(...) Hi Rob, Using 3 beams of equal length (any length) gives you an equilateral triangle with 60 deg internal angle, and 120 deg external angle. Of course, connecting the nicely isn't always easy.... Regards, ROSCO (25 years ago, 14-Jun-01, to lugnet.technic)

To the contrary, half of my Toa sets limb pieces (legs in particular) have become very loose. I think they didn't used to be that way. Lewa is the only set that has the textures on the leg peices - I had assumed it was wear and tear, because he is (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jun-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

My new Pohatu(*) figure has throwbot leg pieces (part 12173) that have a texture to the spheres. This is really noticable on the shoulder pieces used as hands on Pohatu, since they now stay in place rather than flopping around. The old legs had (...)
