| | | | | Hi Marco, Firstly I'd like to say, way to go with that colour! Never would have thought that those two colours would work well on a mech, but they look great. Secondly, I really like how with fairly minimal piece usage, you have still captured a (...) (18 years ago, 3-Mar-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| | | | | | (...) Hello Jas, the lime bricks were around for some time. Never found a good chance to use them. So when I started with Viper those lime, green and blay bricks were the only usefull around. I was surprised myself how it came out. (...) Thank you. (...)

| | | | | (...) love the lime - great colour scheme. I think the 'arms' are too stubby - one like that might have been okay. Apart from that, the shape is nice - simple, in a good way. I would certainly buy this if it were an exo-force model! mo. (18 years ago, 4-Mar-06, to lugnet.build.mecha)

It never will become a set. It's just not playable. It breaks very easily. (...) (18 years ago, 10-Mar-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| | | | | | (...) It was meant to be a compliment! :) It's sad that it breaks easy though. I don't mean this to be a slur on yours (or anyones!) buiding techniques, but I haven't quite got my head round the idea of building models that don't stand up to playing (...)

They just don't ¬ grip as good as the others. Sometimes it helps to try another axle. I (...) (18 years ago, 10-Mar-06, to lugnet.build.mecha)

The weapon joint shouldn't be Bionicle ball-joints. LEGO is only using (...) (18 years ago, 4-Mar-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
