  1. What's the deal with buying "MISB" sets (Mint In Sealed Box?) sets if you're just going to build them? It seems that it would make more sense to buy sets with a banged-up or even no box for building. To me, at least, MISB sets seem like investments: buy now, sell later for a higher price. Just my 2 cents. --Cheers, Robert
  2. Thats when you use 2 of them!
  3. Cool! The wheels for the Lego wheelsets don't line up evenly with bricks though, so it would be harder to adapt it for L-gauge. That's weird that Brickshelf is blocked, its not blocked by our school (Flickr isn't either). .
  4. The problem with some battery boxes is that the holes in the plastic for the positive terminals on the battery (the side with the bump) are not big enough for the bumps on the battery. .
  5. :thumbup: Looks good! .
  6. How about the new EV3 stuff?
  7. Ballast is the gravel under the tracks. .
  8. The overhang is so small, you would hardy notice it, if you did at all. .
  9. And you need both types, I'm guessing? .
  10. Why wont this work with 9v? The tracks are the same size as the PF ones. .
  11. Looks good! (So does the ballast!) .
  12. It appears to be this piece in Dark Red.
  13. You might even consider using 2 M motors, if you can squeeze 'em in.
  14. I would try to not use the PF Train Motor with Large drivers, for you will have little torque and excessively high speed. Try using a PF Medium motor geared to the wheels instead. Just my 2 cents though...
  15. Just another day in Lego Suburbia...
  16. Thats what happens with a bureaucracy...
  17. How does this work? How do you come up with suck cool and interesting ideas? So many questions! .
  18. Is that a double-cabbed steam loco? Woa... .
  19. Only thing that might be a problem is the flextrack. I'd advise replacing it with straight track, if you can. .
  20. Probably, if it is a website. I know there is a BBC cable TV channel, but I've never heard of "lplayer" here in the States. .
  21. Thats true, the engine was a bit weird... but it was easy to MOD it onto its own (longer) car. Sadly, i have since disassembled said train for pieces, so no pics.
  22. Will you show us how the hoppers work?
  23. There always seemed to be a degree of similarity between Minecraft and Legos... I've ridden in the engine you talk about (in Minecraft, obviously ). This is a very nice representation of said loco! :thumbup: Two thumbs up!
  24. What did you use for the side doors? I thought they only came in old grey... .
  25. I happen to like the 4560 (it was my first lego train, so definitely no bias here ) It was very modern and sleek.
