Model Description : This is a mecha from the Japanese anime,
Bubblegum Crisis. In Episode 5, "Moonlight
Rambler," Daley Wong describes:
"The stolen 'D.D.' packs some impressive
firepower ... Don't underestimate it,
Leon. The D.D. is a new type [of]
battlemover, equipped with the 'J-1'
auto-control system. It's highly
intelligent, and may have more firepower
than our K-12 A.T. ... J-1 is a
completely unmatched automated combat
system ... which activates if the pilot's
heart rate drops below a certain level.
If J-1 runs out of power once it
activates, then Boom! It self-destructs
... using a micro-neutron bomb!"
Other Info : Bringing you tomorrow's PPM today -- in other
words, it has a lot of polygons.

Anime Fans : I'm only a casual otaku, with very limited
exposure to anime, beyond what's shown on
my local PBS channel, and what my friend
lends me. So to all serious otakus, which
are the best-looking mecha robots in the style
of Gundam ZZ and Macross? I'm referring to the
mechanical type, not the bionic/organic type
-- and with big guns and missiles. My
favorites are the D.D. and Power Dolls -- are
there others like them?

If you've read this far, you might as well check out the jpeg picture

was just a new skin job for Dan Bickell's Han Solo model -- obviously,
the skin is for my private use only.
