Summer's here, at least in the parts of the world that matter, and you know what that means!

No, not an endless swarm of trolling newfags. I mean, yes, it means that, but it also means

THE GREAT LEGO QUEST SUMMER SPOOKY GIRL GIVEAWAY CONTEST!

Everyone in the Lego General has the chance to win their very own mint-in-bag Spooky Girl! Just take a picture of a summer-related MOC (with timestamp) and post it in this thread along with an email. Once ten people have entered, the one that makes me laugh the most will win a free Spooky Girl!

This contest is open to everyone in the world, but it ends June 15, so hurry up!

Is the anon who was making the modular bobs burgers building still here because I would love to see any updates done to it.

>A Mysterious TIE Fighter variant that for some reason is never seen afterwards
To be fair, Lego also did TIE Crawler a while back.

>>5707471
I was being more critical of the source material (Rogue One) than I was of Lego. Lego can only work with what Star Wars gives them, after all.

Plus the TIE Crawler is kinda neat, this is just like a TIE Glider, and I'm sorry but gliders will never be cool. Tie a string to this bitch and it's a TIE Kite. Look, they're even at the beach, the weather is perfect for flying kites.

[notoyspoilers]Whoops, meant Tanktrooper[/spoiler]

>>5707684
And thats a scary thought.

It either means A: He isnt going to be in the movie as much as thy are hyping him to be.

Or B: He is going to be in it in a way that we are not expecting and they have to hide that fact.

As far as I can tell, he has only been in the suit a handful of years. Could he possibly be in only PART of the suit in this movie? Like, will he go helmetless maybe for some of it? Otherwise, I dont see why they either wouldnt include him or save him for later (especially since the other big bad admiral guy is in this first wave it seems.)

>>5707831
He's probably going to be the "Spiderman" of this movie and be teased in the second trailer to build hype for casuals.

The last ten minutes lead directly into Episode IV so it's most likely Vader chasing down Leia, which means he's most likely somewhere else in the movie.

>>5707834
I still hold the tiniest hope that Ahsoka makes an appearance, maybe her final duel, holds off vader long enough so the survivor(s) can get the plans out. Even dies in a blaze of glory against her old master type of situation.

But this is modern SW, so we cant show any of the established races because reasons, so no Twi'leks or Togrutas....

>>5707834
Also, its not like they have been hiding that he is in it, they released that info early as fuck. Even normies should know by now.

Googling around shows a few people have tried making the Sonic Phantom, but the hardest part seems to be getting the angle of the front end right and still keeping the stripes and the side curves.

You could always go for the boxier GP Legend version, I guess; lots of the renders in that game are boxier/less detailed than the X or GX cars.

I spent so much money for something they'll probably relaunch when the fifth movie comes out.

Speaking of Indy, can anyone recommend me a good face to use for a custom Mac minifig?

Help me out here /lg/.

I want that fountain. However, there's nothign I want to buy at the moment, since there's no new Nexo Knight sets out yet, and I'm not buying fucking $75 worth of army builders. I also have 4 of those 100 VIP Coupons from the calendar.

I don't have much cash, since I'm poor, and I'm also repaying a $500 airline ticket to San Diego because I wanted to visit family, who is awesome enough to take me to Legoland.

What the fuck do I do?
Do I go for fountain with random sets, or skip fountain and get Nexo Knights, or fuck everything and blow my load when I get to Legoland?

>>5708414
Buy mixels. Get fountain.

But seriously, if there's literally nothing you're into. Even for parts or whatnot, and tight on cash, then maybe consider bricklink for it. It shouldn't be too crazy considering it's a ~$10 set.

>>5708068
My second set after coming out of my dark ages.

