The dirty part i can't comment on. In the photo all i see is a bit of cardboard
dust which is perfectly normal on parts that come loose in a set. You just blow
it away. I have never seen a 'dirty' part in all my years using Lego.
Though you never know.
The scuff marks on the aircraft fuselage, whilst i can't see them in the
photo, are normal too. Black is the one of the worst offenders, and black parts
with large smooth areas even worse again. Between manufacturing, processing
and packaging, parts are constantly banging together causing this. I have had
to sell many a black part from a new set as a used part due to scuff marks and
scratches.
Whether it is acceptable or not is up to the individual. Lots of pros and
cons on both sides. Whilst i don't want to have scuff marks or scratches
on a windshield of a $500 set (which Lego has been trying to rectify to their
credit), a few scuff marks on a set like you have, which is a $20 set, well it
happens. The added costs to stop this happening would not be viable.

No, it’s “Simon”: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon_(game)

| So, I am hoping to submit 2 design into BDP Series 5, and I have a question about
rendering. What typically captures more views, a rendering using the default
"building" light domain or using an HDRI image?
I may be getting too deep into changing out HDRI files in the render folder and
stylizing the renderings. (I like rendering and creating scenes because it is
almost like I am playing with the set). Is the preference to keep the renderings
simple? For example, which rendered image below is better for model presentation?
(The one with the orange hint is using the default "building" light domain
while the one with the blacker blacks and shinier bricks is a homebrew.)

I am looking for instructions to build a LEGO Rover 25.
I don't think that Lego have ever produced anything like this, the closest
I can find is the Land Rover, and I've been on a search engine hunt for any
MOCs and haven't found anything (and keep getting results for Space Rovers).
Can anyone point me in the right direction please? I have had a play with the
Studio, but I'm finding it a bit out of my skills set.
Thank you

First one I actually had to myself was
I wasn't allowed new LEGO sets growing up before then because my siblings
and I didn't get along and would hoard certain parts from a bucket of late
90's sets that was donated to us. Parents responded by throwing the hoarded
parts away.

I bought it for myself in the fall of 1998 when I was 23 years old.
I never had a single LEGO set growing up. But don't feel bad for me. The
toys I grew up with were Transformers (had almost every single character), He-Man
and the Masters of the Universe (had almost every single character), Hasbro Star
Wars (had almost all of the original figures, vehicles, and play sets), Micro
Machines, and yes... GoBots.
|
oh my goodness! I love He-Man! I have nearly have all of the Motu origins figures!
and am also a huge fan of Go-Bots! this is my collection.

I think the first lego item I was given was 6007
but the real building set was 6918
My grandma gave it to me for Christmas, no idea how she decided on that specific
set, but I'm sure glad she did!
Made it through my set selloff and dark ages. Pulled it out and built it again
a couple years ago, still in great shape.

Mine are 4 duplo buckets, don't know which one I got first:
Strange is that this one mine is in a yellow bucket:
The fourth one lost all their side stickers, but was a yellow cube too.

of a variety of pieces so I just remember having Lego bricks in general and after
many years of not playing with them they just stayed in the past. Then about
15 years ago I had a friend that while being in his late 20's still loved
Lego. His appreciation of Lego would cause me to every once
in a while to stroll down the Lego isle at the local Walmart store and I eventually
decided to give Lego a try and bought this set:
I was surprised at the tolerances used in the making of the pieces, the way doors
would pass by other pieces soo smoothly without catching on other pieces. Unlike
almost all other plastic toys, Lego seemed to care about quality. Another thing
that I really appreciated was how relaxing I found it to be to just sit down
after work and build part of a set while listening to music or watching a video.
I really enjoyed that.

I never had LEGO as a kid. The first set I ever worked on was
when I found it mostly built in a bin of loose LEGO from a rummage sale. I was
buying it for my son, but it led me to BrickLink.
The first set I bought just for myself was probably:

Not sure which sets were the first that I got. Looking through the catalog there
are some sets I owned that were released in the year I was born. I guess those
were still for sale when my parents decided that I was old enough to play with
Lego. Some of my earliest memories of Lego involve sets

I bought it for myself in the fall of 1998 when I was 23 years old.
I never had a single LEGO set growing up. But don't feel bad for me. The
toys I grew up with were Transformers (had almost every single character), He-Man

| Hi everyone,
I was trying to find some information on this, but I wasn't able to find
anything, hence my question.
So I am preparing my first submission for the next round of the BLDP, and I am
aware that I should use the most recent palette (5).
My question is that as there are no printed parts in this palette (eg. the Lego
News 2x2 tile), can we still use these or are these also a no-go? Also I have
some minifigures in the set idea, but none of the torsos are included in the
palette. Can we still submit these ideas as is (while including these printed
parts), or do we have to only use very generic and one coloured torsos in our
submissions? Looking at the winners of the previous BLDPs I can see they used
printed torsos etc, but I cannot find out how to only filter to those available
in the palette. I have 'Decorated Bricks On', but still, even if I choose
a torso from there it is listed as unavailable within the selected palette once
inserted.
I hope this makes sense. Thanks for your help in advance!

They should be the original RRPs and the Euro price we show is the German price.

Well, the ADP and BDP Invitational sets aren’t for sale any more. Their current
prices are second market prices.
I think Brickset may have the initial prices (under “RRP” / retail recommended
prices).

the box would look like as a spaceship, but I am not finding where Buzz was ever
depicted in a ship like that. I didn't watch Star Command, but it looks
like they fly around in big ship with the cockpit toward the back. Does someone
who watched the show know if they ever used smaller maybe fighter craft that
looked like this or is this just Lego's imagining of what the box would be?

Creative liberty with a fun recreation of Buzz’s retail packaging as portrayed
in Toy Story 1 and 2, would be my guess. Don't know. Though I believe LEGO
didn’t start marketing the franchise until Toy Story 2, some five years after
the sensation of the first movie. Many missed that train, or were just late in
understanding the phenomenon that Steve Job’s Pixar was creating
Has it been nearly 30 years since Pixar hit the scene with their new exciting
tech, with Toy Story?! Wow! Unlike Buzz’s paper ship, time really does fly
I remember enjoying the movie, especially Tim Allen’s lines. Beyond the tech,
I feel that the personality Tim Allen gave to Buzz, really helped the film to
hit big. Never did see any of the subsequent movies or sequels though. Maybe
I should?

Our policy is that we do not accept them into the catalog. Easy peasy.

That would be a very short sighted approach since if the printing is being carried

I didn't say anything about not allowing them to be sold as custom items.
I said they will not be accepted into the catalog. That is two very different

The sheer number of variations for these minifigures is probably the reason they
are not included in the catalog. There are over 500,000 possible variations in
this program - before you factor in the custom labels that can be printed on
the torso.

The same way we prove or verify all parts on Bricklink are officially produced
by Lego....
WITH DIFFICULTY!
The site relies on its community to report what they consider to be suspicious/counterfeit
usually from inspection of goods upon receipt or other suspicious activities.
A handful of custom printed Torsos with basic text and/or a decal design from
a limited selection of known options to be found on the Lego site are unlikely
to be counterfeit worthy!
However eyebrows may start to be raised if a seller starts listing custom printed
torsos with the superman Logo on the front!

It will be interesting to see how often people try to add them to the catalogue,
or if any get listed under current listings especially where they have official
prints.
For example, someone could have the "apples" torso printed in green on
the front of the torso and blue on the reverse and then try to list this as a
rare misprint as the back colour is incorrect.
Or have "LEGO STORE 2012 City Name" printed on the back and claim it
is a rare giveaway, or try and replicate existing store torsos.
