How do you guys store/organize your legos? I've got about 6 of these bins, as well as a flat bin under my couch and looking for pieces I need has been driving me crazy.
>>5728272
it's a very flexible process, no point establishing hard rules
>>5728272
>childhood bins full of dog hair, megablox, and bits of carpet dirt
>>5728290
Pretty much. Been looking for this little guy's epaulettes for a while now.
>>5728301
>epaulettes
Did you mean pauldrons, my french bro ?
why isnt the curved baseplate on digital designer
REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>5728272
I like to buy snack and sandwich sized baggies. You just throw all the pieces you dug out after each building session in to the baggy that is most similar. If a bag becomes hard to search through divide it up again.
>>5728306
Does anyone else feel that Adventurers was the pinnacle of original themes, or is it just because it coincides perfectly with my own 6-12 era?
>>5728314
i think so too but i was also on the same 6-12 boat as you
>>5728314
6-12 era.
it's a case of "the thing from my childhood is better than the thing from today"
>>5728305
Nah, I meant epaulettes.

By the way, why does 6 hate 7?
>>5728320
Because 7 is greater than 6.
>>5728320
Because 7 joined the team after 6 but gets more play time in each soccer game. I'd be upset too!
WHATS YOUR FAVORITE/THE BEST LEGO THEME EVER /lg/? (you cant just say pirates, you need to specify if you mean the pirates remake, classic pirates, pirates of the caribbean, etc, same goes for space and castle and whatnot)
>>5728314
I have the most nostalgia for that too but I think the best theme ever was castle 2007
>>5728331
Indiana Jones, just for all the cool minifig pieces.
>>5728331
Hard to say.
My childhood was filled with classic pirates/space/castle but I could not choose between Dragon Masters, Imperial Soldiers or Ice Planet.
So I will go with Fantasy Era castle.

yuck. it was so disapointing. would have probably been better if they had focused entirely on lotr instead of the hobbit garbage
>>5728344
Shit son, clean your stuff once a decade.
>>5728331
You know what? I'm really considering Vikings as my favorite. I had to think pretty hard, cus Crash 'em Racers and Adventurers were pretty great.
Anyone remember these?
>>5728320
Because 7 ate 9, of course.
>>5728331
Orient Expedition, if I can't just say Adventurers.
I only got the three smallest India sets, but I wish I had gotten the Dragon Fortress.
>>5728331
chima, and yes im horny for cartoon animals
City Airport ---> Civil War
City Volcano Explorers ---> Nexo Knights
Are there other current themes that seem to correspond with each other?
>>5728352
why were these apparently racist? fucking everything is "racist" now
>>5728403
Game was so much fun, fuck.
>>5728346
Yea the hobbit was such a weak note. There were no architecturally pleasing sets besides maybe the tree.

