Hello! I own the 8527 Mindstorms NXT set, in like new condition, and am looking for a buyer! All parts are present, including the red and blue balls, CD-rom, user guide, and original box. It was assembled once, and then shelved. Price: Please send me an offer! I am looking for something a little lower than similar Bricklink listings but I am willing to negotiate. Shipping: I will be shipping the set from USA. I am looking for sellers in North America so I can provide free shipping, but if the buyer is out of country then I might have to add part of the shipping costs to the total price. Please DM me if interested! (sorry for the blurry photos, these were taken on my camera and not my phone)

Help needed with simple rc program for 51515
whitepen posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
So I was working on a simple rc program on my computer today with my new 51515 set and was trying to make it rc using the keyboard (up arrow=forward down arrow=reverse left arrow=left right arrow=right) But it is hard because there is no "when no key pressed" block to my knowledge. The robot I am using is THIS. Any help would be greatly appreciated. -
[MOC] Thundertank Transformer , alternate creation using LEGO Creator 31152
alanyuppie posted a topic in Special LEGO Themes
As a fan of Creator theme, this year (2024) is quite an exciting year for me. I build Transformers alternative creations and sets with decent parts count and ball joints are highly desirable. And set 31152: Space Astronaut fits the bill! Upon acquiring set 31152, I immediately build the space puppy model, and skipped the other 2 main models as I was very excited to MOC something out of it! To get the ball rolling ... I made a Thundertank Transformer using the said set. Thundertank is one of the most iconic vehicle from Thundercats cartoon series from the 1980s. One of the main feature in this tank is the pop up cannons from inside the cabin, which I implemented in my creation as well. The robot mode is articulated and very posable. \ BUILDING INSTRUCTIONS Building instructions can be purchased from my rebrickable page (link below) https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-174217/alanyuppie/thundertank-from-thundercats-cartoon-transformer-alternative-built-of-set-31152-space-astronaut/#details -

Blacktron I revisited - spaceships, cars, and robots OH MY! - finished in real life 3/12/24
Murdoch17 posted a topic in LEGO Sci-Fi
Blacktron I rises again! "You are now entering the Blacktron sector! This is the absolute limit of the Classic Space quadrant! You have been warned!" ...sorry about that. Had to get the legal stuff out of the way first! Anyway: Blacktron long-range fighter "Buzzard" Above is the two copies of the Blacktron XL-15, which are now dubbed the "Buzzard" type starfighter. So back in January of 2023, I decided to convert the XL-15 spaceship from the film "Lightyear" into original Blacktron colors. The blue became yellow, and white was turned to black, with all the trans-green removed. I added laser blasters under the wings where some technic pins are and put a different control tile in the cockpit. I was thinking about building a second ship, but then again, getting some of the parts from Bricklink was a total pain due to extremely low quantities in the needed color. (I'm talking about you, 3 x 3 wedge plate in yellow!) Thankfully, I bought one too many of both kinds of the yellow 12 x 3 wedge plates, as they are very rare as well with only one store selling four of each kind in the USA, which made making the second one easier later on. Blacktron command vessel "Executor" In addition to the two Buzzards, I wanted a Blacktron capitol ship. I had no ideas of my own ship, so I spent most of the afternoon of 10/5/23 taking Benny's beloved spaceship from The Lego Movie and corrupting it into a twisted, evil version. I revamped the nose, removed the expanding wing assembly and snub fighters. Of course I then recolored it almost exclusively in black and yellow. (some gray was unavoidable!) I armed it with a turret on the top rear where the sensor array once was, and put the commanders office below where the wing mechanism used to be. To keep with the one-word naming scheme of the original Blacktron, I borrowed the name of Darth Vader's Super Star Destroyer, decreeing this ship the Blacktron Executor. I struggled to think of an engine flame color that fit OG Blacktron, but eventually trans-light blue was selected. Since the wings don't extend anymore, I added a third section for figures with a turret on top in their place. The rear-most section lifts away, but the rest of the roof sections are supposed to fold open. The ship seats seven troops and 1 commander. Blacktron giant robot "Destructor" For this model, I used parts and ideas from the Eternals line's "In Arishem's Shadow" set 76155 (body / head / upper legs / upper arms) along with claw from the old Agents 2.0' "Robot Attack" set 8970. The lower legs and laser arm are (modified) holdovers from the "Build Better Bricks" Iron Giant instructions. (I need to fix the laser arm's elbow joint but I keep forgetting!) Blacktron "Shadow Runner" space car Recently, while I was on my Blacktron kick, I decided I needed a vehicle for the commander. So, after a few false starts with other models, I dusted off this old TRON Legacy Light Runner model and went to town modifying it. The model originally was made five years ago (was 2018 really that long ago?!?), and is based off the two-seater TRON set 21314 MOD that was made by BrickBrosUK and posted on Brickset here. The name Shadow Runner is a play on the Light-based vehicles from TRON. Blacktron minifigs These pilot minifigs are from the GWP with back printing (gotten from Pick A Brick) while the commander is mostly from the Series 19 Galactic Bounty Hunter CMF. NOTES: To be honest, I've had these built since at least last November, but finally got around to taking all these pictures just yesterday. Thoughts? EDITED 3/12/24: real world photos added and text changed around. -

