No need to apologize.
80% my design? No way! More like 20%, most of the stuff seems pretty original
(except for the rail gun).

Leg suspension, smart. I never did this in my design because it would ruin the
colour scheme and make the leg connections even more complicated. You seem to
have succeeded though! ;-)

Still a good try! I'm sure that if you "beef-up" the legs and the "thorax" the
mecha will look even better.
