It was in the E3 Livestream, Andy Holt said he's upload any LEGO Dimensions recordings he could get his hands on.

TIMESTAMP SORRY
https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=60036-1#T=S&O={}
70$ Canadian with cheap shipping for this fucking shit?
Is that a deal or no?
But they are Russian, should I be weary?
It says already assembled, do they pack it neatly and send it to you and it comes as it or does it break like mad along the way?
If I can get some complete sets for cheap then holy shit.
I just paid for my first bricklink order. Got 2 minifigs and accesories just to see what's up. It went through.
I'm stoked.
First time poster in this general, so I'm not sure if this is the place to ask. I want to clear some space and I have a bunch of parts and manuals from classic space sets that I want to sell. None of the sets are complete as far as I can tell, but I do have all their minifigures and manuals. Would it be more profitable to sell the figures seperately or stick them with their respective sets?
>>5732305
So four (or more) we do not know yet? Disney/Marvel properties will be Year 3 or later if ever.
Currently we know of:
Gremlins
Goonies
Girl Ghostbusters
ET
Harry Potter
Fantastic Beasts
Adventure Time
Mr. T
Sonic
Teen Titans Go
Mission Impossible
Knight Rider(?)
Powerpuff Girls(?)
LEGO City Undercover(?)
>>5732218
I hid a Didney bag behind the Elmo in Grouchland DVDs at Target. Plan to go back for it when I have the $$$$.
>>5732377
Probably stick them with their respective sets if you have them. Post pics of the sets you have?
CL they want 300 bucks. it says they have all the plates, figs and instructions. what does /toy/ think?
>>5732390
Here's what I have so far. I'm still in the process of organizing them, hence the ziplock bags.
>>5732397
Pretty nice collection anon.
Looks like you might have more minifigs than you have respective sets, so i'd match up your minifigs to their proper sets and you can sell the leftovers individually.
If you're missing pieces, you might be able to use http://www.bricklink.com/v2/main.page to order the missing pieces, I'm just afraid of some people being upset that certain pieces are different ages than others.
I might be able to take those two blacktron sets and maybe a few minifigs off your hands though if you want. What area are you in?
you can email me at
[email protected]
>>5732377
I'll give you $150 AUD for the original space guys
>>5732397
also interested depending on where you are

>>5732233
>>5732238
I've been saying that I've wanted a Blue Beetle set for a while now. I swear, they do this to fuck with me.
Nah, I'm kidding, looks sick as hell, detail is fucking amazing. My dad drove one of the original beetles back in the day, bet he'd get a kick out of it.

SIX ENTRIES? And it's only Monday?
This list is starting to fill up, so don't forget that
THE GREAT LEGO QUEST SUMMER SPOOKY GIRL GIVEAWAY CONTEST
ends Wednesday! Just make a summer-themed MOC and post it in this thread along with a timestamp and email and you could win a genuine mint-in-bag Spooky Girl CMF! This contest is open to everyone in the world, but it ends in two days, so get building!
>>5732381
OK, confirmation of Lego City Undercover here:

>>5732462
These are awesome. I like the visors on the green and orange guys, plus blue hair for cheap finally!
>>5732472
They add up quick, especially when you end up having an entire series grow on you to where you have to get them all.
Fuck that TV design rey hands in is comfy. Somebody reverse engineer it quickly.

>>5732462
am I the only one who noticed the hollow studs with bar?
>>5732518
>hollow studs with bar
That is a pretty neat piece. I wouldn't be surprised to see an official version sometime soon, although I wonder if the bar-stud connection meets their QC standards. It seems like it should be fine, because it's basically the same as the box wrenches, only with a stud.
>>5732422
>>5732429

