Why was the last Castle series so awful like holy shit? I'm a sucker for Castle sets but the last one was so bad that it's impossible for me to even try defend it. Nearly no new pieces or concepts, just a recolor of the 2012 sets while being dumbed down to the max.

At least The Hobbit sets had some ok stuff but c'mon is it necessary to screw over the main Castle line that much? Does it sell terribly?

What are japanese space beetles? Is it a games workshop or a car thing?

>>6254565
I have a small street, but mostly build cars and rooms. Houses are really fun, but take up a lot of space. I now hardly ever use existing full minifigures. I already have a set bunch of favourite figures that populate my stuff. The only exceptions are a selection of every cmf wave, they often come with neat parts and novelty outfits.

>>6254597
Oh nice man, looking forward to see the physical thing. Such a wacky theme, i can understand how people dislike the set but i often don't get the hate. It was like a proto ninjago/nexo mashup theme mixed with juniors. While the sets were certainly odd designs, they definately communicated the potential fun of Lego to kids. I just have a time twisters spooky "train" that moves all kinds of stuff when you roll it i got for "sinterklaas" when i was little. Dusty and ugly, but still a warm place in my heart

Thanks man. Someone in these threads posted one of the pizza shop facades from one of the city sets, I was on speed at the time, 2 days later and that was my creation. I kind of have an issue where, if im on some kind of pill (speed or pain killers) and I see an idea trigger in these threads, I just start adding more and more details to shit. My cyberpunk prefab was another one like that. I also have a tendency to add weird little "story sections" to builds like this (pic related, a meeting of KEKists behind my prefab. Golden frog offers his subjects the ring or the apple.)

>>6254743

>>6254761
Thanks!
Do you mean for display or pictures? It can be a bit "cramped" to take pictures that are completely filled with lego unless you have an enormous setup. I didn't really do this with mine, but planning an easy to take apart and move around system like the modulars will probably make the illusion of being there more convincing while making it more space-efficient. (like being able to take a shot-reverseshot from both sides of the street, but removing one side for regular display)
One day to make all the walls of my roomdioramas connect via technic pins for example, so you can break whatever 4th wall you want to take a picture.
Ofcourse you can just slide loose walls next to eachother and line them up (i did that last minute with the rather plain wall behind Mr. Cleanly) but I'm a stickler for stability.

Thank you, friends. The only listing I could find with what I want (trans clear) was from a German seller, who only wants about .30 USD for them, but his minimum buy is over 21 USD, and there's just no way.

In a way, I'm glad my initial experiences (this and others) have turned out very disappointing. At least I'm not in danger of getting addicted to it.

>>6254851
Have you used bricklink before? The fact that you mentioned USD makes me think you are american and struggling with the admittedly challenging interface. I really doubt these parts aren't sold in the usa.
If you're not familiar with it i'd look up some tutorials. Getting specific pieces like this can be incredibly cheap and cost-effective if you're building custom stuff. But you are right it can be very addicting. But it is also very fun.

>>6254851

I haven't used Bricklink before. I've tried and failed utterly.

The first time, I had the idea of trying to build a Super Sentai team (red, black, blue, yellow, green) using plain-colored (or as close as possible) torsos, legs, hands and race car helmets, and white arms and hips and black visors.

I couldn't figure out how to search for those items specifically: I kept getting either the entire catalog (of arms, torsos, whatever) or nothing at all.

I didn't want to just show up in the thread and ask someone to do my shopping for me or ask to be spoonfed the process for doing the search, but the informational stuff I could find came in overwhealming (for me) masses of information, so I just gave up and bought sets of Ninjago "rangers" instead.

I haven't seen it in hand, so I could be mistaken.

I was more iffy about the payment process, myself. Every store can be a little different and really not a huge fan of Paypal. I can almost understand people wanting to pay more for figures from Amazon. Direct pay and if you can get it Prime the free expedited shipping can even sometimes make up for price differences. Sometimes.

I prefer to buy direct from Lego.com whenever possible, and for a lot of items that's perfectly doable with Bricks and Pieces, but I price check between it and bricklink. You might be surprised how much certain parts sell cheaper on bricklink than to get them right from Lego. Or maybe not! At any rate the payment IS more straightforward and in my experience Lego has kickass customer service.

It's just a good idea to remember you have options.

Much as I love leaving out displays or figs they can be a pain in the ass to dust.

