(...) Although I find that Dan Rubin's involvment taints everything and leaves a greasy residue, this MOC rises above. I declare this the official transforming, pop-up-death-tank of KeithLUG. Excellent work as always Mark. Where are my pancakes? (...) (19 years ago, 26-Oct-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

  Re: MTM-168
 
(...) Mmm... Nothing like a variable tank-mecha to start off the week. Mark, this rules! You totally nailed the concept. I seriously hope you explore it even further and perhaps at a larger scale. Some minor suggestions: The tan-blue colour scheme (...) (19 years ago, 25-Oct-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) Hey nice! dig that use of the #2. Treds! lot's of treds! Bendy! It's bendy! (...) I really like the construction of the upper half of the Tank/Mech all the tan with those slopes, well, it looks really cool. The blue and tan work nice. (...) I (...)

  MTM-168
 
This is the MTM-168 (Mobile Tank Mecha) (URL) I'll be happy to answer questions, it's a cool tank mecha. Can switch from Tank to mecha. Big heavy hatch on front and the treads roll. Lots of credit to give; the Double ball joint system (al-la E. (...) (19 years ago, 25-Oct-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX) !!

  Re: Vampire Bat
 
(...) Damn you.... Organic my arse... Just finished the Brickjournal article on yourself. I've always loved "the rack", it is always one of the first models I show people when I explain that lego is just not only square houses and rectangular cars. (...)

  Brickshelf Find: Mecha Italiano
 
Heads up mechaheads! While perusing through the 'shelf I noticed some work by a fellow named Legoabomba. After seeing so much work from Japanese and North American builders, its nice to see some talent from the "old country". (URL) (19 years ago, 21-Oct-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)  
 
  Re: Vampire Bat
 
(...) <snip> (...) I'm glad this model is being so well recieved. I honestly didn't think too much of it. I guess for me to think a model is good it has to take me to the edge of insanity. As this one only took about 4 hours to make and I was making (...) (19 years ago, 20-Oct-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Vampire Bat

  Re: Vampire Bat
 
(...) <snip> (...) Thanks. For years I've thought those stupid useless ninja and/or Ewok wings could make good wings; I could never figure out how to join them. Then for some reason I thought of essentially making a rectangle out of two. In (...) (19 years ago, 20-Oct-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  The Mantis Man
 
I recently fell in love with Mike's BrickFa armature. It's so simple, yet so complex. That armature you can see (URL) HERE>. So anyway, I felt the need to build a version of my own... a more... castley version. And how more castley can you get than (...)
