Thanks Chris! I'm glad you like the bent B-ENT staff, hehe... ;-)

Never thought about using the "metal detector piece thingy-bob" like
that...it's kewl.

He does look kinda back-heavy tho...if bumped a bit from the front, it looks
like it'd fall over.

Yeah, most of my mecha do. They look like this cause I bend the knees, to show
that they do indeed have some articulation. Also the radome and thruster >really make the back seem huge...

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.
