Sweet, I dig stuff like that, when you get a chance, (I feel kinda bad saying this but) Could you make the wings swing back with little turntables or somthing? I just thought it would be cool if it did that. Anyway, cool deal. e (22 years ago, 20-Nov-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

(...) However, a device is made up of several objects. Each component, if treated separately, has six degrees of freedom. Thus each component of, for example, the human arm (reduced to an upper arm, lower arm, and hand) has 6 DOF, for a total of 18. (...)

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)

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)
