Remember to take a whirl at one of these June challenges anons:
>Build a minifigure of a Star Wars character that doesn't already have one.
>Build a robot command centre. You figure out what it's supposed to be a robot or command them!
>Build something that's mostly Lego but uses some third party/off brand pieces.
>Build a brick-built wheelchair that looks better than the one in 60134.
>Build something based off of another anon's MOC.
>Fenimiminismninimism- Give your female figs something BADASS to ride around in! Bonus points for minidolls.
>Make a Fighting arena for your two most badass minifigs!
>Go to the Lego aisle at Walmart and startle someone
>Home Sweet Home - In honor of Captain Rex's AT-TE, rebuild a vehicle into a mobile home for your favorite figs.
>June Bride. Set up an impromptu wedding between your sig fig and another fig, or your waifig/husbafig and another. Bonus points for celebrity guests, full musical acts and ultimate points for treating her/him like a princess/prince with a "fairytale wedding" (fancier the better).
I have a ton of opened lego sets (star wars, indiana Jones, etc) that I want to sell. Can I make money of these sets if I have the box, manual, and all the pieces in good condition? Is there a good place to sell them?

How much money do you think I'll make back if I sell minidolls and chairs and such, more or less everything that isn't the van?
any known reason why Lego chose not to paint the legsof the new Spidey minfigs? :(

What sets have him with the boots?
>>5743128
Its moulded not printed!
I asked this right before the other general ended, but do you guys think 15 bucks for Blue Spaceman and 7 bucks for ghost was a good deal? Only flag I can find on the blue Spaceman is slight bite marks on the helmet.
>>5743207
just the sandman set. You can just order the legs on the bricks n pieces on shop@home
More new toys
>>5743212
no its a terrible deal. Thats why you got no answer!
>>5743212
sorry anon... they're usually way cheaper. but hey what's done is done. i suggest checking the average price on bricklink before buying next time
>>5743222
Each of them should be about five bucks top! Bricklink is your friend!
Anyone else pick up a winner's podium yesterday? I was just released from 4 weeks orders and headed home when I stopped by a Toys R Us on my route to pick up a game order. Game didn't yet release like I thought it had so I was leaving the store when I passed the Lego demo area that was set up for the event. Had a decent amount of kids but they were mostly playing with the bricks provided to make cars, so since there was no line (and probably because she didn't want to say no to the guy in an Army uniform) the girl kindly let me grab the parts to make 2 podiums for my kids. This was my first Lego event set, I'll be looking out for more.
>>5742556
especially old dark grey, love that rusty feel it has compared to new dark bley
>>5743239
I would've but I didn't want anyone to think I was autistic
>>5743241
Nothing wrong with using both together either.
>>5743253
I still kinda hate lime green though.
It's what's holding me back from buying that one treaded monstrocity from the new volcano line.
Pic related is the only moc i made that features the colour visibly.
>>5743212
meh
yeah they're cheaper on bricklink but once you figure in shipping and wait time I think you got an alright deal, I'm not wetting myself here but it's okay
Now build them a sweet haunted spaceship.
>>5743241
>especially old dark grey, love that rusty feel it has compared to new dark bley
same here, I wish Lego had kept it.

In the end you were a double-edged sword, transforming space digger
>>5743128
Probably made them in a different factory than the one that can do two-toned legs.
>>5743278
Thanks anon
I like this one better

Thirded. Chains in particular look really good in old dark grey, they've got that worn look to them that comes in really handy while new dark blue-grey just looks lame.
>>5743447
>they've got that worn look to them that comes in really handy while new dark blue-grey just looks lame.
While I agree about the dark gray/ new bley, the new(ish) silver chains are spectacular in their own right.

>It's what's holding me back from buying that one treaded monstrocity from the new volcano line.
You mean this one? It should be simple enough to swap out the lime green for a different color, there isn't much of it and it's just standard pieces, nothing weird.
I might pick it up and try to redo that weird punchy-drilley thing on the back to recoil the other way so it goes down instead of up, I dunno. Not a huge fan of those wider tracks, I like the thinner ones you usually find in the construction stuff.
>>5743461
The new silver chains only come in the short size, right? I use a lot more of the longer 20-length chains.

