Hi all, Hot on the heels of my Erghiez is the CFP Battle Armor[1]. (URL) small battlesuit made of 5 distinct parts (torso/arms, feet x2, arm controllers x2).

Sun, The EVA is fannnntastic! Really, really nice. The scale is perfect, the execution deceptively simple. It has just the right amount of shaping and articulation to make it 'realistic' (in the sense that it evokes the original design) and fun to (...) (23 years ago, 10-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Hey Jeff, I gotta say I do understand what you are saying, but I think the fact remains that Bryce has been around alot longer and he just probably thought the list did'nt make sense to him.