>Fucking bootlegs in OP
I don't mind discussing bootlegs in this thread, but holy shit. Leave that for /pbbg/
So I just pulled the trigger and bought 70 misprinted heads for a very good price, some of them are nothing special, but can you guys find treasure among them? pic related is 1/2
>>5728493
2/2. Pics are from the seller but I will post better ones when I get these.
Are there any Ninjago experts here?
I've asked this question before, but are there any Ninjago sets that provide good human figures without including any of the ones from the Temple of Airjitzu?
>>5728493
how the fuck do you even find these
>those retarded flesh heads
you gotta make some reaction pics with those
>that green spider man head
>the albino white eyed head
>>5726632
Damn, me too, dog!
My gf's son hates minifigs, so we've got loads of 'em, unwanted. I could buy sets, sell off the figs, and buy him more sets with the spoils.
But I don't have any business sense.
>>5728520
these were listed as custom items in BL (minifig head category). The average cost was $0.28 per head without shipping, which is a great deal in my opinon.
>>5728543
>how the fuck do you even find these
sometimes custom items in BL, sometimes just a standard head listed in a color not the one it is supposed to be (but then you have to be sure it is in fact a misprint and not just a mistake).
>you gotta make some reaction pics with those
Hell yeah!
I liked several of them, that's why I bought both lots.
>>5728538
http://brickset.com/sets/30424-1/WU-CRU-Training-Dojo
I think that fits your needs pretty well.
>>5728552
My friend sold Minecraft figs at an elementary school and made a bundle.
>>5728266
Has anyone recreated op pic related in ldd yet? I'd bricklink one in a heartbeat
>>5728556
It's the opposite of what I need. I already have the sensei and the blue ninja.
I have those twelve figures from 70751 (13 if you count the statue), but I'd ideally have 17-18 ones, for reasons possibly pertaining to the theme of the thread.
>>5728568
So you want different characters, not just different costumes? Then any of the bad guy polybags are maybe usable? You're going to have a hard time buying sets and not getting ninja colors.
>>5728578
looks good! nice use of the nexo knight pieces for the front.
>>5728575
Yes. The set itself give me some real Pokémon Gold/Silver vibes, and I was thinking about having the ninjas and supporting characters be sixteen gym leaders, whereas Sensei Wu would be the Champion.
I also like the idea of having Wu's two swords on the second floor be named Silver Wing and Rainbow Wing.
>>5728587
They're just the perfect pieces for a pilot.
>>5728591
the store is called KickHouse. It has several misprinted heads, torsos and legs right now, but sadly most are very expensive.
>>5728614
>the store is called KickHouse
Ah, yes. I am familiar with Kickhouse.
Should I?
>>5728621
What if they don't even make it out of the group stage?
>>5728554
>The average cost was $0.28 per head without shipping
yowch, i paid ten yurobux for this red misprinted head. Still sort of worth it though.
>>5728620
of course you are! have you decided to keep the marks around the mouth? And I probably said it before but I love that combo.
>>5728621
I already have mine. Being a fleshie fag I couldn't let all those heads, hair pieces and short sleeves pass.
>>5728635
yeah, I was surprised to see these lots, I guess the difference is that these are "failed", in the sense they are 100% true to the original print design. Some of them were suppsoed to be dual-sided but only have one side, while others have 2 different characters on each side and things like that.
>there's a full yellow wolverine among them tough
Hope it isn't screwed beyond use.
>>5728648
>of course you are! have you decided to keep the marks around the mouth? And I probably said it before but I love that combo.
Yeah, they look fine and are actually more muted than they are on a fleshie head, so it all worked out perfectly.
Your haul is 100% awesome. I love the white one with red eyes and nothing else >>5728493 the best. The ones that are all forehead are also spectacular.
Jesus Crust, the Ant Man minifig is trending at $38 on Bricklink. That's even more than Deadpool!
>>5728663
wtf, i just bought that set new for 18 euros in the store
>>5728663
Is the set out of production already?
>>5728663

What's your favourite LEGO colour /lg/?
As much as i love old dark grey I've always been a sucker for everthing between bubblegum pink and purples. Especially the belville, paradisa and the recent friends line are a goldmine for this kind of crack. Got any specific colourschemes that make you pop a stiffy?
Oh, and i fixed some structural instability issues with my monstertruck, lowered it even deeper into the wheelarches and gave it more engine detail.

I considered picking up another Donald Duck to maybe turn into Uncle Scrooge with the help of pipe cleaners for his hair and jacket. I don't use Bricklink so I'll probably have to make his felt hat too..

Microfighters are not so bad.
>>5729002
he could get 3 small sets for its price.
And Star Destroyer IMO is the worst microfigher.
>>5728918
Good luck. Disney minfigs are sold the fuck out everywhere. Maybe there'll be more in the fall.
Also, last time I went to a Lego Store some jackass crop-dusted me.
>>5729009
If I was him (or his parent), I would be looking at one of the 3-in-1 sets that includes minifigs. Maybe even the large RV, if he's been behaving well.
>>5728696
>mfw my MOCs actually are shit
>>5728552
Some examples of what you have? And perhaps willing to give to a good home? I hate to see unwanted minifigs left out on the street and left to fend for themselves against the elements and other dangers. I promise to feed and clean up after them.
Is there any pair of legs that look like striped leggings? Preferably bright.
>>5729124

Guess I'll wait for Lego to make something, then, like I'm waiting for them to put that Harley Quinn/zombie cheerleader twin-ponytail hair piece in a standard set.
I finally finished my Queen's mech exosuit thing, and spent my weekend making a suitable equivilent for the Monster forces.
Took me a long time to figure out a head, and I eventually settled on a 2x2 round butchered to be studless, with a boat stud as a topper, drilled with two holes for spiny satyr like horns.
I'm happy with the overall result, but I'd really like to draw out a head on a waterslide or sticker to apply to the 2x2 round.
Anyone have experience with not ghetto method for applying printed stickers? I'd like the finishing touch to be an actual face for my large hell demon thing.
>inb4 I trigger purists
I really need to make more models...

