Howdy I had such luck finding spare manuals for some Star Wars sets that I figured I'd try over here on some Technic manuals. I picked up a big fat eBay pkg of tons of sets & there were a few Technic sets w/out manuals. I'm looking for: 8205 Bungee (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jul-00, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Well, Granite's big limitation is that he's a four-legger. Arms and legs just make for more posability. At least Turbo has wheels and Electro has wings, Granite just has pickaxes that wack his own front legs. However, if you're going for a (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jul-00, to lugnet.technic)
