(...) I think that when TECHNIC bricks are used, a more solid appearance is given to the model. I personally quite like 8455. I think the previous technic excavators had a too blocky appearance. There are a lot of pneumatics in a small area and (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jul-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

Thomas, Last December I went to the Art Institute in Henderson, Nevada to try out when TLG came here for the Master Model Builder Search. I had one of the worst colds of my life! :) I remember cursing myself because they had a lot of neat models (...) (22 years ago, 11-Jul-04, to lugnet.general)

(...) I'd be genuinely curious to see some specific uses where you feel this to be the case. I'm one of those people who mostly just uses the old-style TECHNIC bricks when I want TECHNIC features in a standard brick construction (like Moonbase (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jul-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)

Tonight I've been watching 'Sport Relief' on the BBC. For those of you who don't know the program: it's a fund-raising event where all sort of celebrities do sport-related stuff to raise money for various projects. And of course they show those (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jul-04, to lugnet.general)

(...) It's not that I'm bothered about so much. It's the gratuitous use of liftarms where standard technic bricks could be used to better effect. However, it's no use trying to dig myself out of a hole. I can hear the mention of 8466, 8455, 8448, (...) (22 years ago, 10-Jul-04, to lugnet.general, FTX)
