>>5951781
Hey, to each their own. I like how they look, desu. >>5951417 but yeah you nailed it. The whites in the eyes and the extra detailing like lines in the face, cheekbones, or dimples just seem uncanny in a way to me and Emmet and Benny I feel are a much nicer style of face. The hyper detailing I feel is best suited for fleshie heads but I just prefer the simpler cutesy look of classic on the yellow heads.

Does it make sense for these three models to be to scale with each other?

What about the alternates (not the ship, obviously)?

>>5952090
The helicopter should be larger relative to the rest.

>>5952090
creator sets come in several different scales, as long as the models look good and come with interesting pieces they sell

Oh, actually I guess it's more like three molds, the pistol, carbine and rifle.

Like most languages that have seizure spelling, once you learn the pronunciation rules and alphabet/language specific letters, it's much easier than it looks, especially if you know a lot of synonyms in english. Also, a trick my Humanities teacher taught me: master the 100 most common words in a language and the rest will be much easier.

have you never seen a real train? absolute graffiti magnets.

like I'm normally opposed to all forms of heresy but I think it's a decently creative and oddly realistic way of doing up a lego train.

I mean, aside from the poorly scribbled shaprie writing on the front end, it looks nice enough. Considering how utterly trash most custom painted lego builds are, this one is surprisingly not bad. Obviously it's not perfect, the paint seems too thick in some places, but it's certainly not the worst paint job in the world. Though I suppose if you're an autistic trainfag you'd probably get triggered just on the principle of defacing a train.

>>5952842
He looks amazing. I wonder what he would look like next to the buildable figure.

>>5952845
>defacing a train.
I'm more concerned about defacing the bricks.

>>5952844
I do agree that it looks nice, it's just weird seeing it on that particular engine. I'd like to see what the artist would do with the cargo trains.

>>5953364
I definitely expect them to cut a lot of the details.

>>5953382
They will also make more of the studs visible, so it will look more like a LEGO set

>>5953370

How did you know

>>5953230
LEGO truly fucked up on this one.

I mean, it's nice that they show that they're considering bigger sets. But this has over 2000 pieces, okay say that LEGO removes like 800 pieces it's still gonna retail for like 120 bucks - I don't see many people buying this. It's just a random fishing house.

>>5953444
People buy modulars, though. And this looks way better than most of the modulars.

>>5952794
That looks good, anon. I have been waiting and waiting for my wife to finally build the CCBS one we got.

>>5953444

keep in mind that LEGO typically shaves off parts down to a more reasonable piece count before releasing ideas sets

also what that other anon said, about modulars. people buy that all the time and they have a very long shelf life because of their popularity

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhbliUq0_r4

I know it's old, but your honest opinion on this?

>>5953254
>Why do people hate these?

Because they're ugly, too big to look decent as pistols, and tracking down studs is enough of a pain in the ass that actually using the play feature isn't worth it.

>>5953505
My honest opinion is that Greenpeace are a bunch of anarchist hippie terrorists who should all be rounded up and sent to Guantanamo Bay to learn some life lessons.

i had a whole bunch of sports sets including at least one NHL technic figure
i remember they had interchangeable hockey masks and you pressed the head down to make them swing the stick
also had a soccer penalty shootout set with two minifigures, one sat on a spring loaded platform that you'd use to shoot a ball at a goal protected by a goalkeeper fig that stood on a sliding platform

>>5955016
I had that soccer set. The goal piece that came with it is probably the most useless lego bit I've ever come across. I haven't ever seen anyone make a moc with it or anything.

How are these designs generated? They are fan created and then adopted as official Lego sets, right? Do you think it is possible to find instructions/pictures of earlier builds? I really want to try reverse-engineering this one.

where can I find a gallery of all the leaks?

>>5955518
>generated
You upload your MOC to Lego Ideas-website. You have to gain 10000 supporters for it in a year. It then goes to a review with around 10 other builds, and zero to two of those will be chosen as official builds.

And as for reverse engineering, you could ask the original designer, but it's not very likely

>>5955536
someone post something very bionicle like and lets get 10k supporters

>>5955545
10k supporters doesn't guarantee that it gets made.

Yeah I did some investigating and found his original submission. I can't make much out from the small pictures, though. Guess I'll just have to wait another year for the plastic Jew to neuter the set and release it at exorbitant prices.

Traumatic birth. Lots of medical problems. Accidentally left something in my brain during surgery and my brain started growing around it. When they tried to remove it my brain started bleeding.

Left me paralyzed on my left side for a few weeks. Now I have a limp and people look at me weird and just use the way I look and my medical history to avoid interacting with me even though they've never met me. I guess that has kind of changed me as a person and now I'm a dickhead because I think people won't give me a chance to be myself so why should I be nice to them.

What is this piece called in LDD? I can't fucking find it. I searched through pretty much every section. I can find the 1x1x8 version with a flange but not this normal 1x4 with the peg on the bottom.

Their search terms seem odd. I'm not sure which are the official names. Does Brinklink use official names? LDD does not seem to.

>>5955747
something something antenna

>>5955759
That's what I mean. It's a 1x1x4 Antenna on Bricklink, but searching "antenna" in LDD gets me the small 2-part levers (dubbed 'mini antenna") and the 1x1x8 version.

I bought some short articulated minifig legs from Brick Fortress; here's a little review.

They fit minifig torsos okay, not so tight I'm worried about splitting the torso sides. The actual leg pieces can be swapped with Lego ones. I was going to try using one for some kind of cyborg peg leg but it wouldn't work, the height difference is around 1 1/2 plates.

They seem to use the same plastic, color matching is spot on, the minifigs are a little more difficult to pose and balance but that's to be expected. Quality is 9/10 Lego.

My only complaints are, there are pretty prominent sprue marks or whatever they're called, and the holes in back of the legs are VERY tight.

>>5952695

is it the original?

Do you think Lego pays attention to which bootleg minifigs sell the best? I mean, wouldn't that be a good place to start as far as seeing which minifigures people would like in future sets?

Walmart had the U Wing for $68 for some reason. All other new sets were at full price. Sure am glad, because i probably wouldn't have bought it otherwise.

Yeah, that was your mistake. Use numbers or you'll never find what you're looking for. And honestly the categorizing isn't as unintuitive as you're claiming they are. Granted, there are a few outliers than make me go 'why the fuck is that in this category and not that one?' but other than those few it everything is logically placed. You'll get used to it with time.

You could pose the question of brand attachment to any of the many licenced themes that are discussed here, but in this case I think it just adds a little extra "oh cool it's based on a real thing" aspect.

To answer the last two questions from my own perspective, no and no. It's a good value Power Functions parts pack and also includes some wheels and other things that I don't have.

Look at what I'm building.
It's supposed to become a freighter which drags along lots of cargo containers.