The hell demon satyr thing is about as tall as my Suit of Armor mech, but bulkier.
>>5729196
>Narrow-gauge.
>Not making it 4 bricks wide
>>5729186
>settled on a 2x2 round butchered to be studless
I don't understand. Do you mean you sawed the studs off a 2x2 instead of using one of these?
>>5729124
>Is there any pair of legs that look like striped leggings? Preferably bright.
http://www.bricklink.com/catalogList.asp?pg=1&q=stripe&catLike=W&catString=484&sortBy=N&sortAsc=A&catType=P&v=1
Pic related might work, but I don't know if it counts as "bright" for your idea. Link is all the leg assemblies with "stripes" in the description.
>>5728552
>My gf's son hates minifigs, so we've got loads of 'em, unwanted.
You could probably make some decent cash unloading them all on here. Do what the other anons have done and post a picture of your collection with your email. People will make you offers.
That's how I got a lot of cool stuff I missed out on like this HAZMAT Lady!
tips for what to build from here?
I was thinking either a second floor with lots of scaffolds or lots of hallways.
Also, how many walls should I build to make it look complete, but be 'open' enough to be able to reach the inside?
>>5729463
1. I think scaffolds around the outside would be cool
2. You should put hinges on the front face (between the doorway and the BURPs) so it can open to reveal the inside
>>5729463
oh no he used rock panel pieces aaaaa
le afols aren't supposed to use those aaaaaaa
>>5729428
That's just Hazmat guy with a spare lady head.
>>5729489
Yeah, but I missed out on HAZMAT Guy in the first place, so when an anon put up the suit (with a lady head) as part of a collection sale in the /lg/ I had to have it. I was very happy with all the stuff I got from that lot.
>>5729488
Screw that, BURPs and LURPs save me so much time and are amazing background filler
hey /toy/ and lurking lego company peeps.
what are the chances of getting a voltron minifig set where the figs are actually lions that connect together with an extra included special bit of some sort? is it even possible ya think? i think that would be fucking cool.
>>5729388
I needed a rounded top (2x2 boat stud) for the head, so I inverted he 2x2 and cut the studs that were facing downward.
The 2x2 plate with hole makes the head too long.
When I take a picure you'll see what I mean.
>>5729554
It would definitely be possible if the lions are large enough to hold minifigs inside. Voltron isn't a super complex design.
>>5729554
Isn't Voltron like Transformer, whereby its own by a toy manufacturer?
>>5729606
No, it's owned by DreamWorks (since 2012), at least in the US.
I'm not sure about the Japanese company, but I think it's Toei.
>>5729615
Oh, and I think World Events Productions still exists somewhere in there.
Eitherway, none of these are a toy manufacturer.
>>5729014
I still have a ton of Disney minifigs around me. Do you need any of them?
>>5729014
They are? At least here in Finland there's still some.
Not lot, mind you, but couple of boxes per store.
>>5729625
Thank you very much, but I have a full set plus some dupes.
Plus, I happen to know that there are five hidden behind the Gorilla Munch at Target. I may go back fro them today.
>>5729186
>>5729388
>>5729565
Ok. So here's my Nexo Knights monsters giant satyr/demon/fire monster whatever with his 2x2 round head as mentioned.
To ask again, anyone know a good decal/sticker/waterslide technique if I'm confident I could draw a decent face in MSPaint? It doesn't need to be fancy, just not totally out of place.
1/3
>>5729680
2/3
>>5729684
3/3
>>5729695
It's a different brand, but Kre-O actually has something very similar to that idea.
>>5729684
Looks like he's farting fire in the thumb nail
>>5729680
My inner purist is dying, the other part thinks this is extremely cool! Good job.
>>5729715
Kre-O IMO has the closest quality, color, and clitch power to LEGO out of any of the off brand building bricks.
They just look like shit because they insist on high school tier CGI box art and promo pictures.
That said, the minifigs are ass, but the bits and bobs are great. Pic related, old MFZ frame with Kre-O bits in the gun.
>>5729727
Drilled holes for the horns in the boat stud. The head itself is just plugged onto some flex rod stuck into a 2x2 tile with centered stud.
Now I just need to figure how to get a custom face on there.
>>5729734
>Drilled holes for the horns in the boat stud.
Woah dude, woah.
I suppose using a decal on it should be the same as doing it on custom minifigures?
>>5728403
Don't you dare. I'm having a shit sunday evening. I can't feel such strong feelings now. Why did Lego stop it. Also post yfw Lego never made physical sets from LU
>>5729753
>Lego never made physical sets from LU
>>5729763
>polybags are sets
>>5729761
I think they're called Kre-O Transformers Micro Changers. I think TRU and Amazon carry them. Kre-O never sold all that well, so you might be able to find them at a discount.
It's worth mentioning they need parts swapped in and out to go between their different modes, but for the scale and price, they're alright.
>>5729779
thanks anon!
>>5729779
TRU is of course sold out and Amazon wants to rape me for twice the cost. GOOOOOODDAAAAAAAAAMNIT