>>5732515
I spent way too long at the middle of the night to do this. How are you going to become a master builder if you cant even see the connections? I color coded it for you.
http://imgur.com/a/6D9bW
>>5732689
Different anon, but I believe the purple 1x1 brick you used should be an Erling, with a 1x1 square tile on the side stud.
>>5732716
That is a good catch. Were you planning on building one?
>>5732724
I was just about to dig into my spare parts box when you posted your album.
>>5732620
Fuck that's a good movie. Excellent taste, Anon.
>>5732739
If you built it with the cabinet using one of those translucent doors it could be ten times better! I forgot those were 2 x 3 x 2.
>Lego Dimensions Year 2 up for pre-order on Amazon
>Hype as fuck but the prices are still rape
What do senpais, do I play the waiting game?
>>5732802
Yeah I think you should just wait. The pakcs you want will go on sale eventually.
On the other hand, it's possible that Lego reduced production numbers on Year 2 because of the way the previous waves sold, but in that case you should only try and save up for the one or two packs you will want the most.
>tfw dimensions wave two has no new adventure worlds.
The battle arenas look neat but why no adventure worlds. It would have been so cool to run around the land of ooo as voldemort.
>>5732462
Where did you find these?
Logo on the box look's like Kazi
>>5732821
What? There's gonna be new adventure worlds for all of the incoming franchises, including a separate world for the new Ghostbusters movie.
>>5732821
>tfw dimensions wave two has no new adventure worlds
The Adventure Time set literally has 'Adventure in the Land of Ooo' written on the front. Pretty sure the press release mentions new series getting both Adventure and Battle worlds too.
can people post some lego gore? I havent seen any in ages, I'm talking bulk illegal connections, obvious stress on parts, butchered customs. No shitty paint jobs, they're boring and come up enough on /tg/
>>5732847
I'd say they're just trying to show off the battle arenas since it's actually new content. We've all seen adventure worlds before. Don't worry, I was worried myself when I realised that it was the Pillow Dimension in the trailer, because I was worried that we wouldn't get Ooo after all. I was happy to see that Pillow World is just the battle map for AT.
Do you have links to anything? I haven't seen E3 stuff yet.
>>5732851
Only thing so far is a short 3 minute video but a lot of news has been coming from floor demo's
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YhT3ru_IlzA
>>5732802
Isn't it amazons policy to charge the lowest price prerelease when they bill? So you could end up with a good deal, or just cancel last minute and wait for a sale
>>5732853
>Stripe
Is he using the Faun legs?
I found this while digging for more Dimensions info.
I was looking at the summer sets on legos website and my heart started to sink looking at the prices until i noticed i was on the australian version of the site. Its insane how much more expensive sets are there.
>>5732911
why was this allowed
>>5732955
Yes yes, we know that Straya and Europe lose always when it comes to Lego, no need to rub it in
>>5732905
Yeah, but he has no longer arms...
Fuck dimensions
Lego worlds seems to be growing slowly, I played the newest update and I can say they fixed many problems I had with this game - better building, camera angles can be ajusted and 2CO-OP.
It's fery zany as old good lego games - Spooky skeletons riding lawnmowers, Magicians that cast firenbolts and look for dragon eggs, and many more!

They just find new ways to hurt me
>>5733108
cool thanks man
>>5732854
Alternatively, if you have Amazon Prime, you get 20% off video game preorders, which will probably get you the best price for the first few months of release.
>>5733127
Canadian Amazon is inferior compared to US Amazon :(

Is it decent quality?
So from what we've seen so far, it seems like Nexo Knights won't be getting any Dimensions support?
ARE YOU READY FOR THE CHASE F A LIFETIME?

>>5733292
The bottom left one is a total ripoff from one Ultra Agents-vehicle
>>5733431
Star Wars desu
>go to store today
>want to buy some Civil War sets or Vacation Getaways
Which one do you think is the better deal, Crossbones Truck + Black Panther Jet or Creator Camper Van?
The price difference is negligible, but the two Civil War sets are nominally cheaper combined.
>>5733431
As an owner of the Slave I, I can confirm that it is absolutely glorious.
Can someone from murrica explain why sometimes american BL store has a minimum shipping for $14 to Europe but sometimes only $4? They're for the same weight of item too.
>>5733528
Depending on the availability of the CW sets, go fot the camper van. If there are still a decent quantity of CW sets there is a chance that you could get them on discount later.
It's been a while since the movie came out and whoever was interested in those sets might have got them already.
>>5733441
>total ripoff
hmmmmmm
Yo /toy/, what do you guys think about my collection.
It's a bit messed up sorry
>>5733659
>why did you build everything sideways
>>5733235
>Is it decent quality?
8/10, some molding marks are noticeable.
>>5733659
did you kragled everything to the shelves?
>>5733662
Double face print looks like shit when the hat doesn't cover it.
Of course I could buy 2 and remove one face with heresy, but then again, I can't justify the cost of buying an entire lot just for this minifig. Same case as with that Black Widow torso.
holy shit
>>5733719
That makes my head hurt.
>>5733308
holy shit he looks good
But it's sad that there will never be a default Gremlin figure to stick the theatre full of.
>>5733718

