| | | I've just finished uploading the rest of the related pictures to the Scorpion. Once I had the Scorpions built, I decided they needed to have a field delivery system and so the Condor was born: (URL) wings are variable position depending on flight (...)

| | | | | (...) This is really, really good, Joel! The tanks are very visually appealing, and they make a good use of the the artic components. The condor has a good 'swooshable' rating - everything bends and moves depending on the mode that it's in. If there (...) (24 years ago, 17-Mar-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space)

| | | | | | (...) <snipped> (...) Thanks, Trevor. :) The Condor is .fairly. swooshable. It's best to 'swoosh' with the troop module or a Scorpion in the 'bay' as it makes things more sturdy. I've considered trying to make a 'handle' that locked in just as the (...) (24 years ago, 17-Mar-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space)

| | | | | (...) THAT is very nice. Have to say that is a very appealing design, with a good peppering of decorative elements and parts to give it a real world look. Love the group photos showing the infantry and hardware. HISS tanks! Did you know you were (...) (24 years ago, 17-Mar-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space)

| | | | | | (...) <snipped> (...) Thanks, Aaron. It was an intentional thing, yes. :) GI Joe was one of the two rivals to my LEGO collection as a kid. :) I've made GI Joe vehicles before, but these turned out the best of any I've done to date. I think I'll be (...) (24 years ago, 18-Mar-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space)

| | | | | | (...) Yea, and there is another cool thing about your GI Joe theme, you can take the bad outta the Hasbro toys and make theme as they SHOULD be with your LEGO. One that I liked as a toy when I was a kid was that Joe HAVOC battlefield transport. I (...) (24 years ago, 18-Mar-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space)

I don't know as I've set my sights on TGD, but I've certainly been working towards securing my slice of the star system. :) Joel J (24 years ago, 20-Mar-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space)

| | | | | (...) Oh very nice. I like the way the wings can angle (reminds me of the Nazi plane thing from Raiders of the Lost Ark) and I like the li'l gap in the front of the wing that forms an air intake for when your engines are in flight configuration. The (...) (24 years ago, 17-Mar-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space)

| | | | | | (...) Thanks, Mark. :) I knew that the wing design was inspired from someplace. ;) Thanks for jogging my memory. It was indeed the big plane from 'Raiders, now that I think about it. I just knew it looked 'right'. :) The engines were a lot of fun to (...) (24 years ago, 18-Mar-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space)
