My question is whether it would be beneficial to set up a newsgroup for this
purpose?  Is minifig design qualified to have a newsgroup on it's own, or is
there just not enough of it (or not advanced enough ... on that note - just
how ADVANCED can it get? ;) for that to have a place on it's own.

There is perhaps more scope than you think:
Q. "I want some less-generic pirates - any ideas?"
A. "Use some of the Ninja torso's and Wild West heads, etc etc"

While that example is very generalised by virtue of the fact that I just made
it up, I think a minifig-orientated group would be useful.

Maybe lugnet.build.minifig?

That raises the question though, as to whether lugnet.build services minifig
related issues, and whether the inhabitants of lugnet.build think that it would
be a good idea.

Based soley upon Eric Harshbargers work, lugnet.build.sculpture 'deserves'
creation, but there's no point creating splinter groups if everyone is happy
anyway?

But then if you have seperate groups, it can encourage discussion, so it's not
a clear issue. I'm sending this (and followups) to lugnet.build as that seems
the logical place to discuss this.

I've noticed that even though a lot of people on here build exceptional models out of bricks, quite a few make awesome minifigs as well. While the concept may seem trivial after the person has posted pictures or descriptions of his or her (...) (25 years ago, 30-Oct-99, to lugnet.admin.general)