>-then you make a wanted list

I think this is where I'm falling down: I can't locate specific parts to put in my want list because I don't know what they're called.

>>6254914
Have you tried looking up sets that have those parts?

>>6254917
Huh, never thought of it that way. I'll try that.

The gist of it is this:
-you make an account with your information
-then you make a wanted list
-you can use the catalog to search for pretty much every piece ever created and wich colours it comes in
-on the page of whatever part you want click "add to wanted list" (you can then choose the amount you need if you want. You can also choose the colour you want, but make sure it exists since you can manually put a piece in your wanted list in a colour even if it doesn't exist in that colour)
-once you have a wanted list with all the pieces you need you can “search by wantedlist”
-it’ll search all the people that sell pieces on bricklink, and show you what people have the pieces in your wantedlist
-These are all different people and stores mind you. Always read their terms and splash page to see if they have a minimum buy or how they calculate prices, how they ship stuff and what payment options they use etc.
-the addicting part is you can also browse whatever it is that seller has in store.
>you're paying for shipping anyway right?
>5 hours and 40 bucks worth of hats later...
-once you have have your cart full you finish up payment and shipping options
-your bricklink account has a "orders" page where you can see all your orders and what the seller is doing right now (pending, processing, packed, shipped) Eventually they will send an invoice, only then do you pay for it.
-Once you've paid, you go back the orders page and click the "paid" box so the seller can check and send your crack
-????
-POVERTY
-but also AWESOME KLOCKI

>>6254914
I understand.
The way i did it is like this anon said >>6254917

If you remember what set it came in, look up the set and browse through its "inventory" to see all the pieces it came with.
But if i were you i'd also just take a time to look at all the parts subcategories in the catalog.
Just click on them and give them a quick scroll to sort of get the logic of the taxonomy.

That is true. That's why I have a glass case for most of mine. I'm looking for another one so I have more room to store my minifigures.

>>6254883
>torso and legs in matching colors
>white hips

I'm not sure this is a good idea anon, it will look like thong underwear or a diaper

but anyway, example of searching for helmet visors in black:

>on main page search for 'visor'
>click on 'part' tab
>scroll down to what you want, it's listed as Minifig, Visor Standard
>then you're at this page: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=2447&name=Minifig,%20Visor%20Standard&category=%5BMinifig,%20Headgear%20Accessory%5D#T=C
>click on the black entry at top of list
>seller location: N.America, minimum qty. 5, click search

or you could start building wanted list with that item.

>>6254928
>I'm not sure this is a good idea anon, it will look like thong underwear or a diaper

You've got a point there. Hmmm. Maybe same torso and hips with white arms and legs?

Anyone feel like mocking this up in LDD for me?

I'm starting to think the whole torso and legs should just be one color. But I don't want them to just look like space suits.

searching for 'white hips _____ legs' gets you whatever colors, too.

same for torsos and arms assembly, though they'll probably come with yellow hands

fucking hell how many capthas do I need to solve to post on this fucking site

>>6254928
I actually searched a Speed Champions set because I was pretty sure the minifig would have the exact pieces I wanted.

I was right!

Already got the right colors of helmets, visors, hands and arms in my want list. Now I guess I'll search for hips/legs assemblies in single colors. Easier and lest thongy/diapery.

The thing that's really confounding me now is what made me ragequit last time: The torsos.

If I just search for red torsos, it comes up with some torsos that are molded in red, but a lot of ones that may or may not have some red in the printing. Why would it have a blue suit front torso in my search? What am I doing wrong?

You don't want a "red torso"
You want a "Torso plain" in the red colour.
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?id=1710#T=C
Same with arms.

>>6254951
I think you're being a bit too picky on how deep you want BrickLink to filter for you. If you type "red torso" in the search, and go to the "Parts" tab, the majority of the results are going to be red plastic, with various prints. The first 10 results contain Red torso/arms/hands, Red torso/arms+yellow/white/black hands. I'm not sure what trouble you're having.

>>6254951
go to catalog
then color guid
click the number under the "parts" vertical axis
then minifig torso assembly

then you only get the pieces in that exact colour of whatever category of parts

if you just search "red" it'll look for any part that has the word red in them

Thanks for the help! Looks like the link in >>6254962 was what I needed. I appreciate it! Now my want list is complete!

So I found a seller in the US with a .50 minimum buy who has a bunch of pieces I want. How do I keep from buying doubles? Do they disappear from my want list? Do I make my own list and mark them off as I go?

