   This is an excellent post. While I believe that LEGO is cool because you can build whatever you want, I think that for a long time most of the creations in .mecha aren’t even Mecha. They can be some cool creations but they don’t really push forward the ideas and culture of the real Japanese genre.

I’m going to head off a long and flame ridden argument by asking for clarification here. What, exactly, does this mean?

Probably a good idea. I don’t have any malice towards other styles. I love almost all LEGO building. What I mostly mean is that I think the content of the group should strive to meet the coolness that is its name: Mecha. I think this is the foundation of the group and I think Stuart recognizes this.

  
   This is one of the main reasons I haven’t been more active in the group. Now to be sure, I *do not* consider most of the few Robriq I have made to be Mecha. Robriq for me is what I’m making as I try to learn how to build Mecha. Probably mostly cute Mecha, but you get the idea. So I’m not saying in any way that I’m a mecha builder,(I want to be) but I feel like I know what looks good.

Doesn’t Toshiro count?

Oh hell yeah, but your Fuchi beat up my Fuchi a long time ago. :D
