I was debating about what to use for the mouthpiece; I was going to use the other traingle piece (the one that compliments the 2x1 w/ three faces), but I think this one worked out better. After all of my complaining about making heads, (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jun-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| | | | | The articulation...is...um... ...AMAZING! All I have to say is dang. How the heck did you get it to pose like that? Does it stand in those last 2 poses well, or does it fall if you touch the ground 2 feet away? Niiiiice work! (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jun-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| | | | | Looks great!! the articulation is really sweet, I can't believe the way that thing stands on one foot like that.

| | | | (...) Well, actually, I named it after a small, near Earth asteroid, which in turn was named after one of the gods of love. I guess Phobos or Deimos would have been more appropriate - those names are reserved for more colorful, meaner looking mechs. (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jun-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
