I was thinking of DIYing Vuutun Palaa. make one as a vehicle and work on building scenes inside it as separate work. how much shit am i gonna need for it?
>>11631306one million dollars
what does the interior of Vuutun Palaa look like? we got a map?
maybe do one, once it explodes
>>11631306Lego video game did a $10,000 versionhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vl3QSynvoZ0so many quotes from this scene"now THIS is podracing!"
>>11631272I thought this was a fucking eceleb spam thread and about to lose my shit until I realized it's just a lego model caveman in a creepy warehouse again
>>11631392Welp, seems like that guy’s gone doe an hour or two, check out this thing I found in some bricks I bought yesterday, washing them all so had to disassemble everything
Let's say hypocritically I found the Cloud City Boba Fett in near perfect condition somewhere in my parents house, how much money am I looking at here?
>>11631533abou 5$ because it will be a fake one
Asking here just because the local legomaniacs might know. I've ordered some Bionicle (and a Throwbot I think) for my brother for Christmas. They are used, but have the canisters, and I plan on "repacking" them just to give him the joy of getting to open them "for the first time" (or close enough, though he will be awares of their used state. I'm not rich enough for that.)So my question is: Is there somewhere I can go to find a comprehensive list and images of everything they were packed with?Bonus points if you guys know where to find like some small bags I can put the parts in that aren't, ya know, like sandwich bags. Ones that feel like the lego bags, and that I could possible seal shut with either heat or glue.
>>11631565Seal wrap, or something
>>11631565For Bionicle sets, I'm like 98% sure that the pieces were just loose in the canister, no bags. And the instructions were just curled along the inner wall inside.I remember The Metru Nui the best, and I'm fairly sure that was all that was inside.I got curious myself while typing this out and I found a video covering the Toa Nuva:https://youtu.be/rGolSD0i7rM?t=52Pretty much what I remembered minus the mini catalog.
>stickers for eyesStickers peel off...
>>11631533the blue boba one is better
Why do white pieces yellow? Even with no sunlight entering the room? I thought lego was the best...
>spend $170 to get a neat $25 set they won't sell to you directly>nothing good is on salewow! lego is super gay.
Why we don't have january reveals yet? I wanna see the new monkie kid and ninjago sets
Any good mocs that use the giant ass rock ball piece? I wanna hit stuff with rolling ball
>>11631533I got about $1400 for mine and I just went for the lowest reasonable price to get a fast payout. If you're willing to be patient, you can get around $2000, I've heard. Mousecucks are crazy.
>>11631748Did they ever explain why they printed him in the first place?
Guys, as the toy industry is dying and construction toys seem to be the ones that will survive as the action figure market seems to be over, will lego be in danger? Because competition is rising with mattel brick shop and jazwares bldr
>>11631728wonder when they are just going to make stickers for minifigs
>>11631751How is it that BLDR is allowed to sell exact copies of LEGO's moulds and not get sued into oblivion? I think if BLDR ever becomes a legitimate threat to LEGO's business they won't be around long.
>>11631755So they can’t bionicle
>>11631755Lego doesn't have a patent for bricks so all companies can do it. Lego only has patent for their minifigure design. That's it. They can't sue shit on their molds.
>>11631751Bldr are getting care bears and monster jam licenses in 2026
>>11631760Basic bricks I'd understand but these are 1:1 copies of the circular saw blade, Mixel joints, curved slope with lip, grille, crystal, and I even see the rock that Pohatu came with. The only difference is that BLDR is probably lower quality.
>>11631728They will fix it when they do the live action cars sets.
Tip: if you miss part. First thing you can do ischeck your paper or vinyl bag. Then, dig up categorized part>>11628311when i assemble G 500 I missed small part and forced to next step, however, i found missed part when i cleaning up.. Fortunately, it doesn't affect on model much
>>11631766I actually own bldr, they are the same as lego, stop shilling lego, they aren't that good anymore.
