Stephen,

That is a really neat site you have developed!  Your manned mission sounds
really interesting and looks magnificent!  I can see from the available pics
that a LOT of time and effort has gone into its design.  I hear you about
being away from one's collection...I go to Wash U in St. Louis but live in
NJ.  However, I'm taking classes locally this semester and all I can say is
it's great to have access to the bricks.
Your Johnny 5 is excellent!  You seem to have captured his "spirit" well.  A
MINICON Optimus Prime...hehe.  Your larger Optimus Prime is great!  If you
haven't seen Jeremiah Vandermark's working TFs, check 'em out:
http://news.lugnet.com/build/mecha/?n=8215.  He's actually in the process of
making an Optimus (shhh!).
I look forward to seeing your space stuff.

ciao&salaam

Hello, I've read posts here for years, but have made relatively few posts of my own. I blame it all on a mechanical engineers natural laziness. Anyways, I overcame my laziness enough to put up some pages of my Lego stuff on my website. You'll find (...) (24 years ago, 6-Apr-03, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space) !
