Is this really this year's flagship? I'll be honest, I'm a bit underwhelmed. Maybe 2015 and 2016 spoiled us too much.

Anons that build large ships, space or otherwise; how do you start?

I'm wanting to build both a spaceship and a regular sailing ship, but I never actually know how to start off so I just end up doing nothing and getting frustrated.

(I asked already asked this in an old thread because I'm a fucking idiot.)

Got some printed white torsos that are a bit yellowed. Safe method to destain them without harming the prints or the arms? The arms are colored.

I tend to start with modifying the existing designs and see where that gets me.

Pic related, reworking the Raid Zeppelin.

So my advice would be to download some instructions and try following that using your own bricks.

PS. I know, I should clean up my stuff.

>>6162059
>how do you start
Grab a pen and paper and draw a shit load of top-down silhouettes of shapes that vaguely resemble spaceships. From there pick your favorite(s) and work out how to best translate that into bricks. Getting started is a lot easier when you have something to go on, even if it's only chickenscratch scribbles on a napkin.

any quality pics of the new Jungle sets? Or the republic tank

>>6162076
I know that works for basic piecws but has it been done with printed pieces before?

So this is my traveling companion. I bring him with me wherever I go. The problem is that his particular torso and arms tend to crack. I've replaced it numerous times, but I grow tired of having to do so. What I'd like to know is if there is a way to prevent it from cracking or if I should try replacing the torso with an older one that will be less likely to crack.

>>6162116
The way you store it during travel could be the reason behind the cracking.

I've been going mostly around the states from time to time. Colorado was the first, then back to Ohio (where I live and take most of my pictures), and this summer I went to North Carolina. The last two cracks were from just me traveling back and forth from work and a few other local places.

Depends on how much room there is in there. To much room, and he'll still be able to bounce around and run the risk of damage. Too little room, and he might be getting squeezed, stressing the plastic.

Finally started getting around to mass-cleaning my bricks because I never cleaned the entire collection when I came out of my dark age and some of the bricks haven't been washed in 30+ years and are ATROCIOUS

After soaking the blues in a 1:1 Simple Green and water for a week, rinsing them well, and starting on the next batch, I realized that two pairs of 2x2 bricks were stuck together and didn't get cleaned

Yes I sort bricks by color (1x1 bricks are sorted separately though)

Neat, I didn't know that. I haven't liked many of the castle sets since Vikings, either.

I wish they would do something similar with Greeks/Romans battling mythical creatures. Although I guess the Viking theme wasn't too popular, since they only made a few sets.

>>6162330
I love that idea, just make a new theme called Heroes or something and it just rotates through various cultures mythology

As a matter of fact he does. I made a team of galactic explorers named the Quantum Star Nomads. Mark was just a mechanic when he found the Cosmic Star Wand that sent him to realms beyond his comprehension.

>>6162339
Seeing how popular the two Roman soldier collectible minifigs were, you'd think Lego would do something like that.

I don't see why they don't make a amalgamation of old timey characters with science fiction like the Nexo Knights all in one theme. Throw in some alien cowboys, cyborg vikings, you name it. Kids would eat that shit up.

Which pirate ship is the best value? Looking to get some naval scenes going and need a good ship to start from.

Bought the Riddler mobile set and four blind bags from the Batman Movie series.

Ended up gettng three batman variants and Catman. Catman's got a black guy head so I swapped his head with Caveman Batman head (and added Caveman Batman's flash hands to my custom fodder pile).

Glam Rock Batman is also going to be use for custom fodder plus Pool Party Batman.

Also, Police Officer Black Barbara Gordon's got a sexless torso, so you can use her body for police officer custom fodder male or female.

Enjoyed Riddler and Beware the Batman Magpie. Calander Man and Kite Man are so-so. The set's Batman is pretty good though...

Anyone know what's the release plan for Clock King going to be? Blind bag or box set?

Is it painful? Or like, does your nail just peel off and shit?

My pinky toes are extremely small and cant grow actual nails out of themselves, its always been weird to me.

>>6162931
Aside from being aesthetically unpleasant the worst effect is the nails are quite brittle, cracking and splitting and creating jagged edges. I have to trim them very close to the quick, can lead to some discomfort. One of my thumbs has a tender spot around the base of the nail from it bunching up in the middle, that one concerns me a bit but I don't know what to do about it.

>>6162940
Couldnt they maybe....remove them? Like surgically or something?

>>6162945
Probably, but nails take ages to grow back and I'm not sure they'd even come back normal. All my nails are affected, can't really see myself going through that many procedures when the outcome isn't guaranteed.

It was weird, for the longest time my left index and right pinky were unaffected while the others more or less all went bad together, eventually the holdouts followed suit though the left index is the only one without a fold or bump of some kind in it.

