Hi, im building the handy board and i wonder if you know some substitute for the IS1U60 infrared demodulator. Thanks a lot for you help. Sincerely yours Eduardo Gonzalez Ramirez (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
 
  Re: Sith Infiltrator
 
(...) I think everyone realizes the scale and detail limitations of LEGO. A lot of accurate details would make for sets that contain a lot of special pieces that have limited use and increase price, vide infra. If a Millenium Falcon were done on (...) (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.starwars)

  Robolab
 
FYI. The Gerald Ford School Lego Lab and Robotics Center has begun using the Dacta Robolab Amusement Park set. I'm impressed with the quality of the software. It is more stable and apparently more powerful than the stuff that comes with the (...) (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.loc.us.ca.cva)
 
  Re: NQC 1.3 released - Command Center?
 
(...) [snip] (...) DOH! Yup. I've gotten quite fond of the RCXCC/NQC combination. It handles just about anything that I have thought up so far! DLC (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: Why are people buying Starwars Lego off ebay?
 
Regarding X-Wings and Snowspeeders, I just saw quite a few of these (especially the Snowspeeder) around Colorado Springs, Colorado. Too bad I don't have the extra $$ right now, otherwise I'd finally buy the X-Wing and another Snowspeeder. Hey Eric (...) (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Minifigs...
 
(...) Well, I think a couple of additional System sets from Episode 1 would be sufficient (not sure what they could be since I haven't seen the movie...), but I'd rather see LEGO focus on the classic trilogy a bit more since we only have five sets (...)

(...) Yes, yes, no, apparently not, and sure. Steve (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Minifigs...
 
(...) I'd rather not see too many minifigs. LEGO isn't an action figure toy. Having said that, I'm still waiting for Han Solo, Princess/Senator Leia Organa, C3P0 and Chewbacca. And Queen Amidala is an obvious missing factor from the EP1 sets. (...) (...) (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Making accurate Y-Wing engines
 
(...) Would you really need two layers? I don't have any macaroni bricks handy, but from what I remember (and from LDraw), you should be able to replace the second-to-last 4x4 cylinder brick with 4 macaroni bricks, and then put the final 4x4 (...) (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Rock Raiders --Wider is not better.
 
I actually did pick up the smallest sets as well and I'd agree. The 4910 is a standard little set. I think it is because they couldn't fit any Jr. into a set that small. But with the strange shaped base and the roof pieces, it is the most non-blocky (...) (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: To Sell or To Auction
 
(...) I think most people base it on how much time they want to invest, vs. the return they want to achieve. Straight sales are quick, but if you don't know how much the items are worth, you will either quickly sell everything too cheaply, or not (...) (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.market.theory)

  Re: size of Lego MF revisited
 
(...) Thanks for the info! I did a quick check of my B-Wing, and guess what? It is about 45 studs long, fitting the scale! It is 4 meters longer than an X-Wing, which comes to about 11 studs. When I built it, I wasn't even trying to scale it (...) (26 years ago, 14-May-99, to lugnet.starwars)
