Just found that guy, but his head is reversed and glued (it was a keychain)

how could i put it in the right way?

Doo you modify some of your sets that are based on licenses, /lg/?

>>5898956
In keeping with the thread 'theme', Crossbones' van would make a great Mad Max vehicle

>>5898931
The head is glued? Weird. I still can rotate mine.

>>5898988

I suppose it's stuck because of the glue.

Any I've missed? Naturally there's Homemaker too, but I don't know if I want to count them

>>5899057
They're neat

>>5899082
The troll and Hagrid from Harry Potter come to mind. Are you counting modified molds like the faun or Woody? Also Mini-dolls.

>>5899082
Minidoll. Hagrid and other old bigfigs. Several of Duplo-figs. Fabuland. Star wars-droids. Exo-Force/Bionicle/Hero Factory. Minecraft mobs. Rock Monsters from Power Miners and Scurries from Nexo.

>>5899099
>>5899100
I was more thinking of stuff that doesn't use too many, if any, classic minifig parts. Woody and Faun (and the snakelegs and such) could technically count, but I don't know.

Also damn there's a lot of these fucking things. I have to give this some thought

>>5899082
>>5899104
Oh, and everything Angry Birds.

Speaking of Angry Birds, is there any info on how badly it flopped? The sets here are shelf warming hard. It certainly didn't help that they were ridiculously overpriced here. The smallest car was 20€, the plane was 30€ and so on.

Take a solder and touch the tip of the keychain then using tweezers, slowly pull it out and that should free up the head.

I HAVE A QUESTION.

I have some of the rubber lego hair (specifically several pieces of the exo force anime hair) that has NO grip. I can easily just slide the hair right off. I already tried the cleaner trick on it (which works fucking wonders for the plastic stuff.) and was wondering if theres any similar type of stuff I can use to make it stick again?

>>5899190
Yup. Those prints originated with last year's Winter set.

Is there an end in sight to this?

Decided to make this pic for shits and giggles. I've highlighted every series that contains some reference to some licensed IP.

If I recall correctly there used to be only three or four licence series being sold at a time back in the day.

What happened? Does Lego have to fall prey to the aglomeration of industry under a select few owners too?

a polybag containing wyldstyle
and the LEGO Movie in the format you bought it

Is there any sort of unspoken etiquette policy regarding large orders of low value pieces from Brick Link?

I ask because, after going 14 years without, I recently got back into Lego and am in desperate need of a massive amount of small, generic pieces (1x2 bricks, 1x3 tiles, 2x2 plates - that sort of thing) and it seems like Brick Link is infinitely cheaper than just buying one of those Creative buckets or boxes.

Thing is, I'm completely out of the loop as far as purchasing Lego is concerned and, personally, it feels a little dickish of me to order several hundred pieces from some guy who's going to have to pick, count and package it all, only for it all to come to a couple quid in value.

Am I just being overly cautious?

>>5899604
Some stores actually prefer to sell them in large quantities, they even give you a better price if you do.

>>5899604
When they have multiple hundreds of the same pieces it's probably their job so I wouldn't care.

Used pieces have less clutch power or could break depending on how they were treated, the creative boxes are still working out at like 3 to 5 cent per piece so the mark up on some of the sets is more like an insurance that you get factory fresh topware but that really is negligible.

The worst you can do to Bricklink ellers is making one piece orders of like under 1 bucks. I don't know how many I have gotten of those and it makes no sense, it was never something really rare and shipping would push the price for these people up so high that ordering somewhere else should be preferable.

>>5899161
Where can I get these?

i've been wanting to build a mech plant for awhile, this is my first full scale mock up.
i realize now it needs to be much larger, but it does feature rough drafts of the idea in my mind.
i want the limbs to each have 3 main segments mounted to pistons that are flush with the wall so they can be moved inwards to the chassis, which is on rails. i have 2 cabinets here, i need more, they look good wall mounted.
this is the first structure i've ever moc'd. i have a new respect for all building builders.

If I get 4 B.A. Fun Packs, can I change all four of the characters in game to play as the whole team?

Just received my first BrickLink order! It's...Ok, I guess.

one item was completely missing (a set of 8 technic pins) and one of the round open-stud pieces I ordered was actually a lipless, closed stud piece that refuses to connect to anything via it's stud.

