Casting aside the current debate, may I just say, wow! How cool is it that you connected all those mini-fig hands to that yellow 1x1 tile and grey 1x1 w/clip on that Yellow thingie on the left. Coolest LEGO thing I saw all day. Thanks. e (20 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.space)

(...) Wow, has this ever stirred up a hornet's nest. Richie, first about your MOC. You got the basic swastika shape, but little else. If you want to do space Fascists, you have steep competition -- Keith Goldman and Paul Brassington come to mind. (...) (20 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Um, the EB has never killed anyone, I'm pretty sure it's make believe... The death toll in WW2 was in the 10's of millions, Hilter was a bad guy, and so were the symbols of his reign...

(...) I find Lenny's EB works to be inspired, creative, and usually filled with a bit of tounge-in-cheak. EB was also created by (URL) Chris Giddens>, not Lenny, though he rocks as an EB builder. EB is part of a bigger universe too with the PCS, (...) (20 years ago, 9-Aug-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)
