 | | Fleebnorks and Sea Monkeys and Turbocycles Oh My! —Adrian Drake
|
| | | Catching up with one of my Brickswest inspirations, and grabbing onto the coat tails of a couple of new fads/interstellar species, I created three new turbocycles for my Turbocycle League. Snag them all from one location at the bottom of this page: (...) (21 years ago, 24-Feb-03, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.space, lugnet.aquazone)
