Anyone here actually plays with LEGO as an adult (I am in mid 20s)? I always thought it would be kinda weird, but I got the Fortrex and a couple of other Nexo Knights sets recently and I played with them for many hours, having lots of fun. I don't know if it's autistic, but it surely helps me feel less stressed and lonely. Just collecting isn't fun for me and I don't have that big of a collection to actually make MOCs yet.

I've noticed lots of smaller pieces breaking on sets that I've had built for long periods of time (clips, grills, 1x1 bricks, axle spacers, mixel ball sockets). Pretty sure Lego changed how they made bricks sometime around 08-09, so pieces in general aren't as strong now.

That's fucking disappointing. I've been teetering on just getting minifigs for a long time since I enjoy collecting those. I'd usually spring for the whole sets so I could have some fun with bricks, but now I feel paranoid that I'll break em by just using them

Don't worry - minifigures also crack, on the sides of the torso and the arms. Just let them sit and they'll break eventually.

it was hard for me to say how old the pieces were but probably the oldest pieces in my collection would be from about 2007 or so, it was just extremely weird to me that the only ones that seemed to break were the reddish brown ones with rare exceptions

i did a lot of googling at the time and even posted here, but mostly i got anons who told me to stop shoving them up my asshole, so i never really got an answer

Yes, but it kinda has to be to accommodate the combination. The Batcycle slides in through the back and the Bat-Tank and Batmobile lock together there as well. It's not ideal, but not a dealbreaker imo.

It does look a little more filled-in though when the Batcycle is docked and the boosters are folded down to lock the cycle into place.

I wouldn't suggest doing it in public, but don't let anyone take that fun away from you. I'd suggest both making mocs and playing with them for extra immersion.

Kind of a long shot, but maybe you can look out for local LUGs. From what i gather they sometimes have bigger collaborative projects with parts being sold off afterwards and swapmeets .etc. Maybe you can find fellow Mars maniacs that way specializing in that sweet sand coloured booty.

Can someone explain the "vehicleshit" may may to me here?

Does it refer to just the overpriced licensed vehicle sets primarily from batman and star wars or is there just a general dislike for vehicles in this threads?

Is it that cars and ships arent the most innovative things to build? Is scenery or big creatures preferred?

I just dont understand the huge hate for vehicles, I personally think trucks can be cool and unique, as well as spaceships with cool interior like a command bridge.

Is there something I'm missing here?
>>
>>6347805
Like 80% of Chima, Ninjago, and liscenced boy sets are all vehicles. True, there is a great deal of variety, but it just chokes up the roster for any other type of sets. And it just seems like more effort in general goes into vehicles than the actual building/castle/whatever sets. Once in a blue moon yoy get a stellar building like the Ninjago tower but more ofter than not it's just some shitty little diorama made up of broken apart segments or a vehicle that's twice as big as the building.
>>
>>6347805
Basically, sets aimed at the boy market that include vehicles sell better than sets without vehicles.

This upsets the manchild because he feels Lego should exclusively produce modular buildings staffed with waifigs.
>>
Will we get more TLJ leaks?
Also,I just saw PotC:DMTNT and I'm very dissapointed that Lego didn't make more sets based on it,they could've made the wave like this:

-The Black Pearl
-Small set based on the final battle
-Bank robbery

>Pretty sure Lego changed how they made bricks sometime around 08-09, so pieces in general aren't as strong now.

Lego did tons of subtle changes to the bricks so they use less plastic like thinner walls with the clutch point being reduced to those nubs on the sides and round edges on top of the studs.
They also switched to a different style of plastic to keep the costs down and instead of moulding the bricks in solid colors they use translucent plastic pellets with color pigments added to them.

However, this let to the overall quality of the bricks go down the drain with the most common breaking bricks being anything one stud wide, minifig heels (amusingly, this doesn't seem to happen to the dual-injected or CMF ones since they are made in China of cheaper, softer plastic), elbows and torso sides, Technic axle connectors and clips.
The last one is especially horrible whenever they are made out of translucent polycarbonate since it's actually too brittle for this kind of shit and you can actually see how the cracks grow in them.

If a minifig cracks by doing something it's designed for then something is seriously wrong with the product.

the rat i miss was so smart. He was more like a dog or a monkey. Extremely smart and attached to me.
He could run to me when i called him no matter how far he was.
He would use random room objects like books or furniture to run to me and it looked like 3D action platformer.
I had dog and cat and many other animals but nobody was as cool as that rat.

LEPINBRICKS is the store I ordered my Parisian Restaurant from. I've also heard H&H Co. is a good store, from /pbbg/. You'll get better answers from them on this kind of thing probably, I only have the one chink set.

Took about 2-3 weeks to ship, I think? The first week of that was just processing.

Quality on the bricks is pretty good. Expect a couple pieces (plates mostly) to be a little bit warped. Anything with articulation (turntables, hinges) is shit. And if you get something with a baseplate, use an authentic LEGO one to build it on. It comes terribly warped, which CAN be fixed, but isn't really worth the effort or time keeping it compressed under a stack of books or weights, IMO.

