(...) Well I did, I went back to take another look a couple of times to reflect. 75 bricks is 90 studs, if I'm reading my handy-dandy "Legometer" correcty. It looks at least that big in the photos. It looks to me like a Space Police II lock-up on a (...) (18 years ago, 22-Oct-06, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Well. Your review is a lot better than previous ones. The comment about "could be a bit bigger" is pretty stupid though. And the rating system is as annoying as ever. Overall, 4 out of 10. (18 years ago, 21-Oct-06, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

This is a great mecha bay! Pros: The color is perfect and the two towers are very good. I also like the rails connecting them. Cons: The whole thing could be a bit bigger. Overall , 9 out of 10. (18 years ago, 21-Oct-06, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Hi, Tim. Interesting way of doing the legs of the horsemen. Is that a half-stud offset? And is that the new 1x1 slope piece with no stud as their hips? If so, without the stud, what's keeping the torsos in place? Nice scene. -Brendan (18 years ago, 18-Oct-06, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.build.vignette, FTX)
