Eurobricks Event 2023 Billund sign up-topic
Holodoc replied to Holodoc's topic in LEGO Events and User Groups
Move over to this topic. -
Dear eventees, please share in this topic where you want to stay. Like the years before 2020 we have group accomodations in Legoland village or Lalandia (next to the village). Of course you can also stay on your own and many opportunities are open for that (hotels, camping site, etc.), but then you have to see yourself. Information in short: Legoland village - Wild West cabin for 5 persons including breakfast (for unknown reason no booking possible right now via the official website ) EDIT: Found information via hotels.com: 1196€ for 4 days -> 240€ p.p.€ Lalandia - Classic plus house for 8 persons NOT including breakfast, so the people staying there will either have to take care of breakfast themselves or join the group in LLVillage. Included IS entry to Aquadome and the houses have a Jacuzzi and Sauna available. It will cost 1110€ for 5 nights from Tuesday on - which is cheaper than booking from Wednesday on (1524€), resulting in 140€ p.p.! We have good memories in having a so called room representative who will take care of the booking for all members with him/her. Please leave a note if you would like to take over the job. Important note: We have stayed in LLVillage for many times now, Lalandia will be a completely new experience. Let's see how it turns out... UPDATE who wants to stay where (will be updated as sson as the eventees raised their voices: Lalandia Classic Skalldyr (RR) &Sophie, Holodoc, MstrOfPppts, Redhead, Lt. de Martinet, Ryushi, Aredhel Building another Lalandia house group? Peppy, snefroe Staying on their own: Jim&Kitty (Camper) Cwetqo (+2) Cecilie&Ace elleana LasseD (staying at home I guess?) doesn't need accomodation (because of staying awake all night??? ) soccerkid6 haven't said anything yet JopieK definite maybe: LegoFjotten

Right. (at least that was the way to go the last times ) -
Finally! After 4 years - yes, it's really FOUR years !!! - we are definitely planning another Eurobricks event! It will be held in the heart of the LEGO enthusiasm, in Billund, Denmark. From Wednesday, 26th of April until Sunday, 30th of April. Those who have already attended to one of our events know what I'm writing about - those who don't have an idea what this is all about, might want to check the last events topics first. More information can be found in this topic where we planned the event 2020 - which was postponed (for the known reasons ) until now. So if you are willing to be part of this fun and entertaining event, please reply here. Information about the program will follow later - we still have room for YOUR thoughts and ideas! Set are the obvious attractions like Legoland and LEGO House. And I have a feeling that some competitions will be held as well... UPDATE (who's joinnig): Skalldyr (+1?), Holodoc, MstrOfPppts, Redhead, Lt. de Martinet, Ryushi, Peppy, Aredhel, Jim&Kitty, LasseD, Cwetqo, JopieK, snefroe, Cecilie&Ace, soccerkid6, elleana, Rolli! definite maybe: LegoFjotten

The part in the back should be 32187 Technic Driving Ring Extension Put a bar 4L an maybe a 1x1 round brick inside part 32187 and : Voilá! In front of that could be any of these 2x2 round bricks (I believe).
-
As far as I would second this opinion, I am not seeing many replies tooting the same horn. So I think we leave it as that. You can still open up a new topic for spotted new colours from parts of minifigs.

[WIP] Lego monorails. [Custom Rail Systems (CRS)]
Holodoc replied to Trekkie99's topic in LEGO Train Tech
Funny! I have seen this photo somewhere else on the internet and instantly thought: This is the CRS! Hooray for building such a nice display with this system! -
I have to second a lot of comments already posted: This is absolutely stunning Ciamoslav!! I have been inside the U2540 in Wilhelmshaven and your level of detail is really spot on. (Even when your MOC is representing an older version of U-Boats). I would love to see this IRL. Just to look at all the features you have implemented. I guess you could watch it a couple of hours and still see hidden details you have not yet realized. Thank you so much for working on it 4+ years - it really has payed off!
-
Wonderful train, I love those small shunter engines! What wonderful things can be done in 8-wide trains! I love the roller skates you used for handle on the door. EDIT: I just checked the original topic. It's from Asper. Would you mind and tell somthing about the extra wires and battery you used? And maybe point out what you made differently from Asper?

LEGO Collectable Minifigures Future Series Rumours
Holodoc replied to r4-g9's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Well - I couldn't be more disappointed. There is really NO figure I want. Like Alegrispa already pointed out: THIS is the 90th anniversary series??? They should call it the X-mas series, I even count 6 figures with connection to Christmas (turkey, elf, reindeer, nutcracker, snowman, sugar fairy). While there is nothing wrong with that, it's still not my cup of tea. -
[WIP] Lego monorails. [Custom Rail Systems (CRS)]
Holodoc replied to Trekkie99's topic in LEGO Train Tech
Absolutely seconded! Can you show some more details on how you connect the 12V rails with the PF (I guess) motor? We see the old sleeper contacts (above) but from that point on I have no idea how you do it? -
[MOC] [MOD] HUMMER H1 - 10265 b-model
Holodoc replied to Marcin Majkowski's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Very well done, Marcin! You captured the essence of what the Hummer ist. As you already pointed out yourself it's instantly recongniseable - and that is what counts when building a car - well - out of a car! And you did digital work and even instructions as well. Thumbs up for this extra. Did you start building digitally and then build the real thing or was it vice versa? -
That clearly indicates where the story is heading to... Fishy from the beginning. It just strengthens my point of view in not investing in those parts/figures at all.
-
That's exactly how I look at it! I started collecting monochrome figs and now/some time ago someone found out how to make a fortune of the fact that these parts sell like sh** and some people are willing to pay absurd sums? Somehow someone wants to make us believe or triggers the (childish) collectors button in us that we have to collect everything that comes out of original LEGO production sites. You can all do what you want, but for me I'm not going to support the abuse of original LEGO material just to make some extra bucks. Q-parts by the way have never been produced for a second hand market! The keyword is the reason parts have been made!

[WIP] Lego monorails. [Custom Rail Systems (CRS)]
Holodoc replied to Trekkie99's topic in LEGO Train Tech
Supported of course - now at 2262 supporters. Though it doesn't seem to be able to run curves properly. -
Nice review! What I would like to see is a) the train 2x, like suggested on the box, to show a 'proper' train with 2 ends. b) the train on straight (because there are no curves in that size...) tracks. (and maybe some green/stones underneath the tracks) EDIT: I see Darkdragon mentioned the black narrow gauge tracks - I believe that would work, too!
-
The are also sold in Europe only and partially in large quantities. My bet: They have been available in the "Fabrik" in Legoland Germany. You can buy stuff by the weight there.
-
Okay I'll specify my question: Are these new body elements part of a set? Or are these - just like the transparent figs - super dooper rare parts from where ever and nobody knows exactly? I wrote it once before: In that case I'll easily pass, as I won't pay extraordinary prices just to have a collection more or less 'complete'.
-
Where exactly? What about the dark turquise and bright light yellow head?
-
So - where are the new heads (BLY/Coral)actually from?

[WIP] Lego monorails. [Custom Rail Systems (CRS)]
Holodoc replied to Trekkie99's topic in LEGO Train Tech
I assume it can go through curves as well, right! Thank you for sharing - even with a look inside! -
Okay, checked the page - and they are curious about the part either! So if THEY don't know - who should?
-
Mmmh - I checked every single transparent blue LEGO piece at BL, but didn't find anything even close to that part. The photo is from NewE. Do you know when it was shown there?
-
Hopefully this is going to work now.
