Super-robots' body parts come in so many shapes
and sizes; and many of those parts are asymetoricly
"mirrored" opposite of eachother: like the wings, fangs,
chestplates, horns, and paired body parts such as
the feet and hands.
It does look complicated indeed... when making these
lego-type robots, you also have to consider making parts
that go on the left side and the right side; for example:
Let's say you make the Mazinger-Z chestplates, we know
that the chestplates are two separate pieces, Left and Right,
the left side looks like a Z and the right side looks like a
Z in reverse...
To make them from Legos, you have to cut a chestplate
in precise angles- then cut the other chestplate exactly
the same way but have it face in the opposite direction
for the Reversed Z.
Some parts have to be cut, while others may be grinded
or filed into shape.
If you're skilled in Carpentry working with wood, similar
principles apply here as well. Steady hands and strict
attention to detail is vitally important for making
lego-styled super-robots.
