I've been on a dragon buying spree.
Got Jay's elemental dragon, the morro dragon and fiery legend.
Fiery legend I have mixed feelings about it, it looks kind of weird if you don't put it in a flying pose. Might modify it a little.

That's pretty amazing. Probably bad for the environment ultimately, but still pretty cool. Can you imagine being a kid when it was first starting? Whole sets worth of parts just washing up on the beach in front of you.

And that dragon mold is still one of the coolest pieces.

I can't help but feel that with these two buildable figs, and then semi-new Nexo monster torso part seems to imply that Lego is testing waters to see if they're popular enough to phase out normal bigfigs.

I really hope not, because some characters are good for that scale (Gorilla Grodd, Thanos, etc)

Does the new WW fig use regular red and blue instead of dark red and dark blue?

>>6260985
The nexo monsters hit that scale pretty well though.

>>6260991

Simpson is actually a pretty mature show with lots of domestic abuse, drugs, and adult humor so I'm surprised Lego dropped sponge-bob shit and is now making Simpson sets.

This gives me hope tho..

>>6261015
>Simpson is actually a pretty mature show with lots of domestic abuse, drugs, and adult humor
have I taken a time machine back to the 90s

>>6261018
Homer strangles his son, drinks beer every episode, and uses adult humor.

Been watching Simpsons since I could remember its a good show but its not one that panders to children which is what Lego panders too.

>>6261028
My point is that those things were considered edgy and controversial in the 90's back when Simpsons was fresh, but they aren't anymore
lego doing the simpsons isn't surprising at all when you take that into account

>>6260938

Marvel still hates the Fantastic Four, so probably never.

I'm putting together some biker gangs (got two so far, another planned), just wondering what brick build motorbikes might look like? How hard would it be to fit one to scale? Should I just stick with the standard motorbikes lego does?

Lego is now making Galactus based on the 2007 film. He is an amorphous cloud of studs and that's it. Also no Jessica Alba minifig. The instruction booklet teases new Fantastic Four sets based on the 2015 version.

Looking for this technic piece on bricklink and can't find it for the life of me. It's basically like a regular bushing but it has an pin type of hole instead of an axle hole. Tried my best to draw it.

>>6261102
I think that it's design is classic, iconic, and even revolutionary as far as scifi goes. But since I've been a Star Wars fan for like 18 years, I'm very very used to the design. So I wouldn't pay money for something that to my sensibilities is kinda basic.

Remember all those Marvel sets. Most of them are ridiculous nad poorly designed.

Im kind of mad because i saw a thumbnail of it on Youtube and got excited because i thought we getting an awesome World War2 plane or something like that.
What a disappointment

>>6261517
If you don't have any other Batman stuff, I'd go with Dragon Forge, mostly because the building it comes with is amazing.

>>6261517
With Dragon Forge you get more volume of stuff. pretty fantastic looking building, decent dragon, more figs and tons of accessories.

Joker's Lowrider is a pretty solid set. Yeah, you only get one thing, but It's fun and sturdy and looks good on a desk.

Both are pretty great sets, I think it really comes down to how much you want to spend and what you'll be doing with the sets.

My vote actually goes toward the Dragon Forge. Love the building and the dragon isn't half bad. I hardly know anything about Ninjago, but I've been on a Samurai Jack binge lately so the asian architecture really pulls it off for me.

>>6261467
Looks similar to my cup from two weeks ago. I can't get enough. Do they have a set scheduled as when they change what is on the wall? Or how often?

Anyone?

>>6261535
I work at a lego store and I honestly have no idea.
I've seen the pick-a-model change every month and as such so do the pieces that go with the model, but outside that there's not much else I know.

>>6261482
Whites and grays that are mis-colored in Peroxide for 4 days in sun. Then all colors in mild dish soap and warm water then rinse. And yes pasta strainers, let sit, then spread out on bath towels in computer room where it is nice and warm. Drys in 10-15 minutes. Do small batches at a time with stuff i'm going to use.

Stay away from dishwasher, washer, dryer, etc. One wrong setting or you forget them and you got a mess. Or interesting art? LOL

>>6261538
Ahh. Soo the next model that's in the April store flyer. That's a preview of what will be new in the wall this month. I was wondering if they had a set day they changed it.

Nearest store is 2 hours away and I'd hate to waste the drive. I guess I could call and ask what's new??? Does that ever happen?

Shit, didnt notice the new thread, so ill ask in here.

Heres a weird one. I got the speed champions ferrari FXX speed champions set, and the instructions featured on the lego instruction site show a different set of gears than what it comes with to run the big fan blade.

Anyone else notice this?

Is this common with sets?

I had something similar happen before with the "ezras speeder bike" set, where the entire front fairing of it was completely different to what was shown in the instructions on the lego site.

no secret. i never liked how the cockpit is on the side, but not the middle. that's the cockpit right? anyway, it loses its symmetry

>>6261652

Defender anon points out that there are four different variations to his model (part of Designer Robobots) in regards to how it's built: leg plates facing inward, leg place facing outward, and whether the feet have holed blue 1x2s with black pivots stuck in them or two plain blue bricks, and whether the feet have 1x2 flats on the toes to act as stabilizers or not.

>>6261792
There's a piece of concept art that makes the layout make a lot of sense, the prongs clip onto a train of containers to push them, with a second 1300 on the other end. The offset cockpit lets the pilot see past, and the drives are centered which is what really matters.

