I made a little Can-Am race car. This car is completely based off the BRM P154 racing car. It was possibly one of my most fun race car builds that I have done. What do you guys think of it?

Anything with those trans-light blue limbs. I also like the floppy arm skeletons. The newer droid arm skeletons, bar armed skeletons, and ninjago skeletons are all good as well. I also like the CMF skeleton costume guys for death cultists.

Awesome response, this is what I've added to mine so far:

Ice bears/Vultures/Saber-tooth tigers/Mammoths as they're all undead

Gargoyles, Banshees, Specters & Zombies, Frankenstein monster (use them as abominations) from cm14

Spiders/Scorpions as Nerubians.

Ghosts from Ninjago

Good idea with the Ninjago skeletons + garmaddon would fit in quite well.

>>6062031

Does this mean they've worked out all that shit with Hasbro? I thought they couldn't sell StarWars minifigs on their own because they counted as action figures.

>>6062042
Maybe some court precedent was uncovered / created whereby an action figure has to have a certain number/type of points of articulation.

>>6062025
The turning arrow implies two-sided. Seems nice.

>>6062025
Seems like the back side of the head has a black stripe/eye mask.

>>6062050

Hasbro 3.75 Star Wars figs have the same amount of articulation as a lego fig

And realizing that just bummed me out

>>6062058
>The turning arrow implies two-sided. Seems nice.

Oh yeah you're right, didn't notice that. Interestingly the Nya you get this month also has a double sided face, but it isn't advertised anywhere

>>6062060
>Seems like the back side of the head has a black stripe/eye mask.

At first I thought so too, but it looks more like a light grey minifig hand inside the hood to me. Kind of weird...

with some reïnforcement by using a a 2x2 tile/plate and 1 x 2 brick for structural support.

Maybe even double up the technic steering mechanism on both top AND bottom for max structural stability if you have the space.

but it might require a wheel larger than you want for it to work.

>>6062156

now it looks like you need to have lateral movement to steer, rather than applying a torque to the bar

iono if that's a problem or not, though

>>6062381

Probably a red-brown lightsaber blade, pearl gold lightsaber handle on top, then a trans-blue Nexo Knight sword piece on top of that? Wouldn't look super close, but it's a start I guess.

>>6062064
>Hasbro 3.75 Star Wars figs have the same amount of articulation as a lego fig

The old POTF and POTF2 SW figs had only 5 points of articulation. Don't the modern cheap SW figs have the same?

Lego minifigs have 7 points of articulation.

Lego is more articulated than 3.75 SW figs.

>>6062384
The yellow bar in the back is the one that's moving, if that's what you mean.

>>6062448
But it's right up against the bar in front. Is there enough space between them to actually steer?

>>6062457
It should slide laterally without clearance. Although I've now made enough mistakes that I don't know anymore.

Something Star Wars inspired... I just got Director Krennic's black Shuttle.... I'm really stoked, it's an kick ass piece that reminds me of the Lamba Shuttle... I probably won't have time to start it tonight, but if this thread is around tomorrow, I'll be documenting my build progress.

I have about a hundred dollarydoos to spend on some plastic crack

I'm down to deciding between the caterham 620R or the krennic shuttle

thoughts?

>>6063119
>the krennic shuttle
30% of your krennic shuttle's price is because STAR WARS is written on the box
Be smart anon

>>6063119
what do you wanna do with it?

If you want to display it go with Caterham, since Krennics shuttle can only really be displayed in landing mode, which looks infinitely worse than flying mode.

If you just want bricks i think both are good, and krennics shuttle got really nice minifigs

>>6063127

I mean to buy either of them for displaying purposes. I know what you mean about the shuttle, but what's really stopping anyone from hanging it from the ceiling to show off it's flight mode?

>>6063130
>what's really stopping anyone from hanging it from the ceiling to show off it's flight mode?

Either the weight or the fear of it falling down. If you can deal with those problems you could definitely hang it from the ceiling

>>6063132
As long as it has strong enough support keeping it hanging it should be fine.

