  New Mecha
 
(URL) couple of goals with this model: - No SW click-hinges - 4-stud wide torso, that fits a mini-fig and still has a large opening hatch - _Heavy Gear_ element, machin-guns in torso, fuel tanks on back (should be upward and should be "V-engines", (...)

  Re: New Mecha
 
Thanks Rob! Yeah, it is very _Heavy Gear_. Of course, someday I might wanna try making a perfect LEGO Kodiak mecha. I built this mecha in the colours shown, so I'm gonna take some real pics of it too. BTW You won't believe how stiff the joints are, (...) (24 years ago, 5-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)

  Re: New Mecha
 
Impressive as always Mladen. You are starting to amass quite a collection of mecha there. What are you going to do with all these designs? Just an open question, no need to answer. Pat J (...) (24 years ago, 5-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
 
  Re: New Mecha
 
Thanks Pat! Regarding your question, I don't know... Maybe do what Todd Amacher wants to do (am I right Todd A.), which is to put all of his creations pictures into a portfolio and show it to TLG, but I think that chance of me doing that are *very* (...)

  Re: New Mecha
 
Damn, that's pretty sick Mladen (one of my totally strange compliments) Once again you've proven to be the ultimate small-multi-directional lego builder. I really like the colors on this one. But I don't undestand your problem with click-hinges. Ah (...) (24 years ago, 5-Sep-00, to lugnet.build.mecha)
