>>11867978Certifiable bruh moment.
>>11867995This is not the lego thread people wanted, but the lego thread the people deserve
>>11867981I'm very confused. Is this pixel art, or a very big Lego sculpture, or AI meant to look like the latter?
>>11868015Very big lego sculpture from Wales, just image is crusty
>>11868022Ah. Yeah, much clearer.

>>11867978Found my old sebulba pod racer
>>11868275Surprised more people haven’t tried doing models of some older stuff in that weird statueish style, would be cool to see somebody do an one-off space thing where the bad guys are a bunch of non articulates like Sebulba and that one other guy
>>11868175How did they lay that?
>>11868281
>>11868281Very carefully.
>>11868275Pretty cool.I never was really a fan of how it's connected with tan pieces like that, but I do understand there's no real other way to do it.
>>11868175>>11868281The Woolworths bootleg promo sets have a more realistically-sized egg mold
>>11868275I know it's a perspective illusion but the 2x2 flap that looks like it's on the Adventurers car cabin is giving me ideas for a WW2 armored vehicle
>>11868343Realistically-sized for ants, apparently.
>>11868343how does woolworths have the infrastructure to do brick manufacturing for a couple months a year? is it just a partnership with some chinese bootlego brand?
I like it here
Citytron is taking a hiatus because frankly Castle eats up a lot more table space.Anyway, this is all rather preliminary so far, need to dig up a few more baseplates and obviously actually blend the terrain between them better.
>>11868380Case in point.
Oh, I also picked this up last week at a local lego resale store. Which I guess now means I have three kings to stuff into one castle, two with the fancy royal robes and one with a Viking torso hidden under his breastplate.
>>11868382Set itself is all there, but for the figs I'm missing a chrome gold sword for the king (which just means I still have two), a silver flat-brimmed helmet for the guard, and a copper helmet and shield for one of the trolls.
>>11868384Gold printing on the torso is also faded as fuck, but whatever.
>>11868337I'd let them smokum my peace pipe if you gets what I am saying
what about dino posting
>>11868440I don’t mind dinos but I am not a big JP fan and wish they’d do non licensed dino.
>>11868517yeah non licensed sets would be better. It's not like they actually do anything with the IP or that ppl give a fuck for the minifigs. + the sets would be cheaper
>one thread is shilling autism>the other is nostalgiaslop autismThis board is terrible
>>11868524Cool moc bro
>>11868440I always thought it was funny how some of those dinos have red dragon heads as tongues
>>11868440Robodino is fine too.
>>11868635I like how the head underneath is a contracted and/or gaping metal anus.
>>11868703Lol I don’t that’s why I turned it sideways.
>>11868517I don't like the new printed ones tbdesu. Dinoes should be either the classic Johnny Thunder/canister dino style with the moulded features, blocky outlines, and simple prints, or full-on Dino Attack. Nothing in between.
>>11868761they're devolving too. Brachiosaurs body was just one chunk and the new velociraptor only had a movable jaw.

Posting here mainly to vent.>inb4 lego star wars minifig fag>inb4 aftermarket faggotryYesterday i was browsing facebook marketplace and I found the set 75211 for 35$ but it didnt have 3 minifigs.For those who dont know, 75211 is a tie fighter set with 4 minifigs and is the only lego SW set to have featured the mimban stormtrooper see pic related. This Minifig alone costs 100$ minimum even if it has torso cracks or is yellowed. This lego set is infamously expensive. a complete set used usually goes for about 160$ USD. Its one of those sets that has a few exclusive minifigs that people go crazy for.I message the guy and I ask him if he could find the other minifigs and he agrees to sell the complete set for 65$. He finds them all, he didnt include them all in the listing because "He couldn't be bothered to find them all". He obviously didnt know what he had on his hands. I made the mistake of asking to buy some more minifigs but not agreeing on a price before hand. I figured I could probably offer 10$ per fig and he'd be happy to sell. When I got there I met him and his meatball wife. This woman looked like an inflated ball. imagine one of those big blow up see through hamster balls you can run around but its covered in lard and flesh. I smiled and said hello how are you to her, trying to be courteous but she just glared at me and walked away in silence. Then the guy reneges on the deal. My last message to him was at 3:30pm and i got to his house at 4pm and he unfortunately searched it up before my arrival. It could have been my eagerness to buy it fast that gave it away but I'm convinced his pet meatball twisted his nutsack into breaking the deal and charging more. I should have just walked away then and there for breaking the deal (which he was MORE than happy to take before he searched everything up) but I figured he would just take down the listing and charge market value or slightly under and this was still my best chance at getting a decent price.
