(...) There was something that seemed a little off about the upper body in the previous version, and your latest mods fixed it. Now it looks a lot like a Neumann mech (which is a good thing). Maybe I'll try out some worm gears in my next mech. (20 years ago, 8-Aug-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Do the instructions come with just one set skin pattern or is there a selection? I fell in love with the Classic Gundame look and I'd love to be able to recreate it. (20 years ago, 29-Jul-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
