The Lego Movie 2 - The Second Part 2019 Set Discussion
Peppermint_M replied to Feng-huang0296's topic in Special LEGO Themes
SET DISCUSSION! Say it with me S - E - T. You know, the little plastic bricks that we build with. NOT THE PLOT OF THE MOVIES. There is a thread in a whole subforum dedicated to the Multimedia that comes with LEGO these days. Go and harp on about the plot, the meta story, the "politics", in the correct place! -
Though, there is something of a disaster if they tip over. I use one for MF heads and it was set in a place that was secure. But one day disaster struck, the whole thing was tipped. And some choice words were all I could do! It took some picking and re-sorting afterwards!

REVIEW: 71023 LEGO Minifigures - The LEGO Movie 2 Series
Peppermint_M replied to WhiteFang's topic in Special LEGO Themes
I certainly want one of each of these (maybe not Unikitty). They all look fun and I'll certainly have uses for all those spiffy parts. Personal highlights - Scarfield the cat, aww what a cute kitty! Lucy's apocalypse gear is very versatile. Candy with her cassette tape (what a flashback to my childhood) and that toolbox with a classic space logo -
The Lego Movie 2 - The Second Part 2019 Set Discussion
Peppermint_M replied to Feng-huang0296's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Ok, so what the actual heck? Why is this sort of discussion suited to the SET discussion thread, as in the toys that come from the film NOT the plot of the film. Or the plot of the past film. Or any of this Piers Morgan style dismissal of people who do not conform to the 1950's accepted norm. So, take it the heck away from here and no one will be having any trouble. -
That is a lot of Nice Part Use there. Really liking some of those techniques and colours. Thanks for sharing it with us

There is also a chance of eBay or Gumtree or Facebook marketplace supplying what you need. Again, maybe a problem in Asia where the market is still pretty new for LEGO.

MOC: The Great Sphinx
Peppermint_M replied to Peppermint_M's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
That obelisk is just filler right now, once I have built more for the diorama, the are it is in will be leading on to another section. I just thought it looked too blank when I set up to photograph. -
MOC: The Great Sphinx
Peppermint_M replied to Peppermint_M's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
Thanks for all the kind comments everyone. Like I said before, I am making plans to replicate the other set features and expand the diorama in a similar style. Also, thanks for sharing that cool layout Western Outlaw. I never managed to get that Indy set and my original Sphinx long left its original form. -
Wonderful build! But Steampunk lives in SciFi, so I shall move it over there
-
Yes it is! I got the set and had the idea for building the MOC. Yes it does! But this was put together from parts on hand well away from my build area and my full collection. So I was forced to work with what I had (a shoebox of mixed small creator polybags, mixels and magazine freebies). I like to work with limits sometimes.

Intigrating official sets into MILS modules
Peppermint_M replied to Elana-chan's topic in General LEGO Discussion
It might not fit the MILS system then. If I understand correctly, it is not allowed to be larger than 32x32 and it cannot overhang. One of the few solutions is to "peel" the baseplate off the set and then build the MILS requirements in. Or you'll need to simply sit it on a 32x32 that has the MILS bricks in. -
[MOD] Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey - use Lego technic parts for motorized modification
Peppermint_M replied to bbqqq's topic in Community
As this is a clone brand,I am going to move it to community. While the mod is impressive, people get tetchy about Non-LEGO products in the main part of the forum. -
Local Hospice shop and also the Heart Foundation shop has had LEGO too. The hospice shop has been a source of many good finds for me.

Another way to gather parts, if amassing any LEGO at all is your goal, is looking at the second-hand market. Though, in Asia I do not know how active or affordable it is. Here in the UK, charity shops, flea markets, local selling pages and the like can supply parts very cheaply. On the weekend I picked up a box of bricks for £4 (£3.49 actually, but it was a charity shop, so I donated the change).There was clone brands in there, but once I parted them up I had a fair amount of LEGO at a good price. (And a lot of brick for my "monkey box" of bricks for kids to play with).

Diligitis the Fairy dragon
Peppermint_M replied to The Chosen One's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
What a wonderful dragon. Thanks for sharing it with us, but I must ask: Why the spoiler tag to hide the picture?
