Am the only guy here with limited fictional media taste?
StudWorks posted a topic in Culture & Multimedia
Hello! I am a 22-year-old LEGO builder on the spectrum, I build mostly cars but I am also a fan of fantasy media and like building stuff from my favorite franchises. I only like fiction media where anything taking in the real world is relatively realistic (like The Office, with no superheroes, time machines, aliens, etc) and anything in a fictional high fantasy world (a closed fantasy world like Middle Earth, not something "isekai") can happen since it has no relation to the real world. Because of this, I feel like the only nerd who's only into a single fictional genre with very specific tastes. For example, 99% of Star Wars fans I see (something I like) are also into Marvel and superheroes (something I dislike), and whenever I see someone's LEGO MOC collection, it looks like they're practically into every movie/game series ever made! This had made it incredibly difficult for me to be myself and find friends who I can relate to, and has made the idea of attending a Comic-Con or anime convention seem impossible so I was wondering if anybody else here feels the same or know people that feel the same. Thanks.- 4 replies

42177 Mercedes G500 4X4
StudWorks replied to SNIPE's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I can't really imagine this set being based on the old 4x4 squared. And I would love for this set to be RC like the upcoming Porsche GT4 e-performance (which may or may not introduce a new generation of LEGO RC) and I think a G63 4x4 squared in red (below pic) would be really cool. But I'm not even sure if this set will be the 4x4 squared or not as it only has "4x4" in the name, perhaps being a normal G-Wagon (without portal axles) and with some type of 4x4 system in the set. Plus the G500 (also as in the set's name) is the regular G-Wagon, the current 4x4 squared is only available in G63 AMG form. -
[MOC] Maserati MC12 (1:8)
StudWorks replied to ArtemyZotov's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Love it! Ever since I saw it on Rebrickable I really wanted to build it too (in white and blue), but the parts cost is still a little pricey for me at the moment. -
[MOC] Money for Nothing, and your bricks for free
StudWorks replied to jp-30's topic in LEGO Licensed
I absolutely love it! I'm a huge fan of 1980s music, and I'm disappointed too that the 1980s LEGO Ideas challenge is for TV Shows and Movies only. (apparently there isn't ENOUGH sets for 80s Shows and Movies ) Please tell me whenever the general LEGO Ideas submission is posted so I can vote! -
Technic 2024 Set Discussion

As yellow is my favorite color, I've been waiting for a yellow or yellow-orange 1:8 car and I hope they do it! -
Technic 2024 Set Discussion
StudWorks replied to Ngoc Nguyen's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Honestly I would rather have a Solus than a 750S, as its frankly just a facelifted 720S. (Charbel made a 1:8 720S a few years back) Nonetheless I think whatever it ends up being it'll be great. I'm curious though about how the rumors of the car being purple started. If the car is going to be a 750S it'll likely be orange as that's what the press photos show it as, and the past 1:8 cars have always been in press photo colors (AKA the first color you see on a car when it is unveiled). -
I'm for one incredibly excited for this set and I would want it as soon as it releases. Any imperfections the Rebrickable community will tidy it up in no time.

I decided after two years to tear apart my 10295 Alt Build Countach by Firas Abu-Jaber and use these pieces to graduate to Rastacoco's Countach. Before I get to tearing it apart I wanted to share some photos, because a little over a year ago I upgraded the Countach to make it look more authentic. Among these upgrades include more accurate headlights and front area, white rims that used to be on my Volkswagen Beetle set (made it a Fuchs Beetle!) mirrors, new bonnet and trunk, new scoops, the iconic Countach wing, new taillights, more accurate cleaned-up interior and trunk space (plus removing their "color vomit"), a beautiful engine bay, and custom stickers. There's probably more I haven't listed, it was a heavy revision!

Licensed Lego Ideas - Support & Discussion
StudWorks replied to Captain Nemo's topic in LEGO Licensed
I made my first LEGO Ideas project, Mega Man X - 30th Anniversary! The figures have authentic articulated joints and many fun accessories from the game series. X has his X-Buster with normal and charged shot effects, and all of his armor upgrades (head, body, arm, and foot) with the super charge shot effect, as well as four changeable facial expressions (normal, angry, shouting, and smiling) for normal X and for his upgraded helmet. Zero has his Z-Buster with the same shot effects as X, and parts to swap his armor to the lightsaber-wielding Zero in Mega Man X2 and onward with his X3 Z-Buster and Z-Saber, as well as four changeable facial expressions (same as X). Both X and Zero also have posing stands and plaques with famous in-game quotes on them, plus a plate with a Heart Tank, Sub Tank, and 1-Up. There's even a Dr. Light Capsule for X to stand in! -
That's why I planned on making the instructions free. This is allowed since you're not monetizing off of it.

Free instructions will be available on Rebrickable in the near future. The figures are part of my Mega Man X 30th Anniversary LEGO Ideas project. Your votes would be appreciated!

I had the exact thing happen when I placed some of the sloped bricks for the hood on my Peterbilt 389 Dump Truck MOC. Thank goodness for BrickLink. I wonder why Lego is not doing something about this.

I'm building the Star Wars Dagobah Training Diorama that I bought for Christmas and I had two "ouch" moments so far. The first was the edge of a black 1x8 tile on the base poking me under the nail and the second was during the placement of the 200-something trans-green pieces for the swamp. I realized "dang, for a building toy suitable for young children Lego pieces can poke the crap out of your fingers!" and decided to make this post. What are your most physically-painful Lego building moments? I'm gonna take a guess that just like me most of them involve being poked under the nail too.

Future Set Wishes and Speculation
StudWorks replied to SheepEater's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Contradicting the predictions of Aston Martin Valkyrie, I think the newer and upcoming Valhalla has a better chance and is so far probably is my number one prediction. Honestly seeing the car's pictures it kinda looks like an AMG One with an Aston face.
