Welcome to LUGNET!
You have a nice site design that is really easy to navigate...
Your mecha have swell design though try "colour coding" your mecha a little
more, but good overall design, I like the one with the treads. I'm not
anyone to talk as far as giving tips on how to build mecha but oh well. Good
design though...
I like your spaceships too, the shark one is quite nifty...
Same age group, same problem, the money thing is a pain. I just try to make
do with what I got...

| Okiedokie, I might try color coding a bit, but for the most part I myself am fine with it. I'll try to get a full report on the one with treads, Mech #1 Launch Pad, which has actually been slightly upgraded. Do you have a Lego site? I'd be (...) (23 years ago, 19-Jun-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
