Yeah, I have this problem w/ my small ones too...they have so much back gear
that they fall over. I usually remedy this by giving the mech extra-big
"heels", to even out the center of gravity. (example being the Angel, seen
here: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=41737 ). Without
that extra studlength on the back, it falls over all the time. BTW, useless
info: with the exception of my "Sproatian" Ogre, the Angel is the only one
of my minimechs that I gave knee articulation to...it works, I guess...you
gotta be delicate with it or the lower legs and the "knee guards" just fall
right off. I spent a good 2 hours fiddling with stuff trying to get
something that would work.