>>6254986
You have to manually type in the quantity of what you want in his store and add it to your cart.

>>6254991
Right. I meant when I go to other stores, will it show that I've already gotten some from a previous store?

Wow, that Auto-Find was really useful! The most pieces were in Poland, and for just above the seller's min buy amount!

Now I guess I should ask: Any accessories you'd add to make these guys more Rangery? Guns? Swords? I was thinking of trying to get some of those neck add-ons that add a stud on their back. Not sure what I'd do with it, though. Also thinking about trying to get some of that thin fabric and making them scarves like some Super Sentai have had in the past. Maybe that could be the other white element in their outfits.

>>6254999
Out of random curiosity, what's the story with the pink hair fig? The ID badge on the pants has piqued my interest in whether she's designed for a specific intent or just built out of random parts pulled out of your bin?

>>6255024
No real story, just random parts thrown together. Bricklink impulse buys for the most part.

>>6255039
Nothing wrong with random. Random sometimes lends itself to interesting character backgrounds.

I haven't built a spaceship in ages. A while ago i saw the a-wing vs darthvader set marked down to 69yuros, but made a large bricklink order instead. That order included two large airpressure launchers that i might use as afterburners though.

So how many eyes have you collected /lg/?

The majority of my lego collection comes from a 44gal trash can full that I bought from the parents of a literal autist.

I'm currently going through the figs and such from it, and the number of torsos missing one or both arms makes me almost wish I didn't get it for next to nothing.

maybe it's just me but it feels like it's getting slower. At least, the volunteer-run parts, like indexing of new parts.

Is there a good way to buy this guy in bulk?

I want to army build with the torso/legs but don't want to buy one fig at a time and no stores on Bricklink have him or the pieces in bulk. Can't find any knockoffs on Aliexpress, etc., that isn't for the whole group of 8, and aside from the pants on Gamora and Drax I don't need the parts.

>>6255915
Oh wait, no. That might for all the Guardians. That listing is misleading. Disregard. Sorry.

Is this some sort of rare piece? Has it been used the past couple years?

>>6256083
I don't want to belittle your plans, but I'd work on the actual MOC first before buying figs for it
But I also like little guys as more set dressing than anything

>>6256135
They are Maxifig hands from the old 1970s Homemaker-style sets. Only available in yellow (most common), red (uncommon), and light gray (fairly not common).

There are two subtypes, one with round holes (can't fit bars) and one with hexagon holes (can fit bars).

The towball is the same size as a Mixel towball.

>>6256012
You should give her the forbidden power on the black shield on her other hand, I like your idea of using the cage parts to improve the bike though, I might see what I can do to mine later.

>>6256141
Not him but I have been curious about them as well
Is there a reason they don't use them anymore, especially with all the new mixel stuff? My first thought is that they aren't stable

>>6256146
My guess is that by this point they already buried the molds to make them.

i'm running out of space on my shelf of interesting items...

that's cool as shit i wanna build it

>>6256146
>>6256152
>My guess is that by this point they already buried the molds to make them.
Probably this. A lot of parts that are "stable" haven't been made in decades because they literally buried the molds. At some point the Homemaker line ended, TLG didn't see the point in continuing to pay maintenance costs on a mold they didn't plan on using again, so that was the end of it.

You are absolutely right that they're very useful with Mixel stuff, but now that the new 2L bar with towball exists, they aren't quite as special.

They're still really nice for their ability to form a 1-stud connection with a towball, though.

>>6256176
>i'm running out of space on my shelf of interesting items...

Post your shelf of interesting items next?

>>6256183
A lot of my older sets like my Rock Raiders/Exo Force stuff is in storage so this is my shelf for now. I'm moving to a large aprtment soon so I should be able to display it all. The Silent Mary is cool as shit though.

>>6256176
I'm running out of shelf-space too.
Don't know what to do, since there's a few sets I want this year.

>>6256238
I'm recently coming out of a dark age. Clearing out my collection of Transformers and other robots.

I've got a bunch of sets I'm looking forward to putting together, but I already know I'll be running out of space as new sets come in.

I figure I'll rotate them out by disassembling and rebagging sets for storage and then either putting them back together once in a while or sorting the pieces all out for MOCs.

>>6256246
>I'm recently coming out of a dark age.
Ah ok. I never had a dark age, so I've amassed a lot over the years. My entire room is basically lego all across the walls. I've taken a part a lot of stuff though, and bagged it as you've mentioned. Really helps with space and it means I can clean the parts easily if they're caked in dust.

