| | | | | | | The micro scout is a small microcomputer for controlling simple lego robots. You can just make it out in the picture (if you know what to look for), it's mounted horizontally in the walker's torso. Arjen "Charles Spindell" <legomenace@yahoo.com> (...)

| | | | | Well, if we assume they aren't writing new "builtin" programs for the microscout for this set, I'd have to assume that it is like the STAP droid set from the DDK, intended to work with program 7, and if you "win" you blow its head off or (...)

There must be a small pinion on the microscout and the larger gear is (...) (25 years ago, 31-Jan-00, to lugnet.starwars)
