  Blade Runner Police Spinner
 
(URL) still need to finish the inside of this and polish up parts of the exterior. Note that this isn't *really* a spinner, as it doesn't have wheels. I kind of think of it as a new type that doesn't need them. Also, instead of 2 doors and 2 seats (...) (21 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.build, lugnet.space) !

(...) I would say that it is close enough to bear the name I really like the canopy, but I though that the Slave One canopy piece was only avaliable as one piece, in which model is it split in two like that? Nice work, I always like to see bonicle (...) (21 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)

  Re: Blade Runner Police Spinner
 
(...) Good work on the shape! The curved canopies work really well. And the back of the Spinner is nicely detailed. You might have made the one man spinner:) Regardless, great work. Question, tho: how did you attach the plates in the back...the 1x3 (...) (21 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)

  Re: Blade Runner Police Spinner
 
Blade Runner is one of my top 5 of all time. Definately top 3 of scifi. This is an excellent variation of the design Jon. I'm consistantly amazed how you smoosh the Bionicle parts in such a way that they don't look as if they are thrown on as an (...) (21 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)

(...) It's a great start -- a nice minimalist interpretation. I really like the shape you created for the cockpit. I didn't realize the new curved pieces would blend that well with the oddball LoM windshields. (21 years ago, 18-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)
