This is so strange for me to build multiples of a mech. But here they are. Something about the poseability that gets me. Even if it's missing a couple of ranges of movement. (Leg side kick-out, waist rotate) I'll build these into the next generation (...) (23 years ago, 16-Mar-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
