    Modular Building Sets - Rumours and Discussion

    I like it - but with some saying it lacks wow factor I agree and I think that is because the buildings next to it are taller. Definitely think it needs another level or 2 and it would make a huge difference in appearance (but also price). I am also a little bummed with the Dino skeleton. Think it could be bigger / better as well. Will work on that.

    Modular Building Sets - Rumours and Discussion

    As I’ve said earlier - my thoughts are it is a Dec 1 release because the Orient Express will be delayed until Jan 1

    LEGO #21344 - Orient Express

    I'm picking a December release now - got to get it out for Christmas.

    I know the modular release has been ingrained in a Jan 1 release since forever but I'm still of the opinion its going to be earlier - possibly Nov or Dec.

    My guess is the early reveal means early release - most likely December. Which could mean the Orient Express delayed until January.

    It is possible - I've heard that it may be delayed until December / January and the Modular may be released sooner but all speculation until Lego makes the announcement.

    With a big piece count we could only hope for something like a hospital, museum or library

    One of the posts I just read on BrickFanatics stated it works on brick built track which to me indicates is not going to work on regular Lego track. So hopefully we will get some indication soon. Looking at the pictures I’m guessing 8wide minimum.

    Octan Raceway - Top Fuel

    Thanks I tried to get as much of that detail in as possible. The lights was a hard one - I actually wanted to have them running in a sequence but ran out of time so just decided to have them all lit up. Really on a Pro Tree it would just be the green lights on if it was a clean start.

    Definitely one of the best Lego "companies" they have created!

    Octan Raceway - Top Fuel

    Hi everyone, My latest build has finally had its first public appearance - Octan Raceway - Top Fuel edition.. I built this last year to be shown at Brisbricks Chandler Show - but due to COVID it was cancelled the day before the event happened. So it sat in plastic tubs until this weekend just gone when it had its first public appearance. Its 7 baseplates long by 3 baseplates deep sitting on 1 table. I modified a version of the Speed Champions Top Fuel car to have a cage (more popular here in Australia then the dome lid) and also added flashing lights and flames to the cars. (There's a video on TikTok if you want to see it all flashing - search Octan Raceway or StewBricks) I incorporated an iPad as a video screen to show what Top Fuel is for the kids and it was running loops of the 2019 and 2020 Winternats which is the biggest drag racing event in the world outside of America. It will get displayed again this weekend before being dismantled for my next build.

    Fairground Sets - Rumours and Discussion

    Looks like the loops are different as well - one is more tear drop and the other rounder. First one being tear drop should give it more speed going into second loop
