Ghost Costume Guy could have a funny ghost-themed t-shirt print on his torso that's not visible in promo images.

I've actually come up with CMF-style descriptive text for each one of these characters. Bug Suit Kid is like reverse Skeleton Guy because he doesn't see the problem with hanging out in Monster Town all year round. Zombie Cowboy is actually just a guy who went to a costume party and accidentally became a zombie.

>>mfw no more rogue one sets
Honestly they already covered all the important stuff in the first wave of sets, It'd be pointless making more. Especially now that the movie is done running its course. Hell, tlg's probably already finished designing the ep8 sets by now.

The only reason I would want more R1 sets is if they came out with a new Tantive IV set. The last full sized set was 2009, I think it's about time for a new one.

>>6278725
Based on the general quality of the Rogue One builds, a new Tantive IV would be amazing.

>>6278731
Hell, there's nothing even wrong with the old one, I just don't wanna have to deal with the absurd resale price is all.

I'd love for them to do a Hammerhead, "normal" or UCS.

Considering how awesome that one scene with it was, it wouldn't be a bad decision to make one.

>>6278802
Has there even been a Hammerhead set? I'd definitely shell out ~$70 for one.

>>6278808
There hasn't. If they ever did, it would probably be in the thousand+ piece range, so we'd see it go anywhere from 120-150 USD to be honest.

Would still get it, I loved that design since I first saw it in KOTOR.

>>6278813
It's a KotOR design? Why were Rebels using a 1000+ year old ship?

>>6278820
They aren't the same ship but they share design similarities, specifically the "hammerhead" shape. It's like how the arrowhead design of Star Destroyers traces its lineage at least as far back as Sith Destroyers from the same era.

Hi,

I've been a fan of MOCs for a while, and while I've made MFZ-style robots for a while, I want to try to jump into making a larger starship (minifigure proportions, hopefully) for my girlfriend's birthday, to celebrate a Star Wars RPG campaign we do.

Any tips for jumping into a larger MOC like that? Some resources for how to make good starships, what parts to look at, and so on?

Her birthday isn't for months, so I have time to practice with smaller builds beforehand. And I can always lower my ambition and just make a MicroFighters style build rather than an actual proportional build, if I just turn out to suck! :P

Thanks in advance for any help you guys can offer.

Gymsnor-3 light freighter. Deckplans: http://deckplans.00sf.com/CorelliSpace/Gymsnor3.html

I don't want the exact proportions of this ship - it seems like it's too ambitious for a first-timer like me - but I at least want the actual deckplan in there, so my girlfriend can put the crew where she likes, and whatnot.

A ship about the size of the one in your picture, maybe a little larger, is about what I'm looking for. (Love it, by the way!)

>>6278908
What are the hinges above the cockpit for? Does it open up?

File: IMG_12683c.jpg (1MB, 2398x2692px) Image search: [Google]

1MB, 2398x2692px

>>6278912
Doesn't look too difficult to reproduce in legos, though if you're going for decks and separate compartments it'll definitely be larger than mine. This thing is essentially hollow, with most of the inside space taken up by a planetary exploration vehicle. I probably could've added some bulkheads between the cockpit area and the rest but it would've restricted things.

You might have to limit your ship to a single deck, multiple decks gets really complicated and you pretty much have to design the thing to be opened up easily to access them, which can affect build stability. Best of luck with your ambitions anon, I'd be real interested to see it.

>>6278913
It does, I try to work accessibility into my starships wherever possible.

>>6278926
Oh yeah, the upper deck is like, purely engineering and stuff. My idea was that the separation point for access would let her put dudes in the lower deck, where all the interesting action is, but reveal the upper deck's stuff, as if the floor had gone 'transparent'. That stuff, since it only has to be seen from below, could be much smaller and representational.

Of course, her PC is the engineer, so she might want to have her minifig in the engineering stuff on the top deck... I'll just focus on the lower decks for now and see where my work ethic takes me. :P

Also, your ship is skinnier than I thought! I'd definitely have to go a bit wider in order to fit the outriggers and kitchen/fresher, but not too much wider, I think. Like I said, I think stuff like the cargo bay and whatnot can be really skinny. More to represent 'place' than 'size', if that makes sense!

>>6278933
To clarify: I was thinking it'd separate at the ceiling of the first deck, which would be the floor of the second deck. When it separates, it's revealed there actually isn't a floor - 'transparent' - but instead you can just see the bottoms of the engineering stuff, pretending it goes further into the ship when really it doesn't.

The bottom deck, since it only is accessible into open air, would then not have to be designed with headroom in mind. That lets me significantly slim down the height of the ship.

