Hello!

I just got this beautiful thing in an auction:

Posted Image

Now, I think we should have a little summer fun. What do you think I should make with it? No rules, everything goes but keep in mind I want to integrate it with a City scheme System!

EDIT:
The contest is official now. The rules are very simple: The design has to be usable within a Lego "City" environment, it has to use System pieces and that is all. Yes, it can be a real design, LDD or CG. You have until June 8th!!
Thanks for pinning this!

007, was that an entry?

Yes, LDD or any CG is fine with me (But then again: are those bikes available at SAH?)!

I decided I can offer a prize. Sorry it's nor city-related, I just happen to have these 4 lego Star Wars troopers around (as pictured, no bricks no pistols, because I bought the set just for the guns). I can send them anywhere in the world, so everybody can participate...

The winner will be decided by me based upon sheer coolness. And simplicity. And no-snot-ism!  :-P

I never cared for the trikes Lego offered but i did want a quad. i made my own quad version but those vastly oversized tires looked silly so i did a little tweaking and ended up with something much nicer. i suggest something along the lines of this:

Wait, does it have to be a bike? 'Cause I'd be interested if it wasn't...
Just returned from a 3 or so year dark age, so just getting back into the swing of things. :)

8-° I hope you mean July 8th.

Hopefully, reviving the thread with some replies has generated more interest in your contest. I plan to enter.

Maybe if you request this topic to be pinned by one of the admins, it will generate even more interest...

To be 100% honest, I know how to re-size, Im just too lazy  :-P

Anyway resizing  ;-)


EDIT -Can we change the entery? Because I made some slight modifications and here it is. I re named it to "Overkill". If you think its not city friendly then Ill stick to the first version.

Takuto are you judging the winners or will you leave it up to the masses and start a poll?