>mfw Dimensions Supergirl will probably be SDCC exclusive
>>5743712
Even Lego knows that the Dimensions line is more /toy/ than /v/ material.
They just found a way to make it more appealing than Infinity was.
>>5743793
meant to be a reply to >>5743714
>>5743801
It's not like they pretend to revolutionize the TTL market with their game. If that was the case they would to something more akin to what Fusion is (was?) regarding construction mechanics instead of recycling the TT Games format with the added crossover possibilities.
It's still /toy/ if only for the fact that all the packs are completely compatible with existing lego, And they wouldn't have it another way. It's clearly designed to be used in an out of the game.
Also, it wouldn't get the fraction of the success if the minifigs were glued to their bases or using an otherwise non-compatible format.
>>5743801
I bought dimensions sets solely for the parts. Sure is video games.

Build it in the bag!
>>5743560
That's a pretty cool idea. you can build a smooth surface and put another magnet below that and have him move around on it.
I rigged this up for today's game. A 1x6 underneath the click hinge lets me extend a floating part out as far as I want, to the limits of the clutch.
>>5744030
Worked really well for this because it was able to hold all the weight.

IT'S THE PIZZA DELIVERY DUDE
THE DUDE WITH THE FOOD
Either Lego releases faun hair with red skin or I'll be forced to perform non-reversible heretical surgery to it.
Since surgery is the most probable outcome, what would be the best way to go about this, painting or dyeing the ears, or maybe carefully snipping and shaving them off completely? What would be the best way to recolor Lego in general?
>>5743463
Can't fucking wait to see these sets out. I want their excavators for my construction crew.
>>5744057
That back part for her wings looks like trash anon, just get the black breastplate from brickwarriors.
Also, yes I agree, we need sexy horns with hair soon.
>>5744036
>is it whatever's going on in this little space?
Yup. Good eye.
It's a 1x1 with stud on each side.
>>5744062
>it's dick time
>>5744066
I have it and normally use it, but had to cobble this together for DFC points. I honestly don't like the armor though since its one huge black solid mass covering up most of her red skin, especially when going for a more natural demonic look
>>5744072
Ah yeah I get you, more time and patience I suppose and we'll get the pieces we need.
Some people are recommending committing heresy on the demonic headpiece from the upcoming Ghostbusters 2 car but it's just a recolored Gargoyle's headpiece, not that convincing to me.
This is better I think, although I've gotta clean up the under-cleavage and probably snip off one or two layers of shoulder flaps so she can actually raise her arms.
>>5744131
BIG LEGO TITTIES
How do "new in box" prices work generally? I hate buying used goods, so I want to get a good understanding of pricing so I can plan some purchases. Do older sets really increase much more in price over time, or only when they're first officially discontinued?
For example:
The 2014 Light Repair Truck is a cute little set that has an RRP of $10, which you could probably have gotten for $8-10 back in 2014. Now, it doesn't look like you'd get away without spending at least $20 after shipping for the set. In another year, would that set be much more $20? Or is it just that initial "Retired!" status that doubles the price?
>find out that part you need does exist
>it only just came out
>its in that huge technic porsche you don't want and there's only 1 per set, so it'll be like 10 dollars
http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?P=23948&in=S
>>5744211
rest in piece
>>5743440
>Freddie Mercury vs Orcs
>>5744211
I guess it really depends how badly you want the piece. Honestly the set itself looks pretty nice, I wouldn't mind shelling out for the whole set and just replacing the piece and displaying the set.
>>5744216
BIIIIICYCLE!
BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICYCLE!
>>5744223
Nah i realised (math, you know) I was better off using multiple axles, one of them odd.
>>5744306
try the 1 x 1 tooth pieces for the front
>>5744306
neat!
>>5744312
eh, I don't think it looks that good with them.
>>5744306
Oh hey, that windshield was first used in the actual Speed Racer theme, wasn't it?
>>5744066
Not sure how I feel about boob moldings on Lego figures.
>>5743569
Nah, people just try to get attention by having sets of $1 and then get the amount they want out of a single item in the super lot.
It's against bricklink policy as it messes up the price guide.
>>5744385
Best learn to love it as soon we won't even have boob line prints as anything but absolute androgyny will be considered too extreme for Lego
>bought Ant-man set
>came with 3 wings
Well then. Hopefully this doesn't mean that the weight is off and I'm missing some other pieces.
>>5744436
Better build it right away and make sure!
Or do the smarter thing and lay the parts out on the table organized by the parts inventory at the back of the instruction booklet.

