Pat, Anything that transforms is by definition much more difficult than building either a mecha or a spaceship. I really like the spaceship. On the mecha I agree with your critique.

(...) Monkeys also fit in a 2-wide space. They'd make plausible pilots, with basically four hands and a prehensile tail. And let's face it- who doesn't want a race of superintelligent space monkeys piloting his mechs? -- Tony Hafner www.hafhead.com (23 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

One more question, Do you great builders of MOC's plan your mecha before you build? BTW if you want me to shut up till I show my talent( not saying you will or anything) just tell me, and I'll try. It's kind of hard not to comment. Oz (23 years ago, 2-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
