That little guy is great! Now all he needs is a ray-gun, and he'll replace your guard dog :) Seriously, though, you've really captured the feel of the minifig! I love him! Well, I don't want to marry him or anything, he just looks do damn spiffy ... (22 years ago, 30-Apr-03, to lugnet.build.sculpture, lugnet.space)

(...) No, he won't replace General Charlie, but he'll definitely be a nice complement. Okay, that brings up a question for you then: For the ray gun, the base will be in the light gray. The trans-color should be green or red? I was also thinking of (...) (22 years ago, 30-Apr-03, to lugnet.build.sculpture, lugnet.space)

Hey Anne, This is great! I especially like that the helmet and air tanks are removable. That's a level of detail I probably would have skipped if I'd done something like this. You also really nailed the logo, which is cool. This guy was my first (...) (22 years ago, 30-Apr-03, to lugnet.build.sculpture, lugnet.space)

That's really cool. The tanks and helmet look great. The head's solid stud is a nice touch. I'm glad I inspired someone to make one of these guys, although I wouldn't have done it myself if I hadn't seen Joel Bedger's work. Very cool. -Andrew (...)
