(...) I should've know better than to say "loose joint" in front of professor snead! You'd be disappointed to hear this Chris but I haven't even had a chance to use these in any build yet, even though I swore I would. Lack of time more than (...)

(...) Aaah, but what about the Zoids Blox series?? I just picked up two sets while at the San Diego Comic Con and interestingly enough the holes in the blocks/blox fits and axle or pin perfectly. Hmmmm.... (22 years ago, 12-Aug-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) You realize, of course, there is a very nice way to stiffen those joints significantly in both axes. I'll post it in a couple of weeks, but the technique is very similar to the plate hinge stiffening technique. Personally, on my wish list is a (...)

(...) Hmm...I've seen some of the model kits by Bandai, and those are pretty cool, but I haven't been holding my breath for the gundam lego, because I know that's never going to happen. It would be cool, but until then, I guess we'll have to do (...) (22 years ago, 12-Aug-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) The listed copyright owners of the core Gundam series are Sotsu Agency and Sunrise. Bandai is the only company that I can think of that is currently producing Gundam related merchandise.

(...) Oh, definitely. It would be great to see some lego models, particularly of the Gundam Wing or Transformers line. I think that would be definitely innovative, and contribute to some great sales.

I would definitely like to see Lego acquire a license and started producing mecha themed sets(if they can't do something cool on their own - highly likely). To some extent I believe in the minds of TLC, they already are through Bionicle and some of (...) (22 years ago, 11-Aug-02, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.lego.direct)

I've made a point of avoiding video games for years now. It's weird because I love them. I know this is gonna seem REALLY Old Skool, but, I loved my Nintendo!

There is a character in the new stunts sets, I think he is the news reporter. His name is spelled Informaniac on the SAH site: (URL) spelled Infomaniac (no R) on the lego.com site: (URL) I like the R better, it's more of a play on his job. The (...) (22 years ago, 9-Aug-02, to lugnet.lego.direct)