I've raised these issues with the seller, and I'll likely use BrickLink again but it's definitely put a bit of a damper on things. Are these kind of issues common?

>>5900760
Depends, always check the amount of orders placed by other users and check ratings. You shouldn't have a problem if you order from more frequent popular sellers.

I got burned badly by not checking them, it's incredibly easy for them to scam you or rip you off

The fuck is wrong with you people? I've been using bricklink for years and only ever had like 2 problems in my orders over those years. What are you buying from sellers with a feedback rating of -1 or something?

>>5900764
What's a decent number to look for? The guy I bought from had a 98.something % approval with 9500 pieces of feedback.

>>5900769
Ideally 100% at all times, be very strict about this

But judging by the number of feedback and orders something must have went wrong with the order, wait for a response desu.

has the number of sets offered at a time gone up over the years?

Lego can't really do much about it if they put out things that tank. i'm sure they'd love it if monster fighters and that random unlicensed dino series had done well enough to continue on their own instead of being replaced by scooby and Jurassic world. Or if the classic castle and unlicensed pirate revivals hadn't tanked.

I feel like the only thing directly murdered for competing with a license is probably classic space vs star wars. even then, I have a feeling nexo knights is warhammery enough to scratch the scifi itch for some people.

Oddly enough, I've gotten more mistakes when I've ordered from big stores with thousands of feedback, whereas the smaller ones always have everything.

But as a seller myself, I can sorta understand. Big ones are, well, big. They don't have time or drive to make sure every order is good to go when they have ten more waiting. If you're small and get like one order a week, you think of them differently.

Or maybe it's just me, who knows

Technic helmets are so big that a Jack Stone figure can wear TWO helmets.

I assume promo bags that don't get given away with the promo are put on pegs after the promo period has ended.

I usually see regular poly bags out by the registers at targets and most TRU lego isles.

It's luck of the draw on promo ones, depending on how well the sale goes. That's my assumption anyway. I've never seen that Wyldstyle one, but have seen others.

Wow, not only does he follow a trash-tier religion, he can't even follow it properly.

Someone needs to remind this retard that just because he isn't specifically buying sets with wizards in it, it doesn't change the fact that he's giving money to a company to approves of and profits from depictions of witchcraft and wizardry, which is just as bad.

Maybe if he actually gave a shit about his religion, instead of just following whatever he's told to, he'd know this.

The bootleg heads for the pod people are a little worse for the wear. I found out right away that I couldn't use sticky-tack on their faces, as you can see from the mouth on the third-from-bottom. Some of the printing started wearing off while I was posing them, so I had to make sure not to touch the faces (although the idea of rapidly-decomposing plant zombies would be fun).

I'm sure I saw that episode as a kid, but no, I got the idea a few months ago when someone was posting bootleg minifigs in the /lg/. I ordered 20 bootfigs (less than five bucks total and free shipping, thanks slave labor!) hoping that four or five of them would reasonably match up with faces that I already had. I got really lucky and had a dozen close-enough matches, so I was able to pad out the town quite nicely.

After all these years, even after owning the set, I still have no fucking idea what the thing in the background was suppose to be.

>>5902180

it was used to hold / move around the speeder bike. I don't recall it being in the movie...

Just something needed to bump up the part count and keep the price high (I'm guessing)

>>5902180
I also got that set as a lad, while i didn't see the movie at the time my brother assured me it was one of the pipes that got flinged at yoda and the other guy. (i watched the prequel trilogy like two months ago and i already have no idea wich of the jedis was who)

But the scale is off so much that that i have honestly no idea.


I also remember getting the tusken raider encounter around that time. Wich i loved because i loved the tuskenraiders so much from the old movies.

Only after seeing the later two prequels as mentioned before i thought about how weird it was for Lego to make a set about such a gruesome part of the movie.

Which of the 60s Batman bootlegs on Ali are the best? I'm considering getting Batman and Joker but I'm cheap bastard and don't really want to pay 20€+ on BL. Even if it'll hurt me to get fakes.

how are star wars sets still even profitable? Not just for Lego, in general. Are there really people who still want a Darth Vader but for whatever reason won't use one of the trillions of others in existence?