It really is scary to think about. Force Friday last year was the beginning of my new foray into lego, mostly because my gf who is older never did lego when she was a kid, and after watching me build my first order tie fighter and then seeing one of the city camper vans, she got into it. Since then we have probably dropped like 10 grand plus on lego in the space of less than a year. Out of all my neet autistic hobbies, lego is the one that hooked her. Only problem now is space.....especially since after seeing jangs city setup and the train dude with the setup that goes through his house into his yard, she wants to go full diorama mode with it.

Tomorrow she is ordewring one of her initial dream sets, the VW camper. She is even looking into the lighting kits for it.

Lego is a crazy thing, so simple. Plastic bricks that lock together. Yet it can bring people closer or even split them apart over simple disagreements ("I like CLASSIC sets!" "NO, fuck you fag, modern is where its at!"), it can inspire the greatest levels of creativity, or even just keep someone calm when they are stressed.

A timeless toy and a timeless hobby. In the year 3016, hopefully, people will be playing with interlocking bricks, designing the simplest things or the most complicated scientifically sound bits of architecture.

Or just building robot waifus with big tits and fat asses.

>>5708448

It really is insane. Before I got back into lego, my main shit was warhammer. Building, converting, creating things using dangerous tools and chemicals or learning molding techniques using greenstuff and tool sets but ultimately getting priced right out of the hobby. Deep down, that will always be my passion, but the prices with GW have gone so fucking insane that their "elite" sister company, Forgeworld, is almost the cheaper option.

Switched to ABS plastic over GW plasticrack and Forgeworld designer resin, and get a bit more bang for the buck, even if it isnt as detailed (which can be circumvented by clever use of greeblies and heresy.).

Sometimes the minimalist option is a good thing. Hell, in many ways the minimalist option is the BEST thing, depending.

>>5709013
Now the question is, could you make a better bridge than that using bricklink for less money? Factoring in the cost of the minifigs from that set you might want.

>>5709016
Honestly I don't know why did they even bother making that bridge. It still feels expensive as fuck and in the end it doesn't look impressive. I think this is a recurring problem with scaling the dimensions of cars and buildings to minifig size.

For it to look like a really impressive bridge, you would have to go way out of the part count that TLG would be able to handle, and even further out of what the consumer would pay, be if through Lego or trhough cracklink. Same reason why all those Ideas proposals for big vehicles and locations will literally never take off.
Trying to make a building of this size only ramps up the cost of the whole thing with little payoff in my opinion. But as long as the exclusive minifigs manage to justify the sale, I guess they won't even care.

Good

Can you imagine the Nintendo Tax?
Also, keep in mind the majority of the quality of products Nintendo sells state-side compared to the few products that are higher quality, (figma and figurearts.) The majority of products are cheap and it shows that Nintendo is seldom ready to shell out a large investment for products to sell. (That aren't videogames of course.) With all of that in mind, the sheer amount they would need to invest in a Lego line of products probably doesn't interest them at all, especially considering they went Megablox anyway.

It would be cool, but I think it's extremely unlikely at this time.

>Timestamp?

In order to prove that you actually made that MOC just for the contest and didn't just post an old MOC you had on your hard drive, the contest requires you to take a photo of your MOC that has a timestamp visible in the photo.

Fucking 10/10, holy shit.

Makes me want to take a crack at making some F-Zero machines now, minifig scale or otherwise. I've seen lots of people try it but so many of them are MEDIOCRE.

The legs are on a joint and fold into place and the top of the head becomes the front. Not much of a transformation, but you could say that.

Kind of lame, I like the older coins better. the rest of the set is great though.

Personally, I like doing mini models more than minifig scale models.

I liked that style of coin.

At least it's not a chest full of only gems and jewels, like the 2015 Pirates line.

I've recently gotten back into Bionicle and one thing I've considering MOC-ing lately is a Makuta figure. While I am certain he will receive a figure down the line, it probably won't be of his small, Matoran-esque body. What I'd want is to build myself a display of Ekimu and Makuta in their mask-making days. Currently I got Makuta's mask via my Umarak set.

