Thanks! The flames was a last minute idea. During building I was thinking on using stickers but I am not good a creating stickers. The flames can be removed easily for a clean look at the car... I am not sure why Hot wheels MOCs are not that common... I think there are some great models in the lineup that will look amazing in Lego.

When I bought the 42127 set this was the first alternate I could think of. I finally had some time to work on this. I hope you all like it. I used the Forza Motorsport version of this classic Hot Wheels as inspiration. Instructions: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-176634/A_Great_Builder/bone-shaker/#details

This is my second alternative build of McLaren F1 42141. This time I was inspired by Dakar rally and I made a version of Sebastien Loeb's Prodrive RX Hunter. This is the 2022 version and just like all my Technic model based on a real car; I invested a lot of effort into making it as close as possible to the real counterpart. I was able to reproduce the position of the engine, The curved shaped roof, doors and even the spare tire!Functions:- Independent suspension in all wheels- V6 fake engine (located inside the cabin just like the real car!)- HoG steering- Opening doors (Butterfly doors)I am no good at stickers but I made a basic sticker sheet that I am including as optional.Can't wait for the Audi RS Q e-tron???Don't worry! This one will keep you busy. Instructions on rebrickable as always: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-152876/A_Great_Builder/prodrive-brx-hunter/#details

Hello Community! This is my most recent MOC. An alternative of set 42141. For this one I designed a Rat Rod. This was challenging as moving the engine to the front and raise the high of the engine was not easy due to limited gears on the set. And also the challenge of creating a HoG steering behind the seats and not centered. I am pleased with the car frame and I will use it to create more alternatives from this set. I also managed to create a roll-cage to provide a more "sport" feeling. Instructions here: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-144550/A_Great_Builder/rat-rod/#details I hope you like the final look as much as I do... Features: -HoG steering -Exposed Fake Frontal V6 Engine -Independent Suspension -Opening doors

LEGO Star Wars 2023 Set Discussion - READ FIRST POST!!!

Are they? If you do not consider the high of the stud, plates and tiles should be the same. Tiles may have a small round edge in the top but they are the same. Maybe the technique is considered illegal for plates because the studs cause a collision (I just test it!) Anyway, i did not know 21309 use that too. As for the rest of the X-wing; I do also feel there are too many studs on the wings... The rest look good. -

Back to the X-wing: When did this become legal? -
I love classic space ships from the 80's and 90's and inspired by the rrecent release of the Galaxy Explorer set and the Blacktron remake I created this MOC as my version of a modern loking and redesigned Classic Space Ship. Will Lego launch a new Space theme? Well... you can make it happen. If you like this model; crowd support is open for voting until 3/31/2023. Intergalactic Patroller Space Ship Yes I am talking about the Bricklink's Designer Program Series 1. The contest required some limitations related to parts available and color selection. I decided to use a new palette to keep it within contests rules, but I also rendered a few options in "classic" colors. Support if you like what you see. Here is also a link to the video Showing all functions of the model: And here are the color variations just for Fun
