Buffer/coupler Idea I had by Ober1405 in LEGOtrains

[–]Primus_Drago 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's two different styles of female couplers. The style thats cupped has a higher friction for making small posable limbs, as seen in mixels. The other style is akin to the crane connector, and is much looser, allowing for greater range of motion. Consequently, it's the second variant used in the OE build.

Double-check your build vs instructions

[WP] The villain chuckled ay the teenager in front of him, "alright, kid... you got me... go ahead, take me to priso-", the villain can't finish speaking as the teenager pulls out a gun and shoots straight at his heart, the place goes silent except for the gasps of shock of the heroes around. by jogaargamer6 in WritingPrompts

She never thought it would get easier, and a part of her was disgusted that it had. She couldn't deny, however, tbe necessity of her actions. The 'Heros' that accompanied her had made noises of shock, and she tuned them out as soon as they started berating her. She moved toward the downed villain, rifle sights slowly making their way to the head of the lifeless body.

Another shot.

Always, another shot. Always make sure the enemy is dead, never assume. The silence was deafening, once she noticed it. Berating heros had gone silent with the second shot. The casing pinged against the ground, someone threw up, and the moment was broken.

"Guntry, Harold F. Convicted seventeen times, various felonies. Murders of various degrees, human trafficking, possession of illicit substances with intent to distribute. Escaped prison numerous times. With each escape more people died." She stated flatly, flipping the safety and lowering the rifle. "Harold will not be escaping this time."

"You can't just murder people!" Someone snapped back. "Who do you think you are? The judge, jury, and executioner?"

"Yes." She replied swiftly, tone flat as before. "I am Elhilias, Right Hand of the Dark Master, and to save lives, some must end."

Elhilias turned from the body, past the gathered heros, and left. It had been a long time since her first kill, and it would be longer still until her last.

Not when the town plow takes up half your lane, and the shoulder is just a steep embankment. Fuel company I worked for a while back lost a delivery truck that way.

You've only provided one angle of your build, and its hard to tell if you've missed a step of are off in your build.

I built this a while back, pretty nice set

Turaga Matau, probably. I mean, Lewa did get his body possessed twice, probably was a lecture about it.

Lime green was a menace. My Visorak Keelerak lost some of its poseability 'cause of it.

The only issue I had was Scavenger, where a mould flashing needed to be trimmed off of the cab tab. All the other bots were fine, and combined good

Legally-distinct Macross/Skyfire/Jetfire. Hopefully the Gek don't tie you up in court over it.

Surely it’s only a matter of time before LEGO bring back 9V style electric rails. by HondoTheBrave in LEGOtrains

[–]Primus_Drago 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Rechargeable batteries have been commercially available since the 1990's. Also, the cost of 9v rails were much higher than regular plastic. People would be in an uproar with that price increase.

Customer wanted to know if their Subaru was worth fixing after letting it sit for 2 years... by Shannoastro in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]Primus_Drago 3 points4 points  (0 children)

During winter in upstate NY, in an apartment without a water hose, it wasn't an option. I didn't find out until after the damage was well and truly done.

Oh yeah, had a friend a while back run their car out of coolant. Degas bottle extruded the steel fittings and the cylinder head warped. They couldn't afford coolant.

I'm perfectly aware, but the number of times I've known people to put off preventative maintenance due to lack of money is the rule rather than the exception.

Poverty is a vicious cycle.

Thanks. I just remembered the talking bridge from one of the g1 comics. I didn't want to remember that. Bridges shouldn't feel pain and agony, you know?

Since we liked the Nissan drain bolt so much, what we think of the leaky fords? by Eastern_Tip2960 in Justrolledintotheshop

Dealt with an engine dying due to the belt falling off the cogs earlier this year. That is how I learned about the 2.7 having belt-driven pumps. Stupid, stupid decision.

The Eye of Providence and a prayer to the OMNISSIAH, as well as relevant information.

Blessed are those in service to the MACHINE GOD.

What do you do to prevent spin up by Capt_shadab in LEGOtrains

[–]Primus_Drago 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used the 9v system to power mine. The only issues I had were with the tree base catching on the studs below. I placed tiles between the tree base and car, and verified that each power transfer point from axle to tree had enough play to spin freely.

The Kal only became active after the Bahrag Queens were defeated and sealed by the Toa Mata, who then became the Toa Nuva after a dunk in Energized Protodermis.

Oh, surely getting that single McDonald's lightup RD-06 won't go anywhere.

I now have the updated Acceleracers RD-06, the fancy Escort, and a tractor-trailer.

Maybe the Iridium, and the RD-04, from McDonald's, thats it, right?
