(...) That is spectacular!! I think(and I maybe wrong), but I think that's the largest mecha I've seen built in real bricks. I just love the size of it.

Well, heck, I think we should all thank Colin Gutierrez for the finger design. I got the idea from him. :^) You gotta buy something like one of the Arctic sets to get those li'l snake-things. Then just pull them apart to the desired length and you (...) (24 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

WOW! Without a doubt this is one of the best mecha I have ever seen, Mark. Simply fantastic! The legs are IMO the best, best Gundam legs I have ever, ever seen. Your use of parts is extraordinary. The weapons are beautiful as well, and I love the (...) (24 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Gosh, thanks Mladen. Really, I just combined the look of two of my favorite Gundams: Tallgeese and DoubleX. I was trying to capture the knee-look of Tallgeese, but I wasn't quite able to do it because I don't have enough white plates. :^/ I (...) (24 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Well an awesome model deserves an awesome reponse, IMHO! ;-) When I said nice colour sceme, I meant it was excellent how you followed the real Gundam colour sceme. Plus, I'm amazed when anyone makes something out of so much white, since I could (...) (24 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

I like Heavy Gear, because it has very utilitarian designs, like real military vehicles and mecha will look like in the "near future". Of course, the same can be said for Gundam, but they are more like what military vehicles and mecha will look like (...) (24 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Ummm... No internal weapons you say: How about lasers in the eyes. Also, don't a lot of them have hidden missiles, because the anime there sure are a lot of missiles flying. BTW don't nearly all Gundam and related mecha (Zaku) in the anime have (...) (24 years ago, 30-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

I've never noticed any lasers in the eyes, but maybe it's an episode I just haven't seen yet. Most Gundams have guns on the sides of their heads, tho. ~M (24 years ago, 30-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
