Sure it's mecha... Wow! I love the way you did the joints, very creative! I also like the upper body, and the front chin mounted laser cannons, great job! Questions: Did you build it in real life?

Heck, yeah... it may be Star Wars, but I think it still qualifies as a mecha. Question: Do the joints move? ~Mark (24 years ago, 16-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

It looks a little like it IMO. Anyway I would like some input on my latest creation: The Star Wars All Terrain Personal Transport. Find it at:(URL) from a sunny Holland, Jay (24 years ago, 16-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Here's a sneak preview of my very first mecha. It's currently named Green Goblin, but we'll see if that name sticks. I don't particularly think he looks like a goblin. Fully poseable, lots of joints, no weaponry yet. I'll likely have a little more (...) (24 years ago, 16-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
