January Challenges:
>None yet.
Got any ideas for January challenges? Give this post a reply!
>>5370472
Challenge idea:
Day after the party. Make a diorama of your characters hungover as shit and shocked at the things they did the night before at the new years party.
>>5370479
To add to this.
Bonus points if theres at LEAST one crashed vehicle, one unknown person in bed and one stolen tiger or other large animal locked in a room.
>>5370472
1st for /shitnationalcurrency/ lads
I went to target to see if they had the first order transporter but literally everything Lego was gone. I checked all over the store and there were no lego sets, not even the checkout polybags. Sad
>>5370490
So does that mean I can go to canada land with 5 grand of american freedomFUNbux in my pocket and live like a king for a while?
>>5370438
All the Luke Skywalker's look plain. There is nothing that discerns them from any other regular minifig.
Hopefully the new beard in TFA will help.
>>5370494
>tfw tried to buy mixels
>had to go to 3 different stores just to find 2 different packs.
>>5370496
Yes :(
>>5370496
No?
A LEGO set that costs 80 USD here would cost an equivalent amount in CDN, why do you think people complain about their sets being more expensive than ours? Just because our money is worth more than theirs doesn't mean something that is $80 USD here would be $80 CDN there.
Sup /lg/. I've been looking to build some sort of gunship crash or landing scene moc like pic related. My question is, which version of the gunship is the best?
>>5370502
I was more interested in things like the casinos, legal hookers and weed actually. No way in hell would I buy lego or warhammer shit or any of that in canuck land, I know for a fact they get raped on that shit.
>>5370472
>January challenge ideas
A bar for your minifigs to drink at for the new years party.
Loner alcoholics optional.
>>5370508
I like this idea so far.

>find out Beetle Bomb just spawns the legs around any person's actual legs and isn't unique to Lavaria

At least the other two powers were pretty cool.
>>5370553
Oh, nice
HAPPY EARLY SITH NEW YEAR!!!!!!!!!!
>>5370579
>Anakin can't handle a drink
No surprise there
>>5370583
Nah, hes crying over Padme.
>>5370586
Yeah, I figured as much. I meant "he always does this when he's drunk"
The hell is Watto doing
>>5370589
Holding his wiener, what do you think?
>>5370589
lol, he wasnt even supposed to be in the picture, but that fits perfectly.
And grievous is showing off his drinking skills.
>>5370564
>Beetle Bomb just spawns the legs around any person's actual legs
More like a hologram of it while they walk with their actual legs.
HAPPY NEW YEARS! MOTHERFUCKERS!
what the fuck am I going to do with one 12x24 green brick?
Happy new Year! it's 6:02 AM and i got up in 2016!
Ok, Klocki time! I visit neighbour town! Got this stuff with other "new year shopping". Not that much but im planning to buy bigger sets later, saving money for those knights and etc.
1) tiny star wars set. Mostly for 4 troopers so i can use them in any random situations.
2) My favorite trio of mixels from this series. Totally one of my favorite Maxes
3) And FINALLY! halloween minifigs. Surprisingly - rare Cheerleader and Vampire lady were first ones i got. Funny because i mostly wanted regular ones - gargoyles and flies for army building, but that's ok, my houses lacking of interesting female characters.
And she's done!
>>5370661
Spooky Girl has a housemate now! Zombie Cheerleader will be living with her from now on.
>>5370665
its the first time when she is not looking at the window because she's not alone anymore
>>5370670
Now you have to get a bear friend for her teddy.
fake skeleton guy will be Vampire lady's henchman. (his husband is in that coffin)
>>5370686
Either that or do what I did for my bb-8. Get him some pets. My bb-8 has a frog and a scorpion as a pet. He also wears a fez.
Anybody know which customizer/third party these are from? I got them on Bricklink 5 years ago and forgot the description.
>>5370704
Brickforge for the officers hat. Wish they did russian ones, I am planning on making a commissar fig....
Post robots
>>5370663
Might do a small posing dump while I'm here.
>>5370526
>model some building you know
here's model inspired by De Bazel in Amsterdam i posted here before. It's more loosely inspired by than a 1on1 model (there's too much detail for a small building to fit that's still doable in terms of cost)
Also futuristic space flavour because why not.
The bank piece was added later because De Bazel used to actually function as a bank for a while before it became an archive/exhibition space.
>>5370764
here's the interior,
not necessarily made for new year's eve but still quite festive.
>>5370503
I just got the 2013 version I believe.
I love this thing and it's the one in your picture but that one is a bit more modular and has some modded parts.
>>5370766
Where can i get that alien from?
>>5370769
collectable minifig series blindbag series 6
>>5370769
Its a collectable minifig. Forget what series, but he isnt too expensive.
2016 is tomorrow.

>>5370819
God damn it.
>>5370819
space travel with classic space factions (will never happen)
survival mode with reduced character mobility (maybe)
a version which is optimized so I can run it on more than absolute lowest settings
some kind of LEGO Racers throwback for the love of god
>>5370831
oh wait I'm thinking about Lego Worlds
hooray
>>5370740
>>5370479
>>This
Just ordered this from Amazon, looks pretty nice tbhonest.
>>5370831
How about a Lego Racers game that's much like Mario Cart. Imagine carts for Technic, System, Dumplo, and CBBS lines. With each one you can slightly modify them for various attributes, or just style. Also Transparent Orange Chainsaw = Blue Shell.
>>5370819
A fucking PC edition.
>>5370852
where you at? they arent showing up on amazon for me, im in america. Looking for any alternative in case the stores are sold out or dont stock early enough tomorrow.
>>5370865
Amazon UK m8.
>>5370872
fuck. god damned street date bullshit.
>>5370852
Worth it for that Boba, would go perfect with my Jango.
>>5370865
the last 4 sets and 5 microfighters arent until a bit after Jan 1st bro
What can i use as a flag staff?
Like, something a minifig can hold on to?
>>5370890
Now, see, no one has a fucking straight answer for any of this shit. Half are saying all the shit in the catalog is jan 1st, CMFs in jan, some say feb, speed champs in march, catalogue says first.
fucking hell, someone find an official source for an official release date, US.
>>5370900
I'm LBRI bro, I am the source
>>5370886
Pretty much the only reason I'm getting it. I ordered the galactic empire battle pack too, has a couple of cool figs.
>>5370903
well, catalog says jan 1st.

