Welcome to Eurobricks! Where in Tasmania are you from? I'm in Derwent Park....

Well that was a lot different to the recent ones.... and while I am one of the people who asked for less distractions, I kind of missed them in this one. *wacko*

:-D Did you get a discount off your next order? ;-)

7993 Service Station and 7694 MT-31 Trike.

Sad to say I think that is the worst by a long shot... :-$

:-P It sure does! I'll get back in my box now. :-$

I always thought that without the thrust from the tail rotor it would turn fast enough... and the NOTAR patent... ...supports this. ;-) But don't let me being a twit ruin your fun. It still is a cool looking chopper. *sweet* Besides, at this very moment I am making a transforming plane; how realistic is that?! :-P

Welcome back! Where's the birth vig? ;-)

I say go cold turkey! That would be the ultimate test if you are a wimp or not...

True, but my life is so exciting that I need a menu for everything.

Ahh, but she's at work. :-P Besides; it's OK to look at the menu providing you eat at home...

This is pretty cool. *wub* It actually reminds me of that annoying "car" by Moller that has been promised for about 30 years. :-| Is the resembance a co-incidence? Eitherway, unlike the Moller Skycar, I think it is great and it looks very Batmanish to me! :-D

Great MOC! *wub* Unlike many tranformers this one looks good in both modes. I probably shouldn't look at it too hard though as I am working on a transformer at the moment... :-P

I think it's pretty good! *wub* I wish Lego sold more hair pieces that looked less flat... Very good for a first attempt! *sweet*

Oh! Marian is beautiful! *wub* I might need to be alone for a while... :-$

I like this one. *sweet* It looks very practical... which is what a supply truck needs to be! :-D The grills on the bonnet are a nice touch; I assume that is needed for the amphibious capabilities. Like Batbrick I think it needs more to be a convincing floater; perhaps inverted pieces at the front?

Well you're off to a good start! *wub* Jack Frost: Cool! ( :-| ) Gingerbread Man: OK... it works best at a distance due to colour matching... Peacoat: I like this design Max Rebo: He looks good so far; where's the painted version you promised... (I love the soft toy! :-D )

A chopper now! :-P Overall I like this a lot, the shape is really cool looking and it reminds me of Ka-50... The colour (including the lime ;-) ) works quite well and I love the stub wings. Feel free to ignore the stuff below... <Wanker mode> As a chopper it is not very convincing. I realise that you say it is a NOTAR design, but the exhaust really should be further out on the boom to be effective, and unless the rotor can spin both ways the exhaust should only be on one side. On the same issue, if the tail generates extra lift it will cause the chopper to nosedive.... Is there any reason why you decided to design it the way you did? Your other stuff is quite believable and I must admit I was a bit surprised... </Wanker mode>

Sad to say, I agree with the others; I considered buying this set several times but there always were more appealing sets around. It isn't in any of my local stores now. If it included actual motorcycle wheels I would have found it more appealing. A very good review though! Your bird is extreamely cool. *wub* Would a picture of that on the box have made me buy it? Not sure.. 8-| On sale probably, but it never went on sale for me...

Congrats Chuck! *sweet* Will this mean you will enter in more EB contests or will you retire un-defeated? :-D

I really love this one and it's made quite smart too! *wub* I think this is much better than the fire truck. The use of half-stud offsets really help make it look rounder. Great work! I tend to use just the 1x1 gauge piece.

Oh! *wub* Sorry, I missed this! :-$ Great ideas; this set just turned up in my local stores and I was looking for better photos... I think I want this set even more now! :-D I never thought the Toll Gate would work so well. The tow truck is pretty cool too!

:-D I meant that people might be surprised to hear that I think a Lego-clone set could just possibly be worth buying. Perhaps I should have said;

I think this is a really cool set and I don't even like the Jedi fighters! A must buy for me! *wub*

Actually I was serious. I wasn't attacking you at all. I was just making the point that re-invention happens a lot... and it's annoying. :-/