[MOC] Kai's Elemental Fire Mech
Traykar the swift posted a topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
Wanted to make the mech a bit more unique build-wise while also bringing in multiple elements from the Climber Mech. Also, I feel like the Elemental mechs released this year would have been way better if they had each come with an extra limb to further the mix and match gimmick. -

Hello everybody, I am finished with my entry but I did not have time yet to post any WIP content. Nevertheless I took some pictures during building, so I can show you my design process now: The CRAB - ROV - Camouflage Robot for Arctic Biotopes - Remote Operated Vehicle The idea was to build a sideways walking robot with an appearance like a crab. The leg kinematic is based on the Klann linkage: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klann_linkage This kinematic is actually used in some underwater walking robots right now, so I thought it to be reasonable to use it in some arctic vehicle. At first I created a test vehicle with 8 legs: Crab robot WIP 2 by n8walker23, auf Flickr Crab robot WIP 1 by n8walker23, auf Flickr This proof of concept went fine, the legs can easily move, rotate and lift the vehicle. The gearing down of the drive motors is not even necessary. The next task was to shrink that mechanism, as a smaller vehicle would be even more efficient at moving as fast as possible without straining the linkage or overloading the motors. A kinematic for the claws had to be designed as well. My layout would be: one motor for back four legs, one motor for front four legs, and one motor for each claw. So this was the next stage: Crab robot WIP 3 by n8walker23, auf Flickr Crab robot WIP 4 by n8walker23, auf Flickr The motion of the sensors (the eyes) is coupled to the motion of the claws and it has some simple bodywork. The eye motion can cover an area of roughly 45 degrees. This design was followed by the next optimization loop: Crab robot WIP 5 by n8walker23, auf Flickr Crab robot WIP 6 by n8walker23, auf Flickr I am quite happy with the bodywork at this stage. The rear propellers are driven simultaneous with the rear legs and the front legs are connected to a two-cylinder fake engine. The weight of the robot was 787g. Roughly 350g of that are the electronic parts. Now it was time to streamline the construction, decrease part count and weight and improve building quality. At the next iterations the robot would be modular. This made it much easier to apply little modifications, as it is not necessary any more to disassemble everything all the time to get access to critical regions. Also, I replaced the fake engine by a fan, as i found a combustion engine not really fitting to the concept. Crab robot WIP 7 by n8walker23, auf Flickr Crab robot WIP 8 by n8walker23, auf Flickr Crab robot WIP 9 by n8walker23, auf Flickr Crab robot WIP 10 by n8walker23, auf Flickr This is the final stage of the robot. Weight is reduced to 738g. Now I need to do some programming to have a nice remote control and to get good pictures and maybe a video as well. Regarding the colour scheme, I tried some variants, but some choices are already set by the colours of the mindstorms parts: Crab robot WIP 11 by n8walker23, auf Flickr I think (e) is looking the cleanest, so this scheme is applied right now. Most fitting to the contest would be (d) i guess, with mostly white and yellow. But I think it is a good idea to use the turquoise of the mindstorms box somewhere else in the model so the box does not stand out too much. This leads to a solution like (b), but I think, that is too colorful. What are your thoughts on that?

Hi, everyone! I hope, your Christmas was really merry. I've got a little present for you. Model of one of the best antagonist in videogame history. Genetic Life and Disc Operating System - GLaDOS And also one little nasty moron - known as Wheatley Originally I've this model out of real bricks lo-o-ong ago and it was hanging above mu desk ever since. This year I finally decided to digitalize it and, in process, make some improvements. Most important of which are - upgraded wire-like things on the sides, improved stability, ball-joint at the neck for better poses. And, which I am really proud of, I managed to add an offset for her yellow eye - so one white side is a bit wider, than another. Thanks to the ball-joint - GLaDOS and Wheatley's head are easily interchangeable - if you prefer this worst of all idiots to be at the head of your facility) If you want to build this model yourself - I've made instructions: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-168045/CogInTheMachine/glados-and-wheatley-from-portal-2/#details

