Especially you K, you have more than enough pieces to create a 6 foot Gundam
with opening armor/wings, huge guns, and you could probably make it strong and

Most of you who will be reading this have plenty of Lego parts and the skills

simply determined by minifig scale and my attention span.
But as origami mecha demonstrate, it really doesn't matter how large
a model is. It's the imagination that goes into the construction that makes
it enjoyable.
