| Neat 'bot! Slick use of all the articulation pieces. -Stefan- (20 years ago, 1-Feb-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Leonard, How cool is this? I'm really digging how it's compact, yet has a lot of articulation. Also, I'm a sucker for 'stud-less' MOC's. My only question is with the hands... how's the posability with those type of fingers? I've been meaning (...) (20 years ago, 2-Feb-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Leonard, I had already replied to this... but it seems to have not gone thru?!? Anyhow, I just wanted to give you a "big up" on this tiny mech. I like how even though it's small, it's pretty articulate. I'm also a big fan of not showing studs (...) (20 years ago, 2-Feb-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

The cranium and the hands are really, really well done Crackhead, but those shoulders....those are a little rough my friend. Lenny has left the building. (...)

| Hey Lenny. I dig the personality. I really admire how you get a face with really nothing there. I mean is, I see a mouth at where the head meets the body, and I see a lot of personality there with not so many parts. This bot has got the tall and (...)

| (...) Thanks for the comments! Studlessness is a double edged sword - sometimes covering the studs gives a model an added finished look. Sometimes, it looks dumb. But thanks for telling me that I did it well! (...) Not very well at all. Most mech (...) (20 years ago, 3-Feb-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Ummm... Ahem... I think I used that finger idea first: First Incarnation: (URL) "Wolf" - March 19, 2002> Final Sleek Design: (URL) "Sentinel" - July 6, 2003> I thought Mark's DEEPFRAH webpage cited me as the inspiration, but I guess it was (...)

| (...) Truly that was innovative. But this isn't about you. It's about Lenny citing his inspiration. (...) Again, very innovative! IIRC, Mark did cite you as a source here on Lugnet. You've been credited. Propers have been given already. Have a seat (...) (20 years ago, 4-Feb-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Well I was merely pointing out the true source. I don't want people to forget the true source. If Lenny wants to give a brief history of the idea, he should include me in it. To you this might seem silly, but to me it's very important. I'm (...) (20 years ago, 5-Feb-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Oddly enough, I didn't want to give a brief history of the idea. I did want to give two examples that inspired me directly - both of which addressed the issue I was talking about: the usefulness of that fingertech in holding stuff. I'm sorry (...)
