It's from the new Speed Racer sets.

I think it's somewhere else; I just can't recall...

Looks nice, on what vehicle did you based this on?

I don't think he based it on ANY vehicle, he just made it up. It does look AWESOME, and I love those claws!

Whats wrong with BTW? Its just a shortened form of "By the way".

I covered this in other posts as well. Spell things out. This is short form that is only really used on the internet and in North America. You won't walk into to school and say, "Bee Tee Double You, Jim I just... " Since we're global, abbreviations and short form should be avoided as much as possible. It also speaks about the writer’s ability to use the English Language properly. Feel free to use Lego, Star Wars, & globally recognized abbreviations such as: I.E., etc., EPII, SWU, USA, DNA, & UCS.

If it's on this list it should be avoided.

Feel free to use it in the CBox since it is an internet "Chat Box".

Okay, Rook thank you. I will not use abbreviations anymore.

Yeah, who wants to write out 'Deoxyribonucleic fluid every time they have to refer to DNA?

Actually, it does look kind of like the scarab in HALO 2.

Got a link? For us none Halo players?

Not at the moment, but I'll try to find one.

I found pics, but it took me to a different site when I clicked on it; so how do I delete a post?

Why would you want to delete a post? The double posting rule isn't really enforced, but after you triple and quadruple post you start getting it.

But if you want to make a clean vest of it from the beginning I'd suggest using the 'Edit' button to edit your previous posts, thus removing the obstacle of worrying about double posting. I believe the rule is that you can DP if it's been 24 hours since you last posted.

Oh, I didn't know that, thanks for the tip.

Wow! I think that it's awesome! This should sum up what I am trying to say: :wuzzupbob:
