| | BrickCommander® 2004 Finale
|
|
Hail MechWarriors! The year is near it's end, so I thought I really should create something special to present as the last BrickCommander model in 2004. Maybe something new from Mechwarrior 4? Something everybody would want to see? Something that (...) (20 years ago, 20-Dec-04, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Yeah you guessed it. Add stuff there and you loose mobility. I think I got an idea though. If I use the minifig back stud adapters, that shouldn't interfere with mobility but may allow me to add some detail. Hmmmm, thanks! I avoided slopes (...)

(...) Thanks Chris. Yeah I got the blues and both grays and blays. (so if you count blay as blue just blues and grays....) Actually this is where the name comes into play. Shades of blue. Shade.

I've finally gotten around to creating a website for BrickMech ((URL) while it's a bit minimalist, the rules are there along with links to galleries of creations and Con photos. The modular specification hasn't really changed, though I tightened up (...) (20 years ago, 20-Dec-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.gaming)

(...) I don't know, I've never been good at mecha. I like the poseability a lot, and the eyes are really clever. Do they actually stay in by themselves? I'd like to see Shade with some accessories, they usually make mecha more exciting to look at (...) (20 years ago, 20-Dec-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) snip I absolutely love the calves and feet. You've got to have clearance for the ankle to pivot side-to-side, but you were able to recess the pivot axis low enough so that the front-back click hinge joint isn't sticking way up. In fact, you (...) (20 years ago, 20-Dec-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) It's funny - those "jet-thingies" are straight from the Robo-Platoon set, and a lot of people seem to like them - good job, Lego! The pneumatic tees are something I used for the wrists of my mecha for years. I'm glad to see that they're (...) (20 years ago, 20-Dec-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Did these sets have the new 1x1 claw plate in red and blue? If not, where did you get those from? LOVE that piece!! The mechas are all fantastic. Excellent proportions and poseability is aces. The booster/wing combo on the blue one is my favorite. (...) (20 years ago, 15-Dec-04, to lugnet.build.mecha)
