  1. I would definitly be honoured if my MOC was being mass produced. Rather would have Lego doing it, but still. Anyway, got my Lepin Cafe Corner yesterday and finished it last night. My thoughts: (This is NOT to promote Lepin in any kind, but to warn people that might be getting tricked) - There is no 'LEGO' stamp on the stud circles, the're flat. - The qualtiy is amazing, it's one on one. ( I might be taking a stud to my laboratory to investigate plastic structure and possible metals and compare to real Lego) - Birds are different, as well as front door. - I was missing a brown 1x1 slope, and a light grey 1x2 brick. Also I had 2 4x12 dark grey plates io 4x10. My genuine Cafe Corner is at my sisters house, so I will compare thoroughly in the next days. But be warned, as a long time Lego builder I can say, If you didn't know it, you'd think it' s real Lego. The easiest way knowing you buy a real set, is just to look if the studs have the LEGO stamp.
  2. It's actually a good idea. The blue/white modular is the international hotel MOC modular. Love to see the MOC candy shop as well. Is the one on AE also a MOC or is it created by Lepin itself. ( I highly doubt that)
  3. Please do not judge people you don't know. And remind that this thread is also a warning to be cautious when you buy a loose Cafe Corner, Falcon etc. Back to topic: A new 'Lepin Lover' has arrived!? Bought my first Lepin. A Cafe Corner. It's on it's way and should arrive tomorrow. If this all goes OK and I'm happy with the quality I will buy a Millennium Falcon.

    10247 Ferris Wheel

    I'm a little disappointed it doesn't fit on a truck. I love the mixer for being on a truck. Also, 199 dollars wil definitly mean 220+ euros in the Netherlands. I will decide when I've seen the official pics.
  5. Today I was at IKEA and bought a nice lamp. It looks like a death star. I think you can create a Nice Lego death star out of it by glueing little grey Lego plates onto it. I'm not a MOCer myself, but maybe someone here can try it. I think it will be great looking. Here's a link to the lamp: http://m.ikea.com/nl...s/art/40251119/ EDIT: Here are some pics of the lamp. You can open and close it.

    Review: LEGO Ideas #007 Exosuit

    In the Netherlands the status changed from 'expected september 11th', to sold out. Strange, because today I read they will be doing more production runs.

    LEGO Star Wars 2014 Pictures and Rumors

    I thought the new summer sets would be selling at S@H by now, since they are sold in the Lego stores for a week now here in Europe. Is that normal? Selling in Lego stores and online way later?

    Here in the Netherlands still no VIP release on the S@H site. Anyone?

    The LEGO Movie Sets News and Discussion

    I saw some pics on google+ that the new movie sets were out in a Lego Store in Canada. Also some other new sets.
  11. Mine just arrived. Dimensions of box are : 47.5 X 57.8 X 12.5 cm
  12. Ordered one! It's 250 euros in the Netherlands, just like Germany, No +20 Benelux ripoffs this time. On the other hand, glad I don't live in Finland. (300E)
  13. Since there is much info the last couple of months on the 2014 releases, what is your 'definitly going to buy' list for this year. And ofcourse WHY?. Here's mine. - 2x Star Wars AT-AT. My little sons love Star Wars and they both love the walkers. - Lego Movie Sea Cow ship. I love the design. Not sure if I am actually going to build it. Thinks it will stay sealed. - Lego Movie Bennies spaceship. Love it! I got a lot of Lego Space when I was young. Brings back memories. - Lego Simpsons house. Love the design and I also think this set will be the 2014 top investment of Lego sets. No need for me to build it though.
