  Frankenstein-like walking monster on LEGO.com
 
Hi everybody, A few months ago, members of rtlToronto, including myself, were approached by LEGO Direct to come up with a “scary monster” for Halloween using only parts from the new Inventor sets: 4093 Wild Wind Ups (URL), and 4094 Motor Movers (...)

  RE : 4400 Stock
 
G'Day Does anyone know of any stores with stock? ( In the GTA.) So far no luck in Brampton(x2) or Square One. Cheers Oliver I am looking at getting 4 of these. (21 years ago, 23-Oct-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: So who's up for it?
 
(...) I see nothing wrong with explaining to him that we're just in the middle of reworking the layout and we don't have anything to show at the moment. However we are planing to have the layout up and running again, better then ever in the spring. (...) (21 years ago, 23-Oct-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: So who's up for it?
 
(...) Yeah I agree as well, There is just too much stuff happening between now and the end of the year. Besides I dont think we got any further with the train 6 design, other then modeling some layouts in 4 x 4 plates... Jeff VW (21 years ago, 23-Oct-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: So who's up for it?
 
(...) I agree with this--I just wanted a general consensus before I said "no". I'll leave it open for discussion for a few more days, but Monday I'll call and, unless we can pull a rabbit out of a hat, it'll be a 'no go'. But I'll also mention to (...)

  Re: So who's up for it?
 
(...) Sorry Dave but I don't think we can get anything close to what they would be expecting by Nov 22. I haven't got time to put anything together right now. With Jeff's half of altenburg gone, and mine almost completely dismantled a big chunk of (...) (21 years ago, 23-Oct-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  So who's up for it?
 
The Christmas train show on Nov 22 and 23rd? I'm good one way or the other. I just have to let them know by the end of the month. Dave K (21 years ago, 23-Oct-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: 4400 Red Creator Tub
 
Looking at that inventory, I DO hope it shows up at US S@H or US stores. Heck, I just wanted the red tubs before this inventory was posted ;-) Anyone willing to swap some empty red tubs/lids with some of my blue, if these don't make it to the US? (...)

  Re: C$: Knowledge-Based Approach
 
(...) I'm really trying to share. (hence, this thread) In fact, I'm willing to admit that my software can currently go 7 ply deep, for the complex middle-game moves, in under 30 seconds. That should be able to beat: move=rnd(7) Now, I just need to (...) (21 years ago, 23-Oct-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: 12 x 886 Space Buggy
 
(...) Somewhat. The idea to make the legs and arms more functional came from Jeff VW in rtlToronto. He build a version of this mini-fig with the standard rtlToronto khaki pants and blue t-shirt. He also worked in gearing for the arms and legs. From (...) (21 years ago, 23-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: C$: Knowledge-Based Approach
 
(...) I disagree..... if I tell you that I ply 3 deep, you just have to code to 4 or 5 deep. you now have a better chance over me. if I say I have done the research and use the Slabovian concept, you know to counter with the "Upper Un-gabumba Land" (...)

  Re: 4400 Red Creator Tub
 
(...) Is it just me or is there a history of new buckets/tubs like this showing up in the fall, quite unannounced? Didn't the 4107 sort of drop in from the sky like this last year around this time? Curious, Allan B. (21 years ago, 23-Oct-03, to lugnet.org.ca.parlugment, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: 4400 Red Creator Tub
 
(...) That's odd. I can't find that one at S@H. Closest there is 4727 or something like that. ~Mike (21 years ago, 22-Oct-03, to lugnet.org.ca.parlugment, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: 12 x 886 Space Buggy
 
(...) Very very nice. Is the "minifig" based on the 2723 with the legs rebuilt to be functional or it completely a new design? Working on a 10x scale 'brick' horse myself, I see I'll need to do up a rider for him now... (URL) (21 years ago, 22-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
 
  Re: 4400 Red Creator Tub
 
(...) I spent hours trying to figure out which colour was which, light blue, medium blue, light green, medium green, etc. I've been using the wrong colour names quite a bit up till now. Anyways, yes, the single 1x1 brick is aqua coloured. Thanks for (...) (21 years ago, 22-Oct-03, to lugnet.org.ca.parlugment, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto, lugnet.loc.ca)
 
  Re: Want
 
(...) If you're using outlook to access the NNTP (news server), you need to update it to use port 1119 instead of port 119. Todd changed the server port after some programs started harvesting emails via port 119. (21 years ago, 22-Oct-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
