I like it, nice and simple. It also has a good look that most people wouldn't aim to make with Lego, but it still works really well and looks really nice.

I like any powered armor / hardsuit that can actually fit a minifig. Go minifig, go!

One problem is that the actual construction is mainly briks, not joints.

No problem with that. If it looks nice no reason to throw ugly joints in there.

Yah, but I wanted the minifig to fit inside, and if I added joints, the armor would be to big for my liking.

ya, i agree with that. its a really good design, but maybe you could put on a cockpit window so the charging power-armor man doesn't get a headshot.
