  1. For the "Redesign a set in another theme"-contest at Lowlug.nl I made an Elves-MOC, based on the Ninjago set 70753 Lava Falls. Here's the story behind this MOC: Oh no! The baby dragon Miku just wanted to take a bite at the delicious apple on the other side of the ravine, but then the bridge collapsed! How can he get to the safe side again, without fully grown wings? However, here is Emily Jones, saviour in trouble! Can she manage to get to her friend in time to get him out of his perilous situation? You can view a full set of photos of this MOC on my Brickshelf.

    LEGO Seasonal 2016

    Did anyone save the instructions of set 40223 Christmas Ornament? Just bought the parts from Bricklink, but I can't seem to find the instructions anymore from LEGO's server.

    $70 USD? Let's hope it comes with several additional mazes then.

    2016 Friends Sets - Rumours and Discussion

    I believe the first time this piece appeared, was in 10247 Ferris Wheel, which is a set from last year.

    2016 Friends Sets - Rumours and Discussion

    I'm really curious about the rollercoaster. From Brickset's description, the coaster isnt as thrilling as I'd hoped, but fun nonetheless. Also looking forward to the ferris wheel that's in the rollercoaster set.

    Stuff that's in Dimensions but not its own line

    Woah, where did this rumor about an Adventure Time Dimensions set come from?

    Marvel Superheroes 2016 Rumors And Discussion

    The Bridge Duel set kinda makes me think of this set: Let's hope it's something along the lines, though with a more detailed bridge and a new Spidy and Green Goblin. I know it's just wishful thinking, since the movie is from 2002, but still.
  12. Licensed themes, I love them. From Lord of the Rings and Toy Story to Pirates of the Caribbean and Harry Potter, I always end up collecting some or all sets from a licensed theme. As was the case with the Prince of Persia theme, back in 2010, of which I collected nearly all sets (with the exception of sets 7571, 7573 and 20017). For a short-lasting theme, Prince of Persia had some outstanding sets, which is why I chose this theme for the "Redesign a set in another theme"-contest at Lowlug.nl. For a while, I had been looking for a set that offered me a challenge to build into another theme and after some time, my attention was drawn to set 41108. Because what's better than to turn a modern food market into an Arabian food market, right? So I stacked one brick onto the other and after a while, I had the following result: Here's the story behind this MOC: Help Dastan defeat the Hassansin at the Alamut food market! While visiting the local food market with princess Tamina, Dastan, the prince of Persia, suddenly has to draw his dagger when he walks into an ambush. At the food market, a Hassansin was waiting for him under the stairs, ready to take him prisoner and bring him back to the palace. Can Dastan escape just in time, is Tamina quick enough to save him or is this the last time he's been to the Alamut food market? As a little extra, I made it modular (the roof, de 1st floor and the terrace all can be lifted off for a full view of the detailed interior). On the ground floor, there is the market area. Crates of fruit are all around, a pair of scales can be used to weigh all sorts of merchandize and an abacus can be utilized to calculate the costs of a certain product. And if you have a pressing matter, you can always go to the toilet, which is located underneath the terrace. On the 1st floor, there is the living area. Ring the bell before entering and relax on the bed of nails, enjoying the cake and wine which are already there. And if you want to spend the night sleeping under the starry night sky, all you need to do is climb the ladder unto the roof, where there is a comfy bed waiting for you. You can view a full set of photos of this MOC on my Brickshelf. And don't forget to like and share this MOC on Facebook.
  13. Ever since LEGO came up with Dimensions, my biggest dream would be to have Disney-characters appearing in the game. The "Redesign a set in another theme"-contest at Lowlug.nl finally gave me the chance to use the fullest of my creativity and make up a little set of my own. With the help of Jaaptechnic, who provided me with custom stickers to Westernize Woody's toy tag, I got inspired by the array of multiple mini vehicles the Dimensions-theme has to offer, which resulted in this miniature version of RC. Especially set 71211 gave me the much needed inspiration to get started on this MOC. Here's the story behind this MOC: Go on the adventure of a lifetime with Woody! Yeeha! "There is a snake in my boot." Launch yourself into Andy's bedroom and go on crazy adventures with this Wild West hero! Can you save Bo Peep just in time from the claws of the evil Dr. Porkchop? Use the snake as a grappling hook or as a way to battle enemies and race around in your best buddy RC! Rebuild RC for power-ups and more possibilities!

  14. I bought 2 Unikitty fun packs, just to use the character tag of 1 of them for putting the custom stickers on. If you look closely, you can still see the printed cloud-section of the Unikitty character tag. As Toy Story also sometimes uses clouds as part of the movie logo's backdrop, Unikitty's character tag was the perfect part to customize for this MOC. Thanks. I also don't like Disney not allowing LEGO to use their characters in Dimensions. Hopefully, they'll change their minds in the future.
  15. I don't think so. Shaggy's hair is much more disheveled on the sides than this hair, especially if you compare the 2: By the way, is the mystery hair not just the Sleepyhead's hair in tan? Certainly seems like it to me.
  16. Thank you very much. Maybe I'll try to build some alternates at a later time as I'm already occupied with another MOC that I want to finish before the contest deadline (December 31st). Thanks for the suggestion anyway. A level pack would be awesome indeed. I can already imagine Buzz with a miniature version of the Pizza Planet truck and Buzz' spaceship. Or maybe with a laser shooter of some kind. I'd love to see LEGO versions of characters that haven't been seen before, such as Bo Peep, Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head and Slinky.

    Thank you all for the amazing feedback. I'm astounded by the amount of positive comments this MOC has generated. Again, thank you very much.

    Thanks for the kind words, everyone. Unfortunately, Brickshelf images need to go through moderation first before they become publicly viewable. Hopefully, they'll be online tomorrow or the day after that.

    Don't tell me you've built this in only 3 months? If so, this is quite impressive! Very well done!

    LEGO Dimensions Physical Brick Discussion

    According to The Brick Fan, the Dimensions Doctor Who Level Pack features Bedrock, the home of the Flintstones, as one of the locations the TARDIS can time-travel to (as evidenced in the video below). This brings up a whole lot of questions for me, especially concerning the possibility of future sets, whether they'd be Dimensions expansion packs or a whole theme. (you can see Bedrock from 3:00 minutes onwards)What do you guys think about this? Please feel free to discuss.

    LEGO World NL 2015

    Actually, that's me. Smarth is just the username my brother used when he made a Brickshelf-account in 2007/2008. And since he isn't into LEGO anymore, I decided to take over. I've requested a username change many times, but it sadly never happened.

    2016 City Sets - Rumours and Discussion

    Brickset doesn't have them, according to this article, which is really a shame. I guess the wait is on for the end of next month, when I guess official images will be revealed as TLG prepares to have them for sale on S@H.

    Are those recolored Dimensions-bases as buns for the sandwich sign?

    Almost thought this was going to be a Game of Thrones-MOC or something, but I was heavily surprised.
