| Anyone made any MOCs from the movie Atlantis? The mining vehicles are Rock Raiders meets Adventurers (two of my favorite themes), and the Atlantian ships are Aquazone meets Tunafish (one of my favorite themes and one of least favorite cracker (...)

| For my German/Latin Exploritory class we had to make a Roman Arch or Aquaduct. We (it was a group proj with some friends) decided to make an Aquaduct out of Legos. We had to sacrifice looks for operation, because it had to be able actually carry (...) (23 years ago, 17-Jun-01, to lugnet.build.ancient)

OK, just kidding. @8-) I counted 'em up, and there are 216 minifigs in the stands, including the emperor's box. I could have crowded more in (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jun-01, to lugnet.build.ancient)

I've uploaded a few new pics to the same Brickshelf page: (URL) a few monkeys into the mix, made the polar bear hungrier, put a cat up against a black dragon, and even "flooded" the colosseum for a sea battle. The new pics are: (URL) I (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jun-01, to lugnet.build.ancient)

| Hi, guys. Thanks for the comments. It's much appreciated. George, do you have any special requests for small animal match-ups? I do have Jar-Jar vs. a gladiator with an axe, but I could go smaller. We could have, say, a stick-weilding monkey vs. a (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jun-01, to lugnet.build.ancient)
