    What was the last movie you watched?

    Dune: Part Two on Wednesday. A good continuation of the events of part one, spoken as someone who's never seen Dune (1984) og read the book it's based on. It feels a bit slow in some parts, but overall a good movie and satisfying to see the conclusion to the events of part one.
  2. That JCB DIGatron looks so cool

    What was the last movie you watched?

    Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom yesterday (Thurs). Quite a good movie I think.
  4. I like the model and I'll probably get it to go with my 42136, but I do think it should have been in a bigger scale. Maybe not Claas Xerion, but both sets would benefit from being bigger, especially this one.

    What was the last movie you watched?

    Last night at my dad's place I watched Event Horizon (1997). Never seen it and although the effects are somewhat dated due to it being a 26 year old movie, it was good.
  6. I sincerely hate the current 2L axle/pinhole liftarms (+o) because of the change in plastic, cos the axlehole in the ones I have basically have no friction, they might as well be frictionless. I don't really mind the new pins, though I prefer to keep them separated from the old ones.
  7. The only options I can see for tree trunks fitting the size of this set would be - 98585 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=98585#T=S&O={"iconly":0} - 6222 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=6222#T=S&O={"iconly":0} The brick exists in brown, the connector only in dark orange as the closest. I checked with some of the 4x4 brick that I have and 4 bricks together are 5L long. Possible logs in adequate lengths made out of these would probably require a 16L axle with 16 connectors or 12-13 bricks, meaning 13-14 or 17 additional parts per log.
  8. If you mean what I think you mean, it's this, released in 2021: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=77765#T=S&C=86&O={"color":86,"iconly":0}
  9. For accessibility, I think the pinholes could be facing down so the windshield could be removed upwards if need be, to make it easier. For the 2 pieces I linked, I have some of the first one and I use 2x of the "pin with pinhole" part inserted in the windshield and then attached to a liftarm with a 3L pin. I don't use any studded bricks in the front to hold it closed and I've only used it for a few SW-inspired fighters, but I would like to have more options that could be attached with pins which I personally prefer. In regards to the plastic and how the trans-clear panel appears to be kinda frosted, I have no idea why they did it that way. The windshield parts, even the ones that have pinholes, are clear and I can only assume it's a different type of plastic, maybe for strength reasons? But the trans-clear/colored liftarms were all made with clear plastic AFAIK and they should be sturdy enough... but maybe it's different since they are made thicked due to being liftarms.
  10. I wish TLG would update the mould of many of the windscreen pieces they've made and make more of them with pinholes to be "compatible" with technic pieces and models. As a fan of Star Wars and starships and a primary Technic builder I've gotten into doing starships with technic parts and although there are many windscreen/canopy type pieces, I feel like many more of them should be made with pinholes in the back, like these: https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=45705#T=C https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=41881#T=C Especially seeing as some of these bigger windshield pieces have a 1L thickness in the back regardless, I think they should be fitted with pinholes to make them more versatile.

    [MOC] Castle Lichtenstein

    Thank you, I looked for it in every category I could think of, but wheel wasn't one of them.

    Excellent model of a really cool castle Out of curiousity, what's the ball shaped part in yellow/pearl gold used as a bowl in one of the interior rooms?

    [Freebuild] The Museum Thief

    Only in the second pic can I see, zoomed in, what looks like eyes inside the green helmet with the green feather. Other than that I can't see any sign of eyes and I can't see any place beyond the armors where he could hide. Nice and stylish scene though.
  14. Reportedly 7L alternating hole liftarm, as it seems to continue to the top of the wings which I've counted to be 7L.
  15. I just have to clarify that I was talking about the regular thick 2L axle/pinhole beams, not the thin ones, in case it wasn't clear I have the same experience as you with the half beams although I generally feel like the axleholes in those, of all variants, tend to crack too easily. I appreciate the stronger clutching power, but I'd rather have weaker clutch if it means the parts won't crack, though the axlehole clutch in the thick 2L beams are way too weak IMO.
