In a blur of Mlcading I completed a dat model of my J-21 Repair Mech (I like

Personally, I use "mecha" as the plural form of "mech".  :)  For example, I'd
say "Your new mech is cool!" and "I really like all of your mecha!".  :D

I tend to say "mech" for two reasons:  I paid attention in Battletech before
I started paying attention to Robotech; and when I say "mecha" most people ask
if I've ever made the hadj.  "Mech" is also in use in other places, and is
therefore more easily recognized as something to do with machinery; e.g. "mech
engineering" is short-speak for "mechanical engineering".

The minifig operator of this mech seems to making claims about his prowess as
a fisher.  I can imagine him saying something like; "I swear the fish was
THIS big".

assembly was THIS big."  ;-)

Great model, Pat.  :-,
