Hi, I just finished off my first Ninja-themed building. It actually ended up being the largest building in my city (at 13 stories). Here is a picture: (URL) is a link to my main web page: (URL) me know what you think! Brad (25 years ago, 27-Apr-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.build, lugnet.town)

Is that price right? $6499? Or should that be, maybe, $64.99...? Just wondering, not criticizing, yah? I don't have a super-car, so I don't count anyhow ;-) -Shiri (25 years ago, 27-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build, lugnet.technic)

(...) Supercar? (...) Hopping up my real car is bad enough. Now i have to tweak my lego ones as well? This could get expensive. I realy like the design. Cale (25 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.build, lugnet.technic)

(...) Amazing stuff! I've built a remarkably similar jeep (in black), but mine is a little bigger and uses lots of curves and tiles for a smoother finish. I guess it's still a work in progress, though, since I've got one big problem: I need a 6-wide (...) (25 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

(...) While attention to scale certainly is important, the appearance is probably even more important. And your models really look realistic!

(...) Unfortunatly, that head has a mustache... :( I'd also need a facial-hairless one to do a minifig portrait of myself. Of course, I'd also need a Qui-Gon hairpiece sans sideburns and with a thinner ponytail. ;) Jeff (25 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

Hey all, I'd like to do a minifig self-portrait one of these days, but I'm in need of a head that has glasses (not sunglasses) but no facial hair. I know that some of the divers heads fit this description, but they have a microphone to get rid of. (...) (25 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

(...) I think the first mod I will make to any LEGO pieces will be to take some minifig legs, and turn them from pants to shorts. Anybody got a good paint-match for LEGO Yellow? Steve (25 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

Cool! Now you need an appearance package: - low profile wheels from the 8848 - the smaller technic shocks (for lowering the ride height) - some ground effects (maybe using some body panels like in the 8448, but in black) - a coffee-can sized muffler (...)

(...) Here I am, already correcting myself. Looking at the dimensions for the real world halftrack (2.10 m wide), it is painfully clear that even the width is too large - so the conclusion is, my halftrack is *about* minifig scale, and (...)

(...) You're right ... I think some smaller wheels would be more accurate in terms of size, but I had made the decision to go with the big old' tires 'cause I thought they looked cool. The overall effect is very similar to the original, but the (...) (25 years ago, 26-Apr-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

I like how your mecha all seem to be very no-nonsense and technical-looking. The ThrowBots parts also add greatly to the poseability.
