Now that I think of it, you have a good point there.  In my pure space days
there was nothing in the world that could have convinced me that a Gundam
could
take down a Star Destroyer for example, and there is nothing now that can
convince me that a Gundam can not take down a Star Destroyer.

See to me that sounds like, well this tank can take out that
battleship/aircraft carrier.  Granted there are a handful of extremely unlikely
situations where that could happen.  But certainly not in normal combat
situations.  I wonder, in your Star Destroyer example, are you taking into
consideration that a Star Destroyers has its full complement of ground forces
(which include mechs) and fighters?  Or are you suggesting just one on one.
One on one is one of those unlikely situations that would work against the Star
Destroyer.

Oh well.  As far
as sliding legs are concerned, I will always hold my position that investing
some time and pieces to build a more realistic frame is a good choice.

Well for a cool looking mech(a) that is highly poseable (and good for stop
motion) I agree with that.  However for something you can "walk" across the
table and play with, I prefer the "slidies" :-)

Have fun building more mocks, regardless of their type :)
