  1. 'That's @JeanGreyForever, he fights for the Users!' I hope we gets actual sets for TRON: Ares, but I temper that hope with the fact the TRON: Legacy set was only an Ideas product. The original TRON sets would be a dream come true, however - Light cycles, Light tanks, Flynn's Recognizer and the end MCP battle with giant Sark would be awesome to get in brick form! Sark's cruiser would also be great at microscale or even midi scale, like the SW ships we've been getting recently, and the Flynn Arcade would make a great modular building, with the hidden laser room as a GWP. (I think the solar-sailor might be a bit of a stretch though, because gravity is a thing, sadly.) END OF LINE
  2. All versions of the Japanese bullet train have wheels. You're thinking of a Maglev / monorail.
  3. I wonder if Boswer's train is track compatible? If it is, I hope something of it would be salvageable to train fans / isn't too outlandish. If it's not track compatible, it could be a UCS Hogwarts Express-type situation... and we all know how well that worked, don't we? *cough* heavy discounts soon after release, not long overall shelf life *cough*
  4. No problem! It seems a lot of leakers have gone away, honestly. I guess LEGO has really tightened their grip on this type of info which is not a bad thing (except for us fans!), as it keep competitors from beating them to market with similar stuff / straight-up copycats.
  5. Wdym means "What do you mean"
  6. The car is, IMO, the star of this thread. The plane isn't bad, I just like old cars more! But seriously, great work!
  7. According to Brickset, it hasn't been officially retired, but here in the US it is anyway. I guess it depends on your country.
  8. You're right! I've tagged @Vilhelm22 so he can fix it.
  9. I've seen pictures, and have one thing to say: Meh. Not impressed.
  10. Damn. Wish I'd thought of the coat of arms six years ago! As I don't do stickers, and I don't think I can take it apart easily, this idea is nearly impossible to do. (sadly) Thanks for compliments and suggestions though!
  11. This house was digitally built in 2018, really built in 2019, then languished in a WIP state for several years before being finished last month. Enjoy the pictures - this model has been a long rough ride since the beginning, but it was worth it! I was inspired to create this model from the 2018 Jurassic World set 75930, Indoraptor Rampage at Lockwood Estate, with some design cues from set 10228, Haunted House. The dollhouse-style model was built from the set pictures, with the play features removed and opening rear sections added to match the front half. The house folds apart, doll house style, with the rear section opening in quarters up to 90 degrees. (Technic pins hold the model shut for transport and ease of handling) The modular building compatible base is able to be removed from the building to facilitate access to the inside details. The rear of the mansion features a back door (perfect for escapes when the locals get feisty about the scientist playing god again!) and the chimney flue. Moving inside, The bottom floor features the living room and dining rooms, while the second floor is the bedroom, study and pipe organ rooms. The third floor features the laboratory for the study of time travel. The rear door to the outside is in the right rear section, while the safe containing the house's title and family paper work is directly above on the second level. This area also has stairs from first to second floors and what appears to be Frankenstein's monster on the third floor's operating table! The left rear quarter features the fireplace and telephone on the first floor and a bed for the second floor's master bedroom. The stairs to the third floor are also on this side. It seems the time stone from the Marvel Universe is also here... I wonder what the Doctor plans on doing with it? I built the roadster model by heavily stretching set 40532 - Vintage Taxi by about seven studs. This allowed for me to add in mechanical details. I added a covered spare tire at the rear of the car, and blacked out the back windscreen to give the impression of a fabric convertible top. As an added bonus, the car still seats two figures with room in the trunk for luggage. (Any and all resemblance in the mad doctor to moderators, living, dead, or otherwise, is totally coincidental. It is totally not @Professor Thaum in his younger years. ) The rear of the MOC. Inside view of the car, with seating for two and room for baggage. ...and that's all I've got. Thoughts, comments, complaints and suggestions welcome!
  12. Yeah, I don't think that will work. You'll just end up with parts all over your floor, even if you majorly reinforced it. Why would you want to do this anyway?
  13. I have that wreath already, as a relative 3D printed one for me. I'm pretty sure the flowers exist already too, and possibly the red / green big figs as well. All you need is a 3D printer!
  14. It's brilliant, and I love it! Now you just need to build Racer X's car, the Shooting Star!
  15. ...and there goes my interest in the set. I had all sorts of modifications planned, but I can't do them now.
  16. Unless I'm mistaken, I think there has been a miscommunication / translation error somewhere: I said the newest one was our first enclosed one SINCE 2010. 2001 was the first ever (as you stated), 2004 came in the middle between the two. It has been 23 years since 2001, but 14 years since the last enclosed Hagrid's hut. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't being misunderstood.
  17. To be fair, this is our first enclosed hut since 2010 - over 14 years ago! I can see how he'd be excited.
  18. That's a VERY nice police car!
  19. His full name is Oswald. Oz is a nickname.
  20. Different? Yes, absolutely, 100%. Great? That is another matter altogether... Basically: Sometimes different does not equal good! Example: Tesla Cybertrucks are VASTLY different to anything else on the market. And they suck... Badly. (Who has seen stainless steel rust anywhere besides on this type of truck?) But that's getting off topic, and I suggest we stay on the topic at hand. (my example notwithstanding)
  21. How are things in Tomorrow Land? Is it a bright shining utopia, or mad max style post-apocalypse? (sorry for the joke post, but I couldn't resist, and we have nothing to talk about, so...)
  22. Are you okay / sure you're not having a stroke? Are you smelling burning toast? Should we notify your next of kin to let them know what hospital to go to? ...or have you simply had too much to drink?
  23. Not likely. Rainbow ninjas in vehicles is a niche mostly covered by Ninjago, which isn't going anywhere.
