OUCH! Those colour schemes are crazy, but sweet! And definitely original.
Beautiful models too, very good use of the throwbot parts, nicely done site
as well.

Well, I've finished all the site building I'm doing today, but I needed to point
out a little something for the .mecha folks. Not one, not two, but three
previously unpublished mecha that were supposed to debut at the LUGOLA meeting
on the 4th. Unfortunately, I got ahead of myself and posted them anyway...DOH!

The Zodiac Series-a series of twelve mecha from HardCore Industries detailing
how similar designs can be altered for specific clients. Six of the mecha are
detailed:

Libra-The scaled down, basic version created for desert combat.

Taurus-As beefy as a small mecha can get, this is the latest addition to the M-
Tron Commandos line-up.

Sagittarius-The oddest looking basic model shows just how much weight this
framework can handle. Jungle colors for jungle combat. This is my signature
model.

*NEW* Capricorn-Small, fast, and infused with an obnoxious colorscheme!
http://members.home.net/legomecha/lego/mecha_zodiac_capricorn.html

*NEW* Pisces-THe first model to try out Bionicle framework as the main body-
type. I'm particularly proud of this baby bird's raptorish tail.

*NEW* Aries-My ode to the Rock Raiders. They finally get what they need: a big
bruising drilling machine. More firepower than any other mecha it's size. The
second mecha using the Bionicle framework as the main body. Also makes use of a
Roborider body to hold the engine together.

Cool stuff Dave. Reminds me some what of my early experiments with Throwbot
elements.

Later,

(...) I've been using T-bot joins since they first came out. This is the first time I've tried to use them as the basis for a line of mecha. You raised the bar on me, as a couple of my early attempts look like your Shocktrooper. I love your (...) (23 years ago, 6-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.technic.bionicle)
