  Re: B.I. Joe: Killer Whale Hovercraft
 
(...) It looks great! Having the toy, I have been wanting to build one myself. I have a couple of suggestions if you trying to make it a little more accurate. You could make the missle launchers smaller, just by using 2x4 bricks and sticking the (...) (20 years ago, 24-Nov-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)
 
  Re: B.I. Joe: Killer Whale Hovercraft
 
(...) I never had any GI Joe stuff as a kid (pretty much just Lego), but this is a cool model in its own right. You've got a lot of nice details- I especially like the mounted machine guns and the beautiful rocket launcher boxes. The hidden (...)

  Re: B.I. Joe: Killer Whale Hovercraft
 
Very nice, brings a tear to me eye. As for contestable entry, feed me the dimensions, maggot! Rick (20 years ago, 23-Nov-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX)
 
  B.I. Joe: Killer Whale Hovercraft
 
Greetings! After a little forced hiatus, Joe is back and he's hoverin' to glory! (URL) I actually had this mostly built for quite some time, but just recently finished off the last couple details. If the our iron-booted overlords think it qualifies (...) (20 years ago, 22-Nov-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military, FTX) ! 
 
  Re: Tank-killer..
 
(...) Thanks! I thought about your suggestion and came up with a solution that not only made the "black hole" suppressors, it reinforced the tail, which I say, COOL! Of course I didn't take pix yet, but they will posted soon. I really appreciate the (...) (20 years ago, 19-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)
 
  Re: Tank-killer..
 
This is a superb model. My only suggestion to get a little closer to the real thing would be to replace the last two plates worth of the engines with black, or maybe dark grey, instead of the current grey (part of the rear 1x1 grey brick) to (...)

  Re: File A56-7W
 
(...) James, Archangel is on the way (although the eyepatch is a problem) :-)..I would have thought that Hawk would have been the one to be here. And Blue Thunder? Well......maybe. I really like the Lady! Joe (20 years ago, 17-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)
 
  Re: Tank-killer..
 
(...) Oops. I should have looked this up. But it's easily fixed. Thanks for catching this. And if you noticed this, someone else would too. Thanks for the comments! Joe (20 years ago, 17-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)
 
  Re: Tank-killer..
 
(...) Thanks! That's about the best compliment one can give! I hope to see a micro from you soon! Joe (20 years ago, 17-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)
 
  Re: Tank-killer..
 
(...) Smoke parts have been some of the best things to come from LEGO this year! And that rounded wedge is a great piece! Joe (20 years ago, 17-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)
 
  Re: Tank-killer..
 
(...) Thanks, Cyndi - As usual, the Apache was a bunch of happy accidents while building something else. Airwolf. The nose built itself, then the cockpit, then...the rest of it! A very fun build, as is Micro in general to me. and don't worry, (...) (20 years ago, 17-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)
 
  Re: Tank-killer..
 
(...) Wow, that's a great job! It looks more convincing than many larger scale models. One critique: the tips on the main rotor blades should be swept in the opposite direction. Looking down on the helo, the main rotor blades rotate (...) (20 years ago, 16-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)
 
  Re: Tank-killer..
 
Hi Joe I saw your Apache while at work today and didn't have the time to really look at it. Sitting at home now I think it is fantastic, really spot on realistic. It makes me want to build micro scale. Thanks for the inspiration. Chris P.S. Your (...) (20 years ago, 16-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)
 
  Re: File A56-7W
 
(...) But, does it have a guy in a white suit with an eye-patch? Man, the memories that brings back! Where's Blue Thunder? James Wilson Dallas, TX (20 years ago, 16-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)
 
  Re: Tank-killer..
 
Cool chopppers! Clever use of those new smoke pieces. -Stefan- (20 years ago, 16-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)
 
  Re: Tank-killer..
 
(...) Hi Joe- it's beautiful, crisp, clean. Very nicely executed! I really love your microscale work, keep it coming :) Cyndi (20 years ago, 16-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.build.microscale, FTX)

Hi Dave You’ve linked to the wrong page; it point at some woozy guide to wimpy nonlethal weapons. Cheers NB (20 years ago, 6-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space, FTX)

Not sure where to FUT--please direct as appropriate. (URL) 4 meg document may provide some interesting ideas for mech weaponry, etc. Dave! (20 years ago, 3-Nov-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.build.military, lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: New MOC: "Condor" Hover Gunship
 
(...) Whoa! Very innovative design, but I can see where JP is coming from when he says it seems unbalanced... It reminds me of Jon's Q-wing, but in that case the bulk was central, where it met the circular section, rather than in this case where (...)
