Hey Steve, CO2 is a good idea, but how do you set them off? I've only seen C02 in those little pellet gun-sized cartridges and paintball gun cartridges. That's definitely something to think about as the MegaBloks plate got a bit melted from the (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jun-00, to lugnet.build)

I agree with you Steve. I like most of the mechs I've seen, but I like them much better if the pictures are real and not just computer generated renderings. I realize that creating a cad version of a lego model often takes as much or more effort (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jun-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
