Daaaang Mark! That is freaking awesome! The poses of the Mecha were great! A few questions: How are the 'wings' of the mecha attached? How is the mecha attached to the ship? I see some sort of hinging something that goes around the legs, but how (...) (23 years ago, 18-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

(...) Thanks. :^) (...) There are a couple of ball-joints back there. (...) The Mecha is attached to the ship with a technic friction peg that plugs into the hole you can see on its back. The hinging is just to hold the legs up, and the arms in (...) (23 years ago, 18-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

(...) Great Job, Mark! The mecha is very nice. I like the entire design. The wings on the knees threw me at first, but I grew to like them. The wings on the back are a nice touch. Glad to see you hopping into the ball socket groove with the rest of (...) (23 years ago, 18-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

Mark Do you have some close up photos of the door/ladder? I can't quite tell how you have the door open and recess. What keeps it from falling out completely?
