Thanks Rob! Yeah, it is very _Heavy Gear_. Of course, someday I might wanna try
making a perfect LEGO Kodiak mecha.

I built this mecha in the colours shown, so I'm gonna take some real pics of it
too. BTW You won't believe how stiff the joints are, even though I didn't use
SW click-hinges, I'm pretty proud of that.

Mladen Pejic, over an dout!

A couple of goals with this model:

- No SW click-hinges
- 4-stud wide torso, that fits a mini-fig and still has a large opening hatch
- _Heavy Gear_ element, machin-guns in torso, fuel tanks on back (should be
upward and should be "V-engines", treads on feet, the hatch...

Also the mini-gun was inspired by Karim Nassar's "Panther" and Mark Sandlin's
"DoomRaven".

Mladen Pejic, over and out!

Wow!  Captures the Heavy Gear elements nicely :-)
