Hey all. I finished my first "small" mecha. I decided a while ago to try and make a "buffed out" throwbot piece based mech. I was trying to capture the "feel" of a gorilla and still keep it a mecha. Obviously Optimus Primal influenced the design. (...) (24 years ago, 17-Mar-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