594KB, 1916x3586px

>>6278933
>>6278935
Yeah I can see that working out, definitely saves on height, might have to be more than a bit wider though to accommodate everything heh. That ship is the largest I've built, can't really see myself going much bigger as they start to become unwieldy dust magnets after a point, I like them to be minifig-friendly yet still swooshable.

They all have purpose as well in my headcanon, that starship is an obsolescent cruiser bought surplus by an ambitious corporation, retaining the older weaponry but fitted with numerous new components for its mission of seeking out resource-rich worlds for mining.

This ship here is operated by one of their subcontractors, a fast, well protected cargo hauler to bring back mined raw materials by way of shortcuts through wild space, dodging navigational hazards and outrunning hostile factions. Two drone craft can be deployed for defense or scouting purposes, the "tug" can also detach the cargo pod which can be flown remotely (another feature I'm fond of putting into my ships).

That'd be sweet as heck to have for gaming, much better than deck plans on paper eh.

Funny you mention the colors, that thing got started with this brown windscreen piece I couldn't find any use for, just doesn't fit with most colors, ended up having to BL some more brown parts to flesh it out.

This is one of my most recent builds, the Imperial/Nazi Germany colors were quite unintentional, it goes with the crew who are made up of that one lego soccer team with red, white and black jerseys. They turned a touring bus into an interstellar cruiser, specializing in communications, sensors, electronic warfare, snooping and detecting. They sell their services to any interested parties but will stop short of taking an active role in ongoing conflicts, at most they will provide services that are defensive in nature such as frequency jamming, early warning detection and communications relays or eavesdropping. Generally they're called on to search for missing ships, assist the Space Police in tracking down renegades and broadcast major sporting events across the sector.

>>6278997
The brown windscreen was one of my favorite pieces as a kid. I'm glad to see it put to good use.

>XATHGAR THE MANICIAL: A necromancer wielding the mighty STAFF OF MALICE to summon the undead for no apparent reason. He resides in an subterranean lair carved by members of a long gone race. (Build would be a cutout of his Necromancer's lair with plenty of old god relics)

>LADY MARIGOLD: A noble woman and last in her bloodline, but barren and unable to produce a heir. In her grief she stumbled upon the WAND OF SORROWS. She now raises her dead kin from their slumber to wander amongst her labyrinthine gardens to protect what remains of her fortune. (Build would be a garden with worn and crumbling fountains and gazebo)

>THE LOST QUEEN: A queen with no past and no kingdom, she roams the viscid roads of the marshlands with an army of unfortunate souls that died in the murky mud pits. Her weapon is mysterious as her, but few dare face the darkness it summons. (Build would be a battle caravan)

Phew. Couple of building sessions and almost a half liter bottle of vodka I'm done. This thing is massive. I can't even fit it in the space I planned. Now my options are either on floor where it would explode or top shelf of closet where I wouldn't even see it.

I still remember when Cafe Corner was released, never got it and entered dark ages some time after Green Grocer. I still want the corner but unless I win lottery it's a fat chance.

Now I kinda want to get another one, but my bank account would commit suicide.

>>6280064
>I can't even fit it in the space I planned.
haha, had the same. It's been balancing agains a wall next to my monitor ever since. Also considering getting another one, but the colourschemes tend to make parts-use for other buildings hard. I'm more of a dark and drab grey person for base colours, so the large percentage of white, tan and pastel colours scare me off a bit.
Assembly square looks absolutely excellent though, though i'd probably lose the fountain.

>>6280141
>Nice, remind me of one of the first mocs i posted here.
Looks good! Coincidentally I think I made the hotel in 2014, specifically October just before Halloween. My first semi-moc (based loosely on existing instructions for the Daily Bugle building) since coming out of my dark ages. Used old parts from when I was a kid, scratched and worn, so a haunted building seemed appropriate.

>>6280023

Alien Conquest: hard plastic asides from the head clinger pet thing which is rubber

All the creatures from Atlantis (both sharks, manta, the deep sea fish, crab, squid) are rubber though.

I thought so too, though I'd like a cape that's torn up, kinda like general magmar's I think it is.

Anyone ever get minifigs from a new set where the face printing looks slightly faded. Like the stamp didn't have quite enough ink. The detail is there but it doesn't look as saturated as it should. I have had it happen several times lately.

>>6280333
>not lego
>shitty normie memes in filename
out

>>6280296
Yes. It happened with some figures of the original Lego movie (another figure had a rather wooly print, almost like a drypoint etching), more recently the girl from the city pizzavan.

I pretty much forgot to contact Lego about these, but the girls face was rather boring anyway so ehh. I guess in case i need a replacement for a genuinely important part Lego won't think i'm scamming.

Found this for $30 and Spinlyn's Cavern for $10 at another Walmart. I'm planning to combine them into a mega cave this weekend. Also talk to a department guy at one of the Walmarts and he shared they are just getting online stock that wasn't moving and they were sending them to stores rather than keeping them online. He said there might one last truck that could have stuff on it but it won't be in till Tuesday. No idea if that applies to the list of stores given or even if those clearance items will be Lego sets but keep an eye out US east anons!

