A few people are experiencing problems with the messaging service. I'm reluctant to upgrade the software because of all the problems it can cause. 

 

I'll email you direct, Oz.

I've had the Bandai Rivet Boy on my to do list for a while. I finally got the chance to build a version. The original is a fast little wind up that scoots across the floor throwing out a shower of sparks. Mine's a slower old fellow with a battery motor and a simple light effect. The paddle foot design made a pleasant change. I took my eye off the scale and it ended up rather larger than I intended and printing took ages. 

 

This kit doesn't seem to feature in that book of classic Japanese robots - a pity, because it's superb.
