Etzel Posted September 6, 2014 I made this build for Swebrick's annual AFOL vs. AFOL contest which this year was about building a scene from an '80s movie of TV-series in which a vehicle was featured. The entries were anonymous during the voting that was done in knock-out stages leading up to a final which I actually won! Here is the climax scene from the movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" from 1986 when Cameron's father's Ferrari crashes out of the big panorama windows: And a reference picture to the scene from the movie: Thanks for watching! /Etzel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
just2good Posted September 6, 2014 Absolutely lovely model from one of my favorite films! I love the shards of glass on the Ferrari. Heck, if you submitted this to Cuusoo, you'd definitely reach 10K in no time- 80's movie vehicles are the in crowd on there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lightningtiger Posted September 6, 2014 AWESOME 'Etzel'......totally awesome ! The car and scene is perfect.......now what made them think running a car in reverse would remove all those extra miles ? Brick On 'Etzel' ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ER0L Posted September 8, 2014 Very nice scene, I especially love the building, but also the figs look great. The broken glass is very well done. The Ferrari is very nice, too, though I think the wheelbase should be one stud longer to get the proportions right. And I guess you had to omit the legs of the figs to fit them in. But what I really like are those slightly tilted tiles to get a smooth slope above the front wheels - you don't see that very often. It's not so easy to get a good looking vehicle at this scale, but you've done a great job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLegoDr Posted September 8, 2014 Nice representation! Loved that movie as a kid. That part always made me sad...to destroy such a beautiful car. Good thing it wasn't the real thing! You captured it well in LEGO form. I am terrible at car building, but this seems to be a good rendition. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
