 | | StarWars Ep. II MECHA from lego!
|
|
Hello all- Just saw this pic, and was totally thrilled! Lego is releasing the AT-TF from Ep. II! Although it is probably gonna cost an arm and a leg, it is definately a step up from bioicle 'mecha' they have previously done. (URL) (22 years ago, 20-Nov-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) Awesome job! It'd be even better if it could transform, but still.... I will try to do a transformer soon, they are to cool to pass up, and I have 45 beast wars figs. Yeah, I liked something other than lego for a while. ;) Ryan (URL) (22 years ago, 20-Nov-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Hello all- I recently cannibalized my Slave 1, Republic Gunship, and both of my Jedi Starfighters, thus enabling me to complete a couple new mechs. The Stinger Land/Air-Mecha (LAM) is one of them. With the capability to transform into an aerospace (...) (22 years ago, 20-Nov-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

well done, anne! i remember having ravage as part of my transformers collection (way back when). it was one of my favorites. if i am to understand correctly, you modeled him after the cartoon and not necessarily after the toy. it looks just like (...)

thanks for taking the time to answer my question. if i calculated correctly (assuming that i count each joint only once per semetrical side , i.e., one shoulder joint, one hip joint, etc.) my model has about 20 poa and 40 dof. this is how i figure (...)

It seems like a good idea to jump on the bandwagon :) I made a G1 Ravage. Ravage is one of my favourites, and I figured he would be fun to do. I made sure he can articulate, just like the toy :), so the articulation is in the legs. :) This is my (...) (22 years ago, 19-Nov-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Hello, I would define a POA as a point when mobility occurs whereas the rotattion is counted once. That is to say if a Shoulder joint spins forwards and back it counts as one POA and should not be counted as two. Example: In this picture of the (...) (22 years ago, 19-Nov-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)
