Strider98 Posted June 16, 2014 Builds like this put official Lego sets to shame - this could be the start of a beautiful range of minifigure-scale architecture! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Colossus Posted September 2, 2014 (edited) Damn. Every time this thread gets bumped, I'm left disappointed. Why? Because each time there's no news of this becoming a set. See, there's 2 Lego sets I'd pay money MONEY to own: 1) The X-Men Mansion. I'm not talking a glorified facade, I'm talking the fully tricked out build that made 10.000 votes on Lego CUUSOO/Ideas. 2) The Paris Opera House. As is. No neutering for budget's sake, neither. This Opera House build is a work of art in itself, and would be worth every penny. Edited September 2, 2014 by Colossus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CityBuilder Posted September 3, 2014 That is an amazing opera house, it's really huge to! Good work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

andyscouse Posted September 24, 2014 Truly gorgeous work! And first attempt? Wow! PS, I love Excel - it can do so many things - but this the first time I have seen it used for Lego MOCs! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Colossus Posted September 24, 2014 (edited) Paris Opera House (12,000+ LEGO parts) achieves 1,000 supporters at LEGO Ideas https://ideas.lego.com/projects/61827 Hot diggety damn! I love this build, and I know the piece count is astronomical, but I'd really like to get this. If I had instructions, I'd consider working overtime to pay for the bricks to build it. And that's sayin' something. Edited September 24, 2014 by Colossus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Braunsfeld Posted September 25, 2014 Fantastic. Great job on the interior too (pearl gold everywhere ) I like the four-piece orchestra. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VintageLegoEra Posted September 28, 2014 If this MOC is released by Lego, i would be happy to pay for it no matter how much it will cost.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steph 104th Posted September 28, 2014 Superb creation, this is beutiful no matter where you look, very modular worthy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Colossus Posted September 28, 2014 (edited) Could you imagine if Lego did an Ultimate Collectors Series with Modulars instead of Star Wars stuff? I bet this would make one helluva candidate for its first release. I mean, I paid $400 for a Death Star, and that is a huge build with tons of minifigures, but that was before Lego started getting greedy.

paul_delahaye Posted September 28, 2014 This is really top notch, it either never made front page for an unknown reason or I just missed it back in February, true incredible level of detail inside and out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legodt Posted September 28, 2014 Thanks everyone for keeping this post alive. I sure wish some of the blogs would front-page this creation... it would help with getting additional supporters on LEGO Ideas. Any one have any suggestions about how I can encourage the Eurobricks moderators to front page this creation? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TerminalTitan Posted September 28, 2014 Very nice MOC! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jedijon Posted October 1, 2014 Cool building. It's so big it's absurd - as far as LEGO ideas website goes, it's just an ego stroke. They're not going to publish your set. Let's get a stop motion going, this could be way fun! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
