I hope they do more mechs per wave, the only thing I wanted out of the first one was the King's Mech. I might get the vehicle that splits up so I can mod it into a Bravesque upgrade set for KM. Also, I hope they keep full articulation for the next mech.

>>5630461
post them and fuck the whiners in their ear canals

>>5630453
You have to remember, these CMF sets are probably like $5-$7 for the ENTIRE SET. MUCH cheaper than what lego has to offer. Thats why, no matter how much the purist may REEEEEE about it, usually these are equal to lego in my opinion. Sure, there might be a few oddities here and there (like the thin waists), but usually some thing like that can be fixed with a part swap or two.

>>5630497
Nah, the children are already complaining about shit and I have a feeling some over zealous janitor is going to come in here and delete them all anyways.

Shit anon, that's pretty well-done!

The only complaint I have (besides the speed) is that moving the camera upward at the end is pretty jarring. It might look better if the anim was longer and it led to something, but as it is, it just looks like you picked up the camera at the end and forgot it was still recording.

>>5630506
You're improving.

Work on maintaining a constant rate of fps, that will probably really hard but practice makes perfect.

I wouldn't be surprised to see if the chinese have a bootleg planet earth somewhere

>tfw I really want Darth Revan

is the Aliexpress REALLY that ok? Some of their paint apps look like absolute trash.

>>5630524
Yes, the Revan figure is just fine. Only things that might be off are the color of his saber blade (easy swap) and his cape is actual cloth instead of that fake paper cloth shit lego used for a long time.

>>5630524
Buy a couple. Increase your odds.

This guy gets it, I just did that with my movie style Deadpool, one of his kneepad prints is off, so I ordered another one, and if that one isnt good, im ordering five more so I can frankenfig a good one.

For about 80 cents a fig, its not that bad.

>>5630529
If you just pack bunch of pictures to video, you may simply copy same frame several times.

>>5630531
>Any other purchases worth recommending from there?

EVERYTHING from the Enlighten Pirates series is fucking beautiful. Theres a ship thats a giant turtle, undead pirate ships that are HUGE, a water ski powered by two sharks pulling it, and some great waifigs (and enlighten is willing to print the cleavage on them.).

Most of the single superhero figures are great except for a few exceptions (any of the iron man figures are good EXCEPT for tonys face, they print it too high on his head, easy swap though.), they are doing what look like some OK nexo knights knockoffs right now, and for SOME REASON, they released knockoffs of the ninjago sky pirates shit like a MONTH before lego did.

Mostly just keep in mind that the stuff is cheap enough you can take a couple risks to see if they are stuff you might like. Also keep an eye on shipping costs and delivery time. The good stores have free shipping, but definitely expect the shit to take a couple weeks to a month to get to you. Good thing is they have protection so if it take longer than 60-90 days at the most, you get a full refund AND get to keep the shit if and when it comes.

>>5630537
Thats a good idea. I was going to try and convert single images to video by telling ffmpeg to use a really low fps then stitching them all together with the higher fps stuff when I was done.

so bootlegs are acceptable now? are the plastic quality on par with lego?

>>5630543
Yeah I saw the purple waifu with the pirate set and the badass skull guy, I need to check if they sell them separately.

>>5630499
I know they are cheaper, but I wont buy the entire set for just one or two pieces that interest me, that still $5 to $7 that I'm not using to buy other pieces.

Most of those figs are simply too specific, and I don't like the head prints. That being said if anyone is willing to start a BL store that sells certain bootleg parts as "custom items" I'd totally buy from you.

>>5630546
Yeah for the most part. Sometimes the clutch is a little loose, but I've bought multiple non-lego sets off aliexpress and they're all fine.

>>5630546
They are improving

>>5630546
Bootlegs are acceptable as long as you just ignore people bitching about it. And yes, the quality is really good, sure, theres a few mistakes here and there, but it seems like its getting better by the month, so give it a shot if ya want, buy a figure for 80 cents, what do you lose?

>>5630556

some people....

>>5630562
It definitely seems most of the non lego superhero prints are stolen from custom figure makers. The movie deadpool for instance, I found a site last night selling the "legit" customs.

They go for close to $50.

Well actually no, I was wrong, for some reason I thought it was different. Only difference from a regular figure is one of the legs is a tad bit loose and there isn't any "LEGO" mold mark anywhere.

I wonder what the lego company thinks about this

>>5630586

>>5630644
>no transparent baseplate

>>5630644
If someone gets them they need to post the quality of them here. They have some colors like (yellow, purple and red) that look pretty cool.

