  Re: Herakles: A Endoskeleton type thingie
 
(...) Yeah, they're probably just not used to seeing the Metru head without a Kanohi. I personally think the fierce look is very appropriate for the bulk of Herakles. (...) Interesting - I guess it was the background that was deceiving my eyes. (...) (20 years ago, 16-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Herakles: A Endoskeleton type thingie
 
(...) Hey Kelly, Not many of the kids like the "naked" Metru head. Oh well. As for the silver pieces, the shoulders, chest, and feet are made from a mysterious grey with a greenish tinge. And there aren't any lilac pieces from the Jango set. Just (...) (20 years ago, 16-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Herakles: A Endoskeleton type thingie
 
(...) Thanks Chris! Yeah those hands are good, but they only work for larger scale stuff. I wish there was another part other than guns and minifig hands that we bioniclers could use for fingers. Hey Chris, do you still have the same e-mail (...) (20 years ago, 16-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Herakles: A Endoskeleton type thingie
 
(...) Hey waitaminute...!!! (...) Yeah the side view of the head looks pretty silly. I tried to add more greeblage in there but it became ugly. More is less. Yeah. (...) Thanks brother Mark. Maybe I'll make a Terminator-type gun on steroids for him (...) (20 years ago, 16-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Herakles: A Endoskeleton type thingie
 
(...) Smack! Smack! Smack! Smack! It's a beaut Jeff. Big and beefy, just like you. It's got the musclebound idot look, just like.... I can't speak much more than what the others said, the hands are primo. The one piece head nestles in there nicely. (...) (20 years ago, 15-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Herakles: A Endoskeleton type thingie
 
(...) Just say no to steroids... This is another fine example of Ranjo Bionicle engineering. The hands rule - maybe the best Bionicle hands I've seen yet. The hoses also give a very mechanorganic feel to the model. If Lego made Bionicle sets like (...) (20 years ago, 15-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Herakles: A Endoskeleton type thingie
 
(...) Thanks Allister! Those parts come in the new Toa Hordika sets. The bummer though is that there is only one per!! Yikes! It's basically the head piece. The mask attaches to it. Jeff (20 years ago, 15-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Ball Joint Frame ZRX1 version
 
The double ball joints are very cleaver and the level of articulation is impressive. I had spent some time messing with the things awhile back and gave up due to lack of stiffness -- clearly you solved that problem. Brent (20 years ago, 15-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Herakles: A Endoskeleton type thingie
 
(...) Solid, as always. Love the use of the Toa Metru head piece as just... a head. Very menacing. Hope it's not in any contest I'm part of, or I just lost! Great use of the Pakari as chest pieces, too. Are those silver? Hard to tell with the (...) (20 years ago, 15-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Herakles: A Endoskeleton type thingie
 
(...) Very nicely sculpted. What piece are the fingers made of? I never new that part existed, but now I've seen it I NEED to get some. By golly they'll be useful. Cheers, Allister (20 years ago, 15-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Herakles: A Endoskeleton type thingie
 
If the hulk was a terminator... (URL) for a contest that is currently going on. Hands! It has hands!! Look! (URL) also has alot of articulation but had to lock down the knees for dynamic posing and to bear the weight. My favorite part is the back. I (...) (20 years ago, 14-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: One eyed, one horned, flyin' PPE...
 
(...) Thanks for the cross post. It didn't quites seem "mecha-ish" to me initially. Get Well! (20 years ago, 14-Mar-05, to lugnet.org.us.sealug, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Request to move .mecha
 
We (the curators of .mecha, Mark Neumann and Eric Sophie) have been talking for a while amongst ourselves about moving .mecha to a location that makes it easier to find mecha related stuff on Lugnet. I am formally requesting that .mecha be moved (...) (20 years ago, 14-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.suggestions, lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)  
 
  Re: One eyed, one horned, flyin' PPE...
 
SNIPPED You sicken me. I never thought that anything more weird than the MPP or Soren's Belville fig of death could ever crop up, but it seems I've been proved wrong. This is like a Barney that has some funny mutation thing going. Gross. In other (...) (20 years ago, 14-Mar-05, to lugnet.org.us.sealug, lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Just some cool stuff
 
(...) Just a quick note to point out the Robot on display: (URL) Mech @ l.i.t.m.>> I still have to get some photos of the Clear Baseplate Waterbug Hotel sign. Will do. Eric Sophie (URL) Biomechanical Bricks> (20 years ago, 14-Mar-05, to lugnet.people, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Ball Joint Frame ZRX1 version
 
(...) No, thank you Marcus. I always wanted to build a (solely) ball jointed Mecha, but never did because I knew the scale of the frame had to be carefully done in order to work within the physical limits of the ball joints. Your dual ball jointed (...) (20 years ago, 14-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Ball Joint Frame ZRX1 version
 
(...) It was Bryce's fault! I'm telling you! lol, just kidding. I think we remebered back to an early model that used some stiffening techniques. I absouletly know that your newer and later models do not use such techniques. Your still the Mac (...) (20 years ago, 14-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: Ball Joint Frame ZRX1 version
 
(...) This is a wonderful thing to see! The ZXRX1 Frame is an upgraded version of the frame that I had been working on for over a year now. The first attempt failed badly and I wanted to correct. So after some thought I made the MC7 frame that (...) (20 years ago, 14-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
 
  Re: More microstuff
 
(...) Thanks. I think the bley works, if you don't need too much of it. Later, Chris (...) (20 years ago, 14-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: More microstuff
 
(...) Thanks! I like tinkering with this scale, because I think there is a lot of potential for Lego to come up better mini-mecha sets that are much better than what they have now. Later, Chris (20 years ago, 14-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
