Very cool indeed!  I like all of the pics.  I think you're right, Agiel is the
first mecha of that size to kneel.

I love the red halo of magic you gave it in your pics.  I think, like so many
of your other mecha, this one must be experienced IRL.  I still can't get over
the clean feel of the armor magnetically snapping perfectly in place - very
innovative and cool.  And, like all of your other mecha, the sucker is pretty
solid!  I still have a chuckle about you just handing it to me in the truck to
transport to legoland; the thing barely fit in the truck, must weigh at least
fifteen to twenty pounds, and had tentacles all over its back stabbing me all
of the way to Legoland!  Good thing it was a short trip.  The the darned thin
was solid!

I DEFINITELY like the arms extended out - a pose I didn't get to see often at
BricksWest.  I don't know how I feel about Cankerworm's head in that one
piture, though :-(  I think you like decapitating your mecha too much... ;-)

Anyway, excellent work, as usual!

Later, Chris

I've posted pictures of my new mecha on Brickshelf. (URL) a quick run down for those who are curious. Some armor attaches via magnets. The whole mecha can kneel (I think it's a first for a model this size) Stands about 32" Fiber optics in the chest (...) (23 years ago, 2-Mar-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
