(...) Warcraft II? Well, actually it's music from Wing Commander III! Hey folks, it doesn't hurt at all to listen to something else than techno. Really! And it's only a small price to pay for getting a couple of new mechs every month, isn't it? ;) (...) (25 years ago, 1-Oct-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: Warthog Anyone?
 
(...) The new pics are much better. Although it looked bigger without Overkill. Love the gun taken apart. That is too cool...like the mecha is cleaning it or something. Also the feet are well done. I like the technic pieces you used. Build well. (...) (25 years ago, 1-Oct-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.org.us.lugola, lugnet.loc.us.ca.la)
 
  Re: Warthog Anyone?

I really like the cockpit, Dave. The controls are very nicely made, and I like the techy-looking stuff behind the pilot. ~Mark (25 years ago, 30-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.org.us.lugola, lugnet.loc.us.ca.la)

  Re: Warthog Anyone?
 
(...) To answer your questions: 1)Yes, the legs are remarkably solid given how they were made. I'll have close- ups later today. 2)Overkill Pic? Done. 3)It doesn't fit into the tri-war. It is produced by and outside company and won't see any (...) (25 years ago, 29-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.org.us.lugola, lugnet.loc.us.ca.la)
 
  Re: Warthog Anyone?
 
(...) Very cool Dave. I like the legs. They are solid looking. Also that trans orange works well (and is one of my least favorite colors). I'd like to see a full picture with maybe Overkill for comparison. And how does this fit into the "tri-war"? (...)

  Re: Gundam models @ TRU
 
(...) Figures! I had people griping at me almost daily when we couldn't stock them, and now that I'm out of that line of work Gundams (Gunda?) are coming out of the woodwork! Thanks for the info, though. Dave! (25 years ago, 28-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Gundam models @ TRU
 
Hi Dave. The reason all of this has gotten cheaper and more available is the promotion linked to Gundam Wing, which has been showing on Cartoon Network.

  Gundam models @ TRU
 
Not quite on-topic, but I thought it was worth mentioning. My local TRU has a bunch of smallish Gundam model kits for sale @ about $8.00. I know almost nothing about mecha, so I can't give name/style details, but I was surprised to see them at all. (...) (25 years ago, 28-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Great Site. Great Mecha's. (My fav was Clamshell). I must admit I like the choice of music for this site but in general I think that music on web pages can be a pain. Bob (25 years ago, 27-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Is LEGO Mechcommander cool?
 
Yea, I agree too...But the music dosn't work for me anymore anyways. But thats for the better. Background music on webpages is rather annoying and un-nessary IMHO. But AWESOME site! I just love seing your new models... : :Kyle : : (URL) (25 years ago, 27-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
