Q. I sell my Lego Mecha creations. Can I by included in the Mecha Hub?

A. This is a sticky question and one which took quite a while to answer. After consulting several lawyers we have decided not to include builders who make a living selling their Lego creations. This means that if selling your Lego creations is your Primary source of income you cannot be included in the MechaHub. The potential conflicts of interest and copyright issues are simply too complex for a fan based website. We will, however, link to websites of Lego artists.

If you sell instructions we can include them so long as you do not make your living selling them.

Of course, you’re free to have whomever you want in your club; but maybe you could have been more forthright:
