Lego Amaryl Posted March 14, 2011 (edited) Just few bricks and a NXT kit with me at the moment... so I used Technic beams to build a container: According to LEGO geometry, 6 beams equal 5 bricks, so size is respected!

vgsprites Posted March 15, 2011 My Wal-mart that I work at had 7566 and other fall impulse sets on clearance for 50 cents so i bought 3 sets of 7566 and then I decided to make a Pig Transport Container for my entry. Here we are loading the lil' piggies into the container. Here is a pic of the comforts inside the container. (Sorry the 2nd pic was taken at night and all of the pics were taken with my Android cellphone.) More Pics on My Brickshelf when moderated. Enjoy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pombe Posted March 15, 2011 Thanks for the raffle! I hope that I just made it in terms of when I registered. This was a fun build. I humbly present: The Black(tron) Box We've isolated the suspicious container. Our sensors can't penetrate the walls, so we will have to open it to investigate. Of course, we believe there may be a trap...that is why we are sending the drones to open it. Alright people, get your weapons ready! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bayou Posted March 15, 2011 Here is my container ... It's a battery container for Hoth base. The battry is in the cylinder in the middle of the container, all the stuff around the battery is for controled and managed the power. Who is in charge to build all the containers of this amazing topic and to put them on a Maersk train ?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IAmWillGibson Posted March 15, 2011 (edited) Poor blood-covered baby Dexter in the shipping container after his mother was cut up by chainsaw wielding maniacs. Dude, I was totally gonna do this and then forgot to. I'm really glad you did. LEGO + morbidity = radical. Edited March 15, 2011 by IAmWillGibson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyC Posted March 15, 2011 Well, it took a bit of fiddling in LDD to work out the sizing, but I kinda liked the end result. It's just a basic metal shipping container, although it can't actually contain much as the innards are full of supporting structure! The 'door handles' do stick out a bit, but it's indented at the other end to allow containers to be placed next to each other. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Matija Posted March 16, 2011 Here is my entry: Ostrich Transport - a small and simple tribute to one of my favourite 2010 sets. I instructed the ostriches to keep their heads within the given dimensions, but they weren't very happy about it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TimBurdon Posted March 17, 2011 (edited) First time poster... only took 2 and a bit years. So I thought I would use my head (or someone else's) for this. Edited March 17, 2011 by TimBurdon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gabe Posted March 17, 2011 Ok, so i wanted to build a container home to welcome the new Maersk employees, in the event i should be so lucky in the raffle! I know the door overhangs a bit, so i wanted to show that this container definitely isn't going anywhere. Hope that's ok, but feel free to boot me out if it's not. I had fun building this, that's the main thing! And a shot to show off the furnishings! Cheers! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bayou Posted March 17, 2011 to welcome the new Maersk employees, with a such nice container, they won't work any more ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sarkanyapu Posted March 17, 2011 The impossible container. There is nothing in this container, because there cannot be anything in it, since it cannot exist. This picture has not been edited in any ways, the container fits into the required measures, it is only an optical illusion. Stop here for a minute, please!
