  Re: Kidvention still running?
 
(...) Nope. All prototypes. That was meaning that what you saw there was _not_ guaranteed to make production. They even had a technic car with spraypainted yellow panels, because those pieces weren't made in yellow (even internally!). -Tim (24 years ago, 17-Jul-00, to lugnet.legoland)

(...) Did the throwbots have new pieces or roborider heads? (24 years ago, 17-Jul-00, to lugnet.legoland)

Or perhaps even an entirely different line. And most were very crude. Practically molded (...) (24 years ago, 17-Jul-00, to lugnet.legoland)

(...) I don't know why you 'couldn't' if in fact that was the case. But I do know that I didn't, cause I barely got the opportunity to take pictures while I was there. I took about 90 of them up by our display, but about half of them I gave the (...) (24 years ago, 17-Jul-00, to lugnet.legoland)
 
  Re: Kidvention still running?
 
Actually, those mock-ups weren't described to me as Throwbots in any way shape of form. They looked incredible, especially the larger ones. In terms of size, they were taller than Millennia and wider too. Few (if any) Throwbot parts were evident in (...) (24 years ago, 17-Jul-00, to lugnet.legoland)