>>11868839Not to go on a tangent here, and this relates more to Bricklink, but those listings that are>100% complete>no minifiguresreally fucking piss me off. Like, fuck you, nigger, we all know exactly what you did, you scalping fuck.
>>11868371>is it just a partnership with some chinese bootlego brand?Presumably but I haven't seen anything else use the same molds, except the South African Woolworths funnily enough who did the same thing.Turns out in current year making little plastic bricks is cheap as fuck and Lego is just scamming us. Also helps when they have a bazillion dollars in supermarket chain revenue and can eat the scaling costs because the bean counters figured it increases their sales by 3%.
>>11868783>devolvingLego Dimetrodon soon?
>>11868839anyways I ask him how much for the complete set and he goes into deep contemplation, squinting his eyes clenching his jaws and finally says 120$. I buy it cuz thats still a good price esp since its all in perfect condition. Its not a terrible deal considering the fact that its retail price was 72$usd in my area after tax but it was still more than I would have been willing to pay.Anyways, now that I have the complete set in hand, I'm beginning to like the tie fighter a lot more than the stormtrooper. As much as I despise the lego aftermarket, I might have to become a shitty fucking reseller and sell the minifigs for more than I purchased the to recoup the loss. I might make a small mimban MOC to commemorate having the minifig. Anyways feel free to laugh at me. I've been wanting to have the stupid mimban trooper since I saw him on screen in the solo movie (not a great movie but it had some good moments) and now that I got him Im disappointed lmao.
>>11868845Ik exactly what you mean, sometimes tho the scalpers fuck up and you can get a really cool "side build" for cheap. I saw some idiots selling the at-te by itself no figs for 50$ lmao
>>11868175
>>11868855Well I would criticize your taste for pretending yidsney fanfiction exists in the first place, but I'm not entirely above paying out the ass for a specific fig. I bought a couple of sealed Revans for $20 apiece, which at the time seemed like a lot. Of course, they run around $400 now, so even if I keep the one that I opened for continued personal use I'm still coming out way ahead.
>>11868865Uuoooohhh ToT
>>11868869darth revan is a pretty cool fig. The most I can justify paying for a minifigure is around 35-40$USD which is how much a custom pad printed figure usually runs. most of the stuff yidsney has put out is pure slop by and large. sequels are terrible, mandalorian has a few cool episodes but is mostly trash. Ahsoka, kenobi, bad batch, skeleton crew etc are terrible to mid. mando movie and solo are both pretty mid.however rogue one and the andor tv show are peak. I rank them higher than the og trilogy desu.
>>11868855Sucks. I have had several negative fb marketplace experiences along the same lines. Bait and switch motherfuckers.>don’t worry bro the box is completeI don’t know what’s worse the seller or the buyer.
>>11868874>>11868855>that’ll be $70 for a side build
>>11868875man that zelda set was really expensive. facebook marketplace can defn be fairly hit or miss lmao but I've found it to be far superior to eBay or bricklink. Ebay is filled with scammers and deluded scalpers. also shipping fees are regularly 20$+ usually 40$.Some highlights for me:1. Sealed 2x 327th battlepack for 20$cad each (retail value each is 56$ each after tax)2. pre built tie bomber all pieces and minifigs for 25$ (retails for 100$cad after tax) 3. Sealed death/night trooper battle pack, capn rex microfighter and siege of mandalore for 20$ (retail value total about 80$ after tax)4. sealed at-rt attack for 20$ (67$cad after tax)I've purchased quite a few smaller lego sets for more than half off on marketplace. I've bought them from single moms/dads who Im convinced work retail and just steal some of the smaller stuff and pawn it off on marketplace. I've also got quite a few sets from arabic kids who defn work retail too. I try to avoid the people who put bricklink terminology in their description because they tend to know what they have. You unfortunately cant find bigger sets or anything valued over 80$cad cuz corporate has tighter control over it.
>>11868885I scored one of the 3-1 castles for $30 off marketplace so I can’t complain too much but I’m convince fb algorithm hides any decent deals from me now because all the listings I see are garbage and have been for a long time.
>>11868891Sorry should have said 50-1. This set is tits.
