I was sorta embarrassed going up to buy a few since this is the first time someone besides my close friends or family has seen me with Lego, but then I remembered she got engaged at graduation and then her fiancé ran away and she dropped out of college and felt better about myself.

Then I got all three of the Gong Rockers in the box, so, karma I guess.

Also got two cereal Lloyds, Green Ninja, Zane, Wu, Jungle Garmadon and Pajama Garmadon.

Not a feature on my old camera because it's just a cheap point-and-shoot. Not a feature on my new one either, because it's just a newer point-and-shoot from 2016 instead of 2008.

A nice DSLR would have an adjustable F-stop, but I picked this because I need a tiny camera to be able to shoot Lego Quest at extremely close range.

Is get a bunch of Skelton arms that are the "bent with clips" kind (part 93609 and 93061)
I think they're the best looking and best to pose out of skeleton arms. The droid arms like in your pic are too long and can't hold things in a neutral position well.
Also like the other guy said, ninjago has some good skeleton parts, though some of the heads are too cartoony for me (but may work for an ogre Skelton or something)

I just got hit by a mountain of regret for not picking this up. It was something I thought looked good, but not something I should absolutely have: Around that time I was also very indifferent about Ninjago in general.

DO IT anon.
Lego sets usually go up in value, even stupid polybags and crap.

This set, the Monster Fighters Ghost Train (reminds me of FF6, heh), OG Ecto-1, and Space Limo are all sets I regret picking up.

Not every single set goes up in value. First few waves of Ultra Agents are still relatively cheap on after market, for example.

>>6484627
Why spend money you don't have to?
I only warned because I've done the same. I want a set, don't get it for whatever reason and then kick myself later when I could have saved a couple bucks.
And let's not use ultra agents as a example. Most people don't care for it. People really really like ninjago

Are there no new, small point and shoots with that type of thing? I've got an old Canon Powershot SX130 from close to a decade ago that's nigh-unkillable (it survived being carried unprotected in the front pocket of a backpack for years), small and nearly flat profile when it's off but with a full mode dial including program, aperture/shutter priority and full manual. I went looking for a similar newer camera and apparently every brand- not just Canon- has completely gotten rid of the 'tiny but full features' camera market, you either get a compact point and shoot with automatic only or you get a 'small' superzoom with a fuckhuge lens and still no manual.

>>6484833
>What camera did you get?

I looked around for the smallest camera I could find that had the most ability to do close-range macro stuff, but ended up getting a Canon PowerShot Elph 360 HS, upgraded from my old Canon PowerShot Elph SD790 IS. The thing I really love about PowerShot Elphs is their great ability to take macro pics. I picked this model specifically for its large depth of focus compared to similar cameras that met all the other specs.

I have a Canon DSLR that I use for my job, but I brought it home one weekend to test out and it was way too bulky for shooting minifigs, so that was right out even without having to buy a special macro lens for it. These PowerShot Elphs are nice because they're so tiny and the lens is set low enough that you can easily shoot from below minifig eye level.

If you're looking to take pictures like >>6475167 where you're fairly far away from the model, then a DSLR is probably best.

Trying to make this posable by swapping out the floppy joints for more sturdy ones, but I'm running into issues with the back half of the body being to heavy to be posed. I've tried clicking hinge joints and a large ball joint but they can't hold it up very well. I guess I could transfer one of the clicking joints from the neck and see if that works, but I may just deal with needing two supports to hold it in a flying position (probably a good practice anyway)

Why does the Lego site have Pick-a-brick and Bricks and Pieces as two separate things? Is there a difference?

>>6485922
Anon, I've got the Viking ship and it is a nice set, but i'm quite sure the Haunted House has more pieces and details.
Go for the house.

>>6486279
Pick-A-Bricks tend to be more common/popular/generic pieces. They're sometimes cheaper and iirc, you can earn VIP points on them. I think they tend to be intended more for the in-store experience, where you can grab a cup and just fill it from various bins of parts.

Bricks and Pieces are really intended more for specific or specialized replacement or otherwise spare parts.

Is it possible to get or approximate a normal minfig torso with missing arms on LDD?

pic quality is dependent on lens a lot more than body, but i'll agree go for nikon, canon is making all their lenses have that stupid free-floating focal ring which means 1. no manual adjustment without the camera being powered on and 2. no muscle memory or tactile feel for when you're at the end of the focal range

functions i dunno, the magic lantern custom firmware for canon DSLRs adds a fuckload of extra functions

OK, another observation.

They DEFINITELY did something with the plastic quality. Trans green pieces feel really cheap and loose on the baseplate and the 1 figure ive built so far feels like the cheaper quality plastic used before now on con exclusive/one off/polybag figures.

>>6487271
FUCK YOU i want a sugar momma that buys me LEGO

>>6487259
Those are definitely Chinese figs, going by the necks. Odd that the standard brick would be lower quality, though.

>>6487279
So far its the wing/wedge plates and the trans green plates from bag 1 that I have noticed the weird feeling on them. And as someone who has built like 4 of the lepin modulars, a couple of their pirate ship knockoffs and has bought a TON of chink minifigs, yeah, the feeling is very similar.

Didnt lego say they were opening a new official factory under their brand in china? I know they use factories for stuff like baseplates and CMFs, but I seem to remember them opening an "official" one not too long ago.

>>6487274

>>6487288
Heh, working on it! Weve been through a lot together but so far its all good.

>>6487291
Eh, to be fair, I have to believe based on knowledge of how those factories work, lego were essentially caught between a rock and a hard place. Basically "If you want to use OUR factories for anything, there are going to be knockoffs". Apple have had to deal with that shit for forever now.

And I also wonder if maybe this is them testing some different types and mixtures of plastics, maybe working towards that "biodegradable" bricks meme dream that they have.

>>6487295
>"biodegradable" bricks meme dream
This scares me. I was doing yardwork last week and found a minifig from my childhood that had been lost/buried in a big house cleaning years and years ago and somehow worked its way to the surface, and you're telling me rather than finding that robot-faced, mismatched-leg remnant of my innocence Lego would rather have it turn into potting soil?

>>6487297
As far as I know, biodegradable plastics require a significant quantity of heat to degrade. Shouldn't be an issue for Lego unless you're building inside a thermal composter.

>>6487297
All in the name of "environmentally friendly".

Like I said, its a meme dream. Lego is meant to last, stand the test of time, outlive us all.

AYYs landing here thousands of years after our deaths are meant to find our creations, still pristine (maybe a cracked torso or two). But because of "muh environment".......blah.

They're not making them out of biodegradable plastics, which are made using oil. Their stated goal is to cease using oil for Lego production, so what they're likely doing is looking into bioplastics (plastics made from renewable plant matter). No need to blow a gasket just yet.

Ive bought a bunch of chink sets that while they FELT different, they stick and work just like good ol dane plastics do.

I don't know.

Also it turns out he isn't from one of the water sets, he's from that Insectoids theme, specifically this lil' guy 'cause he was only in two sets and I sure as hell didn't have the larger one.

Yep, black mark indicates it's of Danish make.

That peasant torso isn't unique to Ninjago City, which could be a factor. The red torso is unique, as far as I know, and features arm printing, which is more commonly found on CMFs. Check the other unique figures as well for the black mark and general quality; it'd be interesting to see the distribution.
