| Bobby, Well done! This is really nice, it has such a nice smooth shape to it, cool, I really like the engines on the back, very cool, they look sweet back there. I'm interested in your method of attaching the armour skirts, they are very well done, (...) (23 years ago, 15-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| (...) Something they should (and probably won't) release immediately is an accessory pack of just the hinges with friction pins on either end -- no arm lengths! They probably can't do anything smaller than the 2x2x2 socket element based on the (...) (23 years ago, 15-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.lego.direct)

If I add more weapons to the Black Metal in the future however, I will most likely take your advice and beef up the (...) (23 years ago, 15-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
