So I'm registered and paid for as far as the con goes, but I was wondering if anyone would be interested in splitting the cost of a room with me? I would just get my own room, but that place is expensive for a 19 year old guy :( Anyway, I was planning on just checking in the 14th or 15th, and out on the 19th or 20th. I know some of you might be wary of rooming with a stranger, but please don't let that stop you!

While reading this topic, I can't help but think you could (if you have the parts) mod CP5670's annihilator to work.

haha that's cool. btw congrats on the find! I got that set for a birthday when it was new and I've never seen it for sale anywhere for less than $150

I haven't done much work with them personally, but they are so tight fitting that I imagine they can only work in VERY large scale models. The only ones I've ever seen are some of nicjasno's cars.

I've never had any major functional problems when building, but being slightly colorblind already, I hate trying to tell DBG apart from black.

i think the key to building large wheels is click hinges

that's awesome, dude! I wish I had the parts to build my own. One question: what program did you use to make the animation of the drivetrain?

Hey, if anybody from central MN is going and would be willing to carpool please PM me. I am a student and would love to go down but don't have a car I can pitch in for gas if I can find a ride. Thanks!

Because I'm going to college next fall, my parents don't think I need any more LEGO and I should grow up And the worst part is: because I'm going to college next fall, I have no money to spend on LEGO. I guess I'll have to wait to get more LEGO for about 4 years

You're 15 and convince your parents and 9 siblings to take 3 weeks and drive from MN to LEGOland California. You stay up till 2 am to finish a MOC

one question i haven't seen anyone else ask: why the heck does R2 have a gray dome ?!? I know in the movies it was silver but this just doesn't work for me. It's been white since 1999 - why change it now?

I pronounce them mock and a fall. My mom, on the other hand, doesn't play with LEGO; her answer was 'a fool' lol

Reminds me of the old black cat truck

did you notice in the credits at the end he had not one but two people credited as "sphere chasing"? lol

Thanks for the responses guys! I meant to use those parts in the LDraw model, but I don't have them in the real one I built before putting it into LDraw, and I just forgot to fix it. The only thing with using SNOT is that I'm not very good at it and the walls at that point are only one stud thick. I actually have a few of these because a) I played with them when I was little, and b) I have 5 little brothers that still do play with them
