(...) Most of the 3PO parts are black. I built the set last night (it IS a pretty cool set:-)). The assembly of the arms and head (so they pop off) is ingenius! (...) I think that the spheres fit tightly enough that they would support a medium - say (...) (24 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.starwars)

(...) How about the rest of the pieces in there, though? Are the ones in the ST markedly better for mecha building? I hear that most of the 3PO parts are actually black... Also, how 'strong' are the ball joints - how much pressure do they take to (...) (24 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.starwars)

(...) The C3-PO has the most ball joints- a total of 5, compared to the S.T.'s 4. and yes, they are cool for mecha. I've built one this week with them and I'll post pics soon. Later, Todd (URL) (24 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.starwars)

|

I was looking at the new Technic sets - the C3PO and the Stormtrooper - and thinking that those ball & socket joints would be pretty darn handy in making mecha and similar posable things. But I'm not sure which set to pick up, so I thought I'd (...) (24 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.starwars)

I've finally got around to building my first MOC, and I've finally created a BrickShelf account. After a lot of messing around I've managed to upload MPDs and renderings of my 2 Interceptor designs (first one replacement of wings on 7146 TIE Fighter (...)

(...) What about the "common" minifigure head-print smudge on those that are printed using more than one color? If we start talking about them, then I'll have to make a spreadsheet, mostly covering the Adventurer sets. P.S. In the last few years any (...) (24 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.starwars)

Geesh I have had "lots" of new sets parts not "melted" but pieces so brittle (not from cold) they break under normal human finger pressure. Anyone else? -- Kenneth A. Drumm Ph.D. (24 years ago, 12-Jan-01, to lugnet.starwars)

I've got a new MOC, it's the Swoop Bike popularized by Shadows of the Empire. I borrowed heavily from the Lego Speeder Bike, and I also utilized a design by Dan Harp which I found on Brickshelf. He's got a couple of hover-bikes up which are pretty (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.starwars)
