Hey y'all,

Check out my new mechs I premired at Brickswest.

They're Called Guardian Armors.  I'm going for an old-school name and design
feel (Mazinger Z,  Gaiking, Raideen etc). Anyway I was originally had a
story for these things but when I started writing, it came out all cheesy so
I'll spare you the punishment and just cut to the chase.

Guardian Armored Gouka (Hellfire)

Guardian Armored Sansai (Storm)

More Guardian Armors to come!  One in each flavor!!

Please if you have any comments or critiques please feel free to fire away!!

Jeff

Those are amazing!! You really have a knack for using bionicle parts and creating beautiful mecha!! The Gouka has that brute force, I'm gonna beat you with my fists, look. The Sansai on the other hand is just plain awesome!! The shoulders from (...) (23 years ago, 21-Feb-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Hey cool. You've brought Bionicle building up to a new art form. Excellent. ~M (23 years ago, 22-Feb-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
  Re: Guardian Armors
 
This stuff rocks! You've taken the bionicle and taken it to another level entirely. Is there even one "normal" brick on them? If these are all Technic brick I do believe you have created the smoothest possible look in the genre. BTW, I particuarily (...) (23 years ago, 22-Feb-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
