(...) I was right - I missed the thread. :) They're fairly good, yes, but eh... "it's not LEGO." Thanks for the link. Joel J (23 years ago, 26-Oct-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: Mystery Mech spotted
 
(...) Naw, no interior, but I did think of it except that all the internals are what is holding the arms together. Also, I was keeping the wieght down so that the ball joints held up. (...) Yeah, that was the inspiration, especially with the arm (...) (23 years ago, 26-Oct-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: K'Nex Battlemechs
 
(...) Hey there, Joel! We've discussed this one once before: (URL) bad it's K'Nex....I'd definitely be interested if it wasn't. -Dave (23 years ago, 25-Oct-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

  Mystery Mech spotted
 
There's been an unidentified mech spotted. Take a look and see for yourself; (URL) there's more. You see I haven't come up with a good name yet and so I thought it might be fun to see what LUGNETters come up with. So e-mail me (...) (23 years ago, 25-Oct-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
