  Primus BuS' Marauder (Hey, Primus)
 
I built the Marauder, as you've probably heard, and did my best to 'colorize' it in a grey/dark grey color scheme..... and then used it at the BrikWar event. Man, I'm glad I did that - the Marauder layed waste to 60% of Greg Majewski's army, and (...) (24 years ago, 16-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Lego Measurements?
 
(...) I believe that Minifigures are meant to represent children... as such, they are not too far off scale. The rest of Legoland is scaled to a child's size, much like a play-house. This is why the Anakin figure was the same size as all the others, (...) (24 years ago, 16-Aug-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

(...) Minifigs are perfectly proportionate for a moderately overweight person whose legs have been amputated right below the knees. If you add two 1x1 blocks as 'boots' to the feet then the minifig will approach adult human proportions pretty (...) (24 years ago, 16-Aug-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Lego Measurements?
 
(...) I'd say 1 stud = 1 foot would most appropiate, because a minifig foot is one stud long. If you use that measurement, one metre would be 3.3 studs. Alan (24 years ago, 16-Aug-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

  Re: Lego Measurements?
 
Hi Rob! Lots of debate on this one, mostly 'cuz minifigs are so disproportionate - they're quite wide for their height. Minifigs are 4 bricks + 1 plate tall, without neckwear. That's 4.16 cm. I horizontal measurement, that's 5.2 studs wide. So, here (...) (24 years ago, 16-Aug-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)
 
  Lego Measurements?
 
Hey all, I've been working on a lego tank, but I need to know how much space I have to work with. What is the standard lego measurement, and how long would 30 feet be? Thanks! Rob (24 years ago, 16-Aug-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

  Technic-figure scale guns.
 
Hey guys. I just finished reading the four Appleseed books and have been flipping through my old copy of Ghost in the Shell. I made a Fuchikoma thats about technic figure scale although the figure can't fit in it-- its kind of like the large Gakken (...)

  Re: What is that mysterious green thing?
 
(...) Don't worry Gino, I doubt I'll be fielding this guy in a game of brikwars. He's just too big, and would likely cost way too much in CP. After all, he is something like 15 inches tall (I haven't fully measured him yet, though) about as tall as (...) (24 years ago, 16-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Heck, yeah... it may be Star Wars, but I think it still qualifies as a mecha. Question: Do the joints move? ~Mark (24 years ago, 16-Aug-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
