I added a Pneumatic Claw ( like the Airtech claw rig ) to my 8462 secondary model today, and learnt something very useful. The older flex tubing, like that is used in the 8462, is very handy when used as tubing extenders. I used two pieces running (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jan-01, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.technic)

Just for the record, I hate stickers. In the last month I put together C-3P0, the stormtrooper and the ucs x-wing and I have never seen so many stickers in my life. I am anti-sticker from now on. I have the wrinkling sticker problem on the feet (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jan-01, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.starwars)

I made a stop by Target today to make sure they hadn't lowered their clearance prices anymore, and they had the 8007 C3PO. $29.97. I just got through assembling the set.

This could just be something to do with the sets I have, but I noticed that many sets before 1995 seem to have really stiff and strong pieces. They take a lot more strength to join but once connected, they stay on very tightly. Some models I got in (...) (25 years ago, 13-Jan-01, to lugnet.technic)