>>11631772Bldr needs to make some hinges, gears, and pneumatics or other discontinued non powered parts then, you think they could do new monorail parts or those track roads from the 2000’s racer sets? Or weird pre-bionicle technic build stuff? Those bizarre bits are the stuff I love getting
>>11631755What color that ski?
>kept putting off buying Santa's Post office>its retired nowSHITAlso fuck the holiday train its a shitty set and 3d printed pieces are garbage
Should I buy the toy story train set?
>>11631728This is super dumb. Like, isn't that actually for kids who would play with it?
>>11631735It's some bromide compound used as flame retardant that slowly oxidizes. So, well-ventilated, warm spaces facilitate yellowing. Storing your Lego in oxygen-free atmosphere is preferable, or airtight.
>>11631728>muh lego can't print white on redOk, but how could they print it years ago? Is it a lost art?
So, lots of prints but everything that says Delorean or DMC is a sticker, and the black lines on the side are.
I really hate when Lego puts their parts in paper bags.When I miss some parts, it always gets stuck on the damn paper. srsly, this must be illegalized.
>>11631272I am not a toy collector or a reseller, but I have a few unopened old sets that I'm afraid of opening and enjoying because they might lose value. Darn.
>>11631926>I'm afraid of opening and enjoying because they might lose valueopening and enjoying them IS the valueyou can get money some other way
>>11631942>>11631926I hate spacemen
how many bricks to make realistic size version of the drill? possible to get custom mini figures?
>>11631744none that i'm aware of. i suppose that means you'll have to design your own...>>11631811seems kind of translucent orange to me. ice planet inside agent in bldr?
>>11631979Lets see the worms try and swallow this harvester!>>11631942>>11631972I was going to open them but ten years flew by in the blink of an eye and now they are old. They are70788 Kopaka Master of Ice70789 Onua Master of Earth71316 Umarak the Destroyer30591 Ninjago Titanium mini mech70366 Battlesuit Lance70362 Battlesuit ClayI haven't been able to enjoy playing with toys for many years.

2002 was peak lego star wars
>>11632016Agreed. I wonder why they stopped producing chrome LEGO?
>>11632029lego cut back on a lot of shit in 2004 during their bankruptcy scare chrome, along with numerous other colours like grey, dark grey, purple, turquoise, etc were among the casualties
>>11632016lego star wars was a genuinely good theme for lego from 1999 - 2004, it looked and fit in with the rest of lego2005 - 2008 is less good but still pretty decent, although it's when fleshies were introduced (late 2004 technically but 2005 was the first full year)after that we got cw sets for a long time and clone autism became a thing, before that clones usually were either one per set or had 2-4 in a big setsiirc the cheapest set with a clone before 2007 was the scout walker from 2005, and that had an obscure clone type that has only ever been in that one set
>>11631272There is a curse when it comes to lego youtubersTheBrickshow = banned for 1 leak while other channels could continue to spread the leaksTheBrickQueen = destroyed by MandR and never recoveredJust2good = a likable nerdy guy with a girlfriend turned into a degenerate transgender furryTieTheLegoGuy = vanished, rumored to be deadJangBricks = never the same after the famous road accident, went crazy over time, ditched his lifework (jangcity) and is hating lego more and more every day, while praising off-brands like the second coming of christ.
>>11632075You should add RR Slugger (Made a video about transparent bricks, to talk about troon shit and ha underage troons in his Discord server) and Mand R Productions (became an obnoxious faggot) to the list.But yeah, the Lego fandom is cursed. Ashnflash is probably the only good one left.
>>11632068There’s technically another one with the 91st like that one, just it looks way differentAlso JESUS FUCKING CHRIST6 dolla shipping but JESUS CHRIST
>i buy under 18+ legos>as an adultwhat is wrong with you?
>>11632075>>11632086No one asked about your cringe e-celebs.
I would prefer custom elves dragons molds instead of whatever eceleb shit is going on
Also another victim of acid, not as smelly though at least
the blacktroon renegoon is mine... at last!
