(...) Ditto Fradel's comment on Zoids. I wonder, if a quadraped mech was actually built, would it work better with a mammal layout (like Rabbit Wrecker) or more of an insect/crustacean layout (like the Iron Mecha entries). I had that winch part at (...) (18 years ago, 29-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Neat mech Eric. Just one thing, don't you think the positioning of the crane and the lights and where cargo ends up is a little, um, suspect? :) No Bob, you get the hot load. No really Fred, I insist, YOU get the hot load. But I get it, the crane is (...) (18 years ago, 27-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

I like animal mecha. They remind me of ZOIDS. I'd like to see this motorized if possible. Maybe incorporate sensors or something for the wench. I think the ears might be to short for a rabbit.

Hey Eric, Very cool. The design of the feet is very interesting - though I'm not sure I understand the combination of jointed legs and wheels. Is this a rollerskating mech? The use of the old tow truck piece as tail is very clever. Bruce (18 years ago, 26-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

I was working on a use for the ATV body piece and came up with a pretty fun mech. Although, after I set it up to take the pictures the sun loosened all the leg joints and it wouldn't pose for me anymore. (URL) Gallery: (URL) Pat Bunn (18 years ago, 24-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Very nice work, Jon. I'm also liking the orange color scheme you've chosen there. Are the dark orange parts from 4884 Wild Hunters? I'm definitely going to have to check out that color.
