    MOC Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

    This is great! Can't seem to find many other Musical MOCs so glad I found this one, it's awesome, the wings are really well rendered
  2. Well I'm kinda hoping there will be a series 12, and if/when they do end it it's with a round number coz i'm neurotic like that... Since most people are discussing if it'll happen, I'ma gonna go on ahead and name the minifigs I'd like to see... Hospital Patient Ballerina Australian Footballer (black torso with red sash tee hee) Invisible Man (clear plastic fig) Panto Horse Actress Nun Crazy Cat Lady Evil Wizard (the witch needs a friend) Lion Suit Gal Merchild and a Brick Layer ooh and Season 13- a Baker (baker's dozen) So yeah, just some figs I'd love to see though won't ever happen but that's ok.

    365 Days of Lego MOCs

    Thanks! So am I ^_^ Thanks for saying so! The DP ground floor was inspired by a few other builders' techniques, I sort of moulded them into one idea - it's all about learning! Up to Day 25 now guys!

    365 Days of Lego MOCs

    haha, thanks! My personal gripes with it are the Blade- too big but I guess it has that Lego-esque sense of humour about it, the Assistant is too split up, with her head too far from her body, and funnily enough I'm not entirely sure on the curtain ahah, I was experimenting and only half succeeded in my own tough-critic eyes haha. Posted Day 19 earlier, it's called 'Yin and Yang' and I think it may be my favourite so far haha though I'm annoyed coz one of the Chima sets has a misprint in the booklet and I have wasted hours looking around for a second pair of white wings which I'm unsure now exist haha :s oops. I think I've worked out how to resize... I used MS Picture Manager :s Day 13 - Mini Daily Planet Day 19 - Yin and Yang Day 17 - Mini Wayne Manor

    365 Days of Lego MOCs

    I was unsure anybody would like the Magician one so I'm humbled that you do! Thanks heaps! It's just a random fireplace but there are a few HP items in there :) Thanks heaps! Yeah, I'm kinda proud of my miniblack pearl, the HQ pics I posted on my flickr show the detail in it much better. I'm too old to know how to do whacky things with photos on computers so my mistake was pure ignorance haha sorry about that :) Just posted DAY 18, Hope you all enjoy them!
  7. I didn't impose any beliefs on anybody.
  8. Sheesh it wasn't a debate, I was just trying to have a laugh at the fact they have a stoner.. ah, look, never mind, if ya'll can't have a sense of humour I won't bother. And for what it's worth, they already have a gay minifigure- Dumbledore :D

    Minifigures Series 9 Guessing Game

    About the only specific Groom tux I can think of for recent themes is the Modular Town Hall which, good luck buying multiples of that just for the tuxedos haha As it is, the only torso I have in abundance really is the 2010-2011 Hogwarts Gryffindor uniforms, which I kinda want more, and more Slytherin's too haha
  10. haha yeah I looked too that's what made me think it was a MOC haha
  11. I dunno, I don't pay any attention to any brand but LEGO- maybe it was a MOC somewhere? hmmm lol either way I know I've seen little lego babies, thought they were cute!
  12. Are you sure? I vaguely remember them being round 1x1 bricks with closed eyes painted on them or summin
  13. yeah, I sorta do that in real life too, say things dead pan so people don't know if I'm joking or not and it seems to seep into my online stuff too haha but yeah, though to answer the Q- yes, there have been babies before!
  14. I think you both missed the tongue in cheek nature of my post ;)

    (MOC) Abandoned Mansion

    This is an Abandoned Mansion I made for Halloween which I have posted on Cuusoo as a Modular design. http://lego.cuusoo.c...deas/view/29482

    (MOC) Abandoned Mansion

    Thank you! And thanks also for introducing me to Life After People! Up to episode 7 and it's pretty cool!
  17. Since they've got a Stoned minifig (s7's Hippie) do you think they'll ever have a gay minifigure? ie a stereotypical Male Hairdresser or Stylist or something obviously camp? It would be awesome, I know obviously Minifigs are devoid of sexuality but with the stoner already out, it wouldn't be pushing the envelope THAT much.

