Many humbled thanks for your kind words Aaron!. I thought my mods were
cool, but never expected quite a reply as yours. Compliments like those
make the whole hobby worth-while (as if it needed another excuse!!).

I've actually been trying to works out the details of lighting eyes and
other items. My test subject will probably be Ogel (from Alpha Team) or
C3P0. The space helmet visor is a great idea though! As for putting more
than one minifig on a battery box, of course you can! I even add
electronics inside the minifigs so you can put them facing either way.
Thats what takes up most of the time I spend on these mods. It takes a
little bit of holding your mouth just right to get everything hooked up,
crammed inside the minifig, and working too!

Thanks again Aaron for "brightening" my day. There will definitely be more
mods coming, so I'll keep everyone posted!
