HAHAHA! Awesome! Cute lil' guy too. Now you just need the Designer Set T-Rex chomping on one or two of these. :D "The goat? He's going to eat the goat?" "Excellent!" -Stefan- (19 years ago, 24-Jul-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.castle, FTX)
 
  Alternate MOC files with a challenge
 
Hi! The last couple of years I have tried to inspire many people to build there own alternate MOCs. Although I've seen quite a lot of these cool models there are still many people only asking for instructions or CAD files. Before I am going to work (...)

  Re: T.A.U.
