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.
Well I allready had planned to disassemble him, but never found the heart to
do it. So this help a lot on that case...

  
   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!
I also wondered about the part count. I had estimated about 2000, considering
the weight of 1769g.

  
   A bit sad
Marco

I know you will re-use the parts to make an even better Mech. You are a great builder!
Thank you! Some of the parts are allready used for a new Mecha. It uses
mostly the new Technic balls with throughgoing axle hole. I’ve no pics yet.
I found the inspiration on the mechahub.

Thanks for your reply