>>5733676
>black widow torso
i'm curious. what do i search?
>>5733779
Shen Yuan SY207. Some sort of Avengers Microfighters that happens to have a Black Widow minifig with a particular torso.
Home Alone in Dimensions WHEN
>>5732905
>buy a shit ton of blindbags to get the ghost
>get 3 skeleton cosplayers, a mad scientist, and gargoyle instead
This is suffering
While I got a lot of positive feedback on the build last thrad, I was really looking for help making a custom decal/sticker to give this Nexo monster satyr/demon thing a face.
I can design one on the computer, but what's the easiest way to translate that to a sticker or decal?
>>5733837
Did your order them online? because there's no justification to buy lots of bags for a specific minifig if you can feel the bag contents.
Unless the store flat out forbids you from doing so.
>>5733838
I'm pretty sure you can buy sticker paper from your local supermarket and load that into your printer. I've never done it myself but assuming you own a printer, it shouldn't be that hard.
>>5733838
its cool. we've seen it. you've posted it multiple times. enough already.
>>5733854
I bought them in the store, but I couldn't really feel them because one of the employees kept floating around near me as if I was gonna steal something.
>>5733870
>my reading comprehension is literally zero
I posted it last thread and that's it, and I didn't get an answer.
>>5733881

>>5733837
So what you're saying is, you're really bad at fondling bags.
>>5733890
>one model in one thresd with 3 angles is posting it too much
Wow you must hate hulkbusterfag.
>>5733892
Yeah, pretty much
>>5733890
Oh look he's posting all the important angles to see it well instead of taking just picture, what a criminal, am I right?
>>5733894
I'm just saying what we're all thinking.
peace be with you multi angle red robot anon.
>>5733890

>>5734033

>>5734029
They're practically indistinguishable from BrickArms and they also have copies of other brands like Minifigcat, the mortar in particular. When I reflect on how much I've spent on the Legos armaments industry I don't feel bad about getting a few KOs on the cheap, heh.

Wait, so do you need the Ghostbusters portal to play the game?
Jesus. I don't want that.
>>5735325
What? No. You just need that pack to play the Ghostbusters movie. Not needed at all for the full Dimensions game.
>>5735326
Ok. I wonder how the new figures will work with the old portal.
>>5735362
The LEGO built portal is basically just for show. It probably won't change a thing outside of the Girlbusters set/story.
>>5735362
Just fine.
Have they confirmed new worlds for the non-level pack characters? I really want a Goonies/Gremlins/A-Team world. I know they get battle arenas at least.
LEGO Dimensions at E3 is coming up in less than 15 minutes. Get hype!
>>5735400
Not sure if they officialy confirmed it, but yes, every new franchise gets an adventure world. You can see pictures of those worlds on the backs of the new boxes.
So, no Dimensions Knight Rider was announced?
>>5735589
it's confirmed by a press release, but there's no public announcement yet.

An amusing thing about most of these WW2 packs is they tend to include a not-Brickarms Mauser 98k for everyone regardless of faction, guess it's the one rifle the Chinese decided to mass-produce.

>>5735912
Fuck it, they're like 6 bucks a set. Buy them all.
>>5735910
They're a copy of the Mega Bloks barbed wire. The sandbags are a Minifigcat design, got some of those back when they were new.
>>5735916
I feel like it would be pretty easy to make your own less round sandbags, no? 2x3 plate with two 1x2 jumpers on each end and a 1x2 tile in the middle.
>>5735919
Sandbags just happen to be rounded, the brick-built idea is ok if you don't mind a blocky aesthetic.
I made a custom Ford GT40 based off of that new Speed Champions video LEGO Posted.
>>5735919
Decided to test the idea, colors are just what happened to be easily available. The build suggested is on the right, because of how 2x3 pieces work they can only be placed to curve if they overlap. On the left I added a layer of 1x2 plates so they don't have to overlap, in better colors it'd be a passable sandbag nest I guess.
Rear view.
>LDD says these pieces can't connect
Why?
>>5735952
I think this is very neat-o anon.
>>5735958
because connecting more than 1 stud to adjacent technic holes is an illegal build.
>>5735958
http://bramlambrecht.com/tmp/jamieberard-brickstress-bf06.pdf
That is in the OP. Page two starts to explain why, and it is all detailed in there.
>>5735962
Connecting one stud doesn't work either.
>>5735971
then it's because LDD is silly
>>5735953
I thought about it for a minute and if you use two 2x2 L plates instead of one 2x3, you can keep the bags 2 plates tall and still connect them in the center instead of offset.
>>5735980
Fair enough, I still prefer the purpose-made sandbags but in a pinch those will do.