Figures aren't great on the printing or the clutch, and come completely disassembled. One of mine is missing a hand because the wrist opening is too small.

I'm the initial guy you replyed to, not the second guy. I get it shouldn't crack, and I'm sorry, but it's a little disingenuous to say that all our minifigures will crack eventually when the one you're showing has extra stress induced by the sitting/holding the handlebars combo. Again, it shouldn't crack at all and I'm disappointed with Lego's dip in quality, but that minifig specifically broke because of how you had him. You're making it sound like they'll crack under the stress of their own body parts holding together but that's not the case. Until we have anons with this exact issue, don't use your example because it's not the same.

Also, yes, the body is being tugged forward by the hands because they're latched on to the handles. The legs are doing the same to the seat. The torso is being pulled one way while the legs are fastened tightly down. It's barely noticable but the pieces are bending/stressing parts. It's like when you put a spear in both of a minifigs hands and the arms bow outward ever so slightly when both the hands get a grip on it.

I think all rat owners will agree with this.

>>6348037
>Are rats really that good/affectionate pets?
Rats are the bro-est animals you can imagine. The only downside is that they don't like to be locked in a cage, so if you have to lock them up at night, be sure to get an enclosure that won't allow them to make noise, or they WILL figure out how to make the most annoying noise possible and bang on it all night until you let them back out to play.

>Extremely intelligent in problem-solving ways, far beyond dogs and cats

>Likes to ride around on your shoulder, in a pocket, or peeking out of your shirt collar wherever you go

>Easy to entertain. When we had a rat we would build a maze out of VHS tapes, and our rat would have lots of fun running it, memorizing it, and then running back to his cage to grab some food to stash in his favorite rooms within the maze. The next day, just remake the maze and he gets to learn a whole new route. Also fun when you change just one or two things in the maze and see him run into an unexpected dead-end and quickly puzzle out a solution.

>Very affectionate, loves hugs, kisses, wrestling, snuggles. Mine used to sleep with me whenever I took a nap.

I've heard female rats aren't as social as males. I think most people recommend a male for your first rat because of this.

They like to hoard food and chew on things, so you need to make sure they have appropriate outlets for these behaviors (mine once stashed a piece of food where I couldn't see it and attracted bugs). If you're willing to accommodate them, they are in my opinion fantastic pets, and I say that as someone who's had cats, dogs, fish, lizards, a lovebird, and a rooster as indoor pets.

One more story: he didn't like to be locked in his cage at night, so after a while he figured out what time he got locked up and started hiding under the refrigerator. The first night I was able to lure him out with a treat.

The second night he managed to get the treat out of my hand and get back under the refrigerator, so I had to leave him out of his cage that night. After that I had to start shaking up his lock-up time so he wouldn't be able to predict when he was getting caged, because he no longer fell for the treat trick.

All the colors of torsos have their own bags (red and dark red share a bag, all the shades of green share a bag, etc.). Legs are divided into plain legs+hips connections, individual pieces (unattached legs and hips), printed legs+hips, short legs, dress slopes, and nonstandard (octopus lower half, pirate pegleg, faun hooves, etc.).

There's also a drawer with a bunch of assembled in-use minifigs.

I don't take anything apart unless I plan on using it for something else because even if you do it "correctly", popping arms and hands in and out does stress the pieces. Those are just incomplete figures in the bag.

Forgot to mention I also have another bag that's subdivided into Arms (some with hands), Hands (no arms), Printed Arms, and Nonstandard Arms (flippers, basketball arms, etc.).

>>6348032
I don't know, but keep in mind that the centre of technic brick holes are ever so slightly higher that that of bricks with stud on the side. So when you put a tile on a technicpin with stud in a technic brick, putting something on top of the technic brick that overhangs the snotted tile will technically be out of system.
If you have no idea what i'm talking about check out Jamie Bernards pdf or ppt called "stressing the elements".
Look up the official measurements if you haven't already, i doubt people are going to calculate that so quickly.

Anyone buy Creator sets specifically for one of the alternate builds? I want to pick up Island Adventures but I don't really care about the main build (the plane), I just really like that beach hut/house alt.

It's kind of a melting pot. The gang is comprised of criminals that were independent operators formed by an accountant (the man in the middle with the vest and briefcase) who used to cook the books for the local mob. He got more ambitious and set the old mob up for failure and swooped in during the struggle for power.

I got one of these and did basically the same thing you did, but as I was sorting my bulk collection, I ended up with so many legs and torsos that ran out of room for accessories and neck/waist stuff.

do u have an advice on buy lego minifigs? i tried to feel whats inside but i always get it wrong. also the bag is too thick to do so. also i buy them in malls and they have these huge plastic thingies to protect them from theft and its hard to feel whats inside. i tired bump codes but got it all wrong. should i just buy them in random like they want us to?
>>
>>6349237
Go to a different store where you can feel them easier. And just get better at feeling them. Look up a feel guide and feel for specific parts
>>
>>6349237
That sucks. I'm very lucky to have a toy shop where the employees know i'm a collector and let me feel the bags, and even offer to check them for me and set any aside that I'm looking for. I can't think of any figures in the recent series that are totally worthless, so if you do end up having to buy them at random I'm sure you'll still get something decent.