>>11868891man now Im jealous haha. Im defn gonna pick up the 3in1 pirate ship they just released. you could also try to change your region to some other location and then back to see if that helps. I haven't had that issue yet although I do so a lot of the same listings as well.
>>11868855>>11868839Fuck minifigs I want more of these big hexes
>>11868900I just see the same shit all the time and I’ve tried messing with location but they know and it doesn’t change what I see. Plus I think they know I got a steal of a deal and I’m being punished for it.
>>11868903you can get them for pretty cheap, they go for about a 0.88$ each on bricklink:Plate, Modified 14 x 18 Hexagonal with Lowered 2 x 4 Bottom with 3 Pin HolesItem No: 44666
>>11868869I spent 30 bucks on a figure just so I could get this head, but now that I’m an enlightened piecetard I’m just moreso trailing down odd parts instead, if theres a weird minifigure part I would want it would be the blonde beard from that merry go round motorised set to mix with the blonde dumbledore hair for an ayran wizard
>>11868905you might need to go the scammer route and get a bunch of burner facebook accounts by buying cheap philippino phone plans and setting it all up with a vpn
>>11868908I don’t care to invest that much time or effort. I check it occasionally never anything good, move on to other places to look, no biggie. Deals are out there I could (I do) just live in a shitty area where no one buys or plays with legos.
>>11868906I only got one from a B&M, cheapest seller is an estonian with a ton of interesting stuff, have another estonian order on the backburner because I want some of those new heavy duty technic joints from that t rex fossil set to see how well they fair in a bionicle moc or something but just haven’t made a bl order in a while
>>11868912Yea having to constantly hound for deals is a pain in the ass. Hope you find another steal soon anon. As the white roasties say I’m manifesting for you>>11868913Man I wish the bionicle joints weren’t so brittle a ton of mine have broken over the years. As for bl orders, shipping might be a bitch. So fucking expensive.
Ausbros where the hell do I get the Series 29 CMFs? Every Big W and Kmart I've checked doesn't have them, also colesworth. I found the animal costume series in one today, that's it. Are they locked up away from the rest of the Lego because of shoplifting or something?Or do I just have to bite the bullet and pay scalper prices?
>>11867978>>11867981>>11868022>>11868071Begone foul dragons, the black knights march on thee!6085 arrived today, and I partially finished my moc! To do: PAB a bunch of foliage and green and blue plates. Later though, I've spent enough recently. All of the figures but one guard were pretty much mint condition when it arrived earlier today. Very pleased with it.
>>11869015glad to hear it came in safe and sound! the moc is coming along very nicely :)
>>11868839>>11868855>want to lowball/scam someone>it failsIt sucks but I don't really feel that sorry for you especially when you still got a decent deal out of it.
>>11869022Sure it was a hellavu lowball but it clearly wasnt his collection otherwise he would have known the price from the get-go. the minifigures were in very nice displays so the previous owner obv knew they were nice figures. He didnt know what he had.Im more so irked by his gf and the fact that he reneged on the deal.
>>11868991The last time I saw a cmf line in a walmart or other retail location was back in september when they released the dnd cmf. Check specialty hobby stores, the ones with lots of anime statues/comic book action figures and other toys of that nature. They might have a box of 20 at the cash registers. Thats where I found mine. You should be able to find them at the lego stores but if not you might be too late. which ones are you looking to buy? I managed to get an elf princess, 3 monster hunters and the bionicle cosplayer
>>11869045You should just be honest and call her The Whale, or for an older reference Doradus
>>11869048>which ones are you looking to buy?The tuba players and a unicorn elf. I ended up just placing a Bricklink order for some tubists, less than a dollar each above retail price. I'm not in an area with much choice in shops. I'll keep looking occasionally.
I finished searching through a lovely little collection I picked up the other day, here are the highlights. The rest of the pieces are in the plastic bags.
>>11869216The instructions. Lots of nice catalogues too.
>>11869219Someone kept the backs of the boxes for the alt builds. These feel like treasure.
>>11869216I’m jelly.
>>11869221A closer look at the castle figs. An odd bunch. One crusader and falcon are missing from the sets (or just their bodies) according to the boxes/instructions, but there are some more from other sets. There was at least one Dragon Masters set as evidenced by part of Majisto, the two capes, and the legs (did those capes come with spares in the sets?). Three forestmen hats and some extra quivers, but the wearers have vanished. Also a Wolfpack shield, but no other trace of them here. Also seems to be parts of an extra black knight or two based off the cuirass torsos, shield, and grey breastplates. A few more horses than the instructions would suggest as well.The metallic torso prints are in fantastic condition considering they've been played with by two or three generations. 6062 has 4 stone wall panels, yet here there are 9. Not sure what the missing set could be, none of the forestmen ones seem to fit.
