• Bionicle parts are permissable
  
• Three pictures per entry
  
• Do only post pictures of your own work
  
• Digital entries are allowed

Oooooh! Great idea, especially since the contest craze has cooled down enough now. I have an idea for my sigfig's mech, it will be my first mech too, but hopefully a cool one!

Are digital inputs allowed? Or do I have to build a mech of real bricks?

Yes, they are, just forgot to mention it in the rules. ;-)

I think you should extend the deadline to give us more time to build.

Sorry, but the deadline is four weeks. :-$ That's plenty of time to build a mech. Zero, I hope you don't mind, I've update the structure of your first post... ;-)

You're welcome. :-)

Excellent!! My perfect contest, this makes me very happy!!!!  X-D  I was about to build MicVash's sig Mech soon anyway!

Just a note, I don't think people should randomly build another person's sig Mech without some permission from that user first.

Oh man! Now I'll feel bad when I blast you with my mech... :-(  :-P

And just to be clear, is this supposed to be a sig-fig's personal mech, or a mech physically resembling a sig-fig?

Excellent point, my friend. I'll add that to the rules. :-)

I just PMed my model to have his permission.

If all is ok, I'll post my mech today or tomorrow morning :-$

Mine is something small and quick. About 1 hour from the idea, to finding all the parts to finish...  :-$

Oh, damn. I was gonna make a mech that looked like a bigger, robotic version of my sig-fig. Kind of like how this little panda is controlling a bigger robot version of a panda. X-D I still will though.
Oh, and don't worry, I won't whack you with my sig-fig mech.

I'll whack you with my other mech. >:-)
~Peace :-P

EDIT: Cool mech Stauder! Original build, nice and simple, cool colour scheme, and I like the legs! Do I sense an interview with Mr Tiber coming up? :-P
