Now, since the Netduino is compatible with many (or should I say… most) Arduino shields and kits… I also bought this kit [...]

I think they are still having Beta pains. Pretty laggy today. Got booted out once, and having troubles getting back in now. Also, Universe doesn’t tolerate dual-screen very well. My 2nd screen displays whatever Windows is doing, but it’s easy to move the mouse outside the Universe window… and then a click causes the game [...]

There is also a lever to push to cause the engine to “blow up”. The building instructions are decent. Not overly complex, but still kind of [...]

Set Review: 7623 Temple Escape – Indiana Jones
March 9th, 2009 · No Comments · Reviews
LEGO Indiana Jones Temple Escape The Good: Nice little biplane. The plane could be used in any City or Indiana Jones sets. The building instructions are well done. Not overly complex, but still kind of fun to build. There are some neat angles in the floor plan, and they use 1×4 Hinge bricks and 3×12 [...]
