i hate you so much!

I've gotten a bunch, so far ran into like 13 different kinds at 99 Cent stores.

Meanwhile in the UK, they are all still full price.
Offers occur like 3 for 2 but the two I want- The Dr Who sets never are on offer with each other.
I'm still resistant to buying them individually.

Any offers I should know about?

Don't mind me, just posting the best girl.

Which Dollar stores have they been showing up at?

Once again begging for anyone who can pick up a 99 cent Wizard of Oz pack for me, I'm in the US and will pay cost plus shipping

>>6164747
Seeing this makes me feel a little annoyed I wasn't in the States for a little longer than I had been over the winter break.

>>6164747
So I found some old series 13 minifigures. (got King and squid face alien) and wanted to know what the old codes did. I went to the site and there was no information and I'm a bit dumb searching for info because I keep getting identification info for other series. So what were they? game unlocks?

>>6164827
99 cent stores for .99 and Five Below for $5 to $3.50 depending on location. This is starting to bleed into online shops and a lot are showing up for $3 and $5

There used to be a game based around the CMFs called Minifigures Online. Starting from Series 12, the minifig packs had codes that would unlock that particular character for use in the game. The game shut down in early 2016, and the codes thing ended in Series 14.

Since the functionality is gone, the code unlock page on lego.com/minifigures is gone too.

>>6164855

Both great pics. Good job Anon!

>>6164855
Yeah, game unlocks. They stopped supporting it back in September.

I really like the use of crocodile head as a tongue and how much movement the head has.

Your mech's forearms are awkwardly long. Have you considered using 90612 (the shortest socket) or 90611 (the second shortest)? You can make 90611 thicker by pushing small tires onto the axle part.

Alternatively, you could lengthen the torso with a taper towards the pelvis, rather than just adding Technic liftarms.

So, China's LEPIN is now using rejected Ideas for some of their sets. What Ideas set would you break down for and purchase if ever made? Mine would be pic related. I would have settled for a LEGO alarm clock of the minifig Stay Puft, but LEGO never bothered with it when GB was getting more attention last year.

>>6164887
Good ideas. But the arms are going to look disproportionate anyway; might as well go a size larger and use the armor shells.

I think the tiny hips and stubby legs are the real issue, making everything else look off, but I haven't got the parts to remake them.

>>6164749
>one dollar dorf army building
Oh fuck yes

>>6164934
Ah, I see. I suppose there's more utility in having the option open of adding bar-based attachments to the shells.

It's good to know that you've fixed the stability issue on the feet of Axl's suit. I should check if I a 2x3 plate in grey.

>>6164927
>>6164920
Specifically, parents apparently complained that instructions were not provided for the alt builds, resulting in unhappy children. That's why the only multibuild sets you see nowadays have instructions for all of the builds.

>>6164886
That's a really good alt, anon.The shaping is nice.

I don't suppose it can still upgrade the Battle Suits?

>>6164957
To be fair, alternate builds having their own booklet isn't a new thing, I have pic related and it has both instructions.

>>6164957
Does anyone have any legitimate citation for this, or is it just speculation?

I just assumed that "not paying the designers more money to make alt-builds" was just a cost-saving measure.

>>6164961
Yeah, parents do a lot of stupid shit sometimes, including assembling the sets and gluing them like they were model kits, but I have a hard time believing enough of them pressured Lego like that.

I miss the alt-builds too, even though I never built any they were good suggestions.

>>6164961
>>6164985
I always thought the alt-builds weren't there to give you something else to build, but just to show that the thing lego is good at is building other shit.
It seems kind of obvious that you can build whatever you want with lego, but it might still have been worthwhile telling people through the alt-builds.

Only to have those 1x3 bricks pop off every time I looked at them. Here's the current version; they hold together pretty well.

>>6164045
Hadn't noticed how much skin Babs was showing. I might just give up on hunting and bricklink one.

>>6164578
I grabbed 20 from a bunch that had already been thoroughly felt up. Only got Clan of the Cave Bat. Later tried feeling some at a different store and it seemed like every other bag was King Tut.

>>6164990
Same here. It's basically a visual way to show "Look, you can build all of these things... or anything you want!", because sadly enough, many people (not just ones born recently) have a hard time understanding that you can branch out beyond what the included instructions show.

>>6164985
Man, I've heard horror stories in here about adults Kragle-ing their kids' sets because "now they're built".

No no, you're not nitpicking, you're right. I was just using "city" as an overall blanket term. Having grown up in an Australian country town (which actually gets called a city despite a distinct lack of city-like features), a smaller scale display appeals to me more. Think something like Springfield, where kids have enough room to have tree houses in their back yard.