Why doesn't LEGO do a Lootcrate style monthly subscription service. Throw in a mid-tied set/ 2 low-tier sets, a Polybag, a some kind of special annual set broken into 12 parts. and a monthly exclusive minifigure.
So many casuals would sign up for a delivery of surprise mystery LEGO to fulfil their nostalgia tanks each month.
>>5729895
this reminds me of an MOC I made as a kid, based on the Dan Dare CGI show, obviously it was far shittier, and made heavy use of airplane parts, but still, this style is sorely lacking.
>>5729911

Anywhere I can get the lego dimensions game as a standalone disc. I already have the pad but am upgrading from Wii-U to PS4 and don't want to have to put down a hundred something to get another game pad.

I'm pretty sure the pads are specific to each console, you can't just get one pad that works with any console.
>>5730092
nevermind, just googled it and the Wii U, PS3, and PS4 pads are interchangeable
>>5730133
The kind of stuff they give you and the price you pay for them? I mean, you could get a box with stuff that would otherwise cost you a lot more yet they're all shit like dumb 'geek' t-shirts or funko pops or you can get actually cool stuff, so yeah it's all about the kind of stuff you normally get compared to the price

With a lot of the more recent ones including Loot Crate itself have resorted to shoving in as many small things as they can but I have recently subscribed to a service that sends indie games in box and they come with all sorts of goodies which I consider worth it for forty dollars a month. It mainly depends on what you are into so if you enjoy getting a funko pop and a shirt you should be set with most subscription services.
>>5730152
Well, why not? It'd be good for parts and I can sell the minifigs I don't want and make some money
It would be amazing
>>5729264
Pretty great man. How big is it next to a minifigure? Would it make a good scale sized Space Marine
>>5729975

This is a great freakin' monster design. What are the spiked parts on the arms and back from?
>>5729801
Scrooge McDuck, Darkwing Duck, Goofy, Gizmoduck, Launchpad McQuack, Cinderella, Mulan, Tinkerbell, and Robin Hood.
>>5730241
Alice - teacup
Buzz - ship shaped like the package he came in
Aladdin/Genie - lamp obviously
Alien - Claw walker
First time /toy/ poster, but where would be the best place and method to sell all my Lego in Canada? I have roughly 150 sets, mostly from the late 90s and early 2000s. The latest sets from 2007, with some very early (though incomplete) sets from the 1960s that I got from garage sales a while back. I have all the boxes too and 99% of the pieces are in good condition though some pieces are broken, like most of the large silver swords and knives from the 90s have some of the silver parts chipped off, some bikes have their handles broken etc.
>>5730266
Post some pics?
Also usually there is a Buy/Sell/Trade thread going, so you could sell them either here or there.
>>5730266
if you're close to me i'll buy it
u in ontario?
>>5730230
>planning to buy the '80s game pack for Dimensions
>$18
>look at porn for an hour
>add to cart
>price has hopped to $24
>>5730288
Do enough hail marys to get the price down to ten bux
>>5730289
i'd rather do some bloody mary's to soothe the pain.
Why so cheap?

Made an order on cracklink quite a while ago wich when it came in had some missing pieces.
So i mailed the guy if he could send some different pieces as compensation instead.
Two mails and two months later i've pretty much given up on the guy and forgotten about it, but somehow he still replied after this much time. Now he said he'll send it to me, and if i want to buy some other stuff too he'll pay the shipping costs for me when it ships.
Thank you, slow but based axel zöbel.
>>5730281
>>5730282
Here's a few sets I have, the pieces are all there, albeit scattered. Also have all the instructions in very good condition.
>>5730308
oh shit that castle, adventurers, pirate ship and sudoku house
>>5730308
>5986
That Amazon Ruins was one of my favorite sets. You're a smart fella for keeping all of this stuff.
>>5730308
Your best option is to write up a list of all the sets you have (set number and name) and post them here along with any relevant info (missing/damaged parts, etc.) along with an email address. Let people make offers, and use Bricklink to gauge prices to make sure you're not getting hosed. I assume you're shipping only within Canada, so you should make sure the buyers know that they'll have to cover shipping and what that will be.
Nice hoard, good luck!
>>5730308
Ooooh, how much for that Vikings one?
What area of Canada are you in?
>>5730296
offset by shipping costs
>>5730332
Mississauga, though I probably want to sell all my Lego in bulk rather than pick out the pieces and match them up with each individual sets, even though the boat is still fully assembled.
>>5730308
>dragon fortress
>>5730308
I even have a few Lego board games and the boxes to a lot of the pre-Lego Star Wars games for PC. I also forgot to mention that I have a few extra bins from garage sales too.
>>5730357
>I even have a few Lego board games
GIVE ME
>>5730357
Instructions included, mostly in very good condition. Including the board games, race track puzzle, other extras include all the cards and tiles to the Orient Expedition board game (I have all the sets in that series)
>>5730357
gimme that alpha team shit right now BOI
can you make a composite image of all the price stickers on those?
>>5730357
>orient expedtion
A+
also the elephant is worth a ton now
>>5730385
I honestly have zero understanding on how much these things are worth, I have both the light grey elephant from the palace, and the dark grey one from the caravan.
>>5730392
you right now
>>5730392
>I honestly have zero understanding on how much these things are worth