LEGO's Pirates III line is kind of uninspired next to this wave of the Enlightened stuff.
>>5370948
That's why you clean up before leaving the house.
If you showered, got in some clean clothes, decent shoes, washed your face and combed yor hair, would you have had the same feeling after passing the mirror? I think not.

>>5370932
One thing I realized, you could probably benefit from shortening the forearms, as they are now they're pretty lanky. Still, overall a very nice job. Clever job on the shoes.
>>5370974
I did clean up, it's just that my wardrobe could use an update, and I'm just fat so I wear typical fat people clothing like baggy shorts and shit.
>>5370472
So I used to have a pretty big lego collection when I was a kid. Had almost nothing but space stuff (ice planet, second gen space police and blacktron, spyrius(sp?) and knights. Fucking castles swords dragons and armor, fuck yeah. I spent many hours making all kinds of crazy high tech space knights...
Then I became an adult and did adult things like work and pay bills. After not even SEEING my lego collection for like 10 years my mom calls me up and asks me if I still want it or can she give it away to a friend's family with small children that recently lost everything in a house fire. I said sure, I'll never play with those again.
No big deal.
Now I have a 4 year old and we've been playing with lego together for about the past year and I've been buying pretty much nothing but City and Creator stuff, maybe half a dozen big pick a brick cups to get a good sized pile of basic blocks for building with...
And now there's Nexo Knights. Holy shit. It's everything my childhood collection was and MORE. I dropped about 100$ today buying a bunch of stuff from target cause they had em out a day early and I'm going to my local lego store tomorow to get more. I seriously haven't been this excited about lego in maybe 20 years.
Anyone else buying up all the nexo knight shit?
>>5370973
How about a fuck off HUGE CROCODILE BEING RODE BY INDIANS.

>>5370990
Doesn't appeal to me tbhonest, literally another Chima.
>>5370991
I like the skeleton villain dude better than the indians.
>>5370991
>>5370994
I mean seriously it's like Shocker traveled back in time and is fucking around with indians.
>>5370990
I'd definitely like to get as much as I can. Looks fun as hell.
>>5370990
>Anyone else buying up all the nexo knight shit?
I got Clay's Rumble Blade last weekend at Target, and it's great. Today I dropped by TRU because I had $10 in Bing Rewards and got the Fortrex. Reallllly tempted to go back and buy at least the Mecha Horse and a couple of Ultimate figure packs on Saturday.
>>5370987
>baggy shorts
Nigga STOP.
Get some good jeans and shoes that aren't for running. If you're a big guy 4 u then you really need to hit the big and tall stores because, no offense to anyone, but most clothes in stores are aimed at thin kids.
>>5370991
Jesus. These sets are way better than any thing Lego has put out last year.
>>5371011
>These sets are way better than any thing Lego has put out last year
Thats what happens when you dont have shareholders to answer to and dont give a fuck about morals. The IRL military sets some of these chinks make are pretty good as well. Also I have noticed they are making even more knock offs of star wars sets.
>>5370999
>that spear chucker

>>5368928

And now I'm working on one.
All the new stuff is up at shop@home.
>>5371040
And I love how many minifigs this thing can hold, considering its size.
>>5371042
>No Mixels
Whelp
>>5371029
I don't think China cares about being racist.
>>5371050
New Mixels are February
>>5370890
What is "a bit"? I neeed this X-wing microfighter. I cannot imagine why they would release just one microfighter on Jan 1.
>>5371074
Well, he might not be bullshitting us. They are NOT on the official lego shop, and several other sets are. Why the fuck would they wait to release the obi wan fighter, the carbon chamber, the microfighters and the droid escape shit? Fucking hell, eurofags got a chunk of this shit way before we did.....
>>5371029
quit shitposting on the internet, you have a country to run
>>5370968

>That Sasclutch
I love this figure and it's inquisitiveness
>>5370930
YEah Englihten really steped up their game. Aspecialy now when their product quality starts to be lego like.
>>5371010
Not all the sets, but I'm getting Fortrex, Mech, Infernox, Crusher, Lavaria, Clay, Aaron, and 6 x Macy
>>5371166
>6 x Macy
for what purpose
>>5370990
Just wanted to say that you sound exactly like me up until the giving away your collection, and welcome back to the game, anon!
Aaaaaaand now I'm back for a bit. Any of you know how I'm supposed to get these treads onto the gears, or does LDD not support that?
>>5371148
You're still the best guy around here when it comes to making girls, though.
>>5370948
The problem is not lego, it's your self perception and drive, remember the only constant is death.Use death as a reminder that you will always have choices, and the chance to change paths. Nothing in life is truly necessary except survival and personal growth/realization. The world around you is only mutually agreed achored perceptions (conditioned since birth). Be a fluid warrior in search of challenge(s) worthy of this mysterious universe and us lot of humans on a rock in a Sea of Awarenesses.
*shaman mode off
>>5371182
We get Lingonkart, Hugebricks (he's the OP!), E-Why, and Zemata visiting as well as several other fellows who've made much better stuff than I. I just ape them, and my stuff ain't even real yet! Check out their galleries for some real work.
You can get treads onto gears using a bar and double axle technic connector, and then using the Hinge tool to mangle everything else vaguely into place.
So THE GHOST from star wars rebels is now a RETIRED ship then.
FUCK. At least theres a few of them on ebay still going for retail. Also this explains why they released the two in one packs for a little bit and the microfighters version of it for Hera....
>>5371209
Oh yeah, and the heads you and I use are just copies of TKH's stuff! There's a lot of guys who build gals out there.
>>5371215
>So THE GHOST from star wars rebels is now a RETIRED ship then.
>
>FUCK.
It's been going on clearance all over the place this past Autumn.
>>5370930
Now THIS is podracing!
>>5371221
It was never on clearance around here, otherwise I would have bought it.
>>5371223
Lowest price I saw was $62 at Walmart. Passed because I only really wanted Hera and knew she was coming in the micro-fighter.
Is this a knockoff? The mouth doesn't look curved enough, but that could just be the angle of the pic.
>>5371230
>Vice Admiral Janeway was said to be the only being in the universe to have ever made Sheev Palpatine cry.

