  Re: Steambots
 
You don't know my mother. Thanks for explaining steam as a power source. My favorite steambot is the short legged one. And I like steamrice. JP. (20 years ago, 19-Oct-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Steambots
 
(URL) Steambots aren't powered with fancy-dancy unobtainium power-fusion or uber-posh magic crystals. No. Steambots are powered by STEAM, yeah, thats right, steam as in evaporated water for all you science geeks out there. And when they run out of (...)

  Re: The Wanderer: a Clankbot
 
(...) a very creative mech, lenny. even without reading your post, i knew it had a "western" theme going. nice choice of colors and shapes; they definately give it a gunslinger look. all it needs is a long coat a-la william munny from "unforgiven".

  Re: The Wanderer: a Clankbot
 
Lenny, I actually like the Wanderer better with the weaponry, even though the pics weren't as good. Maybe it's because the shotgun and pistols show off the arm/hand posability a little better. They also add some detail to an otherwise somewhat plain (...) (20 years ago, 17-Oct-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: My newest Mecha: The Judge
 
Frank, I was looking through your Brickshelf Gallery again, and I gotta say that the (URL) "Jugde"> really is one of my favs, of yours. (URL) It really is interesting and the construction is off the hook! e (20 years ago, 14-Oct-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

  The Wanderer: a Clankbot
 
(URL) Some nice pics in the front - older crappy pics in the back. His arms used to have an extra degree of rotational motion, but the heavy forearms had difficulty being supported, so I went with better looking shorter upperarms with better (...)

  Re: "Spartan" medium assault mecha
 
(...) Thanks, Eric. The joints do somewhat allow for larger, more stable mecha creations. However, TLG could expand on the new joint systems potential by designing 3 or 4 more elements- such as a 4x4 plate with a click-pin on the bottom for a torso (...)