Go here, type in the set number, see what people in Canada are selling it for.
>>5730428
Whoops, wrong image
>>5730392
The dark gray one is going for like $110, but who's going to pay that much?
Light one goes for about $25.
Very cool elephant, anyway.
>>5728331
Adventurers. Recently finished collecting all of it.
[spoiler]Except Dino Island because I don't care about it[/spoiler]
>>5728753
Thanks, I think I'll base my organization off of yours.
>>5730392
>>5730437
>>5730428
>Nobody is trying to scam the newcomer with valuable stuff
I'm glad I'm part of such a good community. You're all pretty nice guys.
>>5730457
They're all just subdivided in progressively smaller bags inside each other.
aight /lg. whats the best 20$ set out right now?
>>5730392
You have a lot of sets I would want to buy.
I'm in London, Ontario so I would be willing to pick them up if you were alright with that.
Might be a lot more convenient for us both (especially considering how expensive it is to ship a large amount of lego).
Buying it all would probably be too expensive though so I'm don't think I'm able/willing to do that. Selling them individually would probably earn more money too.
Wish you were down to sell them individually, but it would probably be a lot of work.
Awesome collection though man
>>5728272
>How do you guys store/organize your lego collection?
My Permanent Roommate got a bunch of her friends together last month and we did a sorting weekend. First a rough sort: bricks, plates, slope/angles, everything else. Then we sorted finer. Bricks sort into 1x, 2x, and bigger. Plates sort into smooths, regular, angles, and curves. Slopes sort into angle (45 degree, tall, and long). Everything else ended up getting mostly left behind, aside from people being pulled out.
I'm planning on doing an even finer sort in the future, but it's not an immediate goal.
>>5729844
Yes please, Warcraft lego please!!!!!!
>>5728314
Adventures and Castle 2007 were the best imo
So much better then Ninjago and Nexo Knight crap these days
>>5729975
Which headpiece is that on Falcon?
>>5728331
Lord of the Rings for myself, some of those sets were amazing and the figures are great.
I put together a display frame for my LotR figures, just need one more fig and still fingers crossed that we get a couple more figures for the missing characters. Dimensions could bring them...
(Also apology for shitty photo quality)
>>5730645
Looks like Magneto's helmet.
Somebody asked about great bargains you've found in an older thread and I didn't really have anything to share until now because we just found the entirety of Waves 1 and 2 of Dimensions at like 25% cost. (With the game and portal, as well.)
Why is now one talking about bricklinks new interface? Specifically how much easier it is to buy parts from a wanted lists.
Or have you guys already gone over this and I'm just late to the party? If that's the case, do forgive me, I've been out of the loop for a while.
>>5730261
I'd also like to see Darkwing and Gizmoduck. As well as Basil and Fidget. The Horned King from Black Cauldron. The ogres from Gummibears. Maleficent's goblins. And Roger Rabbit and the Weasels (at the very least, Smart Ass)
>>5730675
That Kitty is missing most of her head.
>>5730580
I love this thing.
>>5728331
Legends of Chima. Great animal-based designs for the vehicles and buildings, lots of features, the minifigures are gorgeously designed and detailed, and you've got a ton of factions to choose from.
>>5730764
imo that thing just looks ugly and the part usage is just weird on a lot of those Ninjago sets
>>5730764
Ninjago is so fucking confused identity wise.
Why do nijas have mechs and jets and shit? (I don!t watch the show).
>>5730645
It's Magneto's helmet.
>>5729384
I've tried, it's so difficult.
>>5729730
>Kre-O IMO has the closest quality, color, and clitch power to LEGO out of any of the off brand building bricks.
Best Diamond has the best Bricks quality wise from bootlegs.
Can we talk about bootlegs but about their funky designs? I will post few I adore!
I love to use them as jumpad for my ideas.
>>5730045
Yes. I got the idea after reading Scalie Schoolie
>>5730849
>>5730855
>>5730855
I have no idea why But Nexo Knights get TONS of new designs for small sets
