I don't know if they were Diaclone or not...I think they may have been spinoffs from the Gi-King (sp?) (...) (21 years ago, 2-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

Unfortunately, I'm pushing the limits of my grey hinge collection, so the next one I build (and there WILL be a next one) will have to be some other color majority. (...)

It would be an accomplishment just to have created either one or the other of the (...) (21 years ago, 1-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

I always wanted that one too! about 1 1/2 months ago I was able to get a blue max sterling robotech reissue-it comes in a 'book' like package & was about $80 at my comic store. it came with a little pilot fig for the cockpit!

The way the cockpit folds, the position of the nose, and in a small way the way the arms fold were influenced by the design of those old Transformers. Like you say, the (...)

If I tried to get that much detail and possability into a transforming jet I think it would end up being 20-wide (just the (...) (21 years ago, 31-May-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha)

I like the bulk of the torso & legs; the arms may be a little thin, but not that bad. on a bit off-Lego-topic is the general observation that all the transformers i've seen here on Lugnet have used major vehicle body parts for mech body parts; (...)
