On these new speed champion slicks, is there a good way to cover up the axle? I’m thinking of trying to get a black round tile in there maybe, just curious if anyone else has messed around with em

Flyinglemur posted:I just built the new McLaren today, so I don't know if this helps or not but here are the wheels and different things about them The M prototype has FIVE windscreen stickers. And it’s also printed. I have the McLaren set waiting to be built, I’ll check out those wheel covers… if they had just used black axles on the bmw set it wouldn’t be so noticeable.

SadisTech posted:I built all 5 of the new Speed Champions models today. Both BMW models use flat tiles in a way that greatly disturbs me - the finished models have flat tiles clicked in edgeways between studs and left to sit like that! It's just not right dammit! The unsecured stud and tile stack near the exhaust on the M4 still haunts my dreams

Deus Ex Macklemore posted:One of our friends got my wife the Road Runner/Wile E. Coyote block heads set because she loves Wile and assumed that since I like Lego, she did to. They were wrong, but ok. Yes. There are some excellent jokes along the brickheadz line of smaller or otherwise different (color mostly) brain pieces as well.

Google “Honda element moc instructions” and there seem to be a lot, unless you wanted specific opinions about what’s out there Also knowing what scale you’re looking for might be helpful if you’re looking for recs (6-wide, 8-wide, something bigger)

3 in 1 would also be good because people could build whatever they wanted and everyone would feel like they got the same thing (I’d like to think this wouldn’t matter for adults but)

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

I tend to build stuff without stickers at first and this thing looks naked as hell, and the lines of the car aren't matching the real thing at all; even taking Lego into consideration.

when are they going to just buy more aws time or whatever when there's a big launch, geez

Also, a Speed Champions safety car is a really fun idea. aye fuckin great another big guardians ship to replace the benatar which replaced the milano before it.

I mean it’s way smaller scale than the falcon (or, larger scale in number of pieces I think) but I do have the last iteration of that set and like it quite a bit

I feel like trying to recreate the Mona Lisa in Lego shows a lack of understanding of what it’s about, like…. Maybe it could be done well but not as a commercial product probably, but really best left alone.

smackfu posted:I honestly thought the Architecture line was dead. I guess it’s like one bigger set per year now which isn’t bad. Definitely buying I love these new landmark sets and my wife actually likes them so some of them can live outside of my office. My theory is they’ll come back and do the smaller buildings and skylines and poo poo when it’s been long enough.
