Dinosaurs are not my cup of tea per se but
I was just dumbfounded by these, especially the steg, with no less than
5 articulation points in the tail!!! wow.

I like 'em all, but my favorite is the dino2.jpg image -- I wouldn't mess

Dinosaurs aren't (normally) my cup of tea either, but lately I've been

Because they're so big all the builder had to do was get the (...) (25 years ago, 7-Feb-00, to lugnet.build, lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.general)