How do you guys deal with big sale blow outs? What do you pick or how do you solve out if it's worth getting. My local Walmart hit cheap prices of discontinued Lego sets, mostly Mixels and Nexo Knights. I bought all the Mixels because they were 1.00 each so there is 0 buyers remorse to that but the Nexo Knight sets I'm giving more pause with, I bought them because again these were last market clearance prices (example Clay's Rumble Blade for 10.00, Jestro's evil mobile for 17.00, etc) but I'm just looking at a pile of what could be hording. I don't want to build the sets and I have no ideas on what to use the pieces for at the moment and yes getting an estimated 350.00 lego sets for 130.00 is a great fucking deal that's still just a waste of 130.00 if they are never used or just gather dust. So I guess I'm just curious how you guys deal when big clearance events happen.

The interior aft of the bridge is rather bare as it's intended to carry a ground vehicle for exploration. It could be fitted out for additional crew stations if desired, been giving some thought on an alternate interior configuration, perhaps with a few smaller, one-man vehicles.

Probably because I took the parts left from the destruction of my 2004 Falcon and built a ship from what remained.

Wouldn't it make more sense to just cover up the top with a square of cardboard? It'd probably look less cheap, as well.

>>6163714
The whole point of that display's (poorly planned) design is that you can see the graphics of the t-shirts that are stacked on the top shelves.

Putting a piece of cardboard over it would just invite a lot of questions about "why is there a piece of uncolored cardboard taped to the top of this display", followed by some epic FB pictures of someone who lifted the cardboard up and took a picture of the display.

I don't understand why so many people have a hard time understanding the concept that "corporations like profit, and associating kids' toys with Nazis causes them to lose profit".

mixels give the most mobility but the least support
the tecnic balljoints support decent weight, but they're large and blocky, and have less range than you would expect, without taking the piece off (you can put it on normal, or at a 90 degree angle, and they have different range of motions)

theres also the tecnic clicky friction pins, that are pretty much the same size as the ball joints, but support alot more weight. i dont like them though, since they have limited posing, from the clicking poses

Found this guy in the pile and it hit me with nostalgia. I had all the UFO sets as a kid including this guys set. Lost them to a fire sadly but as time goes I forgot about them. He's surprisingly clean looking. I'm wondering if the kid didn't like him that much considiering most the other minifigs in the tub are either broken or weathered bad.

Oh my God I had that tiny Technic set and I just now remembered it. I never knew where it came from but I carried that fucker everywhere.

Goddamn.

Which Republic Cruiser set is empirically the best: Judicial Forces red or Clone Wars grey/blood red?

Well, alcohol wasn't a good idea when making a decision, I opened it. You were right btw.

This thing has 3 instruction booklets.

>>6164144
Just finished my NRG dragon, got to say I love the wings and the tail, u wing is a fun set too

>>6164238
I have yet to own a set that has had more than 1 booklet and my most expensive set is a 100 dollar one.

HOW THE FUCK DOES THAT NEED 3 BOOKLETS, it probably could have been done with just a folding instruction

>>6164240
I have the U wing and krennics, but i found krennics for cheaper online so im gunna return the one i paid full for a couple days ago

Speaking of:

What's your most expensive set, anons?

Mine's the US Capitol Building for the office, next one would be Clay's Rumble Blade.

>>6164247
Detective's Office. Only big Creator set I own.

>>6164243
Got it for Christmas and I just loved the ship design, the troop transport part is a tad small but it looks great and it's very swoosh-able with the wing flip feature

>>6164238

>>6164288
Yes. Larger sets also may have more than one manual or have a large spiral bound manual.

>>6164317
no, theres just one manual but it was wrapped in a bag like the pieces. never seen a wrapped manual before

Ok, hindsight time.

Building a family reunion of minifigs was fucking dope.

Good purchase, if you can get it at $30 I recommend it.

>>6164328
Have you ever seen the video for the set, it's pretty cute:

That's why I got mine. I have an abundance of plate armor and spacesuits, but not a lot of sweaters or jackets, so this was a nice step up from the Town Minifig packs of yore.

The rear of the ship, where you can see the external launch pad for the fighters, the massive twin engines, and the rear anti fighter cannon. In front of the launch pad there are 2 missile bays that open and close.

I heard someone say the Townhouse was bad value but it's still leagues better than Star Wars or superheroes (same for all the 3-in-1 Creators) and I really enjoy how it looks.

I love all the building-style 'mini modular' 3-in-1s, particularly the ones that are fully enclosed like the Lakeside Lodge. Anyone know if the family house and modern house are open-back facades or fully enclosed?

The top right one looks like a shitty smaller rehash of Changing Seasons without a light brick which is disappointing.

I thought the upstairs apartment in the Corner Deli was pretty cozy.

That couch looks pretty good, I might do something similar.