Back to thinking about weird parts
>>11632016I really hate the downsizing of most modern sets.I'll just stick to the 20-year-old ones I guess.
>>11632192>the downsizing of most modern setsum..... modern sets are huge.
>>11632196I meant the star wars ones. Specifically the play sets, because USC exists I guess.
>>11632207I hate stud shooters so much they ruin the look of every build that includes them. Basically an instant skip for me when I see them.
>>11632207what's the point of adding lama su to the set? why not obi wan so kids can play out the scene in the movie?
>>11632086I've barely seen RR Sluggers stuff. What little I have seen makes him sound like someone I would punch if I talked to him IRL. Everything about how he talks makes him sound like a condescending prick. He sounds like the guy that "All my opinions are facts" meme was invented for. In fact, can someone make an RR Slugger image like this one?
The brick separator sticker technique kind of sucks. It isn't easier but it does make it easier to lift and replace. Maybe I need better lighting.
>>11632234You'd have 2 obi-wans when you buy obi-wan's ship.
>>11632250so what?lego used to have the main characters in multiple sets all the time
>>11632253The actual reason is that they want you to buy both.
>>11632259Or they want AFOLs to buy it for the glup shitto.
>>11632249What about the brick seperator bionicle eyestalk technique
>>11632075I've been out of lego for ages and only just came back in, but what happened with Jang? I recently looked him up again, and the dude seems to have fragmented his content across several different channels...
>>11632331He went insane, and one of the local spammers has a fetish for him.
>>11631272Technic will never be real lego
>>11631272You lads like trains, right?https://beta.ideas.lego.com/product-ideas/8b964aca-6f3d-4d15-91ac-23a8949de9f8
>>11632373Only $14,999.99
>>11632086>>11632236I stopped watching his videos when he said police were controversial or something. I just couldn't take him seriously after that. And also he calls his girlfriend his "partner."
>>11632086Glad I avoided that video, I assume it was "It's Not Easy Being Trans Neon Green"? Red flags all over that title.
>>11632373>>11632394Lego Ideas is what killed Lego (for the casual fan):--all the gazillion-piece entries that consistently get 10,000 votes--Lego thinks it's a joke, due to "beautiful model" of course would get lots of votes, but nobody would buy a set that big, would they?--what the heck, Lego tries a gazillion-piece, beautiful model. (LoTR Elf village thing)--it sells like crazy??????--screw it, looks like the people really DO WANT gazillion-piece, multi-hundred dollar sets--Lego makes more $400+ sets, sells well enough, repeat...thanks, Lego Ideas site!!!
Apparently we are getting another 18+ wicked set in 2026, rumoured to be the green train from part one.
>>11632418You could say... in the end... MOCs ended Lego as we know it.So next time when some fag says "shut up, post a moc" you should tell him to fuck off.
>>11632422Wow another set I'm never gunna buy :P
>>11632423>You could say... in the end... MOCs ended Lego as we know it.it was the Crazy Rich People who bought the $400+ setseven poor Lego collectors, over time, will amass enough bricks to build something large and impressive, those people can't buy the $400+ setsit's hard to tell, just from the MOC, if it was made by a rich show-off, or a poor person who struggled and prevailed
Why no Demogorgon? Why is LEGO doing this? It’s the same reason I didn’t buy the Krusty Burger set, why not include the entire Simpsons family in it? I was in my “dark age” when the Simpsons theme came and went, and I didn’t have the money. I was like 12 then.As for Stranger Things, I didn’t like it when the Byers’ home released because I had never watched the show until this month, when my girlfriend said we should try it—and we both loved it. So I don’t have a Demogorgon! Why not include it in the set? And no Hopper? No Joyce either?Will they make more playsets, or is this the only one we’ll ever get? Just2Good said we won’t get another Simpsons set because Krusty Burger sold poorly… so what about Stranger Things then?
