                        He looks great! And along the same lines, it's high time someone came out with a good injection-molded Chariot!

                        Thanks for all the input!!! As far as the scale I really don't know, I don't think it is mentioed on the box. Overall it was a good build but I should have cleaned up some of the seams better for the metal finish (testor's metalizer). The longest part of the build was sanding the mold lines off the tracks!!! Starship Modeler has some great articles on this kit which I used for references.

                        Speaking of new versions of our favorite robots, isn't there a "Forbidden Planet" remake in the works?

                        Thanks for the side angle, Balta1!

                        Very nice Balta1! I think having the newer robot from the 1990's movie "Lost In Space" side by side would look pretty cool.

                        here's the another angle. I will be working on the robbie once I finish the other 3 projects I'm working on:
                        Polar Lights Mach 5
                        Tamiya 300ZX
                        Monogram #20 Home Depot stock car
                        TIA

                        I say you picked a good one to finish.

                        Nice Robot, Balta1!
                        How about a pic from a different angle? Those are good pix, but aside from a change in lighting angles, almost identical!
                        Now you need a Robby as a Robotoid for a good "War of the Robots" punch-up!

                        After making a promise to my wife that I will indeed finish at least one model this year! Here it is.
