Hi Ken, thanks for sharing! I got to agree with Jas, for a first mech, this isn't bad. I'm looking at the supports in the legs and it looks like if you pivot something around that is what makes the legs change position. Am I right? I like how the (...)

(...) Hey Suz, As I've noticed a great deal more activity from you than we've seen lately... I posted about 2 months ago asking for a newsgroup and curatorship for a PennLUG newsgroup. Any chance you could lend a hand on that? Oh, and congrats to (...) (18 years ago, 5-Apr-06, to lugnet.admin.curators, lugnet.build.mecha)

Hey Ken, Nice work for you first attempt at a mech, I really like the level of articulation you have achieved. I take it the leg has the "scissor action" to it as it bends, which makes for a highly posable, and well balanced frame. What sets did you (...) (18 years ago, 5-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Inspired by a lot of the great mechs you guys have done I actually decided to disassemble some of my display models and see if I could build something equally as cool.

Simply stunning Jas. I really like the (URL) photo shoot pic>. Gives a really good feel for size. Mark (18 years ago, 5-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Quite striking. The new gun is superb, and skirt armor definitely helps, although I think it sits a couple studs too high. I still don't know if I like the way the knee armor looks - it almost seems to have collapsed inwards. Is this a trick of the (...) (18 years ago, 5-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

This build has been an ever-evolving process. I thought I'd post a few pictures to get started (and hopefully finished).

(...) I'd also suggest making the backpack a bit smaller, and in dark gray. The top isn't any higher than the top of the chest (excluding the collar) and only covers two thirds or so of the back itself. :) Jeff (18 years ago, 4-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

It is nicely done - great proportion and articulation. I have to comment on the beam saber, assuming you are trying to match the original design: The beam part should be trans-red or trans-orange, and the saber hilt should be the white pieces (...)