Why are minifigs so aesthetically pleasing. I love them. I like them all but my favorites are "original" ones. It sucks that most of them are in blind bags.

FUCK blind bags, seriously.

If they released a set of 16 for like 50€ or something, I would instantly buy it. But no, they have to be ultra jews.

With Castle, about a dozen different factions share similar parts so it's not much of a stretch to take a bunch of dudes and say that they're different from the other bunch of dudes that use the same equipment. Like how the Black Knights aren't technically villainous as opposed to the extremely similar Dragon Knights who are.

Think how pissed you be finding nothing and use that as a measure to if you should go or not. Because I only found the sets due to my habits of always checking clearance isle and just enjoy browsing retail stores in general. In irony if I decided to take the fast way to my VA office I may never have caught even the first sighting.

As far as I can tell, it's just like detailing on a a model kit, which is basically what Lego is anyway. Nothing wrong with a little heresy every now and then.

But yeah, cutting pieces is pretty bad

I started buying at the Lego store.

Then I found out about bricklink.

Then I liked amazon for the shipping but realized they don't even price match so money lost from amazon selling than selling for cheaper next day and more money loss from sales tax.

Then I realized I like Ebay as sellers trying to sell shit for months actually consider just selling their listing for a decent discount.

Is Ebay the last step on the pyramid of buying legos.

>>6281339
I like the animal sculpts and the armored fantasy ones

>>6281555
Bricklink is usually the best for prices and getting specific parts
eBay is a crapshoot

>>6281555
what about yard sales, flea markets, and craigslist?

>>6281562
very situational. Where I live there isn't anything on craigslist and I haven't seen any at the yard sales I've been too

>>6281555
Man you need to find a blog for your country that posts when sites have sales, some obscure online store selling things for 60% off is top tier stuff.

>>6281458
Lego has free shipping at that price level I think, may not be as fast though

>>6281562
>>6281570
Yup.
Bricklink is the way to go when it comes to getting particular parts. However... I am seeing that a lot of US based sellers here just don't have the quantities I need and Shop@Home is my last resort.

I have had great success in my Craigslist hauls as of late. Close to 120lbs in 3 weeks. You have to be fast and be ready to drive an hour+ if you want the good deals.

Yard sales - 0 on my end. I've never seen Lego at a yard sale in my life.

Ebay - I used to buy bulk parts on Ebay. Now that Lego is all mainstream again with their licensed crap it is not worth the $$$.

Can someone help me figure this out. I'm looking for the dark blue/gray 2x2 smooth tiles they use in the Creator Modular sidewalks. I see this on Bricklink. Is this what I need and is that the correct color?

Part 3068b Tile 2 x 2 with Groove
Part 3068a Tile 2 x 2 without Groove

What's the difference? What groove are they talking about???

Lego has them for .07 each while US based shippers have them for more.. Why?

You want 'with groove.' They'll be newer, cheaper, and of course easier to use.

pic related shows 1x2 tiles with and without groove. it was a design change to make disassembly easier.

>>6281617
The difference is that the version without the groove stopped being made back in 1978, with the grooved version being having been produced since.

Go for the grooved version, naturally.

Oftentimes, Bricklink prices are based on how available the piece is depending only on how many sets it's appeared in and the quantity that it appeared in those sets. That's why right now you can buy one of the silver heat-variant HAZMAT helmets for a buck on lego.com, but they're a few dollars each on cracklink because you can only get a few of them at a time if you're buying sets and parting them out.

A good example is the Bookkeeper minifig from Nexo Knights. It only comes in one big set, so it's really expensive on Bricklink, but it can be ordered for a much lower price directly from Lego.

For pieces that are currently in production, direct is often cheaper.

>>6281617
also, modular floors/sidewalks are probably going to be either dark bluish gray or light bluish gray. People ususally just abbreviate to 'bley' and now and then you'll get some oldfag wishing lego'd bring back the old grays.

man I wish Lego'd bring back old dark gray.

>>6281636
I miss old dark grey. It's perfect for making stuff appear worn or rusted due to that nice, warm coloration of it, but there's so many newer parts that only exist in dark bley and using dark bley and its bluish coloration makes everything look new and clean and futuristic.

Y'know?

>>6281628
>>6281631
I wish bricklink would date parts that are newer versions or something to differentiate them
I can't tell you how many times I bought a part to find that there was a way cheaper option available
But also bricklink isn't kind to people new to lego

After wearing a bunny suit in the hot sun all over the noon hour, I was a little pooped when I got back home so I didn't have the energy to do what I wanted. Instead I just made a bunch of shreepish derpimals. The descent of shreep is a long and tangled path, and several shreep-like animals are different enough to be considered species in their own right.

