Thanks for the kind words.  I'm glad you like it.  I remember you mentioned
you were interested in transformers at the last GardenSLUG meeting.

You know this post also got me thinking about what might be the baddest
Transformer since Unicron... *muahhahahahha*  Maybe a GardenSLUG build
challenge??

I think it would be awesome if a bunch of folks (in our club and/or beyond)
all came up with different transformers based on the Designer's Sets.  I
love the idea of alternate models since they're designs you can share with
other people that you know they can build if they have the same set(s) --
and because they're designs other people can share with me, of course ;-).
Your Hulk is a great example of this.  I think the Designer's Sets are a
good medium for this since they each have a parts selection that's general
for a particular theme.  It might even be neat to print out building
instructions for some of these and bring them to the Road Show.  That way
the kids could see some of the cool stuff us adults have done and then go
home and build them with their own Designers sets.

Thanks,
Paul
