  Just opened the box on set 60430 and there are the two normal loose parts, but
they where both damaged and dirty

If I sold that new to a customer I would be in trouble, (the scuffs on the one
part are super obvious in real life) not good.

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.

  It is very difficult to track this guy down! Absolute gem of my collection is
the 1978 621 LEGO police car! it's complete and in near perfect condition
the whites are still pearly glass is still mostly clear, and the grays are not
yellowed, the stickers have seen better days, but the police man is superb. it
still has all it's instructions! this is also a special set since it was
one of the first lego sets to feature the modern day minifigure. It costed me
50-60 dollars to obtain. the only downside is that the 1x1 siren piece probably
isn't era accurate since it doesn't have a stopper at the end of the
stud. I also have a galaxy explorer and the 585 police station. post your gems
bellow!

It’s a three way tie between
 
Set No: 1888  Name: Black Knights Guardshack
* 
1888-1 (Inv) Black Knights Guardshack
40 Parts, 2 Minifigures, 1992
Sets: Castle: Black Knights

1890-1 (Inv) Octan Racer

Set No: 6506  Name: Precinct Cruiser
* 
6506-1 (Inv) Precinct Cruiser
23 Parts, 1 Minifigure, 1989
Sets: Town: Classic Town: Police
Sadly I don’t have any of the instructions. 1888-1 is missing 1-3 parts but still
mostly there. Also any of these minifigures.

nice!

Cool! Have to look for a little bit but the most noteworthy set I own that I’m
thinking about right now is,
 
Set No: 6954  Name: Renegade

6954-1 (Inv) Renegade
303 Parts, 2 Minifigures, 1987
Sets: Space: Blacktron I

of that's a good one! I'm super jelly!

Simon says is a physical game?

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

It’s based on the children game: the machine lights the 4 coloured buttons in
a sequence, with accompanying sounds, and you need to repeat the sequence by
hitting the buttons.

yep

Hi,

I’d say: Go with what you prefer

Also, you may get a tiny bit more feedback on the dedicated forum: https://forum.bricklink.com/viewforum.php?f=13

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.)

Hi and welcome

The admins moderate the designs according to these guidelines: https://studiohelp.bricklink.com/hc/en-us/articles/360042355033-Studio-Gallery-submission-guidelines

Until a design is accepted, it’s “Display Only.”

For your two public designs, you clearly state you’ve copied someone else’s intellectual
property.  They’ll stay Display Only.

If you have posted another design, and it has been set to Private, then check
the guidelines link above to understand why.

For more info, contact support: https://www.bricklink.com/v3/help/contact.page


(FYI, Discussions Moderators don’t moderate the designs.  I’m just answering
as a member.)

Hello

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
