Ha! I like it! Lots of character...not a mecha in the Japanese anime sense, but very cool as a robot with soul. more impressive than the mini - mecha lego is coming out with in their new sets... Later, Chris (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

Well, I'm nearing the end of my blitz of new MOCs. This is one of my favorites. I don't have enough pieces to build a really good large mech, so I stay small. I was inspired by another mech I saw on brickshelf, but I can't find it at the moment. (...) (22 years ago, 7-Apr-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

Hello again, I've been frustrated with "builder's block" the past few weeks. Sometimes the pieces just won't come together. So this weekend I worked from an already established framework. I built an extended Jedi Starfighter frame and came up with (...) (22 years ago, 7-Apr-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.announce.moc)

The remaining three pics show how it appeared in the front window of the (...)

| | Re: Question Regarding Ball Joints
|

Personally I think they suck. The range of motion is very limited and if you exceed that limit, the two halves of the ball pull apart and joint breaks. POP! End of story. You could remedy this by adhering the two halves together with glue but then (...) (22 years ago, 6-Apr-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) I just ordered some from bricklink. I had the same idea but unfortunately I don't think they work well as joints. They could have made the ball joints better if they made it a full ball instead of half. Hope this helps. (22 years ago, 6-Apr-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Just wondering, How strong are the new ball joints in the Geonosian Fighter and AT-TE? I'm (slowly) building a mecha and debating with myself whether to buy some for leg joints. The mecha will be a quadped (sp?). I've heard the joints are fairly (...) (22 years ago, 6-Apr-03, to lugnet.build.mecha)
