As I posted in another message, I think 2002 is going to be a good year for
Mecha.

I think it will be.  I've seen everyone's talent shoot through the roof this
past year.

Very nice site.  Thank you for the photo tips.  I've been experimenting and
trying to learn, not doing so great...  Anyway, this will help, thanks!

Thanks, I'll be doing another update soon.  A lot more photo tips with
specific examples as that is what people seem to need information on the most.

A couple of things: it's a sin in the business world to advertise a product
as available and not have it on the shelf or easily findable.  I couldn't
find in your brickbay store where to get the models, or how much they cost.
And once I hit brickbay and got distracted by your store, it was over.  I
got interested in other things and went on with my search in new directions.
I'd advise putting info on the site itself.  You'd run much less a chance of
your customers wandering off.
I saw your wanting everything to be perfect.  I can understand that.  Maybe
you should take pre-orders instead?  (This will also give you a better idea
what your production run should be.)

I totally agree with you.  I've been commiting many sins lately it seems.
I'll have to make some changes so there is no confusion.  But to make a long
story short I haven't posted any information(availablity, price) on the sets
because there are just a lot of variables right now.  But the people that do
want it have emailed me so I haven't had a problem.

I'd change those names if I were you.  Everyone is going to know what they
are.   Especially the lawers of the trademark owners.  The fans will
understand, really.  I'd do it now.

I addressed this in my post to Brian, but yeah, I'm safe for now but I might
just do as you suggest to avoid any and all possible conflict.

On the models themselves.
Very nice.  Sort of plain for my tastes.  But that can be also be called
clean.  A worthy style.  (also good when making sets for sale...)  The
transforming of your mecha must have been tricky to work out.  I'd be
interested in seeing detail of that.
I particuarily like the foundary itself.  How big is it exactly?

Thanks, the foundry is only two large grey baseplates wide.  I might be
redoing one for brickfest that is 3 baseplates wide.  We'll see.
