But that's wrong though, every Lego store employee whose manager attended the LBR conference in Texas last year or the year before that got enough figures for each of their store employees, using these to role play with the kids who are building in the store.

So how long does it normally take to get creative again once you leave the Dark Ages?

I've been fiddling about in Digital Designer for what feels like hours and so far this is all I've accomplished. Maybe it's the interface, but it just feels less "easy to imagine a thing with" than physical bricks (and mine are still buried in storage someplace).

Should I accept I've lost all of my childhood creativity?
>>
>>5721315
While LDD is miraculous tool, I do think it's still much easier to get inspiration while you actually stare at your physical collection instead of just messing around with mouse and keyboard.

However, it may also be because I never bothered to learn LDD and for most part I only MOCed with Bonkle and Technic back in the day
>>
Do we have any idea what time the new Dimensions sets are being announced?
>>
>>5721316
I'll get little bits of inspiration here and there and end up scribbling a sketch in a notebook, but never for a full thing, usually just things like how to make a set of lights look how I want them to (which is still a hard process because I was never good at the whole pegs-on-the-sides thing).

Never had Bionicles or much Technic stuff myself.

Let them have it if they go with it.
I'd rather have a clusterfuck of licensed stuff in Dimensions instead of cluttering Lego Ideas with shitty excuses of sets for having minifigs from X or Y franchise that Lego hasn't made before.

This is a nice solution for that and it seems like TLG is taking advantage of. After all the casualfag just wants the minifigs and probably a simple build related to the franchise. Dimensions packs successfully fill that craving.

>>5721482
I wouldn't have a problem with the volcano vehicules if they weren't green reskins of other City stuff.

They had some neat City vehicles a few years back- the Unimog snowplow comes to mind immediately (first snowplow in 30 years or some shit IIRC), the RV, the more recent bulldozer. Everything else is so similar though it's somewhat sad- it's nice they've finally made 6-wide vehicles the standard, but Jesus Christ give them different appearances! I can understand Mudguards Go Everywhere On Everything, but is there a single City set that doesn't use trans-clear cheese wedges for headlights?

Lots and lots of real industrial vehicles (which most of the City stuff seems to be now, that and various pickup trucks) use old square sealed beams. Use some tiles! FUCK THESE SLOPES

I'll take the case.

I almost couldn't find any new mudguards, but then I remembered that I had bought a ninjago Anacondrai Battle Mech (30291) set that had some. So, I'm proud to present my interpretation of City Team Pack.

Mudguards did because they get stuck on fucking everything regardless of what type of wheel goes under it and it very rarely looks good

Coffee cups did when someone noticed Lego puts a coffee cup in almost every single six-wide single-minifig City vehicle to take up space in the cockpit

as you get used to LDD's way of building you will get better results. It is way more useful for the ones of us that have a "parts list" in our heads and already have a good idea of what they want to build.

If you want to mess around with bricks to see what happens I think real bricks are better.

I figured out how building in it works relatively quickly (just had to learn to rotate things first), but yeah, it seems like that's good for people who already know what they want to make, hence why it's a Digital Designer and not Digital Dump Everything on the Floor and Get to Work.

> If anything you can at least become a better builder by learning techniques you couldn't use as a kid!
It's not just techniques, it's parts, too. From the few sets I've bought since rediscovering how great plastic bricks are, there's so much shit now that I would have literally killed a man to own fifteen years ago.

Bricklink really doesn't give a shit about using graphics that they don't have permission to use.

I read a funny post by the LDRAW (not LDD) designer making fun of Bricklink because it still uses LDRAW renderings for most of its catalog items and they've never asked, credited, or thanked LDRAW for the graphics.

Has anyone bothered to buy any Angry Birds sets?

I got the ship at a rather decent discount, thinking of using the parts for another project. Then I watched Jang's video and I actually liked the cartoonish look.

I'll wait to get home to build it, but I think I'll be sticking around with the original build and wait for another one to go on clearance. Fortunately they are selling rather slowly here.

After listing a few new items in my bricklink store, I'm not really as upset as I was. The new UI is actually working pretty well. I did get a few errors that seemed to go away on their own, so that's not ideal.
>>
>>5722234
Well anon, the construction itself is really basic, and we would have to see an LDD/ webm to decide whether or not it was actually cool.

Of far more pressing concern, however, is that you appear to be a newfag. I don't mean how you said that you were new to /toy/; I mean how you've apparently forgotten (or never knew) that one of the first rules of 4chan is LURK THE FUCK MOAR BEFORE YOU POST. This will save you a lot of worry and hassle wondering why everyone is ignoring you.

True. It's not HUGE, I guess; the next largest one is the Camper Van and that's still just a van, while the new Creator one appears to be a full-size motorhome so it'll obviously be larger.

At least the size makes sense, though; some of the other recent Creator vehicles are needlessly large to fit a minifig despite still coming with them.
>>
>>5722442
on the other hand, 8-wide without the side doodads means the new motorhome will have trouble fitting on your streets/etc and is wider than pretty much any city vehicle other than the Meme Airport Firetruck

I must say that my favourite minifig-scale vehicle is 31039.
