Really? I once saw a cut-away graphic (1) for Macross which showed the pilot
sitting in the (cramped) cockpit, which filled a good portion of the top half
of the torso. Plus, in the Macross movie, the machine is fairly close to ~
4-5-ish stories tall. The given height of 12 meters (2) confirms this. (My
destroid's head is quite large for the scale, so I'd put the minifig about
halfway into the head, halfway into the torso...)

1. Wonderful art, that Macross stuff. It's never in the local bookstores
anywamore, sadly...
2. From the reference I'm using, anyway...

| (...) Very nice. I'm impressed. But, I wouldn't try rebuilding it for a minifig pilot - it's not big enough, so I think you'd ruin the look deforming it to take one. Don't spoil it. Just my thoughts... JJ. (24 years ago, 21-May-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
