  Re: Is 1:40 minifig scale? (was Project YAMATO)
 
(...) I always accord minifigs 1:35 scale, possibly 1:32, because those are the closest "standard military" scales. But also, I go by the average of the minifigs' dimensions, which sort of implies they are 5' tall and very, very broad. So I am (...)

  Oh, wow. Wowowow. (was: Re: Project YAMATO)
 
(...) Jumpei, That is beautiful. Truly a thing of utter beauty. I am currently planning out a true-minifig-scale model of the battleship Fuso ca. 1944, though I am going closer to 1:35 scale given that minifigs are not truly to human propor- tions. (...)

  Re: MOC 8436: Cranetruck
 
how do you do that? ???...??? With pieces from ONE set? I always run out of pieces or need another one of that piece (etc.). Yours look like they all belong there. Lego would have sold a lot more sets if this was the model I think. Steve (21 years ago, 28-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.technic, FTX)
 
  Re: MOC 8436: Cranetruck
 
(...) Oh wow... Great model, and great photography! I'm totally amazed at people who can build in Technic, and it's even more impressive that you only used parts from 8436! Looks like an official model. Instructions? :) -Bryan (21 years ago, 28-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.technic, FTX)
 
  Re: MOC 8436: Cranetruck
 
(...) You really have quite a wide range of talent. Not only do you do good sports cars, but you have done robots, boats, people, trucks- all out of Lego kits. Maybe now you can start building construction vehicles. I assume you did not use a winch (...) (21 years ago, 28-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.technic, FTX)
 
  Re: Is 1:40 minifig scale? (was Project YAMATO)
 
(...) I personally advocate 1 stud to the foot, which is about 1:38. If the stud size is exactly 8mm then it's 1:38.1. If a stud size is 5/16" then it's 1:38.4. There's little difference between the two, unless you build something 14630 plates high (...) (21 years ago, 28-Jan-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.build.military, FTX)
 
  Re: An alternative open letter to the CEO of the LEGO Company
 
(...) Well here's *my understanding* of it. TLG changed the colours because the old grays and brown did not fit in with their "vision" of the colour palette. They tested the new colours with groups of children, and the kids liked it. After changing (...) (21 years ago, 28-Jan-05, to lugnet.color, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Hello everybody
 
Hello everybody, I'm new here. This is my first post. I started building Mecha about 9 month ago and the 22nd is the first that goes to public. It's named Primech because it's the first one that actually got a name. (2 URLs) The arms are inspired by (...) (21 years ago, 28-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