Use the leftover space for mudguards?

Actually the bakery idea's my favorite, I could see little round tables with displays in the windows.

Well, it's a TRU-exclusive so that makes sense.

Jack Stone-figures are lot smaller than I thought. They're only barely taller than a normal minifig

I have the detectives office and the parisian restaurant - which do I build first?

Also, I need a corner modular - do I get the brick bank or the palace citera?

>>5902997
It's not particularly good, either.
"I want a cheaper Vision and/or MCU Spider Man" is the only reason to buy it.
The tanker truck will wander straight into your parts bin and you wish you had bought the Sanctum Sanctorum set instead.

>>5902995
Same reason stuff like Gundam is somehow still popular.

I can see a hipster coffe shop/bakery, also a cozy toy shop, an antique store or maybe a store in christmas time, like a christmas shop

Cinema may look impressive on the outside, but it's pretty barren on the inside. I do like the lobby at least. Fuck that stupid car, though.

Bank is impressive build both on the inside and outside, but I do personally think that green-grey-white color scheme is a bit ugly, and it feels a bit too cramped for my taste.

Cinema retires earlier and is cheaper at least in Europe.

>>5903041

One time I got multiple sets in one delivery

So I poured all the brix out into two piles, spread out the instructions and built both AT THE SAME TIME WHILE LISTENING TO VENETIAN SNARES' "WINNIPEG IS A FROZEN SHITHOLE"

Do exactly what I did you fucking aboulomaniac

Oh, and the absolute, utter worst thing in Cinema is that it's the only modular to use stickers.

At least you can replace one of the movie posters on the wall with Lego Movie-poster but those sheets are pretty expensive on their own

I wonder if Lego will ever address these problems for such and Idea sets.
I know they can't make everything fit the minifig scale, or super detailed 100% accurate, also more pieces means higher prices, but sometimes it feels like they're not even trying.

>>5903064
The Bank wouldn't even be that bad, but I just feel that the laundromat is tacked on just to get that joke about money laundring in. I get why they did that, Lego is a toy after all. Play features are important. Doesn't mean I have to like it.

Then again, I like Detective's Office which is literally a giant playfeature but what do I know. At least there is technically two different buildings so it works a bit better.

Sorry wanted to write Eurobricks.

All we "adults" can do about it is build it once, then improve it.

I'd love to get my hands on the Ghostbusters HQ and make it longer and wider.

Grabbed a Brick Warriors pack from my local TRU. I don't usually get knock off stuff, but I like these for the weapons.

Cape Madness on bricklink has them. Theyre like $1 for the basic coats, but the fancy ones get a little pricey, pic related was $4.

so how is that cyberpunk dance club coming along? Or are you not that anon?

It's just a cape man.

If it's not damaging any lego pieces, then it's not heresy IMO.

>>5903208
of course it does. Question is, does that bother you?

Yes, but it looks good so who cares.

I come here from time to time to see if there are any good lego stuff.
Always disappointed...
There are never any good LEGO Technic stuff with gears and such, just boring barbie figures and basic lego models.
Never any cool machines or vehicles.

This is a fun set. New weapons, faces, helmets, hair, and even beards! Fun horses, too. The bases are huge as they are meant to hold trading cards, which my set didn't include for the sake of space.

They don't even have titties printed on. What kind of shitty bootleg waifu is that.

Huh, those bases look like the ones from the basketball figures lego did back in the day. But they have more studs and different text. Do they come with cards you can put in the little ridge?

There's something weird about technic people.

System? fuck yeah spaceships! cars! mechs! awesome shit!

Technic? here is my giant combine harvester that really works it harvests miniature wheat and next I'll build a scale accurate version of some mining equipment so obscure when you google it you just find pictures of the lego model

I don't get it.

>>5903314
Technic isn't limited to obscure stuff most importantly, it's not limited to boring pre-made stuff with parts designed for one purpose for that specific model that shows on the package.

When I was 12-14 I made self-made 4x4 vehicles with live axles and V8 with three gears and reverse.
I made working shredder machines, pneumatic(used water to mimic hydralic and keep pressure) pressing machines and lifters and platforms.

Not only that Technic isn't limited to other Technic, you can use LEGO system along with it, as proven by this person >>5898792
