(...) My personal favorites would be 1989 and 1995 because these were the years where two major "flagship" sets were released within the same year. (1981 was probably another year, but I was not around then) 1989 had the 8854 Power Crane and the (...) (23 years ago, 4-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic)

Wow! Very cool Dave! I like the claws; you've used those Bionicle pieces nicely. The four arms are great as well; creative and scary. The backpack looks good, as well. ;-) (...) I (...) no (...) (23 years ago, 4-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle, lugnet.build.mecha)

Thanks! My collection of Technic wing parts (hint) was growing too rapidly for me to ignore for much longer. I just needed an excuse to pull out all the black ones (larger are from Blaster, smaller are from Boss). As far as the foot coverings are (...) (23 years ago, 4-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

What I intend to attempt to do is give the kids concepts to work with rather than showing them how to build a particular thing. However, since I'll be working with a "finished" product they'll have something they can take home themselves. In other (...) (23 years ago, 4-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

That's pretty cool Dave! I especially like the jet pack. Whatever those pieces are called, they make for great wings/general body enlarging parts ( I hope you know which ones I'm talking about - they are hard to describe). I wish I had more of them. (...)

Wal-Mart seems to be worse than any other store for opened packages, but it just has a bad vibe. I try not to go there in the daylight when it is particularly busy. A brief check of the Kanohi boxes I have lying around seem to show that the US boxes (...) (23 years ago, 4-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

Thanks Benjamin, I appreciate the input. The #3 pieces (if that's what you mean) come in several different colors. I have black, beige and white. I don't know if they come in other colors or not. I've used all the ones I have to make hands and I (...) (23 years ago, 4-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

Feeling truely inspired by Mark Chan's Super Toa- (URL) I decided to tackle the one I didn't see: Onua. Oddly enough, I had the prototype jetpack built months before Onua was even available. I had no idea it would become part of this creation. The (...) (23 years ago, 4-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

(...) I've only ever found 1 of the UK foil packet versions opened, and I don't believe for a minute that kids over here are any less hooligan than kids in the USA! Maybe you can't subtly rip them open like you can with a box. As a side line, I want (...) (23 years ago, 4-Oct-01, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)
