Zowie, Jeff!  I had NO IDEA you'd done something like that. Ugh. I wish he had come to live at my house,

Marta Kristen is still gorgeous!

Yes she is... Marta Kristen looks great.. so does Angela Cartwright.

The B9 builders are also a very detail oriented group. And it can get expensive, as there are folks involved in that hobby that produce or manufacture identical parts, so others may build their own robots. The guy that bought my torso section, arms and waist sections did not buy my leg pieces because they were made of fiberglass and could not bend.

This same guy also bought the 2 tread sections ("feet") but each was made of steel and aluminum, weighing about 50 pounds each. So no one would have been able to move those by human leg/foot power alone. So he rebuild sections that were more light weight and wearer friendly.