I'm now weighting two options:
Option A) Ekimu and Makuta are built in Matoran/Protector size. That would mean buying the Mask Maker vs Skull Grinder set. The upside is that Makuta will be small and easy to build by buying pieces online. Under this option I'd consider using a Protector of Earth as a starting point. I've seen Protectors and the Mask Maker vs Skull Grinder still available in some shops.

Option B) Buy the new Ekimu and make them both Toa-sized. A bit less accurate to the design we've seen on Makuta, however and requiring me to build a bigger Makuta (and thus requiring more pieces). Ekimu would also require me to get a solid gold Mask of Creation via bricklink as to make him match his brother. Alternatively perhaps it is possible to dissasemble Toa-sized Ekimu and use maybe most of his pieces to rebuild myself a Protector-sized Ekimu.

So, any ideas? Any input? Its not exactly a hard project by any stretch since that Makuta design is mostly a color swap of his brother.

What do people think about that Castle line as a whole?
I got 70401 and 70403, the two sets fill each other out nicely, especially considering all 8 faces are unique.

>>5709728
It's a great set, simple yet beautiful pieces. nuff said.

>>5709728
I rather enjoyed it. Nice simple caste and accessory sets, neat dragon and bad guys. I wish it had gotten a second wave, to be honest.

I hear the castle has shot up in price, too. I wish I had gotten one or two more of it. One to build up the castle I have, a third to Nexofy.

>>5709728
Sorry, I meant 70400 and 70402.

Was the 70404 Castle modular with 70402 Gatehouse Raid?

>>5709728
I didn't buy much of the line. I was kinda bummed that my dark age meant I missed 2007's Castle theme, and Kingdoms. Compared to those, the 2013 line was just a bit too basic for me to get excited about.
Same thing happened with Space. I was able to catch the tail end of Galaxy Squad, but Space Police 3 was just so much more appealing to me.

>>5709720
Definitely option A, both of them protector-sized. Frankly larger Ekimu looks a bit weird, and likely the same will go for Makuta if you build him in the same style.

How long do you think it'll be until another regular Castle theme comes about? With Nexo Knights to be around for what seems to be a long time, do you think they'll avoid putting another castle-y theme on store shelves with Nexo Knights around?

I ask because I only recently became interested in castle sets (I started playing Skyrim) so I missed out on tons of nice sets like >>5709728

So how long do I have to wait?

>>5709776
Nexo Knights will be around till late next year for sure, maybe longer. With that in mind we probably won't see another "normal" Castle set until 2018/9

So are the new DC Superhero sets really not dropping in the States until August? Because I fucking NEED them, man.

>>5709825
Why would you excited for the DC sets, when the Civil War Spider-Man set is coming out around he same time?

>>5709842
Not as much of a fan of the Marvel sets, mostly because the DC sets aren't based on movies. Other than the BvS ones, and I only got the armored Batfleck set out of those.

Same here. I got out of 40k and went into model railroading for a brief time. Then I figured out I could have more fun at less cost with lego trains.

What sort of horn/whistle/whatever do modern trains have? I just got the highspeed passenger train set and I'm like... Okay, I gave it lights, but there's no sound kits for Lego...

>What sort of horn/whistle/whatever do modern trains have?

The trend with "modern" model trains is digital function. Instead of just wiring, lights and motor, many model trains come with a bare-bones circuit board that can be modified or accept another, fancier circuit board. The three model locomotives I have all took drop-in replacement boards for digital function. The digital boards on a basic level allow you to program everything the locomotive can do, like how fast it accelerates/slows down, individual light activation, and functions to program a set route on your track, provided your switch tracks are also "smart"

Then there's ones that allow for sound, and those do everything the basic ones do, plus sound programming.

A smart enough person could easily modify lego trains to have sound,. I've seen photos of 9v motors modified to have digital control boards. Dunno about Power Functions though, unless you're smart with infrared broadcasting.