>>5630591
Enlighten for sure for sets, some of the others are ok.

Sheng Yuan (I think thats how its spelled, abbreviated to SY and then a number for looking for specific figures, IE: SY223) and Decool are pretty much the top dogs for super hero figures (although decools can be hit or miss.)

Bela makes some pretty good knockoffs of full sets, like star wars and capeshit.

Pretty much just do your research and look for reviews, heres a good place to start, this guy reviews a lot of this stuff and even does side by side comparisons between lego and the knockoffs.

http://mybrickstore.blogspot.com/

>>5630650
We have one from one of those house sets that they sell, its pretty much same as lego. Pegs fit nice and snug. Plastic feels a little different, but who cares how it feels.

Also you can buy different baseplates, which im guessing are these chink ones, on amazon if you dont want to deal with ALI, but its STILL coming out of china, so the shipping times will probably be about the same.

>>5630648
That would be neat as fuck, but I bet the plastic would feel pretty brittle. Chinese transparent parts are definitely a little off. I bought a set of blank transparent minifigs and they definitely are not up to snuff compared to lego. I have a trans nick fury though which is really good, so it may just be hit and miss.

>>5630657
And reading through this, I think we have out first review of one of the Star Wars TFA knock off sets, Kylo Rens shuttle.

Guy says its spot fucking on, solid construction, even the figures look good.

and it only costs $41.

>>5630671
Actually, scratch that, looking at the closeups of the figures, theres definitely some issues and he even says that, but still, compared to $120, easy enough to replace a few first order troops.

>>5630899
presumably fitting inside the leg, up until the armor's knee, I think. From a build stand point, it's just his torso stuck on a 1x2 modified plate with bar.

Any instructions fr the basic build? I can see how some of it is done, but its a bad angle for some of the parts...

>>5630954
Same problem here. The creator, Devid VII, doesn't post instructions for his stuff. part of the challenge of understanding what he builds is figuring out what pieces he actually uses. But it does seem like he favors those neck braces for attaching stuff to minifig bodies and droid arms.

i'm having a little trouble photographing black parts with my one lamp and phone camera.
The rocketlauncher i built is barely visible for example, but when i up the exposure the bright colours tent to overexposure and oversaturate. But when i don't the black has very little gradients you can discipher. I think the camera does some weird contrast fuckery even though i turned auto contrast off.

Yeah the suicide doors were a bit of a necessity, but now i just imagine it being modded a lot.

The hood/windscreen assembly is the trickiest part, but the two squares on the hood kind of spoil how it was done. Event though it's attached with just a few studs, the backs of those headlightbricks clutch like a motherfucker. Also i ran out of 1x1 plates with studs when i took this picture on one side, but those fit snugly on the inside of the windscreen piece too for stability.

For axles i use modified 1 x 4 plates with wheelholders on the side placed. Then i place them on jumpers. The plate has hollow studs so you can use the tubes of a plate to "un-offset" it so to speak and the wheelarches allign again.

It's flimsy as fuck, pretty much crumbles in your hand if you try to move any of the parts. The feet aren't too bad, the worst parts are the wrench elbows and where the front of the cockpit connects to the body when closed.

If you're referring to the inverted slope, it exists in the other Elves sets as well.

It's seems to be a new 1x4 slope not two halves. but sadly I can be wrong

>>5631863

It's two 1x2 inverted curved slopes desu families. Not a 1x4 inverted arch slope.

also i've just noticed the smaller dragon wings

>>5631890
Actualy these are new Dragon wings- they appeared on elves dragons already. The bigger wings are standard dragon wings from castle

Haha, you really went to town with my design man. Imitation is the highest form of flattery i suppose. I also used jumpers instead of chairs for it to seat two minifigs next to eachother btw.

Sup /lg/ I've been lurking these threads for about a week now and decided to get into the hobby after cashing out of MtG.
My question is: What would you recommend to buy to someone who never got to play with lego as a child and is just starting out his collection? I'm mostly interested in building mechs a la MF0 and maybe some cars to build with my nephew. This past weekend I checked some local stores and these sets catched my eye:
>http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?S=31033#T=S&O={}
I can get this for $21. I liked this one because the amount of wheels, wheel brackets and mudguards seemed amazing for the prize.
>http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?S=31042#T=I
I can get this one for $8. I liked two of the three designs, the third one just swaps the tail with the wings and that seems like cheating to me, but hey at $.08 per piece can't really complain.
>http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?S=31040-1#T=I
I can get this one for $5. I liked it mostly for the cheap price, the designs are samey but not much can be done with 65 pieces half of which goes to the chassis . Might get this for the nephew anyway.
>http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?S=31041#T=S&O={}
Again, $5 for this one. Seems like it has some interesting and useful pieces for later use in building mechs, and also comes with the "car chassis" pieces which I like.
>http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?S=10695#T=S&O={}
$28 for this. I don't have any bricks and less than five cents per piece seems like an awesome deal to me. I could build some shit with the nephew with this and use it later as terrain fodder for MF0.
>http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?S=10693#T=S&O={}
$18 for this. Same deal as the last one but it consumes less of my current budget which I can spend on other sets.

