Jeckos150 Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 Hello. I've submitted the following MOC to LEGO Ideas. I know it looks... ugly but I think that providing a magic trick made of LEGO is kind of new. Please se by yourself below : Should you want to support this project, please go to the LEGO Ideas topic there (LEGO account required to vote) : https://ideas.lego.com/projects/c415ad44-09d5-42c6-ab14-3b99d4d0e0bf You can also leave a comment right here if you will. Thanks, bye! Quote
BusterHaus Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 Nice execution, it works very smooth. Quote
dougstar Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 I'm sure he'd have to kill you after you learn the trick Quote
Jeckos150 Posted February 1, 2019 Author Posted February 1, 2019 Thanks all for your replies (and your vote)! As any magic trick, I can't tell you how it works. But you'll know the secret once it is on shelves, if I can gather enough supports on LEGO Ideas of course. I'm working on a way to give it a better look, but the core concept is already there. Quote
BusterHaus Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 (edited) 5 hours ago, Carsten Svendsen said: How does it work? The yellow/black part that is inserted from the top slides over to the right, and in its place slides a piece that's the same color. In short, there four parts that are yellow - three of which slide behind the black wall when the windows are aligned. The fourth one is the only one that's removable. Edited February 1, 2019 by BusterHaus Select the hidden text for answer. Quote
MangaNOID Posted February 2, 2019 Posted February 2, 2019 I hate magic so much! But I’ll support this, it’s very annoying. As you say it looks a little unfinished but make a theme out of the looks and it will be great. Quote
Carsten Svendsen Posted February 2, 2019 Posted February 2, 2019 (edited) @BusterHaus Yeah, I'm not quite sure that I get it, maybe it's the fact that he quickly swipes it, rather than slowly because the camera can't keep up, neither can my eyes. Edited February 2, 2019 by Carsten Svendsen Quote
Jeckos150 Posted February 2, 2019 Author Posted February 2, 2019 I decided to create a 3D model of this box with a better look. I'll let you chose which look it should have among 3 propositions : Magic House : the box will look like a building, featuring some architectural details (chimney, stair case...) serving as structural parts. The beam will feature illustrations of minifigs, as if they were 3 occupants of the house, looking at their windows. https://photos.app.goo.gl/3KUDUWnmKeHQ4mV57 Mysterious Wardrobe : the box will look like a fine piece of furniture in which you would place clothes. https://photos.app.goo.gl/pAMj1jNs5WxES1Lp6 Sliced Lady : the box will look like a classic magic trick. https://photos.app.goo.gl/xgL8hWBVapvqNiSG7 You can answer using this Google form : magic box final design Quote
Jeckos150 Posted February 5, 2019 Author Posted February 5, 2019 Hello! After a few days, one design is being prefered obviously : Sliced Lady. So here it is, in all its glory (and CAD rendering) If you like it, please support it on LEGO Ideas! Quote
Frequenzberater Posted February 5, 2019 Posted February 5, 2019 Looks great! I always loved magic tricks. You should start a small lego series :) Quote
