First thing I thought of when I saw the picture (besides the lack of pink of course

)was how complex the design was but nonetheless how unique and impressive it is. I'd ask questions but I've decided to put them off until I get to see it in person. That robot is probably the robot I am most excited to see close up.
I think it's great that your mentor made a Lamassu connection; its such a great comparison. Can't wait to see it this weekend in action, the best of luck!
