I understand the need to wrap the mechanism to help keep it clean, but why no zippers or Velcro or something? From the perspective of a technician, cover panels should be easily removable for access, especially on a prototype. Cutting off the covering onstage seems... dramatic.

Also, um... why does it have boobs?
