Also, if anyone else wants to build one of these and try it out before me, feel free.

Great, I was wanting too. Obviously it is your design, so I wouldn't post anything with it in it, but it will be fun to play around with it just for fun.

You can post whatever you want with it, make full film, anything.  I don't want to keep techniques to myself.  I used a lot of common techniques for hardsuits I borrowed anyway.  A thanks in the video would be okay.

Incidentally, do you plan on using minifigures and robots, or would it be robots only?

I'm open to both possibilities.  I've been thinking about each of them.  Not sure yet, though.  I might even make multiple films with robots using similar designs.  I mainly did this to open up possibilities for whenever I finally thought up an idea that suits it.  Of course, I have no shortage of other ideas right now.

I'd really like to make a BRAWL or THAC film about this robot.  Of course, one isn't supposed to think of that sort of thing beforehand.  Although having a prototype for a character seems reasonable enough.  Perhaps If I can think of in idea that works with the droid and the next theme I could do something.

Whatever it is in, though, I would really like the character to be silent.

I'm a huge robot fan, and I love it!

That is so cool!
It looks as if the elbow joint is quite limited but that doesn't stop it from looking like a masterpiece.
It must be put on Lego Ideas! I'll support it.

I'll make it my wallpaper if you don't mind.

Re: Optimal LEGO Robot Design

Looks great, Squid. I think I'll experiment with your technique myself, just to learn some more about building robots (I could never get them to work mini/tongue).
