  StarWars Ep. II MECHA from lego!
 
Hello all- Just saw this pic, and was totally thrilled! Lego is releasing the AT-TF from Ep. II! Although it is probably gonna cost an arm and a leg, it is definately a step up from bioicle 'mecha' they have previously done. (URL) (22 years ago, 20-Nov-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Awesome job! It'd be even better if it could transform, but still.... I will try to do a transformer soon, they are to cool to pass up, and I have 45 beast wars figs. Yeah, I liked something other than lego for a while. ;) Ryan (URL) (22 years ago, 20-Nov-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  New Mech!
 
Hello all- I recently cannibalized my Slave 1, Republic Gunship, and both of my Jedi Starfighters, thus enabling me to complete a couple new mechs. The Stinger Land/Air-Mecha (LAM) is one of them. With the capability to transform into an aerospace (...) (22 years ago, 20-Nov-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Pedant's corner: This reminds me of an argument I've had several times, and to be honest have yet to come to a definitive answer. The maximum number of degrees of freedom an object can have in three dimensional space is six; translation in the (...)

  Re: New MOC: Ravage G1 Transfomer URL
 
well done, anne! i remember having ravage as part of my transformers collection (way back when). it was one of my favorites. if i am to understand correctly, you modeled him after the cartoon and not necessarily after the toy. it looks just like (...)

  Re: TransAmerica Building
 
Wow! Pretty amazing entry as a first step into posting here. You know that your next announcement has to be even bigger, right? :) Just kidding. The building is really nice. Things at that scale are always awe-inspiring. I like the little flag on (...) (22 years ago, 20-Nov-02, to lugnet.build)
 
  Re: articulation points?
 
thanks for taking the time to answer my question. if i calculated correctly (assuming that i count each joint only once per semetrical side , i.e., one shoulder joint, one hip joint, etc.) my model has about 20 poa and 40 dof. this is how i figure (...)

Hmmm...Ravage. I always did like that Transformer. Great job on this. It's too bad you couldn't make it transformable. (...) (22 years ago, 20-Nov-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  New MOC: Ravage G1 Transfomer
 
It seems like a good idea to jump on the bandwagon :) I made a G1 Ravage. Ravage is one of my favourites, and I figured he would be fun to do. I made sure he can articulate, just like the toy :), so the articulation is in the legs. :) This is my (...) (22 years ago, 19-Nov-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Actually, Galidor is currently 50% off from S@H in the US (I don't know about elsewhere) and I think I've seen competitive prices at at least one retailer. Now would be the time for people to (...)

  Re: Lame Parts II - Let the building begin.
 
(...) Question time- #3 Football. Would this be the same item we Americans refer to as a soccer ball? I only ask 'cause I've never seen a Lego football. #4 Either of Nick Bluetooth's legs- Just Nick? or can we use some other Galidor fig? I'm not (...)

  Re: articulation points?
 
Hello, I would define a POA as a point when mobility occurs whereas the rotattion is counted once. That is to say if a Shoulder joint spins forwards and back it counts as one POA and should not be counted as two. Example: In this picture of the (...)
