  Retro Bots
 
I'm a huge fan of Classic Space and retro sci-fi in general. Lately, I've been sort of stuggling with pulp robots and I just wanted to say a thank you to both Chris Giddens and Timotheus Deering; you're bots were the right kind of kick-in-the-teeth (...) (21 years ago, 10-Jun-03, to lugnet.space)

(...) That is really cool. I love the shape of the cockpit and the isolated greebliness. Adrian (URL) (21 years ago, 10-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

  Re: Theoretical Question: Missile Design
 
(...) Which is why later model T-80's employed re-active armor to explode on contact and redirect the shaped charge prior to detonation. I believe the Challenger and Leopard tanks use this mechanism as well... (21 years ago, 10-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: New MOC: The Starflux
 
(...) Beautiful work. The greeblage is done really well. And I like the stripped-down, no-frills design. Good work. (URL) (21 years ago, 10-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

As said elsewhere Bruce, this is not simply a ship....it's pure art, baby. That rear 3/4 angle...gives me shivers. Awesome. Cheers, -Gil (URL) (...) (21 years ago, 10-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Hehe, I see you liked the name I suggested. ;) Maybe this will start another (...) (21 years ago, 10-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: New MOC: The Starflux
 
(...) Cool. All it needs is a large hydrogen scoop out the front and it'd really look like a table lamp. ;) But seriously, I like it's hard sci-fi feel, and the round shape has been excecuted realy well. I can't help thinking that it needs some (...) (21 years ago, 10-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) I guess it was just a case of 'inability to gauge tone from text' then (well put Mike). (...) Well, it's not me reading it I'm concerned about... it's the guy that left the can of stupid lying around ;-) Cheers, (URL) (21 years ago, 10-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: Eastern Block Bot destroys cow, Lego citizens slaphappy with fear.
 
(...) Apart from anything else, by any reckoning, 'can of stupid' is a pretty funny expression, particularly an exploding one. This, though, was more like a mild splattering from an incorrectly opened yoghurt style tub of stupid. Tim is guilty of (...) (21 years ago, 10-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: Eastern Block Bot destroys cow, Lego citizens slaphappy with fear.
 
(...) It was most certainly a joke - and I'm glad you found it funny, Mike. Sure, my humor can be biting at times, but I'm not making you read it... -Tim (21 years ago, 10-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
 
  Re: Eastern Block Bot destroys cow, Lego citizens slaphappy with fear.
 
(...) Interesting? I took the statement as a joking one rather than a statement of ill-sentiment. I guess we have the whole 'inability to gague tone from text' problem to blame for that. -Mike Petrucelli (URL) (21 years ago, 10-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

  Re: New MOC: The Starflux
 
(...) Very cool, Bruce. Love the colour scheme, the curved canopy, the dark gray detailing, love it all. I'd love even more to see a modularised version so you can put a couple more mid-segments in. Nice work! Cheers, (URL) (21 years ago, 10-Jun-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
