Wow, that's quite a model. Here are my thoughts:
The legs are simply great. I like the feet the most. The knees are cool too.
Well done.
The lower, round, protruding part of the torso is very original. You really
have a talent for making any type of torso design work. That jump jets are good
as well.
The weapons, hands, and head are nicely done too.
Now, as for the shoulders and the two torso "humps", I think they need to be
pushed down. Right now, they are too far up, and make the mecha seem weird,
IMHO. Maybe making the shoulders just a stud wider would make the mecha better
too?
I really think that if you redid those parts, this mecha would be stellar,
instead of just cool. j/k :-D
That's really my only complaint. I really like your use of colour on this
mecha. You also seem to have mastered the studless look too. ;-)