>>11869229Closer view of Lagoon Lockup and other minifigs. The cannon, other weapons, and parrot are missing. Everything else accounted for. Captain Redbeard is hidden in the jail. Another pirate is here from somewhere else. Again the soldiers' torso prints are perfectly preserved. The big flag has both clips intact which is rather rare.Also the Town river set is complete I think. I always liked that set but never thought I'd have it. The girl's hat has paint on it but I have a bunch of those spare because they're cheap and I wanted to make confederate troops.An M-Tron and Space Police set here as well, nice to have since I don't have much of those in my collection. The Hospital set is cute too, I might sell it once put together though.
>>11869216>>11869219>>11869221>>11869236Man I am so fucking jelly.I basically live in the middle of nowhere so something like this virtually does not exists for me.Very cool stuff anon.
>>11868839People always wank this one as "the golden standard of TIE fighters", but I always felt like the cockpit area didn't really capture the "sphere" look, if you can see what I mean. Although I feel like it has somewhat grown on me, because that newest TIE interceptor has the issue I just described but 2x worse, even the old blue interceptor looks more like a proper sphere even while being way more blocky lol.Please post some pics if you can.
I found and restored this humble set a while back without a manual, so it looks a little different.I lost 3/4 rebels so I ordered 3 new ones, though unfortunately because I wanted to give the driver something to actually drive the damn thing with I had no more space to put the 3rd rebel in there (original build has the driver 1 stud forward with no driving controls), so I kinda "solved" it like this but idk, it looks kind of like a space garbage truck now...
>>11869015Will you add a dragon train?
My castle is already 64 studs wide but I think about adding 16 studs to make the courtyard a bit larger and to add a garden. But I also like the cozyness of the smaller castle and it's already quite big. What do?

>>11870341Based
>>11870257I think I used to see him post here years ago
>>11870331>>11870341>Nobody here cares about that rat, this is the bizarro general. Now go back to your shill den rodent.I care about visual spoilers, but the "list of set names" does nobody any good except create false hope. as a matter of fact, it's worse than not doing it.I've been trained at this point to expect disappointment. for example: Lego is doing POKEMON squeeeeeee!!!!!! here's a list of sets!!!!! (given a list of sets and names without pics) aaaaaand.... boom. it's a wreck once we actually SEE it. and we all cry over how it's not what we expected Lego Propaganda-Team (Social Media Advertising?) needs to skip that step, and go right to the blurry pics
>>11870341I remember as a kid I always wanted the hell out of some of those trans-pink Harry Potter roofs, but now I have no idea what the hell I was even planning to do with them. Just excited by big exotic pieces at that age I suppose.Speaking of, got two of these recently, but with no canopy to match (think I posted the haul last thread). I'm thinking I'll either put them together with a reverse connection if I want to make a sphere (fuel tank, perhaps?) or just use diagonal plates to make them flat-topped (possibly watchtowers).
>>11870447Picrel would make for a pretty good spaceship cockpit to be fair so I get what younger you was thinking a bit, just getting matching windows is the hard part, watch towers sounds like a good idea for those since theres not many octagonal pieces anymore
>>11870501>>11870447Nevermind false alarm there’s purple panes for a ship thanks to some gothic set, just have to figure out what colors would go well with such color windowed shipping
>>11870509>>11870501One could, of course, just make it match Friendstron, which already uses such glass, with primary white, secondary dark purple, and tertiary red-orange.
>>11869216My area has a bunch of scumbags on FB Marketplace who have ads all over saying they will pay top dollar for sets and minifigs. All I ever see now are shitty bulk Friends lots or resellers trying to sell the Lion Knigt's castle for a grand.
