Hello mecha friends. I have not seen anyone from build.mecha
(forgive me if someone did and I missed it) talk about the new
theme. I am digging a lot of the parts used but I am not sure
about the minifigs and the design. I am not pro or against it yet
so I would like to hear what my fello mecha builders think
I am picking up one for Christmas so I should be able to give more
of an opinion.
Lets take it to off-topic.
Regards,
David.

(...) Errrr...I'd say any support from lego for mecha is good! The model out of the bunch that I like the best is the transformable white flight type. Those wings would be handy for building something like a Murasame from Gundam Seed Destiny. The (...) (18 years ago, 24-Dec-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)

(Impressions based on photos found at: (URL) - I couldn't get the Flash on LEGO.com to work properly) I'm on the negative side on this one. The models (in my opinion) are not that good - essentially a skeleton with some weapons added, and a lot of (...) (18 years ago, 27-Dec-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

Hello, David- This is a great topic on which I'd love to hear what the Mecha HOFers think, but this isn't appropriate for OT.debate. OT.debate is for topics other than LEGO-- such as politics, name-calling, and of course, the existence of God:-) It (...) (18 years ago, 28-Dec-05, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)

(...) Hi John. Thanks for the suggestions. I will take it back to build.mecha. And, oh yeah, John is a conservative poopie-head. LOL (18 years ago, 29-Dec-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Having found some of these sets already in my local Toymaster store I'd like to comment on a couple of points raised. (...) Actually there are no printed pieces in any of the sets I've bought (7700, 7702, 7708 and 7711). It's all done with stickers. (...) (18 years ago, 29-Dec-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)

snippage throughout (...) I just ordered mine through S/H. So I'll probably get them sometime next week. Germans are usually late with LEGO? That seems so, wrong. (...) Which is the one really huge selling point for me. I think that this first run (...) (18 years ago, 29-Dec-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(Posting to both .mecha and .debate now, since the post contains the L-word, but it's actually more of a .debate topic... follow-up as you see fit) Another thing I wanted to comment on in my previous reply, but forgot to include because I was busy (...)

(...) I agree 100% with you Tobias. I am greatly disappointed that LEGO is caving in and selling toys that resemble modern weaponry. Some will think that I am a hypocrite for saying that, as I myself build nothing but military-themed creations. (...) (18 years ago, 30-Dec-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
