SNIP Very nice use of pieces for the head-very detailed. i like that you put the droid in a small diorama too; it nicely sets up 'why' the arms ar extended, besides just (...)

| (...) This is looking very cool now. (...) The vehicle looks good in both modes! Well done. I was going to say nice authentic PCS look too, but I'm not sure what qualifications are required to say that... (...) Ahh... nice helmet-and-binoculars (...)

| (...) Ahh. Even better now. A great choice to make the dorsal fin double sides so all the studs aren't all on one side. I think this is my fave so far. (...) This is wonderful Joe. The best surprise was using the next feature on Brickshelf, leaving (...) (21 years ago, 25-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) (URL) Folder> (...) Joe, the lion fish is great and so is the star tours bot, but the PCS Mecha... too cool. Nice greebs, cool look. The smaller quarter domes together as a canopy is the coolest PCS canopy! Oh that Lego would make more o' dem. (...) (21 years ago, 25-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Thanks! I found some wedge parts that I didn't expect to find. (...) I really didn't expect to build this one, as I was building a ship. The idea of landing gear became legs as I continued to build...they just looked right:) (...) There are (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Thanks! Your suggestion to make the top fin like the siide fins I originally was not too keen on, mainly because I was thinking of doing only one plate and all the spines from that, which meant that the studs would be seen on one side. I (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Thanks! I was surprised at how the model worked itself out in its final form. The top fin worked out much better than I expected, but I originally was going to array the spines under their opposite neighbor, so you only would have seen half as (...)

| (...) Joe, This edition makes an excellent ship superior. ;) As Gil said: (...) I totally agree. I see the sphenoid could not be rounded out but I think the other new parts help shroud it's boxyness; plus, the repetitious grill texture in that area (...)

| (...) Thanks! You're right about the canopy, and I just ran out of those pieces :( As for the greebs, I tend to think of myself as a feeble greebler:) But ths ship was mostly fun. The legs are very cantankerous, so if you breathe on it the wrong (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) You and JHK had a pretty valid point about the lack of roundness, so I did he best I could on the neck (which is a marked improvement) and found wedge parts for the body. The great side result was that I was able to put a plate on the bottome (...) (21 years ago, 26-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.space, FTX)
