I've only found 2 of these in my inventory and I have no idea where I got them from. Can anyone tell me what set/s they came in? I have plenty of white and black. -Kyle kpeterson@newave.net (24 years ago, 16-Sep-00, to lugnet.build)

(...) I've typically used a 2x2 turntable plate (<part:3679> and <part:3680>) stiffened with a semi-thick piece of paper between the two halves. The trick is to get the paper just thick enough; your typical college-ruled school paper is too thin, (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.build)

Eric, Mark: yes I knew about Diaclone for most of the Autobots (and Microman, I believe it was called, for the majority of the 1st wave of Decepticons). That's actually partly the reason for why I insisted that minifigs fit into all my Transformers (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.build)

Well, if you're going to be so persistent on the praise, I guess I'll have to drop the modest :) But all joking aside, thanks again. As for the hatch, the original mecha was built around the hatch. I think I was curious as to how I could use that (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Thanks. It's gone through some additional modifications, but I'm not sure these are permanent. Regardless, I'm pleased with the overall look of the model. However, I think my model pales in view of the awesome designs that have been showing up. (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Your stuff is really fantastic! Its good to see some other folks creating buildings instead of some sort of plane, car or similar transport. What did you use for the clear pieces in the "Blue Spire?"

Nice additions Travis! I think I like this mecha even more than the first time I saw it on your website and slowly went through the .DAT file. I think your mecha has one of the coolest torso's I've ever seen; I just love the hatch and the lights and (...) (24 years ago, 14-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

This started off as my Soldier design with feet added. I then added stuff to the torso, which led to changes to the legs. I keep making changes to it, which I suppose is a the drawback and advantage to having the model actually in your hands. Once (...) (24 years ago, 14-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

The old pirate sets had a lot of the palm tree pieces. Unfortunatly, you can't get those any more. I managed to get a bunch of this stuff by trading with neighborhood children that felt themselves to be too "old' for LEGO. Make friends with the (...) (24 years ago, 13-Sep-00, to lugnet.build)
