Well, I decided to give up on the shoulder boosters and the huge shield and just post my latest gundam as is. It's 15.5" tall, and very stable, even more so than my Zaku (which was only 12" tall). To see the GP02A, go to (URL) You have to scroll (...) (24 years ago, 7-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
