I know it's not anything spectacular, but it's my first attempt at making
anything mech. I built it for an upcoming BrikWar game as a fast recon mech.

As much as I like the ears, I'm not sure they fit (...) (23 years ago, 29-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.gaming)

Wayne, cool little fella for a mass-produced Brikwars army. But I think there's a few too many colors in there for my tastes. Plus, I'm not a big fan of those dome plate thingies for feet.