5 wide cars are fucking hard
I've been trying to get frisky with this thing anon posted and goddamn I'm bad at lego
>>5736015
Isn't 5 (or 7) wide cars the easiest way to fit two figs beside each other?
>>5736019
allegedly
>>5735974
No its because the dimensions between holes on a technic beam are different to those between two studs, It would cause stress and eventual damage to the parts!
>>5736019
MY jp car is 7 wide, was a complete bitch to make!
>>5736023
Maybe "easiest" isn't the right word. "Most space-efficient" might be better.
>>5736024
The difference is negligible or they'd consider even a single stud connection as illegal, they're worried about kids struggling with it.
>>5735952
>>5735954
>>5735986
10/10.
And, without the side scoop, front hood vent, and the rear spoiler lip it'd be a Toyota 2000GT

>>5736028

He clearly said 5, anon
Not six
>>5736019
>Isn't 5 (or 7) wide cars the easiest way to fit two figs beside each other?
I am a big fan of this method, although somebody recently posted a build with a better stick that I'm hoping will be posted again this thread maybe?
>>5736200
7 wide is easier than 5 wide due to needing much less fuckery for minifigs to fit, but it's still a pain having to work with an odd number width wise.
>>5736212
>it's still a pain having to work with an odd number width wise
This.

You can try listing it as a custom item. There is also a form to submit new sets to bricklink. I'm not sure if that was there before. I had to do both of those to try and list a new polybag I had gotten.

>>5736592
I've said it before and I'll tell you again. If we get Goofy, I hope we get long arms and legs. If we get long limbs, we might get Woody. If we get Woody, we would need a second Toy Story representative. Jessie confirmed if we get Goofy.
I also expect we get a version of Mickey in each series. I'd like to see that cool casual 90's Mickey. I'd also like anything from Tron.

>What minifigs do you want to see for Stage 2 Disney
I want to see minifigs NOT have a price jump to $4.99 each. I assumed the Disney wave would push the price up like they did for the Simpsons, but maybe they've realized that this is as high as a price as they can maintain without turning customers off.
>>5736898
Wait what do they normally sell for because in AUS so far every wave has been five bucks.
>>5736900
I'm talking regular money, not dollarydoos.
>>5736898
Kinda grateful for that since I got the figs I wanted without too much hassle. Hopefull it reaches the point where my local stores end up clearancing them like they did with the simpsons CMFs.
By clearance I mean "selling them at the normal price of a CMF before the online videogame shit"
>>5736909
Couple of toy stores here opened some Simpsons S2 and S15 bags and placed them on a baseplate next to the counter if you'd like to buy a specific one.
And then few weeks back they discounted the remaining Simpsons to 1€ each. Too bad most of them were missing an accessory or skirt or had incorrect one, and the fact that they're Simpsons that no one wants
>>5736913
Welp, could be a decent deal if you want them for very specific torsos or arms. one of the good things of the simpsons CMFs is that you can use a lot of these parts for regular non-fleshie minifigs.
>went to an anime convention last weekend
>one vendor had fucking bootleg capeshit minifigs
>not even good ones, just some plain Batman and Superman and few others

>>5736844
>my first Lego in a long ass time,
Welcome back!
>>5736971
Nah.
Building is relaxing. I take it slow and steady. Even building something with instructions means it's time to take a few hours- even for a smaller set- and put it together piece by piece, savoring the experience.
>>5737243
the problem now is, i got no idea what kind of a car to make out of this, which side should be the front, what kind of hands to give this guy, how to finish off the head so it still fits the small space it needs to fit during transformation, and which end should be the front.
so a lot of problems to figure out, which kinda makes this really slow.
>>5737251
i have no experience building these, so it's all some kind of dark magic to me anywho
