Canadian Catalogs late 80s - early 90s
DelQuinn replied to ImGettingOld's topic in General LEGO Discussion
No luck yet :( the only ones I've found so far are from 1999-2000 with Star Wars in them. Still looking :) -
Canadian Catalogs late 80s - early 90s
DelQuinn replied to ImGettingOld's topic in General LEGO Discussion
I might have some buried at home somewhere. If I do, they'd probably be mid 90s, maybe a bit earlier. Most of that stuff from the 80s are either gone or severely worn out, much like my copy of the Legoland 6000 Ideas Book. I've lost a lot of pages from it. Castle is completely gone and there's only about half of the town section at the front. If I find them, I'll scan them in, but no guarantees -
Getting back to the original theme of this thread, this is why we need to figure out ways to get Classic Space better represented on LEGO Ideas. We can't say that TLG doesn't want to take Classic Space ideas if none ever reaches the 10,000 supporters mark. They are not even getting the chance to say no to them. I knew going into it that the anniversary set would make or break my Ideas project. If they do make a Classic Space one, especially one similar to my project, them I'm probably dead in the water. If they make anything else, I can promote mine as one of the options that can fill that void.
-
My theory is that they'll release 3 or 4 anniversary sets, one for each of the finalists. That, or create a set that incorporates all of the finalist themes together into one. It seems highly suspicious that TLG bent their own rules to make sure that Castle would be included in the final selections.

Yet another 918/924/928 remake, plus a 6894 and a 6931
DelQuinn replied to icm's topic in LEGO Sci-Fi
Awesome builds! Thanks for sharing! -
Thanks for the review! this set looks awesome. My son is getting this for Christmas and looking forward to building it with him. I do agree with your frustrations on not having physical instructions for the LEGO Mario sets but my son prefers to use my phone anyways when building lol

Awesome build! Very well done! I'm already supporting your project on LEGO Ideas. I'm not sure I have much to offer in ways of suggestions, my project is struggling too. Best thing to do is trying to promote your design outside of the LEGO communities as well. You might get some support from horse/unicorn communities in social media

Awesome design! I love the trans-red canopy

I supported the Classic Space Monorail one already too. I haven't seen the Spyrius one before now, for whatever it's worth I'll go vote for it too. I know with my LEGO Ideas project, I am struggling to gather enough support for it. The response I've had from it has been great, awesome comments and feedback but not enough votes yet. With mine, I want to tap into the nostalgia of Classic Space, while still trying to present something that can be displayed on a shelf as well as having playability. Trying to have something to appeal to all ages. That's the spirit of this thread, we need to find ways to better support Classic Space and Sci-Fi projects in LEGO Ideas. For a lot of the winners and 10K projects, they have an external audience to help guild them up (Seinfeld fans, Home Alone fans etc...) but when it comes to Sci-Fi, we have very little places to expand to from the LEGO communities and fans. I know recently there has been a few licensed sci-fi ideas make it to 10K like Red Dwarf and Futurama. I don't know why they were not selected, for all I know, LEGO couldn't secure licensing agreements for them. But I was looking around the expired and not approved projects, the only time a Classic Space project made it to 10K was the Exo-Suit and it was selected and made into a set. So looking at it this wasy, Classic Space was selected 100% of the time it made it to the end. I know this doesn't guarantee anything in the future, but does give me hope.

Thanks! I grew up more with the more white designs too. When I started designing this ship, I wanted to go back to the classic colours that made LEGO Space so iconic :) It was a blast going back to what got me into LEGO as a kid as I was designing the ship, and then the hangar

Modular Building Sets - Rumours and Discussion
DelQuinn replied to The Jersey Brick Guy's topic in LEGO Town
That looks pretty cool, hope it looks something like that. The Modular buildings are one of the things that got me back into LEGO after my dark ages. I got the bookshop at loved it. I also went back and got the Downtown Diner and am currently working on the Police Station. -

There is a flaw in your logic. There have been several examples of exceptions In 2014 the Exo-Suit was released, clearly space themed with 2 green space suits. This followed the Alien Conquest space theme in 2011 and Galaxy Squad space theme in 2013. Not to mention Benny and the other LEGO Movie sets that also came out in 2014. In terms of the CMFs, there are one or two space themed figures in a lot of the series over the years The Pirates of Barracuda Bay and the Creator 3-in-1 Pirate Ship were both released in 2020 And this year they released both the Medieval Blacksmith and the Creator 3-in-1 Medieval Castle
