Well, I mentioned this one in an aside a while back, and even though I'm
only posting it today, it was really done a few weeks ago, so I can't in all
conscience enter it in the contest.... I guess I'll have to do something else.

Anyway, while I move my site, here 'tis:

It ain't much, really, but for the fact that a Technic fig sits nice and
snug in the torso, with head and serratus and abdominal flaps opening up for
easy egress.

that is all. click.

(...) I like the overall form of this mech a lot. It's very different from anything I've seen before and it definitely has an amphibian feel to it.

(...) Stuart, Don't underestimate this mecha. It has wonderfully clean lines. I haven't seen one this clean in quite some time. And the shoulder design is beautiful! I really like it.
