To all Mecha Musings readers, I want to say thank you. It's been a great time writing these articles and I hope you all have enjoyed this rather different point of view. For all of you who are fans, please don't worry. I'm not leaving MAHQ and I have something new planned that will be announced shortly.

For anyone with questions, comments or suggestions for what would've been a Mecha Musings article, we will be rolling as many of these questions as we can into future issues of Mailbag. Again, thank you all for reading! Great things are coming to MAHQ!
