sits with his legs at right angles to his torso, which is not how the fig in
real life sits in the MOC.  He's got more of a 135 degree arc between the legs
and the torso.  Anyway, I was too lazy to get the fig dat in the proper
orientation to sit in the cockpit so I just plopped him in there.  If you look
closely enough you'll see that his right hand has materialized inside the
brick that makes up the side of the cockpit.

Ogowch!  :-)

Hmm, too bad LEGO didn't make Han Solo in carbonite by recessing him into a
1x4x5 brick instead of printing him onto a 1x2x5...


LOL!  Just watched the movie _Dogma_ last night -- how's that as
coincidences go?

Actually its not much of a coincidence.  I'd had the name Loki picked out
for a tank a couple of years ago so it got named that.  I was then at a lost
for other names and being a fan of Kevin Smith I just used other names from
Dogma.

LOL -- oops, I guess that was ambiguous...  :-)  I meant a coincidence from my
point of view -- I watch _Dogma_ on Saturday night and then I come across your
page on Sunday which uses those names (which I was pretty sure came from the
movie since there were three :-).  I can't count the number of times I've
heard or seen a word or pair of words one day and then suddenly become aware
of them a day or two later in other places.  It's not always a coincidence but
usually just an awareness thing.  This one was a very pleasant coincidence!  :)


Besides they're pretty cool names.  I soon hope to have a Randal,
Dante, and a Brody.  But what they're going to be I have no idea.

That would be fun!  BTW, have you seen the faux trailer for _Trooper_Clerks_?
