| | Toa Nuva have knees?
|
|
Judging only from some of the artwork in the back of the new sets' instruction manuals, it seems that the new legs on the Toa Nuva may have some kind of hinge-like knee joint. That would be a good thing. It's also possible that there is artistic (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jun-02, to lugnet.technic.bionicle)

Hi Ross, that crane is fantastic! What is the real hight in cm? Is it over 2 metres? Should be, because the crane is much taller then you at the "me.jgp" ... Is the boom just build with 12-Technic-axles? The model comes very close to the real one. (...) (22 years ago, 16-Jun-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.town)