>>11870210Settings are 0.12mm layer height (Fine preset in Bambu slicer)Nozzle is 0.4mm, I do have a 0.2mm but haven't tried it yet.Filament is PLA>>11870291I got this one and some others at printablebricks.com, the models can be a bit low polyYou can also use mecabricks.com/en/workshop (File -> export), requires an account though
>>11869286>>11870574I think that living in a small city is the best for finding these. In big cities the good ones go instantly, too rural and they don't pop up often like you said. My area is in the goldilocks zone.A good tip to keep in mind is that the best finds usually have bad photos. This is maybe not the most extreme example but here is the listing photo from this lot. A couple of the gems are plain to see but there's a lot more that is hidden. No lineups of minifigs and valuable parts, just a box of bricks. It shows that the person selling isn't someone who's into the adult side of the hobby, collecting, reselling, etc. Just a parent or grandparent selling old toys that the kids aren't interested in anymore for a price that seems reasonable. So there's no "THIS IS RARE VINTAGE 2016 LEGO CITY, NO TIMEWASTERS I KNOW WHAT I GOT".Bad photos plus your autistic knowledge plus Bricklink research means you can sniff out great finds that others might miss. For example I saw what looked like a small box with 3kg of basic bricks for $100. I was going to ignore it but I noticed part of a hull piece of the Armada Flagship poking out from under the bricks. I messaged asking for more photos and there was a pile of good stuff, classic minifigs and sets, pirates/Western/Castle/Space. Instant buy.
>>11870605I've pulled 3 holyshit lots from FB Marketplace.1. A mom for $200 sold me 2 55 gallon totes filled with legos. While yes some were Friends sets most were nearly complete sets. About half I kept and the other half I flipped for $1k on ebay/bricklink.2. A guy who obviously robbed someone sold me a trashbag that included a trove of 70s-80s legos including the Black Knight's castle with the white dragon plumes for $503. A guy sold me a set with a complete Black Seas Barracuda, with the sails never cut for $100 (I talked him down from like $150)I had a mom recently selling a complete fantasy era collection with bardings and everything, but some douche bag got it first "Oh, I am sorry I sold it to someone who had messaged me a few minutes before you did".

https://elvendale.fandom.com/wiki/Category:DragonsIs somebody gonna eventually print the elves dragon head and jaw in a new color for a moc or something, it’s the same deal of wanting to see a partially magenta spaceship or space faction with the abundance of pieces we have now, would require some printing for the upper head though definitely
>>11870775China did it ages ago.
>>11870777
>>11870630Dont get it. Its not even that good of a set. (Or wait for the gwp to show up on eBay Fr like $30)
>>11870779>>11870777Just too bad neither are new colors
>>11870781The second one is a dark, metallic blue. None of the official Elves Dragons are that color at all - one is deep indigo, the other is teal.As for the first one, while it's white like the Dragon Queen's head, the latter actually uses an entirely different mold - this one is using the standard head, which never came in white.
Do Lego stores generally all have the same pick-a-brick wall selection at any given time, or can the parts be totally different from one store to the next? I have two Lego stores in my area and was thinking about hitting them both up to see if the PAB wall had different parts, but I am not going to bother if they all just have the same selection at every store at any given time.
>>11870784That's not a thing I've ever even thought to check tbdesu.I guess tell us how it goes and we'll know.
>>11870784I’m not lucky enough to live near one at all so I scour fb pages and groups about PaB for anything interesting. There’s plenty of folks who will only charge you a small fee for going and picking you a box and sending it to you. Anyway, from what I’ve seen PaB walls can vary significantly between stores even in a similar location like Chicago. If it were me I would check out both if they’re close. Lego likes to control everything but depending on the store culture and management you might find you have a preference for one over the other or one has a better selection.
>>11870341Every single time you seethe you attach an image of old lego from bricklink and not something you own, im starting to think you dont even own lego anymore
>EXACTLY one min later a bump in the shill threadKek. Frogger fuckin fuming that people are over here talking about bricks and no one gives a shit about his “leaks” or shit thread.Anyway here’s that group.
>still refuses to post lego he actually ownsTiresome
>>11870862It's a problem on virtually every board.Literally everyone these days has a smartphone with a camera, but for some reason will absolutely refuse to take pictures of their own things and post them.Go to /o/? Almost no one actually posts their own car.Go to /a/'s buyfag? Almost no one actually posts their own figures.It feels like effort-posting as a whole died out almost completely, the severe lack of actual OC content across all boards also attests to that.
>>11870862>she says with no images on an image board Sad. Frogs still can’t frogpost.
>>11870154you ever tried orca slicer? has a ton of cool features
Stop posting in this thread. Come to the actual Lego General and discuss real lego
>>11870984Cry moar, baguette nigger.
