I don't understand why so many people find it hard to accept that K'Nex is using Micro pieces more than originals nowadays. There's over 10 million people in the world who build with K'Nex, and if they were all against Micro pieces, they wouldn't be making them.

Not bad for what you're capable of doing with VV track, though.

)-: Micro coasters stink. You should get screamin serpent sets.

coolknexcreations in reply to OwenmonApr 19, 2009. 6:51 AM

No they don't, they can do all sorts of loops and turns that screamin serpent could do.

Owenmon in reply to coolknexcreationsMay 5, 2009. 9:54 AM

Can they make 45 degree turns?

Now they can

Owenmon in reply to Tornado96Dec 31, 2009. 11:34 AM

Okay... But their still nowhere near as flexible as the Screamin' Serpent tracks.

Tornado96 in reply to OwenmonJan 2, 2010. 2:22 PM

Unluckily I only have an rr and an sm. But I have a lot of micro track

Is that all you know how to say? Learn some more words, add them to your vocabulary, and then post in a civilized manner. You are the failure here, Owen-mon-82397.

Owenmon in reply to Madrias357May 8, 2009. 8:26 PM

Is there something wrong with liking the word "Fail"? If not, please correct me. ;-)

lemonie in reply to OwenmonMay 11, 2009. 4:29 PM

He means that you have failed to communicate what is wrong with this. In posting a one-word comment you have simply said "I don't like this", in a word. Saying why you don't like it, or what is wrong with it would be more helpful / intelligent. L

Madrias357 in reply to lemonieMay 12, 2009. 9:50 PM

Thank you, Lemonie. You beat me to it. I was going to state that I had nothing wrong with the word Fail, but that there are other words, and better ways to explain why you don't like something or what the person did wrong in such a tremendous fashion that warrants stating "Fail" in all caps and bold.

Owenmon in reply to coolknexcreationsApr 19, 2009. 7:01 AM

Except, there much more flimsy, and you can't make smooth turns. And all you have to do for the supports is make boxes out of gray rods. And they don't look anywhere near realistic. Compare your coaster, to this one : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xWZNUvYmWyI See how realistic and smooth it is? Compared to yours, your coaster stinks -.- And the screamin serpent set comes with much more pieces. :-)

Well too bad man. If he likes it fine. I do too. If you want him to make some with the screamin serpent sets, buy him one... or two. _{(I hope you realize thats sarcasm)} Dood, you can get all $%&@#$*% at him for making something.

shadowninja31 in reply to shadowninja31Apr 20, 2009. 7:19 AM

Plus, don't compare a really good coaster to one that's still being developed.

Owenmon in reply to shadowninja31Apr 20, 2009. 9:45 AM

It's still being developed? O.o

shadowninja31 in reply to OwenmonApr 20, 2009. 12:00 PM
