Same here, Paul. The parts alone have helped revive Technic from the sorry state
that it was in. As far as your creations are concerned, I feel you can refer to
them as mecha simply because you are taking Bionicle to a new level, in much the
way I am. I, too, could care less about the storyline, the card game, the video
game, or the characters themselves. I just want the parts! Currently, I'm
working infusing more Bionicle parts into Gundam-like creations. I'm proud to
say that they look fantastic from the knee down (okay, so I have some work to do
on the rest of it).

For me, Bionicle got me looking at Technic as a whole again: not for the sets, but for parts to make better er mechanical men ( I wouldn't call them any form of Bionicle and I might get flamed if I call them Mechs ). I'm not the least bit interested (...) (25 years ago, 17-Oct-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.technic.bionicle)
