*laughs*

Prallplatte is an oldie around here... we saw him first as 'crabfu' I think it was... and the steam-powered Leopard 1A4 chassis.

I had to laugh when he trotted out the I-sobot with the rag-hat, a-la-Larry of Arabia. I went out and got meself one of the I-sobots... nieces and nephew love to play with it whenever I go over to my sister's place.

Glad to see he's taking vehicle-adaptation to new heights.

Keep up the work, old chap!

Neat. And I see it has the same boiler as my newly acquired Wilesco D20 mod (on the left). Get's one to thinking. Mind you, I already have enough trouble, with my battery powered tanks.