God, its the mini red wii nintendo club exploit all over again.
>>5371209
You mind getting a picture of those parts up, because I'm honestly not sure what ones you mean.
>>5371239
Don't you have to pay shipping for each one? And anyway, brick separators are surprisingly expensive.
>>5371238
Kek
>>5371243
Basically a lightsaber bar and pic related on the axle of the gear you're trying to attach treads to. After that you attach the other tread pieces via hinge tool.
The lightsaber bar can fit in the holes of the wide treads, and the treads can have 1x4+ tiles attached to them. Pretty useful.
>>5371246
I put one in my cart to see and it's like $7.83 shipped. Not really worth it for one figure IMO.
If it were exclusive maybe, but it's just the torso and helmet from 70311 and legs from 70310, which are the two cheapest sets. Those figures are going to be like $2-3 each on Bricklink when the stores there start stocking up, and based on previous minifigs you should be able to make your own by buying just those parts for much less than that.
>>5370767
I'm pretty sure judging by the cockpits on the one in the crash picture it's the original 2002 version. I think the original one is larger than the latter releases.
>>5371251
Thanks for clarifying, anon.
In case anyone asks, this is supposed to be another vehicle from the same work as that rig I made a couple threads back.
>>5370819
>>5370822
<---
Shop@home order is stuck at $74.96... four cents short of free shipping. If I get a single pick a brick part will that make my shipment delayed as opposed to just buying something else for cheap?
>>5370935
I wish Lego did a pirate slut like that...
Took anons advise a while ago to try and make some sort of prop or walkway, I like how it's going so far
Please ignore the gommie books.
>>5371291
Yes, because the PABs come directly from fucking Denmark, or whatever.
I made an order for PAB awhile back and it took me almost 6 weeks to get it.
>>5370852
Does Boba Fett still have a stupid flesh face still?
I'm currently trying to decide what my first lego for 2016 is. I'm leaning more towards ccbs star wars because I neglected it.
I did skip:
Mystery Machine
Tons of Dimensions
Hulkbuster
not sure if they were something with high replay ability for me.
>>5371301
Thats really cool man. What parts did you use to make that bangin sith chick there in the middle?
>>5371308
Honestly I have no fucking clue, 99% or my Lego I just bought last month through kijiji, I don't know what set the parts are from, I have everything from ninjago and starwars to city and castle all still unsorted, someone else might have to help us on that one.
>>5371314
Im definitely interested in her head, and the body im sure I can figure out by looking through bricklink.
>>5371316
If it helps it's also a double sided head
>>5371318
Will look into it. Its just odd to see a FEMALE figure with signs of violence on her face. I figure with lego and their strict "non-violence" bullshit, any damage to a female would be a no-no. One reason I like Macy. Bitch got a tooth knocked out and has visible scratches and scuffs on her face, but shes still kicking.
Huh, one of the captcha images was a custom lego train. Neat.
So I was thinking of building some Star Wars ships that haven't been made yet.
What's the general feet-to-studs ratio for minifig scale construction?
>>5371302
Thanks for the answer.
Decided to reshuffle what I was ordering slightly. Got all the exclusive NEXO sets so I don't have to bother going to Walmart/Target etc. Was going to get two of the Ultimate sets but removed those and got the TRU exclusive.
>>5371199
Look! Here comes Sting with your Pompous Faggot of 2016 Award.
>>5371320
The head is from Ann Lee, the chick in the Monster Fighters line.
The Dino Tracker chick CMF also has a busted up face btw.
>Buy order troops transport for gray parts and moc idea

Siigh
So, anyone know when bricklink will have a nexo knights section?
>>5371339
I'll take it off your hands for free :^)
>>5371348
I'd give it a week or so.
>>5371327
A minifig is basically 14 or 13 studs tall right?
>>5371157
>implying anybody cares about midway
I can't wait for this set. I really hope there's more arcade lego.
>>5371157
>Dimencions
Are those (ANY of those) out yet? I remember i was asking about Joker+Harley Quinn set back in August and people were saying that they will be released somewhere in winter.
I...honestly dont hear anything about lego D. and dont see them anywhere.
>>5371436
Yeah, they're out in plenty of places.
>>5371327
Wait, is there a 4-lom minifig?
Can /lg/ help me decide. Which one should I get Poe's X-wing or TFA Falcon?
>>5371299
Considering what Ninjago gets this year and what Castle did turn into there's a high chance that next Pirates line will look like that.
>>5371465
>help me decide
Just fucking buy them both.
>>5371472
tight budget, can only pick either one right now.
or which one should I buy first? I might be able to buy the other later.
>>5371332
Bro, sweet instrument.
>>5371452
Nope.
It's official; Nexo Knights is now on Bricklink.

