Wow, I've only ever seen the torso and a bit of an arm. Always loved how futuristic this looked - for something that's now over 100 years old, I always felt it looked like a great Sci-Fi robot.
You are not alone in thinking that. As the other comment recognised, this seems to have been an inspiration for both General Grevious and the battledroids in the Star Wars movies.
