Ok, I remember not long ago Lego sent out this little yellow thing with
their s@h
orders about their mission statement or something like that. It said that
Lego is a creative toy, becuase one day, it can be a submarine, the next it
can be castle, and the next it can be a spaceship. Many of the things I have
seen in the last catalog have made that mission statement worthless and
obselete.

This is Lego's true purpose...

Um... well thanks for the very roundabout compliment. :^)

Hehe, I was really mad when I first wrote it. To be honest though, when I think of mechs the first thing I think about is Colossus because the first time I saw it my jaw dropped :-). It's sort of burnt in to memory "Excellent mech=Colossus" -- (...) (24 years ago, 9-Aug-01, to lugnet.build.mecha)
