This is a step beyond thumb articulation impairment. The Fly Mech has no thumbs at all. Even the pilot has no thumbs! This is asking for trouble...

When his micro scout batteries run out and he has to thumb a ride, he’s going to raise a hook and wave it around. But nobody will stop, they’ll speed up. “Look Edna, he’s got no thumbs!” “Holy Megazord, don’t stop!” The Robo Force Police will then get a report of a mad mech pilot threatening people with freaky hooks. They’ll Tasar him when he doesn’t comply with their order to “Drop the hooks!” and then they’ll tow the Fly Mech to the mecha impound yard, yes, towed by a crude Robo Force shufflebot, the indignity. Ultimately, to pay the legal bills, the Fly Mech will be sold at auction... to a hungry Spiderbot. The delicate wings that once allowed it to soar will be cast aside as its meaty mech body is devoured. This is what happens when you don’t have proper thumbs. :-)

ps. I like the leg design and color scheme. The overall form seems sort of like a cross between a fly and a scorpion, a florpion.
