Heh. TBH, one of my crowning achievements (which dates back to around when I was Micah’s age – like, 14 or so) has been my Spaceman Skiffs (Calvin & Hobbes pun totally intended!)

… if you think you need to link Spaceman Spiff (or Skiff) or what Calvin and Hobbes is … I have to seriously consider our friendship or be associated with this LUG in any manner.

Lulz. It’s my absolute favorite thing on the forums. Even more than the LEGO stormtroopers beating a dead horse about “tunnels with curves” (I’ll let you explore to figure out where that inside joke came from, if you’re so inclined…)

… Pittsburgh Inclined? ?

So what is the maximum number of occupants that a Vic Viper can have? If so, can the cockpit or occupancy area accommodate many dozens in multiple structures inside this area?

Can the cockpit be taller than the single dorsal tail?

Can the cockpit area exceed the boundaries of the dual forward prongs?

Hopefully I could help –

I don’t think there’s officially a maximum number of occupants, but given it’s a ‘starfighter’ that generally implies 1-2 minifigs.

Th cockpit I think has to be shorter than the dorsal fin, which is sometimes also called the BAF – big ass fin. as many people tend to make it really small 😉

The cockpit area definitely should not be longer than the forward prongs… otherwise they wouldn’t be forward prongs 😉

looking forward to seeing what you guys do 🙂

I’m not sure if we’ve met, but I was at brickfair, va 2016 and you were probably there. I’m a big fan of your work, MOCs and charitable. Thanks for connecting. I look forward to next time you pass through town.

Hey Josh – I believe you are correct, I don’t think we officially meet, though BFVA is so huge I’m not surprised we didn’t cross paths… though disappointed Micah didn’t introduce us! Yeah hopefully I’ll be able to sneak across the border for some fun 🙂

Wait… did I just rope myself into a situation where I’ll be extremely ashamed of my lack of skills in the presence of an expert?? O_O

Aaaand… I love when the emoji get all ginormous when someone quotes them!!

Yes… yes you did. MUAHAHAHA
Though if we need an expert, we gotta bring Micah…
… speaking which, I totally sent him a picture of the ginormous emoji cause I also thought it was hilarious 😀

You and I met very briefly in Chicago in 2016, you asked me if my GBC module (Powerhouse) was named after the jazz tune.

The big Q3 meeting is tomorrow, although I’m guessing you won’t be around for that.

Hey Ben! I remember you and the build 🙂
Great GBC, and now I have the song stuck in my head lol!

Yeah today was a bit of late notice, but maybe some other time!

You’re never too young for Frog Pods!

You’re “for Toronto, Canada”, eh?

I’m against it. Ever since that jag in a Philadelphia Flyers hat cut me off in traffic and nearly killed me. -_-

But yeah, next time you’re in the Burgh, we’ll have to build some frog pods, and hide them around town / at a brewery or three! (@hacim can’t have any, he’s still too young…)

I’m very Pro Toronto! 😉

That doesn’t sound like someone from Toronto 😛
Yeah we should definitely do some building next time I’m in town!
