(...) Stop it—you're going to make me cry. Yeah, I've noticed the lack of real 'personality' in the new sets. Even with the designer sets, which are really nice part packs and examples of what LEGO can do. But they still lack. . . something. (22 years ago, 26-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.town)

Hi Andrew, I like it! The small size (short vehicule) makes it ideal for the busy and crowded streets of any future megapole. Good use of color, nothing really flashy, red / dark grey / and black. I always try to use only 3 colors when building. The (...) (22 years ago, 26-Mar-04, to lugnet.space)

Hi Douglas, I went on BrickShelf to check it, it's a very nice P38 you designed. It is almost studless, SNOTed (MORVEd :-))everywhere. I especially like the use of the blue 1x3x12 slope on the sides.