>There once was a frog, sad and mad>His posts made everyone all feel bad.>With a croak and a pout >He’d grumble and shout>But no posts for him and now he’s all sad
>>11870987Cool moc bro
>>11870992I notice you haven't posted any pictures of any of your actual lego.And I mean ever.>if I project first, nobody will notice I'm doing it
My favorite part of the drama is the guy who posts multiple bricklink catalog parts photos while insisting that the other guy is the spammer.
>>11870784There are two Lego stores in my city and I visited both of them in the same day one time. One is significantly larger than the other and had a larger PaB wall so it had greater selection by default. There was a fair amount of parts overlap so I guess it depends on the size of the location as much as anything else.
>>11870630That sucks, I started mine today.
>>11871076The poorfag in me wants to call you a faggot but I’m just jealous. I’ve cranked my hog to many times too bad angry at a true fan.

>>11871112>Also reminder that this thing’s raid is actionable.lol
>>11871113>>11871011>>11870984>>11870862>>11870840Had to get that out of my system, you are still the worst poster on this board bar none and should have had more linkden investigation done on you but keep out noncet, tired of your ugly french face.
>>11871130You gave me a (You) but the closest I've ever been to France is Florida. Stop jumping at shadows.
Anypoop, second wampa/tauntaun horn I've been missing forever came in, now I just need another long horn in white to complete the set.
>>11871333Do you find that helmet to have a weak grip? Feels like it's been a problem with most of the ones I've got, annoying cuz there's only so many different medieval helm variants to work with when army-building.
Visited both Lego stores today, left is the larger one. The smaller store had a few parts that weren't at the larger store, which also had a few duplicate bins. Neither place had what I really wanted (1x2 trans-red bricks) but hopefully they'll reappear at some point.
>>11871342No, grip seems fine to me. Granted all of these are actual gunmetal instead of the original speckly paintjob ones, so that might be a factor. Also if you're having normal horn/spike pieces wobbling in there, it's more likely a problem on the horn side, as I do have several that have an unusually shitty hold (probably from being in too tight a slot at some point in their history, or maybe a bad batch/year).
>>11871342>>11871347(I do also have a metallic gold one, and the connection seems fine there too.)
>>11871348(Forgot pic as usual.)
>>11871347The horn grip hasn't been an issue really, it's the grip for keeping the helm on a minifig's head. Have tried 3D printing helms and weapons with mixed results; didn't have much experience at the time so I'll probably give it another go sometime but I've been on extended break from the army-building. Was also sourcing a lot of arms and armour from AliExpress, though I've started to question what my end-goal really is, if there is one.
>>11871354My apologies, I'm fucking retarded.No, the head grip hasn't been an issue either. I'd say it grips a lot better, than, say, a regular knight/motorcycle base helmet.
>>11871357Hm maybe I've just had bad luck. On a related note I am thankful for that Harry Potter chess set from a few years ago, helped drive down the price of classic black helms.
>>11871367Speaking of chess, local place has the big Fantasy Castle chess set with its big fancy box for $2000. Fucking mental price honestly but looking online it almost looks reasonable by comparison. Did nobody but me buy Fantasy Castle back then, or was there a supply chain issue, or what? Because it seems like that particular line is weirdly rare and expensive overall.
>>11871374Can only speak for myself but it was released in the middle of my dark ages; would get into Mega's Halo line soon after and didn't really look at Lego for a good chunk of that run. It was pretty radical departure from the previous castle themes, having non-"human" factions for the first time with trolls, dwarves, the undead. The Crown Knights never had much appeal to me, just didn't seem as cool as just about every other Castle faction. The 2000s were tough years for TLG, Lego Star Wars was just starting to bail them out of their financial difficulties and they'd spread themselves too thin with a lot of specialty parts. Couldn't say without definitive info but the line may have been underproduced compared to the rest of the Castle waves.
>>11870609holy fuck. >>11870784every PAB wall is different. It always is. No store has the same wall but stores in close proximity might have some common pieces. I also have 2 in my city and they were different
>>11871367>helped drive down the price of classic black helms.You can get them pretty cheap in large quantities on PaB, grey and silver as well. Bucket helms too.
I printed a heater shield with the better handle. I can upload the stl if anyone wants.
