Around 25K for the Mantis, I really don't know how many pcs....it would drive me insane! hahaha Thanks for the compliments, I used to make space craft. I hope to (...)

(...) The only response that I can say to you is I am completely shocked at how well you build mecha. Your Mantis and another large, six legged mecha must have taken 25,000 pieces to build separately. How many were used in your smaller mecha and (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jun-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
