You've got a kick ass mechanoid in there, Sam. What's it of? Or from ur own imagination.
Thanks STL. :)
I wanted to make some kinda medical mech, here's my MOCpage on it:

Custom designed sets (with instructions) by Shoji Kawamori (Macross mech designer):

From wikipedia:
In 2006, Lego commissioned Shoji Kawamori to design combination models using various Exo-Force sets. The combo-units were called VAN-Force; they featured custom decals, which were given away with purchase of bundled Exo-Force sets in Japan. The first VAN-Force design used the Stealth Hunter and Grand Titan. A second combination design called "Raiden" (which uses the Stealth Hunter, Grand Titan, and Thunder Fury) was revealed in December 2006. In Kawamori's Macross fashion, the units can transform between from robot to vehicle. According to Exo-Force writer, Greg Farshtey, Lego does not have the rights to reproduce the VAN-Force design for sale in stores.
Whoa! Those are mindblowingly amazing. I want to get all those sets already but now I'm even more eager... I think my Transformers buying may have to slow down! :eek:
Are there any instructions of those anywhere? Having built two and picked up AeroBooster, I can see a few ways to get transforming parts. I'm still a bit of a noob though so there's more to learn about the structures and methods you can use. Plus, there's the added annoyance that these look so damn good that you don't want to tear them down. :(
Instructions for those 2 mechs are listed on the page - click on the numbered thumbnails for instructions. If you are after additional parts, I recommend bricklink.com for all your parts needs. Its like ebay but for Lego. It has an inventory guide for every set produced so if you are missing parts from a set, you can obtain them easily and cheaply. I've ordered parts for complete sets and they ended up cheaper than buying the sets themselves!! Plus you can obtain rare parts which the Legoshop might not have. :cool:
Also with bricklink.com I've found the sellers to be of the highest standard. I've ordered parts from the U.S., U.K. and France and it always arrives within ten days.
EDIT: I do go through Peeron.com to compare prices on bricklink as there can be a large difference in price from one seller to another for the same part.
I've been contemplating buying a ton of white bricks through there to do a custom Hoth scene.
Hey guys, one of the other lego sets I'm really interested in is the 6212 X-Wing. Is that only sold at TRU here or are there other stores that have it? Cos I've looked on eBay and it doesn't get much better and I'm not sure how often TRU have sales on Lego. Does anyone know if there will be any sales for the upcoming SW Clone Wars flick? I seem to recall a TRU sign saying they'll open at midnight or some such.
TRU will open on 12.01am on 01/08/2008 (Friday) this week!
