People are allowed to be annoyed at the mods being unfunny yet again and acting like their hysterical for voicing that about it is also annoying as poo poo

it feels like the thread in particular is getting hosed with. like the move and subsequent move from BFC wasn't all that long ago. and its a weird thread to single out like this twice i guess lol

Counterpoint: the move to BYOB is completely fine because this place is chill, unlike the finance move where financebro dickheads immediately swooped in asking what sets were best for investing in and reselling

why do you give a poo poo where the thread lives?

also BYOB is a chill place that likes lego, why not live here for a while before moving on?

hello lego thread, seeing this after having been on a kick of revisiting a lot of racing games from my childhood/adolescence reminded me of this lego set i had somewhere probably in the late 2000s. i think lego was trying to cash in on the street racing trend that the fast and the furious, and need for speed underground brought in. it was a car garage that came with a couple of tuner cars and a hot rod and iirc there was an elaborate way of launching the cars out of the garage to race them. i loved that set a lot and maybe you can help me identify it :)

I'm totally fine with the move as long as there are regularly posted adorable pet pics.

The Tallneck has been popping up on sale here and there, and it's an amazing deal at 15+% off (around original price), no doubt a good purchase at MSRP as well. What a freakin' build, Lego needs to make more mech-animals outside of Ninjago and Monkie Kid. Tippy top tier minifig too, CMF tier details, arguably one of the best figs Lego has ever produced.

Lego needs to make new Sand Red and Sand Purple parts :colbert:. The shades are so amazing for what I'm trying to build... ugh.

Please stop moving the Lego thread without prior input from the posters, it doesn't matter how much any of the mods think "Oh the Lego thread will be fun in this forum", it has been previously asked to stop moving the thread because it puts weird expectations on the Lego thread regulars to adapt to a forum culture that they did not ask to be sent to.

I don't even dislike BYOB, I think they're alright people, it's just annoying that we have a mod doing the same thing that the thread asked not to happen again when it was previously sent to the financial forum.

I hope you all will indulge while I post yet another of my Ghostbusters expanded universe creations. I had this idea three years ago so it is fun to finally make it.

"After taking care of Viggo there was still lots of negatively charge Mood Slime under the city that we needed to neutralize."


"This is the Subterranean Psychomagnetheric Ectoplasm Mitigation Unit."


"We start by creating a positive environment with free concerts with our state-of-the-art sound system.


"Then we use a pair of modified ground-penetrating radar units as subwoofers to target the concentrates of slime. We call them the Thumpers."


Ray: "These readings are good, but we need to kick this party up a notch."
Winston: "I've got just the thing."

If you are curious here is a link to the rest of my GB builds

And here she is planning some mayhem.



She is without a back leg, so there's not a huge danger of her jumping on the table. Especially from the floor.


For the regular Lego folks, I have completely scrapped the design of my sub. I finally have (what I consider to be) a great looking dome and need to tweak the hull to fit it better. Still in the Studio phase, and I'm going to Vegas for a week starting tomorrow, so it will be a while before I can post any more pics or whatever (for all both of you who were waiting breathlessly for those). Again, I want to thank you guys for the pointers and feedback.


All you BYOBers, this thread is full of super creative and helpful people. If you ever thought you wanted to get back into this poo poo as an adult, then here is a great chance.

It's really great. Top tier SC car I think. I did see a video yesterday where a dude tweaked the hood and front fascia a bit to match the real car better, and it's pretty tempting.

Everyone is still sore after the move to the finance forum, which was really dumb and annoying because speculators/investors are... pretty unpopular in many LEGO communities. So after that dumbass move, I don't think folks are super excited for it to move again so soon, even if it is to a much better place.

That dolphin set is super and has many really good alt builds on Rebrickable.

The small chicken set (polybag) is also awesome, the chicks could be better but the chicken is a very solid pleasing shape.

Might order one of those myself for the parts.

If you can get hold of it, the easter chicks (with opening eggs) GWP from last year is one of my favorite sets of the year, too.