TL;DR: You have $50 bucks, you have no bricks, what sets would you buy?

>>5632074
>cashing out of MtG
>have $50 bucks

Your design is brilliant, it is so simple and easily modifiable that I couldn't help but make variants. Utility is my favorite capability of a design and yours was just asking for tinkering! I didn't think to use jumper plates, I just wanted what looked the nicest haha Expect more in the future because I am sure I'll be up all night fiddling with these.

>>5632074
If you want to build minifig scale cars those wheels might be a little on the small side, unless you really like the 80s 4-wide town look.

Also consider what colour parts you'd be interested in as the creative buckets tend to have all kinds of colours in small quanities.

Unless you don't mind going full rainbow warriors.

As for mechs, do they have mixels around your place? (Here they don't unfortunately.) They tend to have rather coherent colourschemes and lots of joints and such handy for robutts.

>>5632058
>That tickle your itch?
it is a beautiful thing, thank you

>>5632080
No, no. I cashed out, then I put aside $50 (which coincidentlly is what I sold each of my SP Tiagos at) just for buying lego. The rest of the money is on a bank account until I decide what to do with it.

>>5632088
While I wouldn't mind the rainbow warriors look while starting it does seem like a good idea to pick some colors and stick to them. They didn't carry mixels at the stores I went to, but it seems like a good idea to hunt those down, lots of useful pieces, I got thrown off by the goofy design on the bags at first glance. About the cars now that I look at them again they do seems to be on the small side, never bothered to check them with a minifig side by side. I'm liking these >>5631911 >>5632044 designs,could you guys post some step-by-steps please? I'm mostly interested in the chassis or skeleton of the builds.

The stores seemed to have mostly recent stuff:
>Ninjago
I liked the minifigs and some of the sets but they seemed to be way overpriced when I checked the prices online.
>City
This line looks too bland for me, there may be some useful sets but they were a bit on the expensive side.
>Chima
I would like the line but it is a bit too furry for me even if it has some interesting designs that were on discount.
>Super Heroes
>Overpriced Capeshit

>>5632044
Sweet, looks like the Slug Gunner.

>>5631724
How bad? I have it 95% complete and stored away, could be 99% if I took the time to find a bunch of common pieces

Oh god yes. Took me about a week to build, made the mistake of getting drunk and listening to head banging music the first night and got so hyped from the mix of the build and the music I threw up from drinking for the first time in years.

Only bitch is the thing is so heavy and right now we have it on our fireplace mantle. When doing fires in the winter I took it down each time, scared as fuck of dropping it. Wish I could get a second one, had a neat idea of mixing it with the steam train set from the lone ranger series, make a super train.

Also, it sucked because mine was missing about 6 pieces. A few little things like the extra pirate hat and some of the greeblies, but also a whole sail was missing.

Buses are literally boxes on wheels. This one is just stacking bricks, except for some upside down slopes on the rear. The hardest part is fitting all the seats inside, which is jumper plates.
It is 8 studs wide, which probably triggers scale layout autism. You do need 8 studs to get two rows of seats and an aisle.
I want to make an articulated light rail train to go along with it, but I don't have a good sliding door design

I think 8 is the sweet spot. Right now the number of seats maps nicely to a real bus, where every pair of seats is one seat. Adding two studs is enough for 3 seats per row, but still only room for two fat little minifigs.
7 studs wide would be nice visually but fucking disgusting to build, and I can't have two seats face the aisle at once.

If I had more disposable income I'd still cave though.

Ever since I was a kid I've been paranoid of this.

I can't help but shake the feeling that these sets are meant to encourage sticking as much shit as possible onto a minifig...

I should try and get their mech, I couldn't find it for a good price and it's starting to disappear. When it was on sale the titan mech battle from ninjago was going for the same price so I went with that.

>>5632942
Are those yetis in the back?