The new buildable figures are on Amazon
now that 2015 is over, which was the best set of 2015?
>>5370503
2013 undeniably. I always had some stuff fall off the two other ones and the cockpit bubbles are much better than the JSF piece. But the TCW one isn´t that much different so if you can´t get the 2013 one get the 2008 one. 2002 doesn´t count.
>>5371465
Falcon is bigger and way nicer.
Anybody know a good way to army build Clones?
I bought a cheap China lot off Ebay so i'll report what they're like and if they're well enough i'll just buy the $20 18+ figure lot for Army building.

To get in on this debate I took the Incredible Cross sections book my relatives got me and made a moc up of a too scale snowspeeder. The speeder according to the book is 5.23 meters long which compared to Rey's speeder which is 3.37 meters makes the lego ones look more to scale than mine.
Anyone got an album to all the lewd lego?

Anyone else notice how it says "over 20 classic arcade games".
I'm thinking it's going to have ROMs of classic Midway games inside Lego Dimensions.
Also for anyone who wanted to pick some up, the US Target online store has buy 1 get 1 50% off on certain figure sets.
>>5371328
Tru exclusive? As in tru next knights exclusive? What is it? How do I find out what there exclusive stuff is? I tried googling but all I'm getting is all the basic stuff they have for sale...
I'm just getting back into Lego for the fiat time since I was a kid, so I don't know where to look.

I'm not seeing it on Toys R US and would rather use the money I have sitting in Paypal then a card.
I hear we're posting non-Lego sets in this thread now?
>>5370708

Yeah there's three store exclusives, I found out on Eurobricks. If you keep up with the threads there you will usually be pretty up to speed if you can handle their autism.
Anyway, the exclusives in wave 1 are:
The King's Mech - Walmart
Merlok's Library 2.0 - Target
Infernox captures the Queen - TRU
>>5371837
Is anything in general actually exclusive to the lego store? I want to know what sort of shit to look for when I go to my local one.
Mostly because I also know nothing about lego.
>>5371792
I'm thinking it may be Walmart, they have yet to add any new sets to their site.
>>5371843
The starter pack which is this month's free promo is exclusive to the LEGO store, and you should get it with any purchase. Otherwise, just some non-brick merchandise.

For those who don't wanna spend $60 on Takodana, Target is selling it for $50. Buy it now before the price goes back up.
Upcoming Dimensions packs include Sonic, Adventure Time, and Teen Titans GO!
>>5372136
>Sonic, Adventure Time, and Teen Titans GO
Autism/10.
>>5371896
Does your walmart not have cameras? How the fuck is that even possible.
Fuck me the battle of takodana set here is 90 dollary doos. Why not let the dutch fuck me next time I try to buy lego in australia.
>>5371694
>>5371963
I'm usually not into Pirates as a theme, but I am at least curious to find out what the pricing on this set is going to be. My guess is it's going to be high, even for China bricks.
Went to Target just for kicks this afternoon. The toy aisles were still pretty much devastated from X-mas. Open boxes and loose bags of parts on the shelves. Still, they had a few of the Nexo Knights and BvS sets out. I managed to find a couple of Elves sets and a City set on clearance.

I want to make that deliciously brown Neko.
>>5371465
Wait for the Resistance X-wing that's rumored for later this year.
What the hell's going on? When is this set coming out in America? Why is it out everywhere else but here and we can't even look at it on the American Lego shop website.
>>5371650
Odds are you can only access the games at the little arcade walls that appear in many levels. Each wall probably 'holds' one or two games.
>>5372354
I'm expecting a full arcade room like Namco museum.
*fingers and dick crossed*
>>5372363
Right, it does have an adventure world portal too, and since it's a level pack it probably has another mash-up of old games like the All Your Bricks level.
>>5371339
>totally forget Lego gray is different than normal lego gray

>I have in front of me, a fully assembled Horizon Express including RC motor and stuff.
>I also have the engine for the second one 90% assembled in front of me.
>Here's the deal though: I want to reverse the second drive motor so that when I tell them to go, they go in synch in the same direction and not opposites.
>Anyone know a good way to do this? I'm kinda new at this.
Sorry for going back so far, and I am sorry I was not in the thread at the time this was asked, since I saw you got no good answer from the general.
You have two options. Either you install the motor in the same direction as the first powered engine (which would be backwards of what the booklet says), or you go and buy a PF polarity switch and string that to your IR Receiver and your motor. The switch acts like an isolated, independent version of the reverser switch found on the PF train controller.
Horizon Express is the shit, especially when it's extended, so I hope you get it to work right.
My TRU just got the whole new set of buildable figures.
why is Phasma and Kylo $5 more than the others? Just because they have capes? ended up getting the stormtrooper.

Where did that black storm trooper come from? He looks bad ass.
My new years resolution is to take more Lego photos.
>>5372181
70 - 80% of the cameras are fake, but the real ones are rotated on some kind of schedule.
At least, that's how Target does it.
>>5372406
Finn and Poe are also $25. Rey and regular stormie are the only $20s. Wait for a sale.
Ok so I just picked up LDD. Started using this piece in brown. Go to look it up on BL and Lego, mfw it doesn't exist. Is this rare that LDD features colors of bricks that don't exist?
>>5372469
>Where did that black storm trooper come from?
That's probably the old Shadow Trooper from the 2007 TIE-Crawler and the troop-builder 2008 Imperial Dropship set.
>>5372469
hes a shadow trooper, only came in the 2007/8 Battle pack and the TIE Crawler
>>5372523
You're looking for "reddish brown" anon.
Like Gray-to-Bley, Lego has changed, over the years, its formula for brown bricks to reddish brown from plain brown.
The brick you seek exists in modern reddish brown. No problems there.
Just bought this Lego-Bros, first purchase of the year.
>>5372523
Oh yeah, also, yes, there's a few bricks in standard LDD mode that don't exists IRL or vice versa. This is because LDD was intended to be used as a Legoland park builder's tool, and those guys can get batches of bricks they wanted ordered anytime in any color they like. For this reason a few bricks exist in LDD in colors unavailable IRL.
You made a good call checking Bricklink to see if parts existed before going forward with any plans.
>>5372536
Has there ever been a reason given for the change in 2004?
>>5372546
What is this?
Why is Hulk so small?
>>5372565

