Hi folks,

during Bricking Bavaria last weekend Goliath dropped backwards onto a window
ledge. It was a complete damage. A lot of the internal frame construction was
torn apart. I decided not to repair it. Today I disassembled what was left and
counted the parts. It were 2259. I hadn’t thought it would be so many.

Oh no! I understand, I know what that is like. During exhibits and shows, I have had plenty of robots get knocked over or have fallen down.

Not so much any more, I try to take precautions
, but it still happens from time to time.

One time my Black Robot fell over and I found a gray technic beam inside it, and I was upset! I could have used that part or swapped it out for another color. It was hidden inside the chest.

   So here is the last picture of Goliath:


I always wonder what the actual part counts are on my models. It is interesting to know the amount on the Goliath. Which was one of my favorite Mecha that you have made!

   A bit sad
Marco

I know you will re-use the parts to make an even better Mech. You are a great builder!
