It's very good but it lacks the unification that most of your models have. It doesn't "fit together" quite like they normally do. In addition, Gorm is skinny jointed and doesn't look as fleshed out as he could; granted, that's probably so he can fit in the Galidor pod.
Also the Galidor pod thing seems a tad cheap to me. I bet you could do better if you made your own rather than using a prefab.
Even so it's decent.

Yeah, you were in the poll with ToM. I don't really like this because it is far too overcomplicated, and Gorm looks way out of proportion. The machine is quite interesting. What piece is the pod? Nevermind, but I don't know what Galidor set that's from.

Aegis: Bingo on the pilot. This was my third rebuild of him, I had to keep reducing him in size to fit in the Mecha. He even has two sets of knees to afford him the poseability required to pilot the Mecha. as for lack of unification, The overall scene ties well together (colors,factory floor, parts bins utilizing same parts as the Mecha), the pilot is Gold however, one of the very few times that one of my mocs doesn't completely tie into the color scheme, while most folks don't/can't tie colors in to the same extent.
Don't read: Sorry you don't like this. I know its complicated and hard to understand. My six year old son probably builds mocs more to your liking. I'm sure that all of your mocs are better proportioned than this skinny old Gorm here, right ?

You have nothing to apologize for, bfs. I just see some things on this MOC that just don't make sense (like the tread on the back of the mecha). Some things one these MOC just don't seem possible. But that's why people like your style.

Never.
ANyway,l I think that this moc is Great. I don't generally see some of the expert mocers on here, but i Really have a hard time finding what to say is wrong with these mocs. I generally agreee with Aegis's critiques, but i do think that the back of the mecha is a tad bit complex and to cluttered. Granted, it probably needs all that infrastructure in order to stay together.
WHERE in the world did you get all of those pods??? ebay? or did you do some photoshopping on this?

I should have taken more time in the description and taken more pics, Nate the Great. The tank tracks on the back are the UGV (unmanned ground vehcle) mounted there, it dismounts as does the UAV (umanned air vehicle) to aid the main Mecha in an attack, they work together as a team. I provided links under the photos so that you could see all the pics about that area ei; unmanned vehicles, pilot, main Mecha, Mecha factory.
Fair enough gentle men, was nebulous in providing enough info and background.

HOLY-
BFS, you are, on the scale of awesomeness, deserving of the rating of "GRANDPA F***IN SPACESHUTTLE"
Except that Gormy there looks like he has double-jointed jelly-legs, and that pod is a bit... Off.
AND PLEASE TO TELL ME WHICH TECHNIC SETS HAVE THAT AWESOME PURPLE.