Anyway I'm curious, is it wise to resell our Lego sets? Will used sets price increased?
Because most of the sets that I saw people sold online are new un-opened sets. So what about used sets?
And how should I repack them if I'm planning on re-selling them later at a profit?
>>5370968
This is so stupid it is funny.
Got a bit nostalgic and got this for christmas, not sure if i want to build it or return it. I know im going to enjoy the fuck out of building it, but itll probably just sit there for a few weeks afterwards until I tear it apart and put it back in a box.
This is the first lego set i got in years, how do you guys do it? I know its a hobby and all but do you still see it as a hobby for younger kids? Do you just build stuff with them or do you actually play with the minifigs?
Not trying to offend people here, just want to know what you guys think of this hobby
Im 24 btw
>>5372766
I'm 30. I have 15 10-gallon tubs of Lego in my room right now.
I have the Death Star sitting on my table on display. I like to set up new little scenes and stuff here and there. I don't actively "play" with the minifigs, like walking them around or such, but I do imagine new scenarios and set them up.
>>5370910
>Feeling guilty
Why?
Sure there might be that pang of "Fuck my life" at first, but you have to remember one thing.
You have shit to build too. There's things simmering in your brain waiting to be constructed, and they will be fucking fantastic when built.
>>5372766
>I know its a hobby and all but do you still see it as a hobby for younger kids? Do you just build stuff with them or do you actually play with the minifigs?
Short of turning on my trains once in a while, and the occasional zooming of my Spaceship! I don't actually play with the stuff unless I'm spending time with my little brother and his fascist tyrant Emmet
>>5372766
I run a semi-weekly game with them full of drama and intrigue and sexy naked minifigs.
>>5370910
Why would you feel guilty
Enjoy what you enjoy, who cares what other people think? They probably think you're stupid and then go home and watch Keeping up with the Kardashians, or whatever, to spend all their time on Pinterest.
Who gives a fuck? I was self concious about LEGO through college and now I'm in grad school and could care less. I like enjoying my hobbies and being proud of them, and fuck anyone who doesn't respect you for that.
Alright senpai, be gentle. First time building in LDD. Wanted to build a commoner cottage for castle theme. How'd I do?
>>5372863
Looks great. I've yet to try building any actual buildings in LDD, I mostly do spaceships and midi-scale Star Wars stuff. Which means I always worry about if it will work in the real world or fall apart because of all the weird angles.
>>5372868
Thanks, the backside and inside isn't done yet. I hope to work on some spaceships eventually myself. Mostly want to work on the castle tho.
>>5372863
Looks fine, if extremely straightforward.
>>5372863
Looks good, needs a chimney/fireplace maybe
>>5372881
I thought about it, the serf houses I based it on actually didnt have any chimneys but I still may do that.
Some one posted about the crooked print on the mouth section of stormtroopers in the new battlepacks? well I have the same discrepancy with one of the helmets too, the other one is good, but one of them has that same kind of misprint
>>5372852
MURDERER!!!!!
>>5372687
I wouldnt. Bricks that can only ever be one thing is what's wrong with megabloks
>>5370973
Pirates shit at this point would be uninspired, they just need to shake it up like Nexo Knights. Space pirates.
Enlighten stuff always looks terrible to me.
>>5372766
30, just busted mine out of storage. Mostly rebuilt for display and nostalgia. I've only bought some small items (blindbag minifigs, nexo knight ultimate set, etc). I mostly dig castle and space. I couldn't see myself displaying something like city, it seems bland to me.
>>5372964
>Space pirates.

Won't lie. Kind of want Macy.

Alright faggos, I'm in a pinch right now.
I have $25 in Amazon Credit.
I also want multiple of the intro-pack Lava Grunts.
Do I, use the credit on Amazon to buy the smaller 12.99 sets, or do I use it as a discount for bigger sets? I'm eyeing that Nexo Knight Rumble Blade and that King's Mech, but too bad he's Lego Shop/Retailer exclusive.

The reason you grow up and get a job is so that you can afford the toys that you couldn't have when you were little.
So how could anyone be to old to play with toys? What's the point in having money, if you can have fun with it?

In case you missed this delicious tidbit from the last thread. Ofc dude gets off the chain when hardly anyone would be in it anymore. Anywho I cut out some bullshit and put it into copypasta format.
>>5373357
If you aren't creating mocs then buying Lego isn't a hobby. You're just a collector. And you shouldn't be an entitled prick saying things like "he didn't post fucking instructions to his moc grrr". Lego collectors are literally at the bottom of the Lego hierarchy, right above Lego scalpers, and maybe MAYBE above minifig customizers. Collectors are overgrown man-children who probably masturbate to Lego YouTube reviews. Hobbyist's actually build mocs and don't just oogle at them and comment "pls post instructions." Honestly I feel sorry for you guys.
You can't just buy something, stick it on your shelf and call it a hobby. Hobby's are things you "work on". But you've probably never worked a day in your life have you? Do mommy and daddy still buy all your sets for you? And newsflash, Lego is a business they don't give two shits how much joy you get out of it and what you do with your bricks. If you honestly get joy from buying something and putting it on your shelf. That's the saddest fucking thing I've ever heard. If you get joy from using Lego bricks to build something on your own, put it on the shelf or internet and look at it and say "good for me that looks great". Then you are doing it a whole lot better.

