Not at all! As Eric put it, some of us have been too busy this past week or so
to post anything whatsoever, so here goes (with the 2.5 minutes I can spare
right now...)

Head: great look to it! I'd love a closeup and side view so as to see the
details, but I like what I see so far.

Arms: My favorite part by far! The dino/elephant/sea creature body parts look
fantastic here as beefy forearms. I think you've touched on a use for these no
one else has worked with yet.

Torso: good colors, but the detail is tough to make out.

Legs: Second favorite part for the same reason: dino body parts. The use of the
droid body as a hip joint is quite interesting as well. Not quite sure it works
on a model this large, but I still like it.

Aftermath: I'm printing out a copy of Optimus Primal to post on my 'wall of
ideas'. Perhaps it will push me to use dino bodies in new ways, perhaps not.
Either way, it's still something cool to look at.

(...) You flatter me. Thanx a lot this is exactly the feedback i needed. I was really interested in what is thought of the dinosaur body parts I used if they looked weird or worked. Hope you like my Rhinox and Megatron creations I'll be posting soon (...) (21 years ago, 5-Sep-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