From top: a common shreep. Note the forward-placed eyes and vacant gawk typical of its breed.

Fancy Southland Shreep. The combined weight of its pronounced jaw and crown make this shreep unsuitable for heavy fieldwork.

Baggy-cheeked Full Shreep. The 'full' in this case refers to its high, thick rump. This breed is prized for its amount of meat. Nomadic herders often make a delicious stew from the well-portioned cuts.

Spring-tailed Rock Shreepa. Rarely seen, as its preferred habitat is inhospitable mountain crags at extremely high altitudes. Folklore says it hoards treasure, but it's probably just a dumb animal.

Working Southland Shreep. A large, sturdy beast popular in regions where buckows are unsuitable.

Black-tufted Mountain Shreep. Unlike the more commonly known Mountain Shreep, the Black-tufted Mountain Shreep's horns have grown far past the edges of its skull in an impressive display that causes a ton of problems if they get stuck in a wooded area.

Bristle-backed Shreemp. Originally bred to miniature size during a short-lived fad among a vanished caste of nobility, it has proven a tenacious survivor due to its ability to digest even more than the common shreep and its ability to reproduce three months after birth. The heavy tusks are anchored to a thick set of shoulder muscles, allowing it to dig its way through most obstacles on its incessant quest for food.

Short-statured Sharphorn Shreep. A relatively recent breed, its lineage can be traced to the original crossing of a mountain shreep with a dwarf shreep. It fares poorly in the wild.

>>6281787
I mean pick a brick light gray, medium gray, and dark gray. But no blue gray. ???

>>6281802
Lego doesn't call it blue gray; that's how Bricklink categorizes it. In the old days there used to be light gray and dark gray, but several years ago Lego shifted their color palette and made the grays more blueish. Lego still calls it "gray", but Bricklink call it "bluish gray" to distinguish it from the original gray color.

>>6281805
OK these are the light blue gray and dark blue gray?

Exact Color: Dark stone grey

Welcome to modern Lego. Everything is awful.

Every one of your minifigs has a right leg that's easier to move than the left leg and they all came that way.

>>6281900
I prefer top. Rounded (more or less) is more typical of cars anyway. Which I suppose might be a good reason to go with bottom?

That's pretty cool! I've only seem something like that once where the local Wal*Mart discovered a bunch of Harry Potter sets in the back stockroom, the Hagrid's Hut one. They were each ~20 bucks, I can't recall the exact price since it was back in 2014. I bought three of the damn things but only opened the one whose box was damaged.

Not really sure what to do with the other two. I figure when Castle returns again they might serve as a village display.

Minifigs were always prone to breaking. I have many broken torsos/arms from 80s.

>>6282036
Sad but true. I've dug out my old collection and I've been trying to piece together some old space figs. I managed three original yellow spacemen but the torsos are a mess. Barely legible insignia, scratches, gunch. Breaks my heart. I only managed to get one in decent condition so far but his legs have next to zero tension so he just flops forwards or backwards if you so much as look at him funny.

All of classic space torsos WILL wear off. Also it's pretty far-fetched to think that 30 year old figures will be in mint condition if found in a random parts bin.

Also Benny was literally referencing this.

>>6282051
Just imagine they are 60 years old veterans, give them rusted ship and send them to fight unspeakable horrors from ancient times, because modern youth are all pussies and cannot handle the challenge.

>>6282064

Stressmarks like that appeared since the begining of minifigures. My Space guys from 87 have them as well.

I actually have a decent blue spaceman who survived the 80s (sadly none of the original helmets made it). I also modernized his head because why not. The yellow torso's printing looks better with the camera flash, it's harder to see in standard light conditions. I included the greens from the exo suit because it's interesting how they've increased the size of the printing.

It gets better from then on. Four original Blacktrons, 10 Blacktron II (four with the white booster/gun thing), 3 black Futuron, 1 blue Futuron (minus blue tank since I only had one spare), about 9 M-Tron but only 4 fully built, and three Space Police II (two captains and 1 regular). I used to have a bunch of space police, no clue where they got to. Found an original red spaceman torso that's really super faded too so I'll rebuild him today or Monday. Everything else is in pretty decent shape. Some minor print damage here and there. The bigger issue is cracks on the side of the torso but that just makes some of the arms swing a little loose. Nothing too bad.

Agreed. I figure working astronauts would have their share of suit damage, but some of the print loss is so bad you can barely tell what they are. Worse with the poor yellows since nearly all of the yellow legs I have are in extremely bad condition. No tension, cracks, so on. But hey if none of the legs work just cyborg up that shit with bricks and make a weird spider walker to nest the torso in. Space, man, it'll fuck you up.
