they also rotate on the x-axis, just like the bandai 1/100th scale version.
pics don't show it, though.

i had a really hard time w/the head. it's fairly accuate, save for the wedge
plates that protrude a bit far from the face. if i could truly "bend lego", i
would have the tips of those plates angle more toward the face. it also took
awhile to get the form and proportions correct (all summer!).

thanks again! i am very pleased with the weapons so far, and am debating
whether or not to continue with the others (sniper rifle, etc.). as for the
hands, they are perfectly proportioned to the rest of the model which i had to
go with. unfortunately, they are fragile and rigid (fingers don't bend, etc.).
i had to just place the weapons in the hands and let gravity do the rest.

was it you that did the red eva-14 with the axes? if so, that thing rocked! i
was most impressed with its posability and it actually inspired me to make my
own. if that wasn't yours, then do tell about the first time you made an eva.
