I don't know that I'd see the Rabbit Wrecker before. I like it--it's a nice whimsical design. The bay looks cool too, but since the pictures aren't public yet I can't say a whole lot more than that. Good work! Peter (18 years ago, 20-Nov-06, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

I love this mecha! I especially enjoy the hand design (which I haven’t seen before) and the use of technic bricks for weaponry on the chest. The track mechanism for cockpit access is also very cool. A great MOC overall. -Carl (18 years ago, 4-Nov-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
