I'm all for minifigs, assuming they're not somehow part of the structure! :lol:

This is a great first theme by the way. There are plenty of car bits to use obviously, and we can go nuts with the designs. :) I'm going to sleep on it and build mine tomorrow.

Great mines think alike!

Mine has arms too!

Although your grabber arm is bigger than mine :cry:

Shouldn't you all reveal at the same time? So no one can copy etc?

But it might sub consciously effect you. You also might scrap a great idea because you are scared of being a copier.

That is awesome, but I think manny has a point, it would be cooler if everyone just pm'ed their design and then we had a big reveal at the end of the month.

This "theme" is perfect for a little experimental technique I've been, erm, experimenting with.

That was a lot of fun. It's a real challenge to just use the parts from the kit. I kept thinking "if only I could use a part from my collection!"

Anyway, here's mine!...