Why did I wait so long?
So I've got the haunted house set, and I'm thinking, will it look any good next to some of the other modular buildings?
Also what are good looking, fun to build modulars? I was looking at the detective one
>>5744496
Office -> Restaurant -> Bank -> Rest that are available.
>>5744496
I can't recommend this one enough
>>5744500
Did it actually come with the gun?
>>5744511
No. It didn't come with an all-black shadowy assailant either. And I had to remove the third-floor stairs to get the background clean enough for that shot.
>>5744558
It also didn't come with this face or a bottle of cheap bourbon, but I still think it's outstanding.
>>5744436
I always get worried there will be some pieces missing when I get extra pieces. Has anyone had it happen yet?
>>5744584
LEGO always includes extra pieces, but if there's pieces missing there's always their brick replacement service.
>>5744209
The first bump of NIB prices is just after discontinuation because that's what first both makes the total number produced finite and scarce to walk into a store and buy, aka "oh fuck thats not made anymore I didn't get that one yet I need it nao" and then finding out only BL/ebay stores have it.
Later, NIB goes up bit by bit year by year, but it's not entirely predictable how much because it's dependent on things like how good the set is or how many cool parts come only in that set or how good the theme it fits into was or how many people hoarded all 7 copies of it that they bought on clearance right as it got retired. Once you get to decade-old boxes prices ain't ever coming down as not many are available to change hands - how many still-unopened sets can there even be? - and people experiencing nostalgia of their childhood have way more money as an adult than they did as a kid.
Licensed stuff (Star Wars, for example) will have old-NIB prices fluctuate more, as a new movie or something spikes interest temporarily.
tl;dr anything that's both 1 year old and on sale price is a thing to buy even if just for hoarding to profit from later
Would like to do something different with the color, but I think it looks good so far

>>5744834
Yes. The fire and air dragons have larger wings and the white dragon a larger head.
>>5744845
Not saying anything about the film or figs, but the car is objectively better as a toy.
Wonder how long until original gets retired and modifications for old one to have opening doors and trunk.
>>5744869
Same with me. Though I'm in a dilemma. I despise the movie and really don't want them to make any money off it, but I need that set in my life.

Plus the best Fett since Cloud City.

Hey guys, haven't posted in a while and I got a question. What pieces are in the PAB walls and Minifigure Bins around now? If anyone's been at the Tysons Corner Virginia one specifically, that's a huge help.

Don't really have a favorite, but favorite design type is generic citizen with generic face. Aside this I really like what is in pic related specifically.
>>5745083
What's that free exclusive knights set?
>>5745105
A classic knight with an arrow launcher, like that Classic Spaceman with a robot.
>>5744794
Both. Definitely both. I'm wayyyyy to hype for the Lego ideas one. It'll probably be the greatest set yet unless they totally rape the original.
>>5745069
Nice pick. Here's mine. I always use him as a mini me in my space mocs
Can we just take a moment to admire how fucking gorgeous this is?
>>5745130
Yes.
I'm gonna buy one as soon as it relases for us non-VIP plebs and give it to my dad for his birthday, he owned either a '69 or a '70 Beetle when he was my age and I'm sure he'll get a kick out of it.
>>5745137
Why do you not have VIP?
I've been working at the Lego Store for three months now! Starting next week, I'll get the full 50% employee discount!
Should I get the Ghostbusters house, or wait for the blue Beetle?
>>5745141
Because I literally just got back into Lego about three months ago and haven't done anything online yet.
>>5745145
There's a 50% off employee discount? And I'd get blue Beetle.
>>5745145
If you don't me asking, how much do you get paid?
>>5745130
I don't even care about the set, but there are too many nice pieces in it to pass it up. Those new pieces they've made for the wheel arches look really good and I'd love experiment to see what I can do with them. We're finally getting the flat 1x1 semi-circle piece in bley which is great too. And all with this set there might finally be enough dark azure piece variety to make a decently sized moc.
For the first time in a while I'm actually excited to buy a set.
>>5745179
As someone trying to get many bricks for their money, is this a good set?
>>5745186
if you desperately need small blue and tan bits
>>5745160
$10/hr for brick specialists.
>>5745190
I just need bricks in general.
Tell me about 7-wide cars.
>>5745186
>>5745200
Like this anon said >>5745190 It really depends on your idea of 'value'. Personally I myself love fucking around and experimenting with new elements, and I really like the dark azure pieces, so for me the set is good value.
Though if we're talking traditional value, as in price per brick, I think (could be wrong though) the average is around 10c per part. So you can do the math yourself to work out what sets are good value for what you want.
If you're okay with cleaning and sorting then maybe consider buying 2nd hand lego in bulk from local garage sales or craigslist or your local equivalent.
Those big buckets of pieces aren't a bad idea either if you're needing to flesh out your collection with new pieces. (pic related)
If you're looking for value though stay away from star wars and other non-lego ip's. The prices for those sets are jacked up to around something like 14-15c per-piece.

