Well thanks Jeremiah, but your 4 legged SpiderTank is way cooler than all my
multi-legged mecha! ;-)

And who cares about the Tyco piece; if I have it, I would use it! ;-) And I
really, really like the colour sceme of the ZOOT Suit; it's cool!

BTW I really can't wait to see your model of the Coleopteran, that thing is
just awesome, mind if I try? Kidding, but I do like it because of, what appears
to be, it's small scale, and you know I love making my mecha as small I can get
them.

Good luck!

Mladen Pejic, over and out!
