After mod: (3 URLs) The new mecha are better proportioned than the older ones, and they hold together much better. The blue one looks like a gremlin, so I named it appropriately. Enjoy! Chris (20 years ago, 10-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)

With the exception of the tunnel vignette which came in one piece, they all had to be assembled a bit, but not too much. 2. In the (...) (20 years ago, 10-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.vignette, FTX)

Hi Bruce (...) It looks really very good, I think. The only (minor!) thing I think would make a neat addition would be a nod at the ever-increasing number of colours in which minifig parts are available. A 1978 group shot vs. a 2005 one would be (...) (20 years ago, 9-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.minifigs, FTX)

And it's not terribly important to evolution, but how the little stripes are drawn onto the neck-peg for proper face rotation. Hm. Also COULD (...)

The best thing about the Teknomeka instructions for experienced mecha builders is that they offer a base of joint tech that has been made very robust over several generations to support mecha from 2-2.5 feet tall.

Hey Brendan, Great as always. Bethel: In 1:25 I really like the steps going down. Your MOCs usually start on a baseplate and go up, so it's nice to have one with depth.
