This is the first mech that I have built. I had tried earlier but my earlier attempts never got past feet and stick like legs that would colapse when I touched them. I am very happy with the legs of this mech. But I am waiting for more LEGO to (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Not only bulky, but extremely loose fitting. You said you aren't into technic but do you have any aqua zone or arctic stuff? You can use the jointed peices with a techinic peg on one end and either two or three fingers on the other. That joint (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
