One builder whom everyone should be familiar with is Zizy. Hes been building mecha and posting them online since sometime in 2003 as near as I can tell. As far as I know, hes never officially built anything for Mechaton. He has been copied extensively by other builders though. Hell, even Soren Roberts has copied his work. In fact I think its one of the rights of passage for the Mechaton/MFZ community; copy a mecha just by looking at a photograph, build a Zizy Frame, etc. Of course people like Kashiwa and Omnipotent might be taking it a little far.
Zizy has so many different pictures in his Brickshelf gallery, which is here, that you can get lost in there for hours. One of his most prolific builds is the AF Frame. The best view of which can be seen here.
Heres a couple of my favorites built off of that frame.
He also has a "proto" frame, seen here.
Which looks like this when additional parts are added.
Of course he switches things up again with the Vertical Machine frame.
Here it is with armor and weapons.
I dont think its unreasonable to call him the Michaelangelo of the microscale mecha community. Go. See. Copy. Learn.
