(...) Thanks!!! When I saw the Ferrari set, I noticed those parts and thought they would make a good engine intake. The rest kind of grew organically from there. The limited-parts issue is more of a problem with the interior. (18 years ago, 3-Sep-06, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Nicely done. I'm a big fan of both series. I grew up with the 78 version and the new version is great as well. Now for a question. Several years ago I was surfing the net and found a completed minifig scale version of the original Battlestar (...) (18 years ago, 1-Sep-06, to lugnet.space, FTX)

OK, I saw this, and it was wonderfully cool. Now, of course, I want to do something similar with the GBC train or Mindstorms battlebots/sumo. So, who's was this? How did you do it?
