New mech called Angel,

A teaser in case the folder isn't moderated yet, though BS has been
remarkably fast!  Who do we thank for that?

This here is a police mech I call Angel.  Lithe and fast to respond to
emergencies quickly.  Also, heavy dudy anti grav units and wings, hence the
Anglel monkier.  I know the pics are a little hit or miss lately, chalk that
up to experience.  They'll get better, I promise, no really, I mean it.  Oy.

Also of note here is that Angel is using the new leg construction with some
variables.
Technic axles in place of technic beams.  Thinner look, just as strong.
The ankle has a itty bit of swing because it's not securely anchored to the
technic plate, but it's not going anywhere because the socket piece is
pretty wedged in there.

Also worth noting; Angel is about as much weight as the poor ball sockets
can take, you don't want to know how many times I've rebuilt Angel.

(...) Cool! You are the king of reverse joint legs!! Thin and agile looking. I just was wondering...from what set did you get those engine pods from? I don't recognize them. Jeff (22 years ago, 17-Mar-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Check out the Snow Leopard Clan making quasi-upright looking Mecha! Yay, folding wings. Does that thing give speeding tickets? e (URL) (22 years ago, 18-Mar-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
