Theme Month for Technic

[VKTechnic]

Shiptember is a sort of tradition among Lego builders to build ships in September, and I thought it would be pretty cool to have something similar for the Technic community. Maybe something like "Supercar Spring," what are your thoughts?

I've never built a ship or boat with my lego but I like your idea. Why do lego builders build ships in september?

More of spaceships rather than boats. It's a sort of annual tradition.

SHIPtember is building a SHIP aka Serious Huge Investment in Parts. Builds are spaceships at least 100 studs in length.

Here is a poster of the SHIPs built in September of this year:

I like your idea of supercar spring

[LegoPanda]

lets do that, which month and what rules?

[Lipko]

Hmm, I envy you guys that you have enough time in a month to finish something good. Or have the time to be well-timed.

Because of the contest that's ongoing for more than a month now and I entered early, my life has been messed up a bit, just to be able to finish the entry in time.

Very cool idea. I am fond of different traditions and it's wonderful when they can be connected with Lego, especially, with Technic. So, if we think about it and make such one, I'll be happy to create a model)

Here's an idea, how about Trucktober? Or Oktobertruck? That would be fun.

Trucktober sound like a great idea, especially heading into the winter season

But that would be a year from now Quick, come up with something for December!

I think it is a great idea, maybe we will see some developments :) In the meantime I'll try to think of something witty for December.

Bustember?

Maybe something smaller, Bikepriel...;-)

Thought of this idea today. 12/21/12, the end of the Mayan calendar, was last year. Maybe something like "The End of the World was n Years Ago" would be a cool theme, and it could progress every year (as the post-apoc civilizations progress, as the aliens take over, etc.).

There was an end of the world theme contest last year in the Eurobrick Action forum if I recall.

Maybe a build a Technic clock or calendar month? A Time Tech month?

[LegoPanda]

i like that idea, lets build clocks, with PF and mindstorms

[Energo]

I like the idea of post-ap...It'll be very interesting to create things connected with such theme. Moreover, it's not a problem to combinate all liked themes some way.

[Junpei]

I like post-apocalyptic too, makes me think of the post-ap vehicle by Zblj. I think it's a great idea, it's OK if two different subforums have the same theme for a contest IMO.

[Lakop]

I like any idea that gives me a chance to create. The post apocalyptic theme has always been my thing in the past. Sci fi also appeals. I like the clock idea too.
