Thanx man. What's really cool about the part names is that if you look them up, they're totally authentic. They are the actual part names/numbers!

Also, just to settle the little, "which is harder, animation or building a robot?" What needs to be understood is that they are both very difficult and there is A TON of work that goes into both. I believe that they are pretty much equally difficult, just in different ways. btw, i am on both our animation and mechanical teams and do about an equal percentage of work on both, (many many hrs.) so I'm not commenting on anything that i do not have some experience with.

Lastly, remember what this thread is about: 45's 2003 animation, not any other animation, robot, or views on which is harder etc. Please start a new thread if you'd like to discuss any of those other things.

Thank you
