WesternOutlaw Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 (edited) Continuing my retro Fantasy Island playset, I had to build a vehicle to transport fantasy-seekers around the island. Recognize the vehicle? Maybe not, but this is built entirely out of pieces from the vintage fire engine contained in the 10184 Town Plan (with the addition of six red tiles, white rims, and a white 1x2 grill for added accent color). NOTE: Mr. Roarke, seaplane, and island foliage not included Edited May 29, 2011 by Rufus Indexed Quote
lightningtiger Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 Simple yet AWESOME 'The Brickster'.......'The plane....the plane !' Great looking car just like...... But wait a minute....your's is a sedan and the one in the photo is a wagon......ah, but it's Lego Fantasy Island.....anything is possible ! And as I like to say now.......Brick On 'The Brickster' !

XimenaPaulina Posted January 16, 2011 Posted January 16, 2011 I was wondering why I didn't see the car in your first FI MOC, I guess you made it now to sort of 'complete' the whole thing. Again, very well done on this car - accurate color scheme and it really has the classic feel into it. Quote
WesternOutlaw Posted January 17, 2011 Author Posted January 17, 2011 Thanks fellas - I had to modify slightly with limited pieces. In any case, here's a new image of the vehicle in front of the Island Bungalow: Quote
lightningtiger Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Again the car is still cool, but the house is totally AWESOME ! I wonder if this idea would make a great contest.....classic tv shows in Lego eh ? Brick On 'The Brickster' ! Quote
buddy Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Great car, it looks like the real thing. Very well done. ~buddy~ Quote
Praiter Yed Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Very retro, I particularly like that you used vintage bricks to keep the authentic 70's feel. Do you have any more retro builds in mind... The Beachcombers, Hawaii Five-O, The Love Boat... ? Quote
WhiteFang Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Although I don't know much about Fantasy Island, but I do like the design of the car very much. Does reminds me of Classic Town. As usual, your photo editing skills have made this entire presentation looks much lively. Quote
WesternOutlaw Posted January 17, 2011 Author Posted January 17, 2011 Thanks for the feedback guys. I wonder if this idea would make a great contest.....classic tv shows in Lego eh ? That's not a bad idea - Retro Television Show Contest Do you have any more retro builds in mind... The Beachcombers, Hawaii Five-O, The Love Boat... ? Love Boat was certainly a classic - loved the soundtrack. Unfortunately, doesn't lend itself to too many creations. I'm having Mystery Ship flashbacks. Does reminds me of Classic Town. Everything I build seems to capture the Classic Town look. I'm beginning to feel "Classic". Quote
Lasse D Posted January 25, 2011 Posted January 25, 2011 Nice little car, Brickster. But I challenge you! (insert evil laughter) Can you make the top of the grille flush with the tiles on the hood, so it has a completely flat surface? Quote
