Since Lenny was kind enough to highlight the little bugger, I guess I should at least post a bit about it: (URL) Click me!>> It's taken me two months of waiting for parts to arrive via Bricklink, but it's finally done - a minifig scale Tachikoma (...)

(...) Hey thanks for the feedback. I was hoping to get some more, though I know it has been kind of busy around here in .mecha. I never realized it but you are right it does look similar to space police I. I am glad you liked it. My only complaint (...) (19 years ago, 4-May-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(URL) "Hatchet Boomerang!" It looks like the Pandemonium Empire has resurfaced and they've learned from their past defeats. And all those spikes collect Omicron rays. You know what that means... This is the most stressed pose I've done with the (...) (19 years ago, 4-May-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX) !

(...) I like 'em! They've got a lot of strength for the size, and the technic holes in the side make snot-ting easier. I just wish they had three axes of rotation, I wouldn't have thought that would be hard to accomplish. (...) They could maybe (...) (19 years ago, 4-May-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) OMG, I'll say. That's cool Tony. Crossposted to .mecha. (I'll update the sidebar too.) That's pretty hip, I'm mostly impressed by the fact you got two levers that'll hold the bot up. More impressed that the levers hold all the weight. Cool. (...) (19 years ago, 4-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Either way, space is more fun! I really like it Lenny, but all the black should be switched with dark gray. Then exchange the light gray with white that you'll buy from stores. Then write a comic about his adventures. ~Kevoh (19 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.build, lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Hey Lenny, I suspect you missed the joke and that, like Mark's post downthread, Steve was mimicking Marvin's version of high praise. That said, you can't imagine how many "but Orthanc doesn't really look like that, because Peter Jackson says so" (...) (19 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Hey wow, that is so cool. I really like the way you built that! The proportions are good and I think the entire Bot looks great. Thanks for sharring! e (19 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

Doooood! Duuuuude, dewww...wwwd. Oh dang sorry for the late reply. Hang on, here it comes: I REALLY LIKE THIS QUAD! Come on! The feet, the canopy, the stocky leg joints, the color, the shooty things, the rear mounted optional missle racks! DANG. I (...) (19 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Wow, I must admit that my first thought was "that's a pretty sweet 'bot that kind of reminds me of Marvin" but to say he looks absolutely nothing like him is stretching things a bit. (...) Ah, but here's where you're wrong, Mr. Poopy-pants. (...) (19 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Well thanks, I guess. He does have Marvin's giant spherical head. And his droopy eyes. I guess that doesn't really count in the "absolutely nothing like him." Maybe I should have added that I didn't have the parts to do him in white (he's not (...) (19 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) (in slightly depressed tone) It's ok, I suppose. I sure that you were tired and overworked when making this rather small figurine. I feel sorry for you. I'd get more excited about it but, just can't quite work up the effort. :) Mark N (19 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Thanks Jason! My lighting is really cheap. Both lamps are $10 or less, and the bulbs are normal sorts of bulbs (less than $5). Tripod isn't anymore than $15, and white paper that size should be easy to get in the $5 range. Less than the (...) (19 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) While I like it (and had to go and investigate the Lowell Sphere which is a rather neat construct), I was a little disappointed it was the new Marvin. Still that leaves room for others to try the old one... Danny (19 years ago, 3-May-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)
