Star Wars was the first LEGO theme that I really followed with a passion (mostly because I grew up on Star Wars), but Bionicle is currently my favorite. Like peanut butter and chocolate, it only made sense to mash them together, in a way that only (...)

(...) Sounds cool! I'm thinking about driving to BrickFest from Minnesota, so that I can take a bunch of pre-assembled MOCs with me.

TJ's solution is the strongest I can think of, but if you don't have those uncommon parts, try a "corner bracket" made of 2 #6 (90 degree) connectors, 2 1 x 3 liftarms, 4 1/2 bushings, 2 3L axles and 2 5L axles. The configuration is left as an (...) (21 years ago, 12-May-03, to lugnet.technic)

(...) TJ, If you rebuild your uCOG V using the new instructions (not much of a change), and you turn uCOG V around, your minifig should be able sit on uCOG V and go for a ride! I'll have to try that here. Kevin (21 years ago, 12-May-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)

Hi Philo, Great minds think alike. I did the same last night. I've got one build with studs up, and a second with studs down. I'm going to update the building instructions, and post the DAT files as well. I figure it is a good example of the new (...)