Shelob is legit fantastic to play with.
>>5373359
I was just reading though the last thread to catch up, and I have to say, whoever posted this has many things wrong.
But I only have two points to make.
The Lego company is one of the highest quality toy manufacturers in the world. They are about quality before quantity. If Lego was about money and not quality, they wouldn't set the quality of the toys so high, and would just pump out some much cheaper toy that breaks in five minutes, but they don't. They listen to their customers and constantly try to improve on their products.
I personally prefer to stick to the City sets, and set them up on a large play table to play with. I like the simplicity in the City line because they have designed the sets to have playability, and when you sit back and look at the sets centered around the buildings, I personally am reminded of old wooden toys, or the big plastic buildings like in old He-man toy sets. I like building the bonestock sets, and I like to play with them. Sure, I also appreciate the high detail in some mocs and the more expensive sets but the simple sets have a dollhouse charm to them that I like, and see no reason to change.
>>5373149
I almost want this to scare my girlfriend with.
>>5371286
Sorry about the delay on this; I was pretty busy today. Still working on the main cab of this thing, with some possible front treads in the background.
Also, 2x2 plates apparently don't come in dark tan. Who knew?
>>5373394
What are you guys using for this is it the old LDD? Or something else?
So I want to set up an urban battle between some Stormtroopers and some Rebels, but I'm a little stuck - On a small scale, what sets apart a city in Star Wars from a city in modern times? It's not just the aliens and droids running around, there's more to it, but I can't nail that down in a way that I could build in Lego... Any advice?
>>5373396
It's ordinary, modern LDD.
Why?
>>5373408
Darker color pallet, lots of neon signage, and tall with a lot of details to the buildings to look like they're made out of recycled spaceships.
>>5373411
Is there any way to get the parts up to date? On my pc, the latest parts are out dated.
i paid for a lego with new box and instructions for on ebay, box is great and so are instructions i havent got the item yet, but i noticed that a user with 0 feedback had put the price pretty high before i won the auction
should i report it? i find it a little suspicious
>>5373420
They'll be banned for it for sure but I'm not sure what, if anything, eBay'll do for you. Probably nothing.
My uncle used to pull this shit all the time. He even messaged me on Facebook to fake bids for him sometimes.
>>5373420
Yeah I would just for giggles at the least. I hate when bid wars start early and people drive the prices high. I almost entirely deal with BINs. I have to buy any lego on ebay yet.

>>5372766
FUCKING BUILD IT AND HAVE FUN
I am 39 and still play with my legos
I rediscovered it last year and holy shit I'm glad it stayed in a trunk in a basement all these years. Look adults are allowed to play with shit like jigsaw puzzles right? her'es a puzzle with millions of piece/color combinations and the only end goal is build whatever YOU think is cool.
Wht the fuck is wrong/childish about that.
I make up storylines and worldbuild for my minifigs for instance my Classic Space guys are eternally on the run from evil aliens, I build spaceships and weapons for both sides, the only difference between now and when I was 12 is now I concentrate on building and getting on everything just right instead of throwing shit together and play with it; it makes for dioramas, the starfighters and mechs go on model stands and so on and so forth. oh and I have a fuckton more pieces to choose from, also so that aspect of it is even better
Build your fucking police sation, it looks pretty cool. Get some cars, pose one busting throught eh wall to rescue another crook; lego lends itslef nicely to building wreckage/damage
AND WHEN YOU TEAR IT APART BUILD SOMETHING ELSE
anybody esle miss lego boxes having alt-builds on the back? it's like people need to be hit over the head with the idea that these little plastic bits can go togehter in different ways
anyways have fun anon if you return that set unopened you're a dumb fucking bint
>>5373425
should i wait for the item to arrive? i already paid for it.
Hey lads can I ask one of you kind anons out there to do me a massive favor?
I'd like to try out this connection, but obviously LDD doesn't recognize it as a compatible attachment and I don't actually own the gun piece for myself, so I cant test it on my own with the real parts.
I'd be super grateful if one of you guys who own both the parts could test the connection for me and tell me how far it goes in and how sturdy the connection is.
If you're feeling super-awesome you could even post pictures with a height scale or something similar to the diagram just as a reference.
>>5373439
Do you actually want a refund or do you just want them to be punished for it?
If you want a refund you might as well start proceedings now; otherwise, I guess, wait for the item so that it's definitely in your hands before you inform eBay.
>>5372797
I do play with my figs and stuff I build as I create a big universe since I was 6. I still have my sigfig from these years (updated of course), and even If I don't have time for "full play" I often just come up with short stories and pose figs on my shelves.I's not boring, and many friends actualy wish to have imagination like me.
In addition I'm collecting some lego pieces (gamefigs and crystals)
Also Toxikita is the best.
>>537344
It looks straightaway like it would break the brick system, and wouldn't necessarily hold well either.
>>5373417
How do you mean "outdated"? LDD Hasn't updated in some time and won't for a while either. 4.3 or so is the latest version.
>>5373453
>as I create a big universe since I was 6
why did my imagination die
i used to be all about this
>>5371040
>>5371044
Finished up my canopy and stuff with pieces from the First Order battle pack.
>>5371044
>>5373463
Also made the crew less anachronistic. No time paradoxes here.
>>5373444
i actually want a refund so ill file it now thanks
>>5373441
it sucks anon, and Sad Futuron Guy is sad to see this abomination
it's pretty wiggly and weak; I recommend going with one of these 1x1 round plates with a hole through it, then you could shove through a vertical bar.
http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?P=85861#T=C
>>5373466
And I removed the wheels because I thought they were too annoyingly visible, and found a nifty place to store the spare ammo containers, since the speeder itself is pretty crammed full of minifigs.
Overall, I'm pretty proud of this. I didn't exactly build an entire MOC, but I'm usually not creative enough to do much more than make a few tiny changes to existing sets.
>>5373456
For some reason it's really hard for me to do it now. But sometimes when I meet my younger cousins... Man with them and their box of lego I create universes I could never do myself. So I always wondered how it would be playing with one of you /lg/ guys. Aspecialy my fav- Lego quest man.
The way how you Lego is up to you but many people can change it for better.
Look at MOCs, listen how other People enjoy their Lego. Prosper!
>>5373441
>>5373471
You should stick one of these things on the side, so the stud is facing down.
>>5373475
No, I also used various pieces from the 1,500 piece creator box and some that I just had spare.
>>5373478
Well shit.
>>5373149
And just like that, I want to create a Lego Spider Waifu.
>>5373474
Oh and I find the wheels amazing because they really make the craft levitating.
Does it bother anyone else that the TFA stormtroopers have white hips and hands? I think it makes them too monochrome.
>>5373484
Go for it.
>>5373489
That actually looks like an anime spidergirl drawing from the thumbnail.
>>5373489
Teach me, all mighty arachnid loving anon.

