:)  This is too cool!  You can't do much with it aside form the exoskeleton
configuration ,but there are two technic pin holes on each side that would
make a great knee.  Get two and you have the lower legs to a dock loader
that is at a more true scale.

And, the skeleton head is more freakish in design..they look like the skulls
of some of the alien minifigs we have seen over the last few years!

HAHAHA I said the same thing when it hit the shelf here!  It does look
almost the spitting image of Ripley's Bay Loader.  BTW I don't know about
you but I am thinking of putting some effort into gathering a few of 4790
and/or 4793.  There are some great underwater and mech parts to scalvage off
them and most importantly those skeleton heads are awesome.  Wish they would
bulk sale those heads!
