SadisTech posted:So hang on, it looks like the lego.com site only allows 12 minifigure blind boxes purchased per series with no time limits. I guess they want to foster the secondary market to collect the full set? No. They are just being lame. By now they know that people want full sets but they think those people will just keep buying individual packs rather than full sets.

I bought full display boxes for the mario blind bags they did. I always got 2-3 complete sets. Protip if any of you are in canada, chapters/indigo sells Lego, and has no limit on CMFs. I just make sure to order it the right quantity of singles, and they will ship a full sealed display box.

Or just buy the full set on Ebay. If you preorder, you can often get them for basically the retail price. If you wait a few months, you may be able to get for below retail.

I read somewhere that the next batch will have codes printed on them that indicate which is which.

For the space ones, I found a Ebay seller who did a complete set of 12 for like £48, which is only a few quid more than retail. I wish listed it, thinking I'd come back and then they sent me an offer of £42.23 for the set, which is practically retail price. I bought it immediately.

There’s a couple I like (I like the 3-arm dude for the third arm, I could use that for my The Thing diorama using the Arctic sets) but the one I’m actually most excited for is the basic astronaut with the EVA pack.

Have had the new Tie Bomber for awhile and it’s small size and lack of detail made me wanna do something weird with it So browsing variants and this caught my eye  So just built that in like 10 minutes and was like “I can make this weirder, what if Imperial B-Wing?” So I inverted and redid the panels, moved the engines to the wings, added an ion cannon on pilot side concussion missiles in the other, filled out the solar more, rear of the pilot pod holds the energy bank so added linkage to the gun pod and added a cooling section to the rear of the gun pod      Original was a let down so might as well mess with it Still not happy with the main gun a sexual elk fucked around with this message at 07:43 on Apr 11, 2024 |

With a big aiming reticle that levered out in front of the cockpit you could have like a TIE Sniper

Scarier then a sniper, a ship that could get close to a capital ship with its Ion cannon and hit it with a few turbo laser blasts up close

Or do a TIE Stuka, the way the bombs are positioned already lends itself to it

Phy posted:That Knight mech lookin more than a little Patlabor imo The original z-blob mech has a patlabor-ish (with kinda shorter ears though) helmet as an alternate build too, so might not a coincidence. The raven is cool too, but I'm disappointed how they managed to make a dream t-rex boring.

Minifig series 26 is hitting store shelves in the US, got a space nanny, QR code scanned 6484923. I might pick up another one tomorrow, I really only want the M-Tron, Blacktron, and Ice Planet ones though. This was at a meijer for those in the midwest.

Is bricklink still the best/cheapest way to buy stuff for a moc? I saw a watch charger I would like to make but have not made a moc since covid I believe and do not know if I am missing the new hotness somewhere?

Here's my review of the new mini Millennium Falcon. Looks better than the old one.  Except for this spot.  There are some spots with weak connections. These things flap in the breeze, and the blue tube representing the thrusters popped off too easily.  This is the assembly I didn't like at all. The circled clip and the circled bar clip together and that's the only thing really holding it on.  I would straight up call this step unacceptable. The circled blue plate rubs against the circled blue technic ball in, and the circled red bar nestles into the circled red notch in the wedge plate. They had to know that this was too weak.  The set has some fun techniques. I was enjoying the build, but the thing exploded in the last assemblies and was frustrating to reassemble. Looks cool, not robust enough to swoosh. Frustrating build at times.

That spot seems hard as hell to accomplish with Lego. Even on the UCS one it looks pretty weird.

Decided to embark on building the new Technic Space VTOL and holy crap, stickers... that's an approx A4 sized sheet of them with a second smaller sheet.

drat that's a nasty sticker sheet. I've been mildly annoyed with the stickers used in the UCS Razorcrest (just print em dangit), but some of those are absurdly big. Also:

That’s… huh. Why wouldn’t you just do it similarly to the UCS TIE? Surely the interceptor doesn’t look that different

I think it looks better from other angles and irl    still not immediately sold on it but maybe it'll grow on me like the X-Wing GWP:  New droideka set announced:   New podracing diorama:    I think this one is nice and I like the angles and scenery but I've resisted the dioramas so far so I don't think I'll be taking the plunge. They're going all-in on Phantom Menace huh? There's also a new brickheadz lineup of like 6 characters on top of the recent sith interceptor.