Motorised Johnny 5 MOC <Not an Alternative Build>
RJ BrickBuilds posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
01 by RJ BrickBuilds, on Flickr Hello, Bozos! You can support Johnny 5 on Lego Ideas to turn him into an Official Johnny 5 Lego Set here: Johnny 5 on Lego Ideas Who is Johnny 5? Those who don’t know him, Johnny 5, also known as “S-A-I-N-T Prototype Number 5” or Number 5 for short, is a very lively and inquisitive military robot prototype who’s perpetually hungry for more “input”. He is the star of the 1980’s movies Short Circuit and Short Circuit 2 and a TV special called Hot Cars. He became sentient when he was luckily struck by lightning during a combat demonstration. Although he is designed to serve the military as a robot prototype, he has an adorable child-like behaviour and has a great respect for life. He is a peace-loving robot and refuses to use his military capabilities to harm others. Despite being very intelligent and inventive, his naivety and trusting nature has been taken advantaged of on several occasions. Design This model is fully motorised using Powered Up motors and hub and controlled through a mobile device using the Powered UP App. It uses Technic parts to ensure stability of the structure, and System parts to capture the look and form of Johnny 5. The following are the playable features of the model: Movement – This model can move around on tank tracks and uses skid steer to change directions. Body – Johnny 5’s body can tilt using a Powered Up L motor and controlled using a mobile. Arms – Arms can be raised and lowered individually using the Powered Up App. The fingers can be adjusted manually as well as the elbows. Head – The head can be tilted and turned using the Powered Up App. Eyebrows – Eyebrows can be manually adjusted to suit the desired facial expression. Laser – The laser at the back can be raised and lowered using the Powered Up App. Watch the YouTube video here to illustrate these functions better: Johnny 5 on Youtube Total Pieces: 2,711 Dimensions: Studs: W 68.4 x L 36.1 x H 73.5 Inch: W 21.5 x L 11.4 x H 23.2 cm: W 54.7 x L 28.9 x H 58.8 Weight: 99.8 ounces or 2.83 kg Johnny 5 MOC Pictures: 02 by RJ BrickBuilds, on Flickr 03 by RJ BrickBuilds, on Flickr 06 by RJ BrickBuilds, on Flickr 05 by RJ BrickBuilds, on Flickr 04 by RJ BrickBuilds, on Flickr 07 by RJ BrickBuilds, on Flickr 08 by RJ BrickBuilds, on Flickr 09 by RJ BrickBuilds, on Flickr 10 by RJ BrickBuilds, on Flickr -
Hi all, After posting pics of my childhood hero Grendizer, I'm sharing some of his cousin Mazinger Z ! He's one of the most famous giant robots of Japan, and I tried to get his proportions right while maintaining great posing value, with joints on all the important places - it's been a challenging build ! I'm very happy with the result - so much that I made some adversaries for him, such as Doublas M2 : When the fight gets very intense, Mazinger can suffer - Here's what he looks like, inspired by the fight he lead in his final episode : And I'like to share a special version I made, inspired by the proposal seen on the Lego Car Blog to build in yellow and blue, which prompted me to make a symbolic gesture to support democracy : The fight is hard. War is ugly. But these cartoons - Mazinger, Grendizer - taught us life is more important than everything. And freedom is paramount. You can see more pics on my Flickr album ! Alexandre

12 legged Lego Walker inspired by Strandbeest
shroomzofdoom posted a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
The specs: - 12 legged walker - Driven by 2 Lego Technic Large angular motors - Powered by Buwizz 3.0 - 1 Technic L motor powers the deployable spinning Lego buzzsaw - 1 Technic S angular motor to power the Lego arrow shooter Sorry Lego purists, but I had to use some non-Lego parts in this design: - 4.7mm aluminum tubes front run the width of the robot providing lightweight articulation of the legs in lieu of plastic axles - Stainless steels axles are used throughout the driveshaft due to the inherent limitations of backlash and breakage caused by the Lego plastic axles - Small nuts are threaded onto the upper leg pivots to maintain the connection as Lego bushes simply cannot retain the axles given the duty cycles. -

Hi all, Two years ago my girlfriend's son challenged me to build a 20cm Goldorak (Grendizer), my TV hero from 1978. I first believed it would be impossible, as I remember vividly trying to build a good-looking one with the parts available in the late 70s - fat chance ! So in 2020, I started browsing the Net for Grendizer and Mazinger MOCs, as well as other mechas for inspiration. I loved the models built by Len_d69, samsky76, Marco de Bon, Andrea Chaipella, Kaho82, Moko, but none was capturing the proportions of my hero to my satisfaction. After many, many hours of prototyping with real- and virtual- bricks (thanks MLCad, I love you), I could offer the boy his own Lego Grendizer for his Birthday. One year later, I've discovered how to make renderings with Blender so I can make clean pics of my creations... (it takes so long making real photos) so here's a selection. The figure stands 20cm tall, with a lot of articulations giving a lot of posing value. Here's a little fight to prove the point : Here are some of the baddies (Golgoths in French) he can fight with : ... and here's an ally in the form of his buddy Mazinger (I'll make a post for this one, who is much more famous than Grendizer ;-). You can see more on my Grendizer album ! Enjoy, Alexandre
