Hi Ken. I am really diggin the collapsible leg design. Very clever. I think it would be possible for you to rework the hands so you could have possible fingers. You could use the click hinge design or something similar to Adam Silicott's mechs. F (18 years ago, 7-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) I like your model a lot. It's interesting - more than other mecha designs, gundams are very recognizable from their color schemes. This makes for some very good looking micro sized models. Keep it up! Chris (18 years ago, 7-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha)
