 | | April Meeting Overview
|
|
Due to the LLC event we had a small but good turnout last Saturday. I think we had about 10 members. For those who couldn't come you missed one of the all time best meetings. The location was simply stunning! Here are the high points: The location (...) (19 years ago, 5-May-05, to lugnet.org.us.lugola)

(...) Actualy the kids weren't to bad, but a few that were moving parts around were a distraction. I have 3 kids of my own, the youngest a 3yo boy, so I know how it goes. As it turns out SanDLUG will be holding a mini ISD speed building contest at (...)

(...) You ought to see what "kids" can do. How about a strong kids (younger than 14?) team vs. their non-AFOL parents at a head-to-head full ISD build. Disclaimer: I will probably *not* do this with my son - living in my house after being soundly (...)

Hi everyone! It was a great weekend at Legoland. It was my son's first time. He's 5 and hasn't really been bitten by the LEGO bug. He loves Star Wars, so I thought this might be a good tie-in. It was! He's eat, sleeping and breathing LEGOs. The ISD (...) (19 years ago, 4-May-05, to lugnet.legoland.california, lugnet.org.us.lugola, lugnet.org.us.sandlug, lugnet.starwars)

(...) Well, I had to think about this one because I want to keep on good terms with the park. A park rep gave us a "suggested idea" after Sunday's ISD build and I personally feel it would be better for a park or company rep (like Jake) to make an (...)

(...) Actually there were 4 R2D2s. The park had recently replaced the LEGO R2D2 at the front. And one of the tech guys at the park decided to retrofit the old one with RC control and motors of the feet and head. Most of the old figures in the park (...)

(...) See, we took care of the kid issue by including them on the team ;-). Seriously, I understand what you mean; wind would be a pain. (...) OK, enough with the teasers - any hints? A fleet of ISDs hanging from the ceiling, clustered around the (...) (19 years ago, 2-May-05, to lugnet.legoland.california, lugnet.org.us.lugola, lugnet.org.us.sandlug, lugnet.starwars)

It was a great weekend at the park. OK, so there wasn't the vast number of MOCs you would see at a fest but there were enough there that it certainly impressed the viewing public. Even with all the kids there, the only MOC that endured a tough time (...) (20 years ago, 2-May-05, to lugnet.legoland.california, lugnet.org.us.lugola, lugnet.org.us.sandlug, lugnet.starwars)

(...) Oh, my! That is one beautiful TIE Fighter, Jonathan. Probably the best looking brick-based TIE I've seen thus far. I hope to see it in person soon. -Dave (20 years ago, 29-Apr-05, to lugnet.org.us.lugola, FTX)

(...) Here's the actual order of events - as you'll see there is a good reason why the word did not get out even though I'm not proud of it. mid February - I first get word of a possible LUGOLA meeting in late April. March 1st - your message was (...) (20 years ago, 29-Apr-05, to lugnet.org.us.sandlug, lugnet.org.us.lugola)
