(...) Mechastruct is finally filling in. The Gunjin looks like a Zaku and an RX-79 got combined, with the RX's guns and colors, and a zaku chassis and armor style. Every time I look at one of these, it almost makes me want to scrap all my (...) (22 years ago, 16-Dec-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

The transformation is a compromise, and even moreso with lego than with the toys, it makes the robot form suffer, aesthetically speaking. That's no disrespect for the transforming lego mecha that I've seen, they are quite good, and in the case of (...) (22 years ago, 16-Dec-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Whoa. That's cool. I'd say you got the look dead on. Dang. (checking pics out again) Dang.

I really like this trend in mecha. Transformers rock! My suggestions would be perhaps some of the smaller ones that actually transform, like Bumblebee or Brawn. Since you got Prime, maybe Ultra Magnus wouldn't be too hard to make. And why not try (...) (22 years ago, 16-Dec-02, to lugnet.build.mecha)

Hi all. I've posted a preview picture of my 3 finished Transformer figures. You'll recognize Megatron of course, but he's had some refinements since you last saw him, including custom stickers and a black gun. Optimus and Starscream are new, I think (...)

it's interesting how you pointed out the "compact" look. to take it one step further, it's not only compact, but fairly basic in design and appearance. there's very little "fringe" parts, so detail was not a major priority for me. in fact, i tried (...)