>>6063132

I have the sopwith camel and red baron models hanging from the ceiling on a couple of strings each for years now.

leaning towards the caterham now, it looks like a lot of fun to build it. the volkswagon beetle sure was fun to build too

>>6063283
Well it's a neato Batsuit variant only ever released in a DK book from 2012, it's bound to be worth something. Especially now with TLBM reinvigorating interest in Batsuit minifigs.

Can you get it and take pictures of the book? It's weird to see it in a different context.

Do I have to sell stuff to actually use the bricklink inventory?

>>6063303
Do you mean a wanted list?

>>6063304

Kind of like a wanted list, but It seems like sellers get to have an actual inventory of bricks and stuff, I was curious if I could just sign up for seller but not actually sell stuff, kind of have an inventory that no one else can see, like a back room type of deal.

>>6063313
I see, well, I only buy from Bricklink I don't sell, so any other anon who does sell can be more useful than me.

>>6063313
If you just want to track your stuff, there's probably a better site. Brickset or one of the others has a thing where you input your sets, it inventories the parts and spits out a list of what other sets you can build with what you have.

>>6063313


You can sign up as a seller and then lock your store, but I'm not sure if you continue to have access to inventory. But definitely what >>6063338 said is easier, Brickset is a great site for parting stuff out.

>>6063338

I looked at the online selection my country's main toy store has and most of the new sets suck ass. Star Wars has more than anything but it's mostly TFA wank, and ships as opposed to sets. The new themes aren't terribly exciting either

What should I get for myself? I used to love the old SW sets (Mos Eisley Cantina, Endor, anything with locales), Alpha Team, Res-Q and Adventurers. I've always fancied an industrial train set.

Also how hard is it to get Western sets these days? I only ever had the Sheriff's Lock-Up but dreamed of owning the rest

>>6063380
Depends on how much you're willing to pay. If you're willing to pay a lot, check out Bricklink, where you can get almost every old set. Might be very pricey though.
For recomendations for new set a price range would be helpful.

If you're looking for western sets, you're out of luck. The only ones which were produced after the classic western theme which you remember are Lone Ranger sets, which are most likely not in stores anymore (but again, would be available on Bricklink)

>>6063380
>Another whiner Star Wars fan

got excited for the nexo knights mini mechs

R8 my attempt, but keep in mind i limited myself to the pieces used to build one knights horse, so they could easily be modded if you have a knights hover horse

Serious question, anons. Why can't LEGO change its massively successful business model and line up of licensed and original themes to produce historical sets that appeal to only a handful of 30+ year old fans?
It's not fair. Why do they make these toys for fucking children instead of meeeeeeeeeeee.

>>6063399
Modulars.

>>6063403
>Insecurity because he collects kids toys so mentions one line for ages 16+

>>6063407
what

>>6063381
It doesn't look at all like a spaceship. It looks like something that broke off of a spaceship.

>>6063416
We collect kids toys. I don't see what the big deal is and why so many AFOLs can't come to terms with that.
>But expensive sets
Ask anyone who works at a Lego store. There are tons of well off kids who get these UCS and Expert sets for holidays or just because their parents think it's good for them.
>But I buy a lot
And so do other AFOLs, but they still don't spend as much (as an overall percentage) as they think. LEGO doesn't release the numbers, so we simply don't know.
TLG's mission is to produce quality toys for kids. As an AFOL, I'm fucking glad they do. I like silly non-cannon vehicles and playsets. I like goofy minifigs and puns.
If you want serious scale shit and historical accuracy, get into models. LEGO is a toy.

>>6063399
Because making toys for kids is about a trillion times more profitable than making toys for adults, and at a thousandth of the headache and hassle.

Ever been to Eurobricks? It's a great argument for why AFOLs should never be the intended market, except maybe the occasional modular or throwback like the Exosuit. Some of those guys are still bitching how they're not getting a real castle theme, bluhblubh nexo knighs are the worst thing ever all my nightmares are coming true

And Flama is a tranny. Enjoy your inevitable police station, anon.

>>6063427
Buddy all I did was recommend him something Lego makes marketed for adults.

Kids don't want detective's offices with real washing machine opening action, they want firefighters and police and vehicles in every set.

