Thats what I'm thinking. From the darkened picture they have on the
megablocks japan website, I can't see any real special parts... but I'm
wondering how they do the joints. Like, Bionicle was a god send for mecha
modelers, due the wide range of movement on the ball joints.
I may buy one just to see how it works, unless someone out there has a good
guide on building inner frames with bionicle parts and hanging armor off of
them.
