  1. Hi guys, just want to show you some upgrades that I did on the TMNT 2014 Movie set #79115 Turtle van takedown which I acquired last week. It's not much or even considered an MOC, but nevertheless an effective one to further enhanced playability, especially if you're on limited budget like me. Being a a big fan of TMNT, I already owned most Lego TMNT Nick cartoon sets (thanks to my7 y/o daughter and her persuasive demands for them), I welcomed this strange, disfigured 2014 "Michael Bay" turtles...despite the critics, I like them, the 2014 movie adds different and unique gesture of TMNT we all know and love from the 80's The title is pretty much self explanatory with main objectives as follows : - Enhanced interior details - carries all four turtles AND their weapons. As much as I love the intimidating Lego version of the van, which obviously is HUGE , resembling a 'tanked up' Winnebago and not to scale as compared to the movie (much smaller 60's Ford Econoline), I felt that the stock interior seriously lacks detail, and wastes so much space considering this is a pretty hefty 8 wide vehicle. I was mainly dissapointed that we can't simply put all four turtles on board, in van which is named after these awesome foursome...major flaw in my opinion. So I went into my parts inventory and made some alterations! I added some details in the driver's compartment, printed slope which represents center dash consoles, probably to control the weapon ,and audio systems LOL, a security club to represent the auto transmission shifter, and printed 1x2 tiles, representing the center function buttons to select Power/Eco/Winter mode, and perhaps the opening function of the side doors. And a fire extinguisher, God knows what the turtles might set up on fire accidently LOL On the rear I added a pizza tray for the "99 cheese pizza", for Mike to devour, with Raph next making digital compilation for their upcoming new hip hop album, and song playlist for April! I made use of many 1 x 2 stud jumpers to allow them to sit side by side For safety reasons, they must store their weapon on board (imagine flying katanas and sai's during sudden braking...could be lethal), so I made a weapon rack to securely place them. A simple detachable rack with an iphone dock...the phone itself commands the locking mechanism, so the weapons will only be released by punching the right security codes! LOL. The red/green round tiles is the indicator for the weapon status. Red is LOCK..duh.. None of the parts are touching despite the seemingly cramped space, so all bricks and figs are properly place on the studs, the roof and side closes properly and flushed. And most importantly all these mods left the original exterior design..which I like..intact Thanks for viewing this meager modification of mine guys, pardon the low quality photos! All comments are appreciated.