>>5373359
I actually agree with most of this desu senpai.
>>5373511
I'll just pretend I heard a lower price my friend :)
>>5373488
I agree.
I just gave mine black hips and hands so they don't look weird.
>>5373502
>I'm really curious what you're making. Any pics?
Sure man, I can share if you'd like. You helped me a bunch, the least I can do is satisfy your curiosity. It's Ivara from Warframe. I'm only at the head stage right now but I'm getting results I'm mostly satisfied with so off to a good start.
Here's a pic of the internal construction of the head. Ideally I'd like to achieve a build that doesn't have that unsightly groove on the 1x1 tile and replace it with a 1x1 plate instead. That's why I asked about the pin/gun combination, I'm trying to work out how to invert that entire bottom assembly with the extremely limited amount of space that I have.
>>5373520
Still you're not being a vocal autist about it.
>>5373502
>>5373554
And I did try the connection you suggested, but I'm not actually sure if there's enough room to get a bar into that area. LDD is being extremely temperamental regarding the actual length of this bar, so I'm thinking I might just buy the pieces and test it for myself.
I'm enjoying this thing more than I should be, I just took the FO pack and took the figures and dumped the bricks in my misc chest, this though, I'll keep this as a desk toy
>>5373526
And the cashier can pretend to charge you a different price. And your bank can pretend to withdraw that amount from your account and give it to Lego. And we can all pretend we have more money then we actually do. Sounds great.
>>5372976
City is pretty bland. It's mostly what my collection consists of.
To spice it up I put super heroes and CMF to it.
ALSO
>DeLorean MSRP 29.99

Fuckkkk I knew I shoulda gotten it when it was $50.

Daye nigga, chill. Have a pic.
>>5373438
>anybody esle miss lego boxes having alt-builds on the back?
I do. But I guess that's why they made the creator series.
>>5373456
Thats is cool. Simpsons series 3 pls.
>>5373566
Why does my phone post these pictures like that?
>>5373560
You seem pretty upset about this man. Sounds like that guy struck a nerve kek
>>5373562
hahaha I just finished drawing that exact thing as a suggestion
I have no other ideas... good luck man.
>>5373554
>>5373562
Try this?
>>5373576
No there wasn't anything he said that applies to me. I just thought he was being a faggot about it is all and I am pointing out that other guy is not being an open faggot about kek
Anyone know when these come in the US? I already see those first order battlepacks on amazon and the lego site, but not these.

It's all good pal. I just tested it with the pieces I had on-hand and the connection in the 2nd picture you replied to totally works irl. But thanks for the help.
>>5373562
>extremely temperamental regarding the actual length of this bar
Basically, LDD's collision models are sometimes too simple for their own good, most of the time they don't treat the hollow spaces under bricks/plates as actually being hollow, so stuff that would easily fit IRL won't go.
>>5373608
Well, damn. Thanks anyway anon
>>5372683
The standalone part is the 2-high 1x1 brick with the hinge bits top and bottom, right?
Larger shutters fit into windowframes, in the same category.
>>5371427
>implying anybody cares about midway
Get the fuck out, Spy Hunter and Rampage are legitimate classics.
>>5373626
I actually want to get the pack to play the level, but I'd prefer literally any of the Rampage monsters as minifigs to the gamer guy.
>>5371694
Okay, I'm seriously confused. Is this a Ninjago 2016 set or the single greatest KO set I've ever seen?
>>5373639
Looks like a KO. You can see the enlighten boxes in the reflection.
>>5373359
The truth right here
>>5372273
Just bought this fucker for AU$10
That's a bit of a win
>>5373611
Who was she/he?
>>5373621
Yes. I already figured out what I was going to use. I did notice the 1x2 called a shutterholder in LDD is actually mostly for doors like the castle double door.

