    4 New Mecha @ Moonbase Io —Andrew Todd Amacher
   After recently aquiring several 2x1 two-hole and 1x1 beam bricks from LEGO S@H, as well as several 1x4 grill mounting plates and 3' friction pins, I've developed a new technique for adding badly needed "studded bulk" to the throwbot limbs in my (...)

   (...) Very, very cool! I especially like Thor's industrial look and the all around coolness of Katipo! One suggestion, though.
