BTW, I'm really glad there's a ninja group now. Along with Wild West, it was
one of the themes that got me really back into LEGO. Thanks, everybody!

Very cool and servicable design...far superior to my Lightsaber hilt design
in terms of strength.  Your design captures the essence of what I
wanted...Thanks for sharing this...I never thought of using a Technic pin to
secure the katana.

Learn something new everyday...literally.

Thanks! It's pretty neat to teach something to somebody who has come up with
such cool stuff.

<blush> Thank You...twice

I am of the same thought as KK, I will credit you WHEN your design shows up
in my future creations =8^)

I'll have to put up some pics of my minifigs that were
inspired by your tire-hat guys.

Ahh...yes my "warriors of the steppes" AKA the Michelin clan...lol

I would be interested in seeing what you have created.  I really like "the
tire-heads".  I haven't done much with them since I made them...I will have
to revisit them.  If you change the color of the cone and used Star Wars
Robed torsos, you could call them Mamalukes or acheive a more middle-eastern
feel.

Actually, I got the idea about a naginata from
those same BrikWars pictures you mentioned, so thanks to Mike Rayhawk (I think
it was him) as well.

That is the name I was trying to think of...I couldn't remember it or find
the link in my files.  My design w/ the lightsaber hilt was actually
inspired by the Samurai warrior in the movie "Brazil" which was on the
Sci-Fi channel the night I bought the naboo swamp.
