(...) Agreed 100%. I see little to no play value or humor here. This is in EXTREMELY poor taste, and sheds a bad light not just on us as AFOL's, but also on LEGO as the company whose child-themed toys you've used to spread a very adult message of (...) (20 years ago, 8-Aug-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Interesting Spiffcraft®, but don't be surprised if this theme gets a cool reception. In fact, it's probably illegal to display your MOC in public in Germany (and maybe other countries).

I like it but one mistake the swaztika is backwords. In the picture where u have it fliped upside down showing the bottom thats how the swaztika should look (unless u wanted it to be that way for a reason) but other wise cool. -FLIP- (20 years ago, 8-Aug-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)
