Hmmm. It's interesting to see the mecha genre
design cues they've appropriated, also construction
details possibly gleaned from mecha images on brickshelf.

It is a good first effort for a medium sized mecha.
The color scheme is too noisy and unrealistic.
The lower legs have a weird extra joint...etc.

Mecha design sophistication has nothing to do
with parts count, just building experience in the genre.
I hope the designers just don't choose to adopt
an unsophisticated style for future models, thinking
that it suits their target audience. Remember the RoboForce
leg shuffling mecha...
