Hey EvilMage!

full of detail, have you tried to hold anything with the hand yet, like a
pop can or something?

Yes, I spent quite a bit of time picking up things testing thge capabilities.
The coolest thing I did was pick up a Technic Fig and pass it from one hand
to the other and place it down again. I picked up battery boxes and other
odd stuff. I tried to get it to pick up an empty Bionicle canister, but it
was too slippery. I may need to add a couple more rubberbands to help get a
better grip.

Also, since I am (or was) at the design stage, I kept the Arms bare of any
detail so I could evaluate the preformance. Now that I am confident that the
arms work, I can pile some cool details on it.

the finished product, as i said, will be montrouly huge, a massive
undertaking for even you eric, the bluideer of the big, the master maker of
mecha, the...er...sultan of stack...yeah, sultan of stack, i like that one.
hahahahahhaha

Sultan of Stack!!!! hahahahahahahaha

Beleive me I'm concerned about how big this this is gonna be.
Trouble is if it gets to big I may end up making just a scuplture, problem
with that is that I promised someone I'd intergrate a side Kick out in the
hips. I fear the wieght be drive me to the sculpture aspect and not include
alot of Leg functionality. But.... I have been thinking of making a six
legged structure like the RG Mech so that the Jamocklaquat will actually
walk on a Tripod and be functional from head to toe.

anyway, i would love to let the world see my greatest creation to date, ,
but lack of founds, and time, make it difficult for me to even snap a teaser
pic with a webcam. the gods just have it in for me i guess...
any, grerat job on the shoulder dude, that musta taken a pretty penny to get
all those blue parts, even ove the internet!
keep up the good work, and post back soon with anything neww that comes up


Sears for 10 bucks a month? Maybe you could swing one, I really want to see
the stuff you come up with. If you can't take pictures, I'd be interested in
hearing some descriptions of your Mecha.

Hey, BTW, I always appreciate getting replies from you, where do you live
abouts?


Take care,

Legomaster

My best creation, so far, is based on a lot of other stuff i have seen around. the ankles a ball joints and the feet are Armored Core meets Robotech kind of a thing, the legs are roughly copied (when i say roughly, i mean look nothing alike) from (...)