>>11632436>we won’t get another Simpsons set because Krusty Burger sold poorly… so what about Stranger Things then?THIS is the maddening thing about Lego(if this is true)Lego makes a $200 set that shelf warms, and concludes that people don't want The Simpsons sets.------people would have bought it, if it was NOT TWO FREAKING HUNDRED DOLLARS!!!I was also in a The Lego Store and lol'd at the child (10-ish?) who sheepishly asked his mom "Why is The Simpsons set for grown ups?" like, the kid wanted a The Simpsons set. true story broD'oh!
You fags need to stop salivating over literal who e-celebs and their gay opinions
>>11632423There's a difference in designing and tinkering with your own moc, making it work with the pieces you have or hunting down pieces you need in sets or bricklink stores, or simply buying a ready made set with instructions for toddlers even if it's technically big.
>>11632439Simpsons is now Fortnite material
>>11632454They even did Moe
Where are the avatar fire and ash sets?
>>11632448The spammers of them aren’t gonna stop until the soil’s tilled
>>11632457What?
3 netflix avatar sets coming in june 2026
Is there a reason why you made a new thread when the old one wasn't at bump limit yet and then you didn't even link it?
>>11631272I think LEGO teaches you life lessons.I made a few mistakes while building the G500, and I fixed them.The process required judgment and decisiveness.Not only that, but it also required skills like managing parts, controlling assembly speed, concentration, disassembly, and accuracy.I couldn't accept the fact that I had made a mistake. So I tried to rebuild it from scratch, (did it once on yamaha)but I felt that was foolish. I had already fixed the problem somehow, and it wasn't a major issue. It wouldn't be easy, but I decided to just move on.I wondered:Why do humans ultimately make mistakes?
>>11632557Spammas gonna spam
ugh what could have been
How the fuck don't we have any new info on the new 2026 Sonic sets? (besides their names)Lego sonic feels like so much missed potential
>>11632656Apathy to leaks.
What sales are we expecting for black friday?
>>11632570When I was a kid I built the Time Cruiser boat then swooshed it through the air so fast I tumbled over the stairs and broke if immediately
>>11632236>Everything about how he talks makes him sound like a condescending prick. He sounds like the guy that "All my opinions are facts" meme was invented forYou dont need to make a meme.This was like 5 paragraphs long just be thankful I only posted one.
At least by encouraging trannies to buy overpriced 90s lego sets it means that money isn't being spent on HRT...
This video is 7 months old and the guy is still fighting people in the comments.f thr most milk toast opinions I've ever seen. this is just sad.
>>11632336
>>11632781I wish you would die.
>>11632727I was just at a Target they had BF sales going onthis poop-wiener carts set was $25 (43% off)I almost got it for the road plates and that magenta hair piece but I passed because...poop-wiener reference"she" is not wearing pink/light blue, but does it still matter that the "girl" is driving the wiener cart?shockingly, this set does NOT come with the brown poop swirl piece (??!!) but it does come with a poopy-brown spider (??!!) is that better or worse?I might still pick it up later. I mean, I don't HAVE to build the toilet. the little cart pieces look fun to build aroundlmao this whole post sounds like a freaking ad, whatever, I'll post it anyway. I don't care what you buy or not
>>11632786Are you serious?That's not really nice.The Lego community is inclusive, no reason to wish someone dead..
>>11632797You should have been in the wreck.
can we just get entire sets with nothing but mini figures, so we don't have to buy kids sets.
>make PAB order on the 11th>don't see any shipping updates until the 22nd, after I bought some LEGO setsI see how it is...
Can we just get entire sets without minifigures so we don't have to buy expensive vehicle sets?
>>11632766>maybe we shouldn't be pushing this stuff onto kids>you want to genocide me, you think I shouldn't exist!Why do they always do this?
>>11632766Why do these fags always get on a soapbox an act like you're demanding trannies be sent to Auschwitz just because you don't want to hear anymore about these sexual minorities who get shoehorned into fucking EVERYTHING. There is a time and a place, you don't just get to start talking about this shit unprompted without anybody groaning about it. Go to reddit if that's what you want, Slugger, 'cause this is YouTube.