    Santa's Workshop MOC

    I'm not sure, I gave a very detailed description as well :s Rejected twice, makes me think there's an actual Santa's Workshop coming in 2013!

    Santa's Workshop MOC

    I've tried putting this up on Cuusoo but they've rejected it during 2 stages of completion, but that's OK, here's my Santa's Workshop which is part of a larger Diorama. I'm happy to give anyone the link to the draft page (if that'll work) if you're willing to tell me what I'm doing wrong haha So... what you AFOLs think?

    Minifigures Series 9 Guessing Game

    I beg to differ- whilst you personally might have lots of black suit torsos, even tuxedos, not everybody does, and something like a wedding tuxedo you need multiples of the same designs for the best man and groomsmen if you want to do a wedding moc, so there fore a groom to go with the bride wouldn't hurt as much to everybody as it would to you sorry to disagree :)

    Minifigures Series 9 Guessing Game

    My guesses would be; Hospital Patient - in gown and with crutches Lion Suit Girl - Lion's head head-piece, tail as back printing Scarecrow - Arms out, not down, with small brown stand Ballerina - Tith tutu piece for around the waist Motown Singer - Microphone on stand Strict Headmaster - Pointing stick and apple Nutcracker Soldier - Trumpet, perhaps? Cat Lady - Comes with a pet cat, maybe 39 Brick Layer - Gold Brick (painted but this might be better for the final series) Magician's Assistant - Head box that spins giving illusion her head is spinning via printing on front side Dairy Farmer or Shepherd - Bucket or Shepherd's pole thingy respectively Indigenous Australian - Boomerang and or Didgeridoo Lady Ghost - Glows pink Gold Rush Digger - Small gold nugget and pan Auteur Film-maker - 8mm Camera, or Clap-board, or Roll of film printed round 4x4 tile Flight Attendant - Tray and Wine Glass Some of these are specifically M/F but others are open to interpretation. Though I would very much like more ethnic characters and more females! I know I'm not alone in that sentiment. But I kind of wish that Lego released the official designs one by one over the course of a week or two to build up momentum. Instead of releasing all at once, but I guess quite often retail and catelogues inadvertently release them unofficially so that would ruin the point. Still, I do look forward to hearing what the next list is going to be. OK now I've done that it's time to go read this thread, and pick out YOUR options to make as minifig MOCs, just because I have nothing better to do this morning and it seems like a good idea.

    (MOC) Abandoned Mansion

    I have to disagree- the Modular series is very different, and whilst the Haunted House shares similarities with this one (as it was what inspired it) - They're vastly different- including very different front door sections - as for whether or not Lego would make it *shrugs* it wouldn't be the first time they've released similar/identical sets - Brick Queen just did a comparison of the two Werewolf sets- one from Studios theme and the other from Monster Fighters, and whilst different themes, very similar sets, essentially the same set updated. But also, an abandoned mansion and a haunted house are two very different beasts- one has ghosts, the other is just an old, dilapidated house with noone living there, not even ghosts. :) Don't worry, both of these comments went through my mind when I submitted it - but since the modular theme is very different to Monster Fighters, I figured Cuusoo would deem it unworthy (like they did my Santa's Workshop which is better) and not publish it. Turns out they did it first go, so they must've liked what they saw. But yeah- Monster Fighters = childish, Modulars = adultish, in terms of building, design etc. very different themes :) Hope that puts your minds at rest :) - Besides, I'm never going to get a project to 10,000 votes, this is all for my son to see when he's old enough, if one ever does make it to sale, then that money will be his university fund hahaha but thank you for the nice comments, this is the first thing I've ever made that I liked lol well, besides my rocky horror cast of characters in minifigs.
