Awesome review! I love the elevator, the conference room, the throne room... amazing. I just wish I had a extra 400 bucks now. Strange to think about a TOY like this being 400 dollars...

Those are pretty nice. I like Firenze.

Yes!! Greek! Bloody hell, I would buy so many of those..

That looks awesome. I so wish they would make these sets available!

Power Miners: New Sets for 2009
King Kahuka replied to cartoondude's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
Aquaraiders was OK, but Aquazone really owned. I have tons of those old sets. -
Thanks guys! And I don't think it does damage it, I made this a few weeks ago and it's been spinned a lot since then, and still works fine. It's really good if you're missing a battery box or don't have room for one.

Just uploaded photos of this. This DT-2400 is owned by a small-time smuggler Jex Hantiir. He drives around, smuggling illegal spice and munitions. I built this ship for one purpose only, to test a light-up hand-powered thruster system, with no battery boxes needed. You can attach a hand crank to the nub here: When the hand crank is turning, two things happen. First, the pulley piece on the back spins fast. Second, the fiber-optic brick inside lights up each one of it's lights in a circular motion. If it's kinda dark in the room, it looks really cool. The faster you turn, the faster the lights spin around. This is an absolutely crappy picture of it, but you get the idea. This is the inside system. You can see one motor and the hand crank axle, connected and geared for speed. What you can't see is the other motor. I discovered, if you connect two motors together and turn one, the other outputs power to anything connected to it, and it turns the shaft on the other motor. The second motor you can't see is connected to the first motor, and also to the light brick. The shaft of the second motor is connected to the light brick also. So when you turn the hand crank, it turns the first motor, which provides power and power output to the second motor, powering and spinning the light brick. For more pics, click here. That's all, folks! -Dr. X/King Kahuka

Recently I went on a post-apocalyptic building spree. Because I felt like it. So here are the results. First off, a post-apoc rickshaw. In post-apocalyptic Japan, a survivor took an ancient rickshaw and modified it. First, he added a third wheel, two belt-drive motors and a fuel tank. Then he started strapping scrap metal/wreckage all over the cab, and added a crude steering mechanism. It barely looks like a rickshaw now. This is probably my personal favorite. For some reason, I like it a lot. Next, a post-apocalyptic dog sled (I'm ordering dogs on bricklink and they'll be here soon, but for now here it is without them). Alaskan survivors took to the wilderness with this overhauled sled, adding a scrap metal cabin and even small self-built rocket boosters on the sides. If the dogs are killed in the event of a zombie/raider attack, the survivor just presses a button which ignites the fuel slug (a solid block of some type of fuel) inside the booster. After about a minute, though, the fuel slug burns out and he needs to get out and replace it. Steering is performed with a small third ski underneath. Yay! Opening doors! The megaphone is connected to the inside, so the survivor can shout "MUSH!!" without leaving the safety of the cabin. Here's the post-apocalyptic Battle Volkswagen of Doom, edition 3. I added scrap metal plating, a grate on the front, and other things. The figs are also better. The gun is still 70-cal and still the same. The net holds the sheet metal in place. The last vehicle in the Mocstring is a set I modificated. I have these awesome spring-suspension pieces I traded from a fat friend, and I put them on to it, resulting in sproingy awesomeness. Also added was a grate and some metal/wood. The minifig is Wil' Bill, the craziest survivor in the west. He shoots things, and jumps over things, and crashes into things. That's all, folks! -Dr. X/King Kahuka

Yay! Dead horses! I once saw one of those floating on a lake when I was fishing.

Awesomesauce. I love the engine.
-
Funny funny. I wish they'd make Obama and Mccain minifigs. And a debate table set, with built in power functions!
-
Exactly! It's the best thing for your kitchen since food! I want one. Just like Lego salt/pepper shakers, Lego fridge magnets, and Lego ice cube trays, I strongly believe this jar belongs in the kitchen.

I want it pretty badly, but I hope the MSRP won't be more than like 60 bucks. That Custom Car Garage is waaaay too expensive.

Umm... I got an entire 7-year Lego collection from a friend's friend for only 0 dollars. Best deal o' me life. Tons of sets, instructions, minifigs, everything. I could barely fit it in the car. Also, at a garage sale, I got about 8 old pirate sets for 35 dollars. Include Black Seas Barracuda, Forbidden Island, etc. I sold BSB (I already had one) for 100 bucks. So I actually made 65 dollars.