>>11632978It’s a death cult.
I just spent like 200 dollars at Barnes and Noble for more Star Wars shit that will take forever for me to get to building because it's retiring soon and I need it now. Am I mentally ill?
>>11633020nopefuture-you will thank you for getting it nowlater it would have cost 3 times as muchthat's how ALL Star Wars sets sell, by the way. the only reason people buy them is to avoid paying a lot more later(it's not logical, but it's true)
>>11633024Oh come on it's not tha-OH MY GOD
>>11633022Yeah, any star wars fan is
People that collect Star Wars and minifigs are lame as hell. Lego is not made to be played with. I hate when people talk about “play features”. The only reason I got into Lego is because they started making beautiful objects which are nice to display. simple as.
>>11633057Nice deflection but star wars is actually the root of all these issues. If it weren't for licensed lego taking off in the first place we wouldn't have hordes of normies wanting "thing, but lego"
>>11633063The Lego gameboy is a work of art. I would rather have the Lego gameboy than the homosexual knight’s castle
>>11633022>>11633024Yeah, pretty much. Whenever I see a SW set that I play to build some day in the future I buy it before it retires even if it ends up sitting in the attic for 5 years. It's retarded, yes, but I don't want to be paying extra just because bricklink untouchables said it's worth that much because of the one Glup Shitto fig.
halfway done the Droideka atm
>>11633079I remember seeing this set in the stores and wondered if I would want it after going to the theme park, I passed on it, and now that I've been to the theme park, it's too late.I find it strange that Lego has not done any other sets for the Star Wars Galaxy's Edge. They could have done a few sets (or even just 1?) for the expensive Galactic Starcruiser
>>11633088They probably don't sell well enough. Why have it take up shelf space when they can just make another buildable Bingo Glorbo (a remake of a set that retired 3 months prior).
>>11632781I'm glad someone finally convinced this dude to grow a mustache
i just want mini figures from sets, not the sets
>>11632192>>11632207>out of mere curiosity check out comparisons for the newest star destroyer> It says it all really.It's even funnier when you look at all 3 price tags, and it's exactly what you'll expect as well.
>>11633057By assembling the model and figuring out how to best display it, you are in fact extracting joy from it.
>>11633057>t. king of normalfaggots
>>11633106If only there was a marketplace where you could buy only the minifigs...
>>11632399Have you ever wondered why no Harry Potter sets are ever featured on Slugger's or Jang's channels? Yes, it's exactly what you are thinking, and they have outright confirmed this.
>>11632402>Red flags all over that titleNo way you don't get that reference to Kermit, and TLG's terrible treatment of colors. The tranny shit though, comes from a way later video
>hide an unique color of a piece inside a set, that's never going to be seen, as an easter egg>the budget for this easter egg could be used elsewhere, but we do it 'cause it's funnyIt's not the first time Lego Minecraft line does this kind of shit, I don't disapprove, but I don't understand it either.
>parts from my PAB orders getting pulledcastlecucks can't catch a break
I just bought Blacktron Renegade at $90 and now it's $60. Worst fucking timing ever.
>>11627365>>11627522>>11627300>>11627308Thank you for your advice, see: >>11633146
>>11633171He only knows weird sounding Kermit.
>>11632399As in the actual lego police sets? What a fucking faggot.Also it's fairly normal in some countries to refer to your wife/fiance as partner.>>11633166>Yes, it's exactly what you are thinkingI have genuinely no idea, please elaborate.
>>11633166And yet somehow consistently those sets sell year after year… almost like kids and parents don’t care about jkr troon drama.
>>11633234Pink money hates JK Rowling because she said there’s no chicks with dicks only dudes with tits and has stuck to her guns.
This ship looks so different every time they re-do it I genuinely do not know what to think of it.But if you held a gun to my face I'd probably say 2011 is the best looking one.