>>5632943
Yeah I figured they would fit in just fine. Picked up 3 of them way back when they came out, just in case.

>>5632948
What set were they in? Those would have been neat to pick up.

>>5632949
Series 11 blindbags. Thankfully it's not one of the hideously overpriced ones so you can get them for like 4-5$ a pop still.

>>5632954
Oh. That explains why I missed it. Period of being broke and focusing on other things, combined with not being impressed with the price and design of most minifigs in those blind bags initial offerings. Of course, they started putting out decent ones after I stopped paying attention, naturally.

Might just buy some of the older ones now, if it's not too crazy. Picked up a couple of wave 15 because I liked basically every option in the bunch, and now I have a little minifigure fever.

I assume bricklink is the best place for older ones?

>>5632968
Well that adventure ended fast. Shipping costs more than the yetis, if they even ship here. Living in Canada is suffering.

I might just go out and raid stores feeling up bags for a shark to console my lack of checking out earlier releases.

Am I allowed to leave negative feedback because the seller assembled the set I bought from them?

>>5633008
Did it say new? If so then you could slap them over the head for that because that would be misleading. In that case I'd seek some kind of recompense first. If they noted they were going to ruin your fun then you just have to check the details next time.

>>5633007
Scratch that. Learning how to filter results is an important skill and shopping without sleep is a bad idea. Found some decently priced local sellers after sifting out all the trash. Now I just have to reason out spending so much for some minifigures.

>>5633008
Did you buy a "New" or "Used" set? Former yes, latter no.

>>5633013
>>5633014
It's used, and I knew it was when I bought it, but the listing made no mention of it being sipped assembled.

I'm obviously not being serious, I would never leave negative feedback over something so trivial.

Just a mild let-down is all.

Are either of these worth a visit? I think I heard that the latter is just for kids, but idk.

Thanks friendo.

Question, Why does the lego general make me feel so comfy?

>>5633354
it's only comfy when lego quest and classic space guy(s) are on

So apparently there's a Lego store opening in Straya.

>>5633374
Yeah queensland of all places and at one of the big three themeparks.

>>5633374

i thought that it was opening in Sydney?

I'm actually pretty happy for you blokes. Maybe you can not get ripped off now or something.

Nah the first one is opening at dreamworld in november this year or next year.

>Bricklink seller tells you he didn't include a specific part in your order AFTER shipping it

Such a scummy practice. But not as bad as that guy who didn't say anything and included fucking COINS instead

Goddammit guys. All this talk about Lego stores is making my expectations skyrocket. I'm going to visit one overseas with a friend in next month and I know I'll be disappointed with it

>>5633396

They're basically the Cheers of brand retail

>>5633402
I've had this happen as a seller. There's nothing you can do, accidents happen.

But I've always shipped whatever I left out with some extra parts free of charge.

>>5632797

Looks good, I like that you added side armor plates.

Didn't they add a restriction so an adult can't enter the parks unless they are bringing at least one child along? Not sure if this also applies to the Discovery Centers.

Anyone have any experience selling vintage unopened Lego sets? How longs it usually take?
>>5633478
>Didn't they add a restriction so an adult can't enter the parks unless they are bringing at least one child along
Only places like Chucke Cheese do that

>>5633478
What the fuck did AFOLs do to have that kind of reaction, Jesus.

Were they fucking scalping the stores or something?

>>5633387
I'm going to be in Queensland in September.
Fuck these cunts need to get there ass' into gear and get it done by then!

>>5633503
I think it was a case of child abuse by some random guy who entered alone.
Adults with no children can still go but only in nightly events that are not hosted everyday IIRC.

>>5630449
>>5630467
So when one of us inevitably buys these knock off/off brand modular, will posting the instructions be considered heresy or the same as posting pictures of bootlegs. Or will the purists turn a blind eye as technically it would just be posting instructions for MOCs?


>>5633503
Pretty sure it's nothing do with Lego and more to do with the growing notion that every adult in the world is a pedo.

>>5633559
Who care what the babies and whiners say. Just post them. Fuck everyone elses problems.

>>5633559
Depends on how much heresy the instructions would have. I personally eon't mind bootleg stuff if left by itself, but the heresy of modding or mixing brands is another story.
But I rarely express these opinions on this general so don't mind me.

So I started prototyping a Starcraft 2's hydralisk, this time not using LDD. Here it is next to my firebat for size comparison. I'm happy with the scale even though it is a little too big for minifigures. Too bad some pieces dont exist in brown.
