   Wow, Eric. At this rate, we’ll have to name a moonbase plat after you. Sophie Mecha Tracts, or how about Eric’s Mecha Park Add. Wouldn’t that be a cool legal? Yeah, I live at Lot 21, Sophie’s WhoopAss Mech Farm Add. But I digress.

Maybe we can get the folks at LEGOland to entertain the idea. I’ll work to install a FAN MOC display at the Park. -with bells on-

   Great job as always. I love the color, I felt blinded at first but in a good way. I thought the lighting could use some work. I see overheads and spots down low, but shouldn’t there be spots pointing up? How about mid-range spots for workers?

That was just the sunlight comming through the window and the diffuse light of the local snowstorm. No real attempt to light it. Actually I think they are sub par, but I just wanted you all to see it, maybe later mo’ betta pics and an artsy main pic.

   Shouldn’t there be a gardener bot tending the yard?

Hey not a bad idea. Dang. I coulda/shoulda done that.

   The Straps are a neat touch. Made me think how one might incorporate Lego watchbands into a MOC. There’s an interesting thought eh?

To me its all about the straps and the green. FYI - the Bionicle watches have a ball joint glued from the factory to a short axle. Good for building Mech frames.

   I like the green organinc thing going with the criss/cross of the structure. Lends itself to the very concept of Mecha. The blending of organic and mechanical thing.

That was a suggestion from Mladen. He mentioned to me (when I asked) that incorporating more of the ground in to the structure was something he would like to see more of, ie.. Mount SciBrick - Mech Bay 05. I’m not sure if I pulled it off, but then again, I did what I could with what I had.

   Wait a minute LINK is there a pile of brick there in the back? Isn’t some minifig supposed to scoop that up? eeeeeewwwwww.

Mecha Poopy Scoop Support Vehicle. Rock Raiders brown asteroid balls. *Note to self, make poopy scoop bot or vehicle.

Those promo bricks are a special printing that were gifts from TLC. My pleasure to use them and put the brand name out for all to see.

   Great job E.

Thanks Snow Daddy!
