I recently embarked on a mini building spree consisting of one dozen microfig scale mecha. The link below shows my first attempt at making a tiny, five brick high mecha look like it could pack some power. (URL) picture reveals the unfortunate moment (...)

Once again, nice work Brad. Thanks for sharing! This is a nice looking model, although I would hesitate mentioning Bauhaus. Walter Gropius had a vision, and I am not sure that what you have built captures his intentions. This is a Great LEGO model, (...)

(I can't believe no one has posted this yet!) The ST has a *blank* yellow head. The TIE pilot has a *blank* BROWN head!!!

Ok I threw this section up although I still don't have a name for it. Any ideas still welcome. Keep in mind that its supposed to be like a bar or diner that all the pilots hang out in.

(...) No, I think it comes down to the weapon sizes. Not many brigs were built, because a brig could not stand against anything larger (with more guns) than itself...therefore, the ships tended to be larger. I think the same ideas were used in Star (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)

I'm guessing the Defiant from DS9. It's a capital ship that might still be manageable at minifig scale. More so than the Big E or Voyager anyway. ~Mark "Muffin Head" Sandlin (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
