Great pictures Holodoc! It was so much fun with you all and I am already looking forward to the next years event Here are the pictures I took: Indeed we are in Bavaria Animals with crazy hair! Legoland Is someone able to read LEGO? Some are pumping... ...some are filming... ...and some are searching for more LEGO? 16 hours for that tower??? It was a looong day! Confused in Munich

Done! I only posted the general pics and not the individual ones. I would say it would be nice if everyone can post their own little presentation in the new topic. That way we can also have a little information - that most of us already had prepared anyway (the ones without could just write a few words) - and not only the pictures. Btw: Great pictures Holodoc! I love the escalator one (Should we not do a picture topic in the Event forum rather then posting them here? Then we can all post our pictures there and it is all nice in one place?)

This years Building Contest for the 15th Eurobricks-Event in Günzburg was: Build your own town in style of the LEGO Architecture Skyline Series. The idea behind it was to learn even more about each other. The rules were easy and as following: Use LEGO to build a skyline in style of the LEGO Architecture Skylines. Use some nice buildings or interesting sight seeing spots of the town you live in. (If it would be suuuper small and there is a bigger town near by I guess it would be fine to use that town. But e.g. don't build the skyline of Copenhagen if you would live in Billund) Keep it in roughly the same size as the models form LEGO. A nice paper print out with some informations about the skyline would be nice too. Have fun! Here are all the amazing Skylines together in one Picture and some impressions of the presentation Special thanks to CopMike for supplying us all with beautiful printed 1x8 tiles with the city names. And now here we go for all the individual entries: Ravensburg, Germany "The City of Games" (by Skalldyr) for more detailed pictures and some behind the scenes building techniques just click here!

I will do this now then. Best I do it in the Special Lego Sub Forum, right?

Sounds not unlikely

So when are the first of you arriving tomorrow?

So many great sets mentioned for 2018 but still I did not get any of them... Even tho I have Downtown Diner I don't really like it and had to mod it to fit my liking. But I think I will buy the Aston Martin DB5 one day. Maybe next year in Billund and then I definitely need that Microscale Hogwarts Castle.

2days to the event 2 years ago we had 2017! That year we also had our Eurobricks-Event in Günzburg. And it was also the year of the celebration of 10 years modular buildings with 10255: Assembly Square. The special 1 & 1/2 baseplates long modular they came up with was a true beauty even tho I think overall the three buildings look rather small next to the other modulars. And so it came that that years modular is not my favorit set for 2017. It was also a great year in terms of Lego IDEAS sets. 21309: NASA Apollo Saturn V with its crazy building techniques and the 21310: Old Fishing Store in its overall beauty are both amazing and real treats for us as fans and I am very happy to own them. But then there was an other set. A true masterpiece in deatil and size. A set that I never ever could anticipate and that I am in love with ever since I saw it for the first time... Of course I am talking about 70620: NINJAGO City! What a beauty! There is so much going on and it is such a wonderful mix of cyber punk and classical japan. It had to be my pick for 2017. Even more runner ups are: 70618: Destiny's Bounty 70911: The Penguin Arctic Roller 71042: Silent Mary (As an unexpected one shot PotC Return ) 10256: Taj Mahal (As a totally unexpected return ) 75192: Millennium Falcon (As an other unexpected crazy return ) What a year... I am totally exhausted by now just from going back in time via Brickset

I really love the look and parts of this castle but I did not have the space nor money for it. There is just so much nice other stuff out there... But really a very good choice for the 2016 set! (Now I need to start thinking what set I will choose for 2017...)

I also think that it should be possible to store the bags at the train station or something similar. So for me personally I would prefer to visit the LEGO store first

I really liked the elves. They had a nice atmosphere to them. And beside the figs they have great parts. But yeah that temple of airjitzu is amazing. Just beautiful to get some pure asian architecture that does not involve dragons, cars, boats, planes or whatever they use in Ninjago-Land

BMW would also be fine for me.

I really would like to own that set. It was out of my price range back then but now I am certainly not paying the aftermarket prices...

Oh my god these are beautiful!!

They have some nice parts in the Fabrik! Let's all hope there will be some left after this weekend https://www.promobricks.de/legoland-fabrik-neue-steine-teile-saisonstart/78413

That one was unexpected but looks like it is an awesome set. I really like all the creations that you build with the parts In general I think creator can be one of the strongest Lego themes!

Holy I totally forgot what awesome sets and waves there were in these past years! I still remember that the confirmation for Lotr sets came on my birthday and I got super excited also because that year the LegoStore of my hometown opend. Sooo many good memories 

Such a great year! With amazing Pirates and Castle themes... Loved every bit of them

What a beast you moced out of that ship! And as a Lego-pirate fan I already loved the original for all its cannons and figures and the overall size. Great set indeed wish there were some more pirate sets in recent years...

That one is indeed a great pic! Even tho I am not into Lego Trains this set is a true classic that I wish I'd have.

Sadly not but I hang out with the people that know how to. My job is to archive them.

Ok, since everyone is posting it in here I will also do that too. The name of my town is Ravensburg

Yeah! Great! I am happy you have fun and I am already excited to learn more about all the towns!
