If anyone is interested, I have just put up a brand new, never before seen,
space site with some cool droids that I think could be useful to people in a
Star Wars-like universe.  These droids are the size of a minifig and are
made to look somewhat like minifigs, but without using minifig parts.  You
can check them out at my site in the droid section at
www.geocities.com/davehal2061/spacesite/index.htm .  Be sure to check out
the G-series robots and the gungan assasin-bots.  Other robots include a
fully transformable minifig-scale Optimus Prime and a minifig-scale
Jhonny-5, if anyone is interested.  There is plenty of other space stuff
too!  LMKWYT!

Steve, the Jonny 5 droid that you made is VERY good!  I had to take a double
take!  :^) It looks the real thing!  Wow.

I'm going to make a couple tonight!  Thanks for the tip!

I LOVE the Gungan Assasin-bots, they are, how do I say, too fulfillinf for a
target-rich environment! Gungan's are so stupid that they probably want to
talk to the Assassin-Bots before they get zapped. This is a sure purty way
to get rid of the Gungan menace!

I totally agree with Trevor... that Johnny 5 is great... very accurate
(Ahhh... Steve Guttenberg flashbacks...). It's kinda funny, but your site
has the same stuff mine would have if I weren't so lazy (I also did LEGO
versions of an F-15 Eagle and an Optimus Prime).

I would've also attempted Star Trek stuff, but the only project thus far is
a now abandoned microfig Bird of Prey (only colours I had for the pieces I
needed were black, white and grey. My g/f took one look and asked if it was
a Snow Goose. So I gave up). I wouldn't have thought an ultra compressed
minifig scale Enterprise would work so well, but it does! I like it a lot,
how you made it much smaller than minifig scale, modified it just enough to
make it fully 'minifig playable', yet is still very recognizable.

I really like your minifig F-15 (wish I could've done my Model Team scale
one in grey, it looks so much better). Also, how on earth did you get
Optimus' hips to move (and the legs to 'pull out') like that? The open
legged stance (and the folding hands that don't necessitate removal) are
very impressive features.

Following the general theme of creating models of things I wish I weren't
too lazy to do, are we going to see maybe an F-14 next? More Transformers? I
can't wait to find out.

Number Five is ALIVE!  No disassemble Stephanie!  It's an amazing likeness.  I
especiialy like the touch of adding the red eyes.  Nova!  Danger!  heh
