James+burgandy, you have posted SO many of these threads saying "post your thing-a-ma-jig here, and I'll do it later," and we have yet to see any of your thing-a-ma-jigs. Remember your capital ship contest that took place around Manly Santa Day and your capital ship that you had built for that? We have yet to see it.

Let's take bets on whether or not j+b will actually post a mech.

That's not a mech; it's legs.
Often, literally, a pillow fight but may include similar situations like volleyball, particularly when wardrobe is skimpy and the action is bouncy.

You also said you were building a mech, but it turns out you were just building mech legs.

You said you were building a mech. Clearly you were only building mech legs.

I don't see anything funny in that picture. Unless you meant those legs, which need work.

Side note: Would the singular be "mech" and the plural be "mecha," or are "mechs" and "mecha" two different things? Can you have one "mecha?"

Singular is mech, plural is mechs or mecha.

I think those stats only apply to non-Mexicans.

I have to agree with this, even if he didn't "finish" the Mech he technically said he was building it so....

and yes the legs of a Mech do count in the construction of a full Mech even if it isn't done yet.

nice pose

I can't speak for anyone else here, but I for one would be perfectly satisfied if you just stuck a chair and a steering wheel right on top of what you have in that picture. A minifig with giant mech legs would still have a huge tactical advantage and would look hilarious.

Kicking, stomping, and dancing around a battlefield atop a pair of gigantic legs while still staying out of the enemy's weapon range would be priceless.
