It's not as if I do not like LEGO-mechs... I do like them! Most of the Mechs
done with LEGO are wonderful works of art, and I often look at them in
search for ideas. Trust me, I have learned a lot about new uses for odd
parts only by looking at Mechs (sporadically, on Brickshelf).
The thing is... I do not understand the "Mech concept" in itself. For me it
is quite weird to grasp the idea of having a "humanoid" robot acting as a
war machine - why using such a complex engineering, when mere "boxy-like"
tanks could carry the same amount of firepower? Plus, the mere sight of Mech
movement (running, jumping, etc.) strikes me as absurd: all those stomps
would destroy any such craft!
So Eric, I will be glad to take your offer: please introduce me to the
Mystery of Mecha. I'd love to learn what makes so many people happy, if
nothing else for the sake of it.

| Dinner is almost ready, I just wanted to chime in and say I respect your differences in opinion. Of course my thoughts simply reflect a perfect world that I would like to live in and we all are human. So, with that I will say thank you for posting (...)
