Everything LEGO thread!

How did you get that?

 

I once put a 12" size boot through my little brother's Lego castle he had been working on for about 3 days. It looked something like this afterwards. LEGOS!!!! BOOM!!! So much fun....

 

I was able to pick it up off eBay.

 

Dang havent been on here in forever. Still buying up and building some. A while back I tried to replicate my truck recently with what little extras we have laying around. Still working on it. Need to find some special pieces and changing things up on it. Not in a rush. Pretty close so far , I think.

 

These would some sweet sets.

 

Add me to the list for the SR-71
(Kinda related, Brickmania has a U-2 that’s really cool but not $800 cool. Hopefully it’ll come out as a Digital Instruction.)

Re: NASA Spacesuit…
This one had the 10K but was not approved in February 2021, Which is too bad, It was a good one complete with the MMU!

The NASA Artemis Suit has a few days left to get support - it’s currently just under 1,400. Kinda doesn’t make sense because the Artemis suit has yet to be finalized.

Looks like there’s a couple of Astronaut Brickheadz and another generic Astronaut but that one seems to be a castaway just floating in space.

 

There needs to be some sort of customer override. Maybe the designer will offer up an MOC

 

Maybe due to the fact that anything the gov’t does is grossly expensive... like the spacesuit would cost Joe Taxpayer $100 but the NASA version is a cool $4,900,000. Per suit. And LEGO had to reduce sales forecasts from thousands of suit sets to just 0.

 

We need an official Gemini Capsule

 

Made with official LEGO parts…

That's nice. But not $360.00 nice.

 

A long standing critique of Brickmania products.

Keep an eye out for their Digital Instructions. Typically $15 for the xml parts list and step by step instructions. They recently started issuing them and I’m hoping they’ll get around to some of their NASA themed products.

 

Added these amazing sets to my collection.

 

Raise your hand if you’ve shaken a Polaroid picture in real life:

More crab boat. Been doing a lot of structural work, so very few changes are actually visible.

 

Completed this Xmas present a couple days ago. Has some nice details to it. I like that the tree lights up.
