Great work! *wub* Now take some deep breaths and let the MOCs flow! :-D Seriously, I felt like that until around six months ago. :-$ I'm almost finished my own sorting job. *sweet*

I know that but my point was that the page that ImperialScouts linked to didn't. ;-) :'-) Awww thanks! :-P What! Next you'll be saying that this is a Lego site or something. :-|

Let me assure you that if someone here had any of those sets they wouldn't be keeping it a secret!

Does it answer my chicken question?

What came first; the chicken or the egg?

Nah, he's hinckley39... You picked the wrong auction then; you could have saved a buck! X-D

Thanks, I thought that was the case! *sweet*

Well, it just seems right to me! But also because it reminds me of a HEMTT and they are about that long.

Well that' more experience than I have! X-D I know; I posted a link to the English version of that page. ;-) Thanks! *sweet*

That's a beautiful brute! *wub* Can't wait to see it finished. I think you should be going for six wheels long.

Thanks for the review. *sweet* This set turns up January in Australia (as does the Battle Arachnoid) so I was curious about this one. Is that the head you got? The picture shows Ha-Ya-To... 8-| This one has the weakest mini-robot, but that is hardly surprising. Overall though it looks like a great set for the money; just compare it to Sentry and Uplink! :-P

I was hoping you would chime it! How common were they?

OK. I didn't expect that! :-D Thanks for the laugh. I'll have to show my wife; she loves frogs. *sweet*

Hinckley, Hinckley, he's our man, if he can't review it no one can. *wub* I love that fish, and oddly it didn't occur to me that you would be able to change the hat... :-$ I'm pretty dim sometimes. Eitherway, I think this set looks perfect, including the windshield. With that many of those round windows you could make train! :-D

Thanks for the review Hinckley! *wub* It looks pretty good with a lot of great parts, and the platform is better than I expected. Sandy is really good too. I'm not asking for a photo, but does the helmet fit over a walrus head? X-D Eitherway, that part will be appearing in MOC-a-plenty soon! :-P Now I'm just dreading the price... :-/

My Dec magazine arrived; no free Lego this time. :'-( Just a Bionicle poster. :-/

Thanks for the tip. :-| What you don't seem to know is that he bought at least two and put one on eBay. It went for around 60 USD...

These are from the Australian Dec07 catalog that I received today.

Welcome to Eurobricks! The more the merrier! :-D

Not a problem. I wish you luck! *sweet*

It's on Peeron and Bricklink and it's from 1977. The range was called "Minitalia" and it actually isn't 100% lego; that's why it has an unusual number. Lego were forced to make sets in Italy for a while due to import restrictions so the box might say that it is made in Italy. Yours however is one of the last ones so it should actually be mostly real Lego. You can find out more here and see the full list of sets here.

Welcome to Eurobricks newbie! X-D It wasn't Hinckley's was it?

Aren't we a helpful bunch on Eurobricks? *wub* :-P That's OK! I probably should have said where the link went in my post.

That is where my link goes to... 8-|
