick as they possibly can be while allowing enough clearance on the front (above the foot) and in the back (retracting up to the thigh) so the MOAB can squat down low enough to fit in (...)

Everything just came together for me on that Spider, and I still don't know if I'll ever equal that effort. I'm glad (...) (19 years ago, 27-Jun-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
