Hey y'all,

I'm still out here designing trucks. My latest truck is something different
for me, I've redesigned one of the trucks from LEGO System 6393 - Big Rig
Truck Stop. I've taken the old 4-wide truck and revamped it into a new City-style
6-wide truck. Check it out if you've got time and, as always, post links
to your own trucks for me to check out!

Keep Hauling!

Impressive! Very nice sir! Could you share the time you spend on this? Has to
be quite a bit I would say. Regards!

I've designed around 75 or so trucks, so it doesn't take me long. I probably
spent 8 hours on this one, from initial design to finishing instructions and
posting.

Where did you get the license plate?

The license plate is a custom sticker made by Yellow.LXF
He's made me a Georgia and Wyoming plate.

Even if it went into retirement I think it would still be available here on BrickLink
for a while at a reasonable price.

Of course, reasonable price means different things to different people.

We would pay a pretty penny. I showed it to kid and asked if I should get it
for his baby brother. Kid said no, the set looked too exciting, and they would
have trouble sharing.

Hello everyone,

does anyone know a MOC for purchase for the Green Dragon from the Hobbit/LOTR?

Thanks

I'm racking my head, but I can't think of any green dragon in those movies.
There is the red smaug and the black nazguls but that's it for dragon creatures.

You are thinking too literal my friend

The Green Dragon was one of the many inns of the Shire. It was located in Bywater
on the Bywater Road and was the building nearest to Hobbiton, being one mile
south-east from the bridge over the Water that led to Bag End. As such, Hobbits
from both villages could be seen there.

And it is a nice place by the way, been there a couple of times and enjoyed it
each time.

I feel stupid now....

Forget I said anything.

I loved your answer

It is one of the pubs, a bit like the Prancing Pony.

Erstellen eines Lego Model / Nachbau

Viewed:

39 times

Topic:

Hallo,

ich benötige für eine Projektarbeit ein Nachbau einer Bohrinsel (Die Betreiberfirma
ist mein Arbeitgeber).
Ich hatte bereits Kontakt mit den certified Professionals von Lego, diese können
mir aufgrund der Firmenpolitik von Lego nicht helfen, da solche Nachbauten nicht
in das Unternehmensbild passen. (Umwelt, Klima)

Meine Modell sollte die Maße 95cm x 75cm haben (Länge x Breite) in Wirklichkeit
ist die Insel ein festes Bauwerk mit den Maßen 95m x 75m

Ich benötige ein*e Lego Modellbauer*in, der mir ein Nachbau der Insel erstellen
kann
und das ganze auf Rechnung.
Es muss kein 1:1 Nachbau sein mit jeden kleinsten Detail. eine Grobe Struktur
und Überblick mit Ergänzungsmöglichkeiten (was bei Lego ja kein Problem ist)

Bei Interesse stelle ich gerne Bilder für den ersten Einblick zur Verfügung,
die kann ich hier aber nicht hochladen.

Bitte stellt euch kurz vor: was ihr schon gebaut habt, ob ihr eine Firma habt,
ggf. Mitarbeiter.

Gerne bin ich auch über Vorschläge dankbar.

Vielen Dank euch schonmal vorab
Marc

My kid is into space, and I’m positive he’ll love the new Duplo Space Shuttle.
I’m not a fan of the May GWP, and wanted to wait a months. Too risky? I know
it’s not the typical blockbuster set, but I’d be sad not to get it. On the other
hand, he’s recently discovered Hot Wheels, so I don’t want to have too many sets
in hand.

Duplo sets rarely go to retirement very fast. It is nowhere near as collectable
as regular lego.

I don't have any inside knowledge of Lego operations, but NASA actually has
a page on their site discussing the relationship between NASA and Lego. The Lunar
Lander and Saturn V are both in production, and I think those go back 4 years
for the Saturn V, and 2 years for the Lander, both of which still seem in production.

The new Discovery Shuttle is one of the best kits I have built.

Lego probably doesn't have as much "royalty/licensing" overhead for NASA
items as they would with Marvel/DC/Potter/Star Wars, so I'd say you have
some time

*just my guess*

1. Saturn V is a reissue.
2. Those are +18 sets, maybe Duplo is different.

Anyway, the set is not even out yet, so it should be available at least this
whole year.

Hey ! I’m looking for a batch of PotC minifigs and a guy sells 23 minifigs for
130€, and I’m not sure they are real (at least some of them might be). For example,
the minifig head on the 1st pic(probably from poc012) looks really weird, the
shape of the mouth is round, the parts look really glowy (on the 2nd pic). Could
you guys help me ?
Thanks in advance !

It's a fake. The baseplate doesn't have the Lego markings.
It comes with a rat, the tail is visible in the picture.

€130 for fake figures is always too much.
