 | | Re: Tanks or Power Armor
|
| (...) I think so. Since a tank (I'm talking about real life MBTs, not hovertanks) is firmly situated on the ground, it is a more stable firing platform. Also, even if powersuits are eventually developed, I doubt that they will be able to carry the (...) (20 years ago, 24-Aug-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, FTX)
| | | | | Re: Tanks or Power Armor
|
| (...) I think tanks will still remain useful as siege weapons, spearheading assaults, and general heavy battle. Power armor might be very useful for surgical strikes, and urban warfare. But in an open field, or over long distance, I think tanks will (...) (20 years ago, 24-Aug-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

| Hello everyone. I was checking out (URL) Ryan Wood's Jade Empire Hong Hovertank post> and he mentions that we have seen little in ground combat vehicles other than (URL) power suit>. That got me thinking, when you have Power Suits available, should (...) (20 years ago, 24-Aug-04, to lugnet.off-topic.geek, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, FTX)

|
| Hi All, I know it's still 2 months out, but does anybody know if there is going to be a Halloween MOCkery contest (or equivalent) this year? James? Fingers are crossed on this end ... there's been something brewing for several months here! Thanks, (...) (20 years ago, 24-Aug-04, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.general)

|
| Thanks Eric, I was just about to delurk, honest! My name is Adam, and I've been building Lego mecha for years. I love the challenge. At the urging of Eric and others, I've been slowly starting to get more involved in the online community. As you can (...) (20 years ago, 24-Aug-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
| | | | | Re: Adam Silcott's ALM-011

This is one of the best mecha I have seen taking into consideration that not a lot of detail is (...) (20 years ago, 24-Aug-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
| | | | | Re: Definition of "micro"
|
| (...) I hope minifig scale isn't quite 1:60. If my math is not way out of whack, I think that would mean that a minifig represents a 'real' person that's about seven and a half feet tall. :) I think, depending on who you talk to, minifig scale is (...)

|
| (...) Ok, that good. :) (...) Thanks! I wish I could, the size was based on the Kill Bill movie picture I found with google and it was small so I had to shrink the Belville Fig. :( And with a bigger picture one could more easily se my bad editing of (...)

| | | | | Re: B.I. Joe Skyhawk
|
| This isn't my favorite BIJoe model, but it's stil pretty cool. Neat decals as usual. Every little bit of playability you fit into your mocs is, I'm sure, the result of minutes/hours of tinkering with bricks. The engine swivel is pretty neat, in fact (...)

| (...) That's lovely, really. Lovely in its own right; I'm still not convinced by the canopy geometry, though (can anyone every fully be, given how unique the original is?). The color scheme is dead perfect, though. I'd love to see you tackle the (...) (20 years ago, 24-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)

| | | | | Definition of "micro"
|
| "Micro" has two conflicting meanings: figures and size of model. Confusing! Thinking further from Ashley Glennon's talk at BrickFest DC 2004... All models built to accomodate minifigs have a consistent scale (the minifigs can move between them); and (...) (20 years ago, 24-Aug-04, to lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)

| Join me in telling Adam Silcott how cool his ALM-011 Lego Mecha is! If you attended Brick Fest 04, and you had a chance to see the Mecha and Bionicle Room, you saw a relative new commer. These Mechs are strong, sturdy and very poseable. Super cool (...) (20 years ago, 23-Aug-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

| (...) Oh, definitely. When I was a kid, all of my G.I. Joes were space heroes! And Cobra, space invaders. This belongs in .space for sure. By the way, this is the best. This model instantly at first glance conforms with the original. And since it is (...) (20 years ago, 23-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)
