What critera are used to determine if a robot is a mech or not? Does it have to be used for war? Does it have to be big? Does it have to be humanoid? Is a Throwbot a kind of mech (they are big compared to minifigs, they have battles, and most are (...) (24 years ago, 22-Oct-00, to lugnet.town, lugnet.build.mecha)

Mechs are a Japanese idea -- "what could be cooler," asked one of them once, "than big humanoid robots that can fight battles and stuff?" Since then, Japanese anime (animated TV and movies) has been full of them. If you've never watched any, you're (...) (24 years ago, 22-Oct-00, to lugnet.town)

What is a mech supposed to be? Did "Mechs" come from a TV show or something? I don't know a thing about them besides they're pretty neat looking. I never heard the name "mech" until I looked it up online. Can someone PLEASE tell me all the things(or (...) (24 years ago, 21-Oct-00, to lugnet.town)

In the Pharma Plus drug store in the Zellers mall in Lindsay, Ontario, they have two HTO sets (and some RoboRiders, but they are pretty common).

Looks to me more like an Oilrig in the middle of the ocean. For interests sake it's kind of cool the way Lego made a European version (369) with yellow coloured vehicles, and an American version (575) with US Coastguard style colours. Nicholas Allan (...)