>>11870893I haven't but thanks for the suggestion, I might try it as I get more advanced
>>11871367>>11871558I’ve been wanting to see a spider knight faction using the classic lego spider as its iconography, maybe emphasising the cross on its butt even more as a proper emblem, either peters cross if you wanna be edgy or have the cross’s bottom extend down further into the spider’s silhouette, just too bad whenever I search “Lego Spider Knight” on google all that shows up is marvel goyslop instead of something more like this which was the closest we got (from nexo knights of all things)
>>11871403My own dark age began somewhere around 2009/2010, which is a bit unfortunate because I did miss out on the last two proper Castle themes (Kingdoms? Is that what they called them?) before we were doomed to an eternity of big gay black boxes, CMFs, and GWPs. Those, however, are at least still fairly reasonably priced on the secondhand market, taking into account of course the general rabidity of castleniggers. Er, no offense.
>>11871571You should make them yourself Anon.>Blank shields on PaB: $0.22 each>Helmets on PaB: $0.28 each>Common City torsos on Bricklink: $0.15 to $0.40 each depending on color>Plain legs on Bricklink: $0.10 to $0.30 each depending on color>A4 sticker paper on Ebay: ~$5 for 20 sheets>Paint.net or Gimp: Free
>>11871571Well, the good news is, we have spiders, and we have shields with studs on them.
>>11871571I made a quartet of crusaders with a Cricut vinyl cutter at work, I feel validated now for having such a weird idea heh.>>11871578Outside of the scorpion torso I've been fairly modest in army-building the various Castle factions. Much of my medieval forces use armor pieces overtop adjacent themed or blank torsos; Ninjago and Chima have been cheap and plentiful for this purpose.
There's one faction from Ninjago where you reverse their torsos and voila, some pretty decent armors. This band has grown to include a mounted contingent, one of the larger of my retinue of retinues idea that got a little out of hand.
>>11871588Yeah that was about exactly what I was thinking, good job. Great minds think alike I think it is
It's been all downhill since these guys
>>11871609Any idea what you use these teethed bushels for?
>>11871612To make specific angles with this part, I should think.
>>11871612>>11871623Is that used for rack and pinion or what?
>>11871629No, it's just what they did for angled connectors in ye olden days. Rack and pinion steering has a whole other set of specialty parts.
>>11871658And this is why I don’t dick with technic.
>>11871558Requesting that STL
>>11871694https://files.catbox.moe/m02769.stlPrint face down on a smooth plate, it doesn't need supports. I used 0.12mm layer height but 0.2mm would probably be fine. When taking it off the build plate, use a bed scraper instead of pulling it by the handle.
>based moc and brickpirate bros over here living life the right way making and playing with bricks giving hella good advice and resources Feels good bros. Feels good.
>>11871737
Did they have to make this Shako so zesty?>governor broadbum's relief brigayde
>>11871747I always thought that was hilarious.I absolutely would download a car.
Any idea what this is from? I have tried looking up parts but no luck so far. I suspect it may be a rebrickable set since it came from a pile that had a custom built mini tower of orphanage.
>>11871820I hate autocorrect so much.
>>11871820The orange bar plate list of sets doesn't seem to have anything like this. Maybe you can make lists of different parts like the 1x1 rounds and cross-reference to narrow the list down.
>>11871737>>11871747>>11871773how terrified do you think Lego is of 3-D printing?not now, but in the future when it's virtually the same without being able to tell the difference?why would they put one in their own set?those UV Printers are almost within range of consideration, to print custom torsos and bricks with 100% "official" accuracy (okay, if your designs match or not)
>>11871836It's from this thinghttps://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-39355/TheRealBeef1213/microscale-cobra-mk3/#detailsThere's like 36 green 3062b which led me to this moc.
>>11871837I don't think there's any significant threat to their bottom line. Piracy tends to impact smaller brands the most (see Nintendo thriving despite a high piracy rate, PSP/Vita visibly suffering from piracy due to lower market share). It will mostly be practiced by poor people that wouldn't be buying much product to begin with, while normal people will pay for the convenience and whales are more interested in the authentic "premium brand" experience than actual possession of the toy.
>>11871837Not very. 3D printing looks like total shit and will for a very long time. UV printers as well. My closest B&M shelled out for an industrial, high end UV printer to custom print AI slop designs on Lego and that also looks extremely off when you have it in hand. The texture of the print is so different and it ends up getting too thick. It reminds me of back in the day 20ish years ago before the average joe could get custom UV prints and people would just create custom stickers to tack all over minifigs. It just immediately looks bad in hand.
>>11871823Can I have the instructions to that tower please?
>>11871823>>11872151Seconded.
