Glad to be of service.
I thought it a shame the model was seemingly skipped (along with a few others) as "Tobor" transferred his site pages to newer domains. Then I remembered how some of the really Aiko 3 items were retrieved from old iterations of now defunct Japanese sites using the WayBack Machine. So, I gave it a shot. Frankly, I'm surprised it worked.
As for accuracy, I'd say it comes within 90 percent, easily. All the elements are there; it's just the proportions that are the slightest bit "off". (And unless you're a pedantic B9 fan like me, you're likely not to notice them.) Compare that to one of the free Robby Robots that, while rigged for Poser, has a "head" so overscaled that it makes the thing look more like a comedic "chibi" figure. Funny enough, I'd rate Murphy's Robby" a 98 or better. He must have worked from that blueprint styled poster StarLog published some 30+ years ago.
Sincerely,
Bill
