Wow Eric thats a fairly substantial sized piece of art, it’s good to see that your still at it, as some of us feared we would never see your high quality MOC’s again when you mentioned you were retiring. Interesting to see your change to humanoid mecha’s as opposed to the more traditional Robotic Cats, that we have enjoyed over the years, its a pity that you never produced a small mecha to be the prey of the Robotic Cats, a small rodent such as a Robotic Gerbil would have been awesome, keep up the great work.


Regards Dave
