Great mech.  I like the face, it reminds me a lot of Optimus Prime.  I have
some of those pieces that you've used for the "mouth" laying around wondering
what to do with them, well now I know.

It still needs a little bit of work (the hips and thighs weren't finished), as
it doesn't stand very well on its own (and the Rocket Pack I made is waaay too
heavy...).  Does anyone have any suggestions on tightening up the hip joints?
It is currently using the tight Throwbots Ball and Socket setup, with two
rubberbands going through it to add more fiction.

Also, Before any Wamalug members do so, I'd like to nominate it for

P.S.  I'm thinking af calling it "Kodotai", built by Shinryuu Industries(1).
Any thoughts?

1 - Anyone know what this means exactly?  It is a monster in Final Fantasy V,
and somehow I got the impression it means "Dragon Lord"...