>>6256238
Same problem. I've got sets I've yet to build due to space. I think I've got room for one or two more CMF series in the case.

On the upside, at least the only Summer set I want to buy is the Scarecrow set. Hopefully the Ninjago Movie line will be lame.

>>6256249
I'm worried about that, actually. How DO you clean dusty Lego stuff?

>>6256255

Canned air, or good 'ol water. Obviously don't use the latter on pieces with stickers.

>>6256255
I dust it, and keep some of my stuff in glass cases (slowly fazing out my old shelves for glass ones).
Recently I took apart three of my modular sets, I plan on cleaning them because the dust was basically stuck to the plastic.
>>6256256
Could you expand on canned air? Haven't heard of that.

>>6256257
It's just a can of compressed gas. Usually used to complete electronic/computer components were things like Pledge or water wouldn't be prudent.

*clean, not complete.

>>6256255
cheap soft paintbrush.

>>6256180
I know that there were some in the first Hagrid's hut set so they didn't disappear that long ago, relatively speaking.

Are https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=50986#T=C and https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=10312&idColor=110#T=C&C=110 the same? Or the same size?

>>6256312
The former is transparent-only, while the latter is only opaque orange. The ends are different, too.

>>6256168
Which set from DBZ could we have?
(If yhey do this, i just hope the fig won't have a shitty manga style)

Would kill for a Jaco Space patroller fig

>>6253918
Kill it with fire. It's everything childlike and promising inverted.

NOOO! Now I'll never make my guy. I've been wanting to build this since the hip piece was first introduced. The build I mean. The concept is as old as Mixels. A small LEGO action figure for those who like the minifig heads but find the minifig bodies lackluster. All this time and hoping for nothing. I'm so damn pissed. He's pretty much the only thing I wanted to build with System.

>>6256176
>>6256246
Looks like you have your green Ninjago dragon on display. That is encouraging to me. I was worried it would just be too huge to fit on a shelf!

>>6256012
I moved the outermost claws to the middle clip so could angle the arms all the way down, and I later put the arms on mixel joints. I kinda also want to replace those tailpipes with legs that would fold down so that I could have it stand up, but I haven't figured something out with the head yet.

>>6255997
Pretty cool, I might steal this idea.

>>6256335
You should get your hands on some Technic figs.
They don't have minifig heads but they are pretty cool and posable.

You could also try changing your maxifig design.

>>6256335
Just go to bricklink

>>6256274
Wow, didn't realize they were in sets as recently as 2004.

>>6256335
>NOOO! Now I'll never make my guy.
I don't understand what's stopping you from ordering the parts on Bricklink.

>>6256351

I was planning on getting a few technic figs but they felt rigid and weird in the hand. Plus they lack the waist articulation and customizability of a built maxifig.

>>6256352
>>6256367

I would but I can't into e-purchaces. Btw I'm new to /lg/ itself.

Talks about merging generals in the meta thread. What would /lg/ become if we were mixed with the other building blocks?

>>6256431
The bins of mixed blocks you buy at garage sales and flea markets

>>6256431

Like that massive charity shop tub of bricks nobody wants to look through in case they find manky half-eaten sweets from the 1980s, dead earwigs or even pubes

>>6256431
It doesn't matter since the metathread is just a pacifier Hiro gave us so we'd shut up about the mods. It'll be deleted before he ever sees it.

>>6256431
Discontent until people decide to split up the generals again.

>>6256431
I'd rather have them seperate.
There are a lot of non lego posters in these threads, and these threads go crazy fast sometimes. If all nonlego stuff was consistently in one thread it might be a lot more lively in the pbbg and both of them at nice pacing. Some leeway is fine ofcourse, if someone uses legit lego in his megablox build in the pbbg who cares, if someone uses brickarms in his lego build, well, he might be a faggot but i'll let it slide.
Did g00k actually ever do anything for this board?

>>6256431
If anything the Mega Bloks general should be separated from /pbbg/ rather than /pbbg/ and /lg/ fused since MB are doing their own pretty distinct thing by now, with different kind of figures etc.

>>6256400
>>6256415

Yeah, I live in a crappy country. I'd rather not elaborate though.

>>6256452
most PBB brands are about as separate from lego minifigs as they are from megabloks figs. Both MB and Lego have their own distinct styles, whereas most small/cheap PBB brands are just a mess of stuff.
