  Turtle People from Testudo 9!

  Re: Alien-style minifig
 
(...) Neat! I like the hammerhead look of the warrior. I think they would look nice in blue or green. Thanks for the idea. Marc Nelson Jr. (21 years ago, 1-Dec-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.minifigs)
 
  Sandtrooper Mods
 
So I bought the Cantina set and decided to clone the Sandtrooper with some mods for the backpack. (2 URLs) Regards, ACPin & Sons (21 years ago, 1-Dec-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space, lugnet.build.minifigs, FTX)
 
  Alien-style minifig
 
Technic and Town combine to create Space. Isn't that an interesting blend... I present: an Alien (kind of). (URL) head design can be widely adapted and has an amazing range of interesting possibilities. For instance, a warrior: (URL) how about a (...)

  Re: Space helmet
 
My bad. I didn't notice the part where it says that the 2X2 round plate is modified. (21 years ago, 14-Nov-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.minifigs)
 
  Re: Space helmet
 
(...) I love it, I've always considered what it would take to use those domes on a minifig. I might consider going 'impure' for a Flash Gordonesque serial that's in the works. -Sean (21 years ago, 14-Nov-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.minifigs)

  Re: Space helmet
 
Here we go again, another great debate on purists and non-purists. It's kind of funny the way we (I include myself, i'm no different than the rest of you) see and use lego parts as if they had something holy in them :-) (21 years ago, 14-Nov-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.minifigs, FTX)
 
  Re: Space helmet
 
(...) Whuah??? I know the set designers have to modify bricks, since they usually end up designing new elements. A friend of mine was a set designer for a while, he designed the [LEGOSet 7130]and a few others... But Master Builders? We've always (...)

  Re: Space helmet
 
(...) Mike specified that it required the modification of the 2x2 round plate. A correctly sized drill bit would open the axle hole up to a circular stud sized hole. Seems like an easy enough, and unnoticable enough modification to be doable by all (...) (21 years ago, 14-Nov-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.minifigs)
 
  Re: Space helmet
 
(...) Indeed it doesn't look possible to do with real bricks... (21 years ago, 14-Nov-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.minifigs)
 
  Re: Space helmet
 
How do you get the minifig's round neck to go through the + shaped hole in the 2X2 round plate? Is it maybe something that can only be done in CAD? (21 years ago, 14-Nov-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.minifigs)
 
  Space helmet
 
With a little modification of a 2x2 round plate, you get an excellent Moon helmet... (URL) as slim as a normal helmet, perhaps, but it's more like what your typical cartoon Mars helmet looks like. ~Mike (21 years ago, 14-Nov-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.minifigs)

  Re: admin: broken link
 
(...) Lar, Thanks for the compliment. I actually prefer that updates/requests be posted to the group. That way they are saved for posterity, and the progress/history of the group is searchable. Thanks, Clark Visit my Vintage Parts pages, submissions (...) (21 years ago, 1-Nov-03, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.admin.curators)
 
  Re: fixed broken link
 
(...) Mike, Thanks for the notification. I do not regularly check for broken links, and do not have a Lugnet tool for doing so. I have to rely on users to let me know when something changes. I looked for an updated site for that program but couldn't (...) (21 years ago, 1-Nov-03, to lugnet.build.minifigs)

  admin: broken link
 
I don't see a curator name on the page, so I hope you'll forgive me for posting this to the newsgroup! The link to the Minifig Sticker Printer is broken. 404, all pages nonexistent. ~Mike (21 years ago, 30-Oct-03, to lugnet.build.minifigs)
 
  Re: ...WoW!
 
(...) I can only hope that what I'm doing is, or will, have a positive effect within the community. While money is nice, it's not the real reason why I started this venture. It's the "WOW's" that I love the best. Knowing that I can make someone (...) (21 years ago, 29-Oct-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.build.minifigs)