There is one person (colleague from my job) that i see as a father figure. We become a little more close lately. And he kind of caring about me. May be i can trick him into being my dad.

>doesn't a recent Avengers set have something similar, but that also flies?
IIRC the one in the Avengers set is more of a 70's muscle/sportster (don't quote me on that because I don't know shit about Avengers), the cars in the Batman movie seem to be firmly placed inthe late 70's- occasional compacts and smaller cars just coming out but lots of gigantic 8-wide full size road boats still on the road (New Yorkers, Delta 88s, LTDs, etc).

>>6165513
Also: Station wagons in the top left and middle. Why does Lego never make fucking station wagons?

>>6165319
So? What does it matter why people got into lego? My uncle would scoff at anyone who used any pieces made after the introduction of minifigures because "muh creativity and use of imagination"

When you try to belittle people for where on the timeline they gained interest, you're not "protecting" your hobby from "casuals" and you're not "keeping a gate". You're just sounding like an angry bitter old fart who is stuck in the ways of the past.

>Does anyone have any legitimate citation for this, or is it just speculation
Speculation. Others think it's where the brand series are more toyetic then older lines with games, shows, licensing and apps and some think it's them perfecting it by having lines that are the 3 in 1 and even Dimensions encourages this. And finally some guess what you do, that it's rather pointless to waste time/money showing off a design that isn't in the instructions.
To be blunt I doubt the anon(s) saying it was parents are correct because the solution would be to just pay the extra 10c to make the institutions or offer them online. Think about it, parents want the instructions of something you already pay to build, why stop all together?
Sadly you always have adult collectors that anytime there is change their knee jerk reaction is to blame kids today or parents of said kids rather than the scary truth that the world just changes, leaving them behind.

I've been trying to make a Jean Grey figure, but none of her costumes really translate all that well to purist figs. And I don't want to drop $200+ on a Comic Con exclusive fig, and I'm definitely not buying knockoff Chinese bullshit.

So which of these three better captures the respective version of Jean I'm trying to recreate?

but I'd work a bit more on that yellow torso.

>>6165540
I've been using this torso for a lot of my custom X-Men figs, but I was reluctant to also give it to Jean, because then Jean and Kitty Pryde would look like the same figure with different hair. Which I guess would be more accurate to Silver Age X-Men, when they all wore the same outfit, but there's a reason they changed it and gave them all distinct outfits, because it's visually more interesting that way.

this build looks fucking amazing.
Might be my first modular where i will not build a basic first suggestion

>>6165565
If you've got any big Technic figures, they supposedly fit right in that.

>>6165609
Its not a modular anon. Its a building sure but doesn't have any of the concept of it being a modular!

>>6165611
the buildings are starting to be built with similar side walks to the modulars

>>6165617
That doesnt make it a modular!
Modulars are a subtheme essentially, all designed clip together and 90% of tthe time add individual middle floors or even skip floors and just have roofs on the Ground floor!

>>6165617
That's not what makes it them "modulars." Modularity is what makes them modulars.

>>6165595
a little bit rough, but considering the parts. Its great. Cool plant.

>>6165617
Might as well call road base plates modulars as they are 32x32

>>6165620
>>6165621
>>6165624
I was just saying thats its easy to get confused as the creator line gets more and more buildings for city building

>>6165629
Its not confusing, just call them buildings anon, Lego is designed to fit together anyway. They are just new creator house. That with the right changes could actually make awesome modulars!

>>6165623

I shamelessely mix them.
I don't really add to the fleshy population, and even when I make figures from a video game or something I keep them yellow, but I don't particularly care if some people are flesh toned and some people are yellow. I also have (literally) black, pink, lime green and green skintones running about too. (in my sci-fi world, skin dye is as common as dying hair)

>>6165620
Not him, but these new Creator buildings do actually clip together- generally stuff like gardens and ponds and etc. are separate assemblies attached by a Technic pin or two to the main building.

>>6165663
What anon is saying is that legs in that particular color weren't in production at the time that the Wonder Woman figs were made. Red was one of the colors that happened to be in production, so it was cheaper to make red legs with flesh printing than to make flesh legs just for the WW sets.

The reason why the two Classic Space minifigs in the Exo-Suit are green is because at the time of production, there were three colors of torsos being made: black, red, and green (the green ones were TMNT, I think).

>>6165671
I was always like hearing about lego production.
At times it often seems less massive and more limited than I imagine.

>>6165671
>The reason why the two Classic Space minifigs in the Exo-Suit are green is because at the time of production, there were three colors of torsos being made: black, red, and green (the green ones were TMNT, I think).
You mean to tell me that for the period the Exo-Suit was being produced, out of ALL the minifigs Lego makes, every one of them only had a black, red, or green torso?