>>6261792
from a design perspective that's to it's credit imo, if only in the sense that it stands out from every other grey square in-universe. most larger aircraft are piloted off-center, right?

>>6261804
i think i know what you're referring to, but is that original pre-1977 production ideas, or something after the fact?

>>6261822

Pre-Production wanted Han piloting the Tantive IV, which while not strictly a freighter has been used for cargo hauling in-canon as well.

>>6261804
That concept art is dated 2015. I like it, it makes sense, but I'm not sure if it's original intent or not.

I do like the thought of Han and Chewie flying the sooped up equivalent of a tugboat, though

I think the Speed Champions mudguards are a little large for that car, maybe use the city ones. The side skirts could probably be cleaner looking using modified plate pieces. I'd also make the B-pillars less thick, and maybe try to lower the car by using the 1-brick high car doors. All just my opinion, though.

It's a good start, anon!
As the others have said, it does look a little oversized, I imagine that's a side effect of using those specific mudguards.
Since you're building in 6-wide, you might want to look into this technique, it lets you seat two minifigures side by side, so your car could potentially be a 4-seater family car.
Keep on putting bricks together, and you'll only get better.

Nothing wrong with that except the boring roof. Too flat and uninteresting, but you could spice it up by giving it some roundness and a luggage wrack. If you're willing to make it a bit taller up top you can even make a sunroof. The Sandwich Shop set has a nifty little horizontal trick with a window that might work.

I'll be the critic here I guess; Wheels are small compared to car scale, roof, front and rear are not aesthetic enough,door opening backwards is odd, the 2x3 bricks could have been 2x3 windows, and as anon said, city>race champions mudguards for this.

But the I see where the design is coming from, it's not bad.

Looks a lot better already!
Height and proportions for cars is very important to me personally. Just a very subtle change can make it look a lot different, especially in minifig scale.
While the roof with the slopes in front already make it appear lower, I'd just see how it looks one plate thick. Making the doors and window also one plate lower will make the windshield look smaller and the car in general less tall.
The shape and size of the panel with rounded window in the back looks very out of place to me. Using the same panel you used as roof support between front and rear doors in trans-clear there will probably make it look more consistent.
I'd also shorten the wheelbase to max 6/7 studs and make the roof support between the doors 1 stud thick. Now it's just inbetween family van and limousine but not really either.
The final thing i notice is that front bumper is half a plate lower to the ground than the sideskirts. By using snot on the snotted bumper you could make the same height using plates and tiles.
These are just personal pointers though, buildling minifig-scale cars is very tricky and there is no one way to do it that is both the most detailed, stable and proportioned the best, so there are a lot of things you can only decide for yourself what is most important.

Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it. I'm afraid just about everything in the build is about as low as it'll go while still maintaining the ability to seat a minifig with hair (or a helmet). The windshield just can't be lowered, so I subbed in some cheese slopes to make the curve less abrupt, which still sorta fits the source material.

Also minorly updated the internals, sides, and the windows.

This is where Ghost Rider's flames coming off would be useful. Oh well, at least there is still Ultra Agents Infearno.

Sorting and getting read for more Samurai Jack.

Anyone have a list of the red creative box's contents, specifically the pink parts?

Ordered a Zombie Shark. Now I kinda need to go buy a Raid Zeppelin....for reasons.

Might be because he's trying to figure out why he is a ninja now?

But it was changed to the disc shape when Space 1999 came out, to avoid comparison.

>>6262594
What, did they make a Lepin Store set?

>>6262640
>ships that are basically just poles with engines on the end

Is there anything more boring in terms of ship designs?

>>6262650
Hey man, you make the ship into a spear to limit surface area and drag from space winds! Joking aside theoretically you could do it to limit the risk of flying into space debris. Also I guess spinning individual segments for 2001 style gravity?

>>6262656
>limit the risk of flying into space debris
>spinning individual segments for 2001 style gravity
Those are actually some pretty good points that I hadn't considered. Still though, doesn't make for a very visually appealing design.

>>6262395
I understood that reference.

That's Ole Kirk Christiansen's house.

Made by Lepin.

Where's this from? What's with all the random figs in the background?

>>6262702
lol that's hilarious

>>6262703
To me it looks like there are already chinese knockoffs? I could be wrong though. I'm only basing that idea on the fact that it looks like a display case in a shop, with Hong Kong currency price tags.

>>6262718
Yeah, we've already seen that spiderhelmet but I can't tell from the photo if they're bootfigs.

>>6261927
The tantive IV was the original design for the millenium falcon. Then lucas wanted to take it in another direction and pooped out the YT-1300

>>6262722
That must have been painful

>>6262599
What the fuck? What's up with that Hercules in the back?

>>6262726
He's a big guy

How bad are the price guides from Bricklink?

It seems a bit deceptive because theres a lot of sellers who list sets as sealed, complete, new, used, but write shit in the description like no minfigures, box, or only this portion of the set. How much do these listings make the price guide inaccurate?

>>6262737

The older the set, the less helpful the pricetag is. I can guarantee you that NONE of the Western sets are sold for their original price anymore.

>>6262702
Was he that fond of the color red or did they make a Red Chinese version?

The ThorFigs might be legit leaked minifigs that came from a Chinese factory being sold off early but the rest are bootlegs.

>>6262757
So China hasn't mastered the secret behind brown or maybe orange bricks yet. But they're working on it! Oh yeah, reverse engineering all the klocki...
