    I always get a huge kick out of seeing scratch build projects once they are primed, totally transformed into a professional looking model and no longer looks like random pieces of junk stuck together. Awesome video as always!

    what impresses me the most most of the time about robot models is getting the joints right! takes alot of thought to make a real working joint, and if its a good replica of it, makes the model heaps better.

It still made the fart noises for little while and laugh so hard as the dog broke it apart. It was the funniest memories and the dog was fine. He just had to much fun and I also laughed the afternoon. It is funny seeing a dog rip a stuffed animal that makes fart noises. Anyway happy holidays and I just hope you got what you wished for this Christmas.