>>6165670
I was referring to the whole Clip to make a flush street gimmick desu

>>6165680
Maybe just the ones that were scheduled to start production the month that they started Exo-Suit production.

I think I read an interview with the AFOL who designed it where he said that they had the three colors to pick from and he chose green because we hadn't had green CS yet.

So, reviews are starting to come in for TLBM for those interested; it's looking pretty good so far.

Bob

>why isn't she your new waifig, /lg/?

Because she got dismembered so I could make other semicute minifigs with the parts

Am I stupid for not realizing sooner that the old Mr. Freeze head is perfect for Bizarro? Especially since he's supposed to have freeze vision. I don't feel so bad about not having the Comic Con one now.

>USC Slave I mods

Well, as long as we're on the topic, I have a few to share.

Aside from the obvious recolor mod (which is still unfinished waiting for 1 more bl order) I've gone ahead and done what is described in this EB thread, http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/117569-mod-ucs-slave-1-anti-droopbend-when-on-stand/ It's a great mod and definetly helps add to the stability of the build. 10/10 would recommend.

Next I added a gearbox to the wings, similar to the one used on the guns on the nose. I'm not to happy with this one at the moment though. They still have too much give and aren't as rigid as I'd like them to be.

The biggest gripe with the set was the flimsy side panels of the main body of the ship. I've thrown together this proof-of-concept Frankenstein mess of a thing to hold them down. It works great, but completely removes the ability to store carbonite han in the ship, so this is going back to the drawing board for now.

What the fuck.

>>6166125
It's because we got the Lego Batman Movie sets with the January wave.

Early screenings have been happening in certain countries this weekend. The movie's not really out until this coming week.

>>6166066
GOT THAT PURPLE LAMBORGHINI LURKIN' (wob)

>>6166016
Dang, those wheel wells are a bit too big and specific. They do kind of remind me of the technic hockey chest pieces.

>>6165846
Thanks, anon!

>>6166000
Fun. I Always like minimalist robots/mechs that use a ton of small pieces. Stays detailed without overdoing it.

>>6165608
>>6165595
>>6165635
i like it, its cute. i wish the marajuana pieces were either sideways or vertical, but thats nitpicking.
more leg tentacles would be good also, so it looks more like actual roots of the plant, but i personally have a whopping 3 of those, so you're already ahead of me in that part
something small to cover the spoke in the back would be nice also, but honestly its a cute little thing. adding more just could make it busy and/or much bigger quite quickly

They really need to make a better Rey figure. The blue throws it off as well as the face looking too generic. Maybe we'll get more accurate arm prints down the road.

Any advice on improving this dropship/troop transport type dealio? What I have is servicable but there's always room for improvement.

>>6165879
Its got an ugly black base with wheels.

>>6166115
I like it. The rear reminds me of the firefly ship

Lego batman movie torrent when. I do not want to wait till the end of march to see it.

Australia so it lines up with the school holidays.

Pick up a Battle Suit anon, they're great!

(Or a Mr. Freeze set if you prefer. That's great too.)

>>6166255
Well, I really like both A and C models.

>>6166290
i would say make it longer, three people shoulder to shoulder would be good. or at least break up the color on the side/greeble a bit, like you did at the top/top section of the side
the cockpit, and most of the yellow behind it is just a bit boring

breaking up that yellow is more important than making it longer though

Reminder to pick up your new year's rooster before Feb 12!

>>6165926
fuck watt rotten tomatoes think
that movie looks hard as fuck tho
id prolly give it a 100% when its out

>>6165982
i hate the minifig micros one
i might blow $200 -$300 when tax season arrives , they should make a regular minifig

>>6166339
>Mr. Freeze set
Not that Anon, but I hate that set.

Or rather, the price they ask for it here. That, Catwoman-set and Scarecrow's pizza taxi are like 30€ here. Not to mention that Scarecrow is S@H only.

glad to see lego is doing more buildings, the colourschemes aren't usefull to me personally (i'd like to see dark-grey and black as base-colours) but as a young boy houses and interiors were always the shit to balance out the vehicles i made.

Are these gonna be regular orange or orangish yellow?
[spoiler]sorta related story: I had this one sperg moment when i worked back at a museum shop again. Two coworkers were having a discussion about a poster for the current exhibition and what colour it was. "Dude it's orange!" "nah fuck you that is definately yellow" I had to bite my tongue all day because the colour was legit EXACTLY Lego's orangish yellow. #justautismthings[/nospoilers]

man that is a lot larger than it looks

I'd just generally look up more advanced techniques you can use for your parts at hand. And then look up some inspiration for the vehicle you are going for. The googledoc in the OP might have some links to lego building-techniques.
