| (...) Sounds like you can't think outside your standard mecha box. You have a style all your own, but heaven forbid you ever step outside. Come on, take the challenge. Heck, build a 12" one for the 3ft one to step on, if it's so dang easy. Aaron (19 years ago, 20-Dec-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.contests)

Depending on how this contest goes, and if the interest remains I was thinking of setting up an (...) (19 years ago, 20-Dec-05, to lugnet.build.mecha)

| Interesting, but in Iron Chef you are given a main ingredient that you must use to make a dish of your own choosing. That would be more akin to specifying a Lego part that must be used prominently, then the rest of the design is up to the (...) (19 years ago, 20-Dec-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

As you stood to the Titan box your ressources were limited too. Well, this box seems to be a good (...) (19 years ago, 20-Dec-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