>>6063428

>>6063428
Agreed, Eurobricks is cancer + AIDS + Ebola. They can't even post leaks there.

>>6063427
We actually have a slight idea on what percentage we are of lego's sales. I remember mark stafford saying on eurobricks that while he couldn't give specific numbers we're approximately under the one percent mark.

>>6063381
>it's a weird shape and kinda ugly but in a good way

I really like it. Too pricy, though, I'll settle for building something similar one of these days.

Not bad, considering that cheapest complete Jestro on BL is 7€. Now, should I pull the trigger?

I did some heavy modifications, though - took a bunch of the blue from Benny's Spaceship x3 and spruced it up, and also built an extra "hyperspace booster" section that can be added in, or swapped for the troop section. I've got a squad of blue guys that ride in it now.

Either carefully plan stuff in Lego Digital Designer, purchase the specific parts required, and build it.

I guess I'll poke at this. I want to make [a house] so I need [Lego] bricks and assemble them like [a house]? Maybe you're over thinking it. If X and Z have to be different for some reason, change Z to [the steps of building a house]. Don't try and solve for anything with a great master plan. Just try what works. More like: If I want to build [a house] I should take the bricks I have and arrange them in a way that looks like [a house] to me. Or just buy a Lego set and follow the instructions.

1. the Double Rogue, twice as lovable, extra quiver and bow, unusually long neck

2. Dual Berettas Bananaman

3. a hiker, lost among these stone killers. He gets a cold weather hood. That's kind of lame, I'll think of something else to throw in.

4. the Devil, with a hand grenade in his pumpkin skull bucket. Let us pray for a happy accident.

Winners will be chosen randomly from list of email addresses. First one in 3-4 days I think, then every couple days until finished. First three get a choice of course.

Post your email for one entry on the list.

Stickers from ~2010 onwards seem to be of a much higher quality than those from even 2008.

I was planning on using ldd either way

Both are telling me to just do it but how do I avoid making a cube with a hole and calling it a house? How do I go visualising complex subjects?

Look at what other people do and make. Experiment. Lurk around various forums and sites and be inspired.

A house is just a cube with holes. It is perfectly alright to not think your first attempt is worth saving. Just keep building.

>>6063755
The stickers are top notch now. Unless you're mentally retarded, they're very easy to apply.
I personally don't get the "muh printed parts" thing

2 Bricklink orders came in today, tons of old space stuff.

Plus my application was accepted to work at the LEGO store, so I'm gonna start doing that on weekends as a second job.

Today was a good day.

I realized changing out the other pieces for the 1x6 POLICE brick made it look really boxy, so I moved the bottom grill back one stud to make the cab look a little more spherical. What do you guys think of this arrangement?

>>6063774
Putting the Detective's Office modular together really helped me visualize how to make more realistic-looking buildings.

I feel like this should get a pair of feeler arms where you put those mixel eyes. Kind of like crab or spider mandibles.

Personally I like the version here >>6063723 more, this one looks like it has a bit of an underbite.

That seems really sketchy. It's funny how they point out how many websites there are where we share our stuff and then go on to say they want to add another one to unite everyone. Seems kind of counterproductive. Also you pay 25$ for a brick and a torso? No thank you.

Glad Jang, J2G and Brickvault aren't part of this bullshit. they're the only LEGO Youtubers I actually watch

You might be right. I can't tell which way I like better.

I put some black caps on the tops of the rockets but I think I might take them back off.

Is that you, Kermit?

Btw, while we're talking about LEGO Youtubers, has anyone heard of this guy? His builds are quite nice and I feel like he doesn't get the views he deserves

>>6063934
No, I'm the real j2g!

>>6063927

At such a small scale that's pretty cool, but every single one of those builds has got to be incredibly fragile. That video in particular, he's got a lot of 1-stud connections.

But still, really cool, the thought process that goes into stuff like that has got to be complex.

>>6063927
>he doesn't get the views he deserves

Lol, just realised he had over 2 million views on this video. Guess he already got his views and I'm a retard who doesn't bother reading before posting

Making money is basically the dream. At some point everyone tries really hard to follow their dreams.
