It's interesting to see your progression as time has gone on...

I remember seeing your first two gundams in the "Cool Lego Site of the Week"
and thinging "those are absolutely perfect!"  It would have been difficult to
believe that you could have refined the designs as much as you have.  The feet
are really impressive, how you matched the slopes to make a more solid red

Wow - only fifteen worm gears?  I would have thought that there were more
(especially after having seen your joint tech section).

I'm curious, have your gundams been increasing in the range of articulation as
time has progressed?  I remember you mentioning that for your first two mecha,
the arms, etc. only moved so far out; have you been able to improve on that?
Any chance we can get some action poses?

Well, I'll be a little sad to see the new gundams end, but I'm very much
looking forward to seeing what new themes (and stories) you have in store for
us.  Will you build at the same scale?

Later, Chris