Assuming you're talking about pic related, the piece has actually been used for a couple of years now, it's just appearing in dark azure for the first time in that set is all.
>>5745208
>Dark azure
I think it's actually closer to a deep Capri...
>>5745230
Actually it's probably more of a shadowy cerulean if you ask me, but I just go by what the color is listed as under bricklink.
>>5745227
That's the one. What fucking sequence of events led to the meeting where Sven and Ole Legoman were like, "Guys, guys, I've got it: Fuckin' thirty degree flat angley bit with a fuckin crossbar. This solves everything!"
>>5745239
Oh, it has an official color name? Never mind, then. [spoiler]Cerulean is actually just a dark Capri, you'd have to lighten it a little to get that color[/spoiler]
>>5745244
>Cerulean is actually just a dark Capri
More like Capri is just a light Cerulean, shit is a literally who in terms of colors when you compare it to Cerulean.
>>5745244
>Cerulean is actually just a dark Capri, you'd have to lighten it a little to get that color
Well that's shows how little I know my colors then.
>>5745248
Oh, it gets a city in Pokemon named after it and suddenly Cerulean thinks it's better than everyone else? Well, Capri had a whole brand deal with a juice-pouch, so Cerulean can back the fuck off.

>Less plastic = more profit
I've noticed more and more how they're cutting out plastic from everything, like the minifig-scale tools (wrench, oil can, etc) and the radio set that's been around forever now have giant holes in the back or both sides so they can save the .0005 ounces of plastic.
>They're dumb

I mean sure, I'd work at the lego store for 10 dollarydoos, but with the money they charge they can pay better.
>>5745145
Speaking of the blue beetle, would it be better to jump on that immediately or wait to see what the Disney World castle set looks like? I'm interested in both.
Hey guys. Are there any decent mech/robot building techniques, sites, or groups that can help me start building?
I used to fiddle around with them but it seems like so many new pieces have come out that made joints a lot less finicky since I last tried my hand at it.
For reference, my last big innovation was combining bionicle joints to make fairly large robutts. I could never seem to get too close to a minifig scale power armor like I always wanted.
I've seen some cool pictures, pic related, but I just can't wrap my head around all these new things and reverse engineer them like I used to.
Thanks!

0.0005oz x 100,000,000 units is 50,000oz worth of plastic.
>b-but why
Odd dimensions are harder to build than even dimensions, and there's no real benefit beyond a (possibly) slightly-more model-accurate build. Almost any feature of a 7-wide vehicle can be emulated with a 6-wide.

Forty-five degree angle. It's decently useful occasionally.
>>5745431
>>5745447
>>5745450
I honestly wouldn't know the difference these days.
Aside from the holes in the 1x1 rounds on the bottom left pic. That just screams modified to me no matter what company we're talking about.
I'd appreciate it if it were noted what else is blatant heresy.
But thanks anyway, guys. This Mobile Frame Zero thing seems pretty cool.

I'm so torn. I want them because they're the only lego dragons with molded heads I think, but they are just overly feminine. I don't mind waifu dragons, but goddamn.
>>5745562
The Vikings line had at least one Dragon with a molded head
>>5745562
Ninjago also had molded dragon heads
>>5745562
>>5745586
>>5745594
Not that guy, but
Ninjago dragons were overmolded with this crap soft stuff so kids didnt poke out eyes.
Vikings dragons were too bionicle/technicy for system builds IMO
These are striking a nice balance in terms of mold, with some careful design they could really hark back to dragon/fright knights dragons.

