Hey gang, my latest creation is completed. With 3 technic motors, 1 micromotor, 3 fiberoptic banks, 4 large pneumatic cylinders, and 1 small pneumatic cylinder, this has a lot of nifty features. Check out the A-10 on the technic page. Thanks much (...) (23 years ago, 30-Nov-01, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.technic, lugnet.build.military) !!
