Joint technology is what sets mecha building apart from other styles. Eric does
what he does well. His gearing and joint tech change with each model. If you
don’t notice the changes in how the legs spread apart, or how he incorporates a
new technic piece into a mecha joint, then why bother looking? Sometimes a new
lego part is a reason to build an entirely new mecha, and of course he’s going
to draw from his previous creations.
As for scale, you say it’s off, but in comparison to what? A human being? A
real robot will have different scales to deal with weight and mobility issues.
I remember looking at his Little Blue Bot at Brickswest 2002 and admiring his
use of technic parts for half an hour. That’s where his mecha excel. If you’re
not into that sort of thing, then why post?
