  Re: Preview pics of my new mecha
 
Well I was going to do what I've done with my other mecha designs. And that is design a couple of different weapon systems for it and show off all the sub parts. I have already designed the alt. weapon package, it is a miisile array and single (...) (24 years ago, 25-Mar-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: Preview pics of my new mecha
 
Minifig scale is what I had in mind, because that way it will fit into my current line of mecha. Though it could easily be considered a microfig tank. In minifig form it would be a troop support light mecha. Remote operated or just autonomous. (...) (24 years ago, 25-Mar-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: New Carrier - Starship Gibraltar
 
(...) Thanks! Actually, the ship only needed 2 arctic base sets (bought on sale of course--wise man say don't pay full price for LEGO). Each set has 6 grey window-walls, so my ship has 12. Also, I needed 2 sets of the mobile arctic base, but used 6 (...) (24 years ago, 25-Mar-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.starwars)

  Re: New Carrier - Starship Gibraltar
 
(...) Wow, that thing is HUGE. I love the galley, very slick. Lots of neat details! How many arctic sets did you part out for the exterior windowwalls? (24 years ago, 25-Mar-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.starwars)

  New Carrier - Starship Gibraltar
 
Hello, everyone! I just posted a few pictures of my new space carrier, still under construction. (URL) you can see, the only finished interiors are the bridge, galley, and torpedo room.

  Re: Preview pics of my new mecha
 
(...) Oooh. I like. Especialy the 4+ legs! Is it Micro or minifig size? If it's minifig it makes a great ultra-light mech. Good job! Rick (24 years ago, 25-Mar-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Preview pics of my new mecha
 
There are six legs that can each rotate out a full 180 degrees. Each lower leg swings along a click hinge. I picture it being some sort of small troop support mecha that is operated by remote. It won't be completely finshed until I can replace the (...) (24 years ago, 25-Mar-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
