Bob,

That's really good work - extremely close to the 'real' one I bought from
just a catalogue image.  Good use of Technic and pneumatic pieces to make it
move - I want to do the same but alter the the legs somehow to make it walk.
It's a big job, no doubt.  You could probably use the turntable gear like
the ones in the 8480 Space Shuttle or 8462 Tow Truck to rotate the head...

Thanks for the good ideas...

Chris