That is to say, with careful design of printing.
The printing on the elves ones pretty much suits them to one kind of dragon... super cuddley ones.
I want 21st century pic related
Arizona /lg users, we now have a Bricks and Minifigs on Dysart and Mcdowell roads in Goodyear!
>>5745609
I'd love for an update to these guys. Always wanted a set with one growing up, never had the chance though.
>>5745606
Personally, I think pic related might be the best dragon to date, even if its actually a wyvern. it has folding cloth wings and a brick built head instead of some ugly mold. I've always thought dragons like this looked best.
This guy also makes some of the best dragons out there imo, I wonder if he lurks on these boards- https://www.flickr.com/photos/nujumetru/
>>5745634
That is pretty rad. I might get that... Wouldn't leave the feet as is though, theyre the thing that annoy me about the little wyvern/dragon in the small ninjago set, which is also a really good brick-built.
I hope they do more sets like the legend beasts in future, they've been a highlight for me, exactly the sort of set I would have loved as a kid.
>>5745606
The fantasy era/castle dragons seem to be what you're craving.
>>5745609
>I want 21st century pic related
Look for the one from the Vikings line
>>5745641
mmm no, not quite. Poseability isn't great, don't want huge bits making up entire limbs.
Basically, a head like that fantasy era, but just the head as in elves, maybe with cloth wings like >>5745634
the rest brick built a la legend beasts.
I mean, I'll do it myself anyway. But that'd be a rad kind of set.
How much longer until TF2 and HL2 join Portal 2 in Dimensions?
>>5745664
Until they both spontaneously become T-Rated.
>>5745664
I can't say why exactly, but the midway arcade level reminded me a lot of Half-Life 2.
>>5745664
>I AM HEAVY WEAPONS GUY
I really hope the anon that's been working on pic related comes back. So far the design is sexy as fuck and I really wanna see the progress thus far.
>>5745657
Well, the option's there for you.
It ain't LEGO for nothin'.
>>5745687
What are you trying to make here? I missed the last thread and a half.
>>5745708
I don't really think its about the content. It's about the principle.
>>5745713
>reading comprehension
>>5745664
Dota 2 minifigs would be nice. The map would be fun to put together too.
Thinking of making a Lego itabag. What's a good tool to cut baseplates?
>>5745826
Scissors
>>5745069
this little guy
also the explorien droid

Admiral Ackbar
>>5745069
I always liked this nameless Jedi from the 2002 Republic Gunship.
Remember chrome lightsaber hilts?
I have some from 2001. They're among the rare few pieces of childhood Lego I could salvage.
You think I could make a desk fountain from Lego?
>>5745949
Without water? Yes.
With water? Still yes.
>Oh fucking sweet bricklink lets you upload .lxf flies directly to wanted lists
>failed to upload file: part not found in catalog
>and because it cant find that one piece it refuses to upload the entire god damn file
Well I guess I'll just go fuck myself.
So how the hell am I meant to get a parts list uploaded from an ldd file to a bricklink wanted list now? Brickficiency is no longer supported as of the bricklink update and LDDmanager hasn't been updated in years and is missing a fuck tone of the newer pieces. What other options do I have?
>>5745594
Are you talking about these? Because they don't look very good.
>>5745284
ECTO-1 SHALL BE MINE!!
>>5745977
From what I have seen, usually its color. The colors are marked differently between LDD and BL. Youll have to go through the list, looking up the part number until you find it.
>>5745911
That guy looks great.
>>5744808
GATTAI!
>>5745977
>>5746009
Yes, probably, maybe. What the fuck is this message even trying to say?
>>5745977
Oh shit, you can do that now? Fuckin' NICE.
>>5745069
Don't know about licensed ones, probably something from Star Wars, but I think Antimatter is my favorite original one.
>>5746061
If you can get it to work please do tell me how you did so.
>>5746071
Just did it with this model, worked perfectly!
Huzzah!
And a shot of the list.
I don't think it's anything to do with me using unextended mode like I always do; it's just like the other anon said where most likely there are components in your model that do not exist in Bricklink. Mine uses all existing colors and so it presents no problems. If you edit the file it should be fine. Good luck!
>>5745069
Does Spinlyn count? If not, then I have to go with Ult. Warrior.
I half expect him to tag-team with Benny when he builds his "Spaceship!! Spaceship!! Spaceship!!" By "Filling the spaceship with the rocket fuel!"

Okay so one of these pieces in ldd is causing the upload to fail. Ill do some testing and tell you guys which one it is once I figure it out.
>>5746104
Walmart employee here. We don't give a fuck, we got more important shit to deal with and the last thing we need is to get fired for accidentally making a kid cry.
>>5746136
Good luck anon! Remember, it's more likely the color, not the component itself, that's causing the issue.
>>5745687
Anon who made this. I'm away from my parts for a week. Stay curious and I'll get back to you. Thanks for the support.
>>5745713
Anon who built the barstar here. This is what it looked like. Will finish with a back section that flares out. Keen to get back to it.
>>5746183
what did you have for food
>>5746183
was that some spaghetti? Just had some with meats and alfredo sauce the other day.
>>5746245
Did you have Pip Pips or Cheerios?
