I just posted a pic of my new mecha. I'm borrowing a good digital camera Monday so I should have more pictures in a week or so. (URL) McGlone (24 years ago, 28-Oct-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) D.H.B...I like that. The back story for my new mech is similar. The Mech becomes self aware and assimilates the driver (sort of like the Borg). Bryce McGlone (24 years ago, 28-Oct-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

(...) This has got to be one of the weirdest things I have ever seen built with bricks -- but I like it! Why didn't you just chain the scorpians via their handy top pegs though?

I really liked it. I agree that I really liked the gauges, and the headlight. The back side of the front fender was a well selected part. I also like that you don't hide every stude with a smooth tile. I think Lego models need to show their roots. (...) (24 years ago, 28-Oct-00, to lugnet.build)

After the disscussion on scorpion-towed vehicles in .adventurers and off-topic.fun, I built one: (URL) is a hovering chariot, towed by two scorpions, and has place for one passenger (in this case, the Jungle Priestess).

Thanx! About those tyres: the real bike has a much wider rear tyre. The main reason is that the rear tyre looked really out of place in front and vice versa. By the way: see 8417, also uses a different front tyre... There aren't any really good (...) (24 years ago, 28-Oct-00, to lugnet.build)
