(URL) Click on Image It's been almost a year since I built my last (URL) bipedal mecha>! This time around however, I have finally succeeded in creating a posable mecha without those flimsy ball-joints. The result is surprising sturdy, and can accept (...)

(...) Hey Mladen! I'm always intrigued to see what's coming next from you. And for this latest installment, I'm pretty torn. I like the exaggerated "bigs and littles" on this one, like the huge feet and itty bitty waist, and I really dig the (...) (21 years ago, 17-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Nice. I like the colors, but then, I'm a crazy man. I'm not feeling the mid-torso or the head. The cockpit just look beaky with that boom for the sensor sticking out. Perhaps if you moved the sensor pack down a couple of bricks. And what funky (...) (21 years ago, 17-May-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