Literally nothing else than git gud. Oh, and find somewhere you can actually feel the bags. Last resort is to just buy the minifigs you want on bricklink, atleast that's better than buying random packs.

They also have a minifigure swap behind a glass counter where you can swap any collectible minifig for any other one 1 for 1, I've found all kinds of cool minifigs from earlier series there.

what's wrong with it?
Seems like a decent enough, if a bit simple, 90
s lego rendition of spacehamurger.

>>6349279
I modify them heavily myself but i'm glad they exist. They come with most nice and handy parts for vehicles in quite consistent colourschemes and introduced a bunch of new parts.
I agree the excessive stickering can be a bit odd, but most it can be left out until you have a project that makes better use out of them. I really wished some parts were printed though, like the stripes on the 1969 Camaro.
Thanks for reminding me i should get that gt40 set.

Collecting something just because it's a store exclusive is silly to me. Just build what you like.

You're not crazy. There was a one-page feature in one of the club magazines about a robot factory where three wacky robots were working on making a fourth (the one in your pic). The other ones were:
One with one of the LoM aero tube joints for a head.
One with metal detectors for arms
One that had minifig legs lammed into the 1x2 end of those old laser cannons for arms.
I'd go find my old issues to get a scan, but they're in storage rn.

>handle clips shoved into vent piece isnt illegal?
If you're wondering if something is legal, first ask yourself this:

>Is the connection putting an unacceptable amount of stress on the parts that will cause them to weaken over time if left in that configuration?

If the answer is "no", then it's probably not an illegal connection.

>>6350589
It doesn't stress any pieces as far as I know
>>
>>6350595
How the fuck should I know the stressing level of some tiny pieces of ABS plastic? especially whatever weird formula of it they are using today that causes pieces to crack and break if a dust mote lands on them on your shelf?

Is there like, a database out there somewhere? whitepapers maybe? Can we get an engineer in here?

I kid, but seriously, just seems like something that would cause a minor shitstorm here depending on time of day it was posted and caliber of posters available.

They should keep the sets around longer and just change up the line up when there's a new ship imo. One of the reasons I've never bought a Star Wars set is because I know they'll just come out with a better version down the road, and then one that makes that one look like garbage the year after.

Let's take a look at the five Millenium Falcon sets (all the ones big enough to hold minifigs) shall we?

7190, released 2000: the first Falcon released, shit design, large rounded pieces instead of the sloped plates now standard
4504, released 2003: Better representation of the source material based on the building style.
10179, released 2007: Ultimate Collectors Series, out of the realm of MANY kids
7965, released 2011: 8 years since last regular set, so the previous would have been retired for 3+ years, and there were plenty of new parts and building techniques to justify this one
75105, released 2015: Justifiable through a new movie, and a new cast of characters that are on the ship.

I hate Lego Star Wars as much as the next guy, but releasing new models of the same thing is NOT one of the problems the theme has

Just delete it man. Another thread on /toy/ went into oblivion because of you.

Is the glorious faggot anon who made a hot dog stand instead of looking at gay porn still have those pics handy?
Of the hot dog stand, I mean.
I forgot to save them.

I'm gonna try that out. I was looking for the Classic Batmobile the other day, but it didn't occur to me to look for the Model A.

True, but the latest two are almost carbon copies of each other, save for color differences.

most of the generals on /toy/ hardly hit image limit

It's on page seven and past the bump limit, close enough.

At least they waited until 140 instead of trying the shit at 115 like last week.

I don't unfortunately. I have some acrylic cases from the container store but It would take like 3-4 to display them and I just don't have the space for that.

His phone auto corrected the Danishblokken. It's just a catch all term for Lego.

except for /lg/.

We can easily hit image limit. I guess that's because there are a lot of mocs to post which eat up image slots.

I just got Silent Mary and it's pretty fucking GOAT.

No doubt we'll get a bank robbery scene and some set based on the trident but I can't imagine much else they'd make into sets. I think a Dying Gull ship set would be pretty funny though.

I'd absolutely kill for a Flying Dutchman with the same detail.

PotC Black Pearl and Queen Anne's Revenge relaunch when?

And I'd still pay double for it.

Is pic related a good set? I do not own a proper Boba Fett yet, and this seems appropriate, plus the carbonite frozen Solo is a plus.

But there's also the newest Desert Skiff Escape set, which comes with a slightly different Boba (yellow hands). Costs a bit more but delivers Chewbacca.

Question is: which one should I pick?

You'll probably get more replies in the current thread.

There will be a million sets with Chewie, forever.
The carbonite set has an ugnaught and frozen han, neither of which will be seen again for a while.

Desert skiff is also a vehicle if you're into that

I keep some of it in an old tool case, legs in one thing hair pieces in an other, etc, but I ran out of room and now I'm keeping some of them in a cardboard tube that held oatmeal once.