>mfw collecting is described as a hobby no matter a fucking retard says
A hobby is a regular activity that is done for enjoyment, typically during one's leisure time. Hobbies can include collecting themed items and objects, engaging in creative and artistic pursuits, playing sports, or pursuing other amusements.
>>5373661
No no no. I just mean sometimes I'd be revving up the old meatstick, go to open a porn board, get distracted by checking /toy/, see a new set in /lg/, decide to watch a review to get a closer look at something anon didn't quite capture in their image, still be vacantly stroking as I skip around through a Jang video to see said detail, then usually have a fairly depressing moment of clarity.

when
>>5373766
Literally this
I need this in my life
>>5373766
Was their ship cool? Only way I can see them getting into a set is if they make that or they appear in some other canon thing LEGO makes sets of.
>>5373766
YIS.....
I need more aliens for my Mos Eisley cantina.
As an update, I bought the first piece to make Bea "MOTHERFUCKING" Arthur as my bar mistress.
We also watched the Star Wars holiday special for the first time tonight. Rifftrax version.
I saw an old wookie masturbate to a black lady singing him a song.....I saw the exact moment Harrison Ford gave up on giving a fuck......I saw Mark Hamill weeks after his accident.....and most of all, I saw Carrie Fisher, out of her mind on coke.
Its an experience.
>scouring the internet for video reviews of Nexo Knights just so I can scan the shields
>Really fucking tempted to go for broke buying these new sets
I've lost control of my life.
>>5373822
i've got 9 different ones, i can post tomorrow if you want?
>>5373830
Thanks, but I think the main source of the problem is that I have about $200 to my name, and I need all the sets. Maybe I'll hold off for now and just buy until I get enough cash.
>>5373822
Keep an eye on this.

Star Wars CMF line when?
>>5373841
Lego can't. It's too close to action figures, to which Hasbro has exclusive rights.
>>5373844
Couldnt Disney say yes? Seeing as they own the franchise?
>>5373846
No - They're locked into contract with Hasbro on action figure rights.
>>5370927
>tfw when people believe me when i say for the kids.
>>5373841
Basically this >>5373844 >>5373847
At least until Hasbro's license is up and Disney decided that it would be a good idea to let Lego do a CMF line, which may happen eventually if the up coming Disney line does alright. But even then it will still be a while, because I'm pretty sure Hasbro recently renewed their license for a decent amount of time.
>>5373673
There's no skill or expression in collecting. Its a vice, like greed and addiction.
>>5373866
Hobbies don't need to involve skill or expression. They're just something you do that you enjoy.
>>5373870
AND TO ADD TO THAT (sorry, im drunk.)
THINK LIKE THE CHINKS.
FUCK CONTRACTS.
FUCK MORALITY.
FUCK COPYRIGHT.
FUCK IP.
Make what you like or love.
>>5373866
You don't seem to understand the "work" behind collecting which is a reward for some in some way.
I collect minifigures only - all LEGO minifigures since white pupils. The race for finding figures as cheap as possible is great fun. Shopping on Bricklink, combining the best deals, sniping on ebay etc.
The work behind it is huge especially when new stuff comes out.
Anyway, /lg/ is for ppl loving LEGO - fighting over what's a hobby or not should be taken to /b/.

I hope they do more of these.
I just watched the Star Wars Rebels episode "Wings of the Master" - Gotta say, I really hope they put out a Blade Wing set.
>>5373895
There's an A-Wing set coming out this year too, isn't there? Maybe it'll have the Phoenix Squadron paintjob.
>>5373883
Marvel and Star Wars POP!s are actually bobbleheads to skirt around the restriction.
>>5373895
HNNNNNNNNG
B-wings have been my favourite for a while - but when is rebels set? It's before Yavin, right? They weren't developed til after... even according to nu-lore?
>>5373911
>>5373912
>>5373915
Leave John alone. Poor guy can't even shoop properly.
>>5373910
This is the nuStar Wars, where nostalgia is more important then story, content, development or logic.
>>5372723
Scan them up to five times for maximum power.
>>5373841
What's the point of the sets? The bigger reason people buy them is for the figures. It'd destroy sales.
>>5373169
No it ain't, Disney THEN Series 16 next fall.
>>5373441
It's an illegal technique, obviously. LDD doesn't allow those.
JUST GIVE ME A BATTLE PACK OF SCOUT TROOPERS ALREADY

Serious question /lg/.
Would any of you say the cab of this thing even looks like a limo?
>>5374165
Fuck it I'm just gonna buy some of the newest scout troopers with black legs on ebay.
>>5374087
They only cost £3 on bricklink are you poor or something? The battlepacks usually run you £12 so just buy 4 and make your own.
>>5373463
Could you show us the bricks you used for it? Looks awesome. All I need now is to make some sort of addition to mount it to the Imperial Assault Carrier.

So you don't collect Lego? Why are you here?
>>5373868
I enjoy masturbation, but I don't go around telling people it's a hobby.
>>5373879
I assume the "work" you're talking about is the job you go to to finance your addiction.
>>5373941
Yeah. George and the eu is pretty hit and miss but at least they were trying.
>>5374167
Your best mates will understand, and if they don't they weren't very good friends to begin with.
Where would I be able to get a box of assorted monochrome bricks? I want to build a base for my imperials, LDD doesn't feel personal enough for me and I'm shit with technology.
>>5374198
Maybe she meant Lego was actually Shit.

>>5374198
Hang in there fella, you've got to ease them into it, I've all but given up with finding relationships. More trouble than it's worth.
>>5374202
Either Bricklink it or go to a Pick-a-Brick wall.
>>5374199
To be honest, I don't really have what I'd consider best mates. I'd rather not risk my social status when I've spent this long fishing it out the gutter. Especially not over something as easy to hide and such as lego.
>>5374234
>Don't feel. Don't let it show..
So when they find out I'm a lego witch, will I have to build a lego castle in some mountains and rain bricks upon my hometown?

Fucking Jealous, that's like one of my favourite sets, I've bought 5 of it so far but it's sold out everywhere now and the prices are nuts for the places that still have them
>>5374271
Not much really. I just prefer standard stormtroopers.
>>5374243
It's a possibility that shouldn't be ruled out yet.
>>5373766
This guy's gonna be in a spinoff, right? So there's a good chance he'll get a minifig.

It's a prototype B-Wing. This fits the story well - The prototype here is developed, and then by the time of the Battle of Yavin, it's hitting mass production.
