Oh great, a spooky house from a license I couldn't be more apathetic about. It's really too bad that so many intensely cool and imaginative sets are getting brushed under the rug for this. Also, car https://brickset.com/article/79384/chevrolet-camaro%C2%A0z28-revealed Oh jesus it's another freaking August 1st release.

I'm still salty that the cool multi-level slice of the London Underground didn't get enough likes to go into production. EDIT: Whoah wait it actually hit review, I hadn't checked in a while! https://ideas.lego.com/projects/2854271f-9432-4193-ad74-305e7105ebc4

BaconCopter posted:Also, car https://brickset.com/article/79384/chevrolet-camaro%C2%A0z28-revealed - Can be built as either a convertible or hardtop - Can be built with white, dark gray, or dark red stripes - Can have either exposed or slatted headlights - 2 different license plates - New slightly flared mudguard pieces - Lots of stickers. The only prints I see are the taillights and maybe (probably) the slatted headlights. - NPU: popsicles as mirrors and fire axes on the rear bumper

Shoulda been a Trans Am. The Camaro is the inferior F-body. The model is nice, though.

My partner is building her first set, the Creator Vespa, and I was thinking LEGO could use the white-walled rims for a vintage Cadillac or something similar. I’d like to see some other vintage cars that aren’t just muscle cars.

It's a minor thing, but it's a shame that there's only US number plates available on the Camaro. I always liked being able to put on Australian ones. I'll probably end up getting it, but I still have a list of sets I haven't even been able to find a copy of yet.

We had to put our beloved cat Moki down. For anyone who watched the Brickening streams, she was the quiet tan one, not the one who cried all the time. She was 14 and a half years old. Anyway. My heart is broken and I've been working on a LEGO model pretty much nonstop for the past 36 hours to distract myself from how awful I feel and try to focus that mental energy into something productive and creative. This is its 6th iteration in 1.5 days. I think it's done now. I hope you enjoy. 1969 Ferrari Dino 246 GT     It's about as low and slim as a 6-wide car can be and still fit a minifig. It is, in fact, shorter in overall height than a minifig. The most interesting visual detail of the real car is, IMO, the rear windscreen, which wraps around into the C pillars. I have replicated that on this model, and you can see it best in the last pic. In that image, you can also see the little yellow dot in the middle of the steering wheel, representing the Dino logo. I hope that I've captured the curves and beauty of the real car.

Wow, out of all the submissions in that Ideas review, Hocus Pocus got selected? Must've been a really fuckin' cheap license. I think I would have liked it better if nothing passed.

I’ve been getting emails about my Bricklink Designer program round 2 order so it shouldn’t be long before they start shipping out. By the way here’s a Galaxy Explorer review, it looks pretty fantastic. I especially like the airlock door and that the figures can lay in the beds without needing to take off their air tanks. Unfortunately the classic Space sets were a bit before my time so I don’t have any nostalgia for them and am gonna pass on this. I’m waiting for the Adventurer’s homage set they will hopefully do eventually

I've been getting these every few weeks for a year and it's the same "important update" every time- sorry, not in stock! I had to check to see that the card I ordered it on wasn't going to expire this year before it gets charged.
