Hi, I'm Mark and I have been trying to build a mecha. Somehow my try doesn't look right. So I put my question to you Mecha-Experts. Are there any specific aspects that a Mecha should have? I mean, the 6949 Robo-Guardian and the four Roboforce models (...) (23 years ago, 8-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Hi Chris! Welcome to LUGNET! I really like your mecha. The tranforming Supernova looks awesome, as does the Musashi. Very cool mecha.

I'll admit it, I'm suitably impressed. Mecha in that design are tough enough to get standing properly, but if it has true articulation on a mecha that size then...wow! From the pics, it appears to be roughly four times the size of my Warthog (...) (23 years ago, 7-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
