As a matter of fact, i did. He moved to rebrickable: https://rebrickable.com/users/BrickBuildCustoms/mocs/

20230910_205920 In the Dream World of Lego Dreamzzz, Mrs. Castillo is best known for her walking half turtle, half food truck that sells dream magic and fantastic gadgets to fend of nightmares. But in the waking world, this cheerful old lady needs another profession to make ends meet. She runs a food truck and sells tacos, sandwiches, quesadillas and other tasty treats from her trusty old food truck that´s known to all the local kids. Mrs. Castillo might not be much in a hurry, but she can put the pedal to the metal when a food emergency calls. So don´t be fooled by her turtle themed van. 20230910_205846 20230910_210012 20230910_210433 20230910_210609 The rest of the album I really liked the overall design and color of set 71456, but wasn´t a big fan of the van´s proportions. so i turned it into a neat little VW Van inspired car. Hope you like it, feel free to comment.

Just wondering, was the part Kick Scooter Body Item No: 36273 ever incorporated into the ldd custom updates? Can´t seem to find it.

They both have their time to shine. For Big dragons (like Firtbourne or Griefbringer) brickbuild heads make more sense and also allow for more small details and features. Molded heads are neat for smaller dragons that might also have part limitations and less room for an elaborate neck construction. For example the head pieces from the two small CORE dragons. What is a beard like structure on the lower jaw of one dragon, can be a rhino like horn for the other one. IF they would decide to improve Ninjago dragons, i wouldn´t mind having wings like on the old Smaug dragon again that can fold.

Man, i was so hoping to have the Hospital Wing going back to the pre 2021 style, but yet here we are. A thing i really hate on these is the usage of the 8x8 plate with grid instead of a standart 8x8 plate. What´s up with that?

Are there any vehicles that kinda stand out (except for the schoolbus)?

Man, that stuf get´s more complicated everytime.Someone tech savy enough should do an installer that basically plops all Update Files where they belong to.

The last two episodes were great. As usual, the animation was really a treat for the eyes. Despite my age (almost 40) i still enjoy cartoons, and the Monkie Kid series is no exception, especially because it gives some context for the released sets. The Macaque episode was very enjoyable despite Macaque being a jerk, and dang, Sandy can be really scary if he wants too. Maybe Huntsman will turn for the better, afterall, he

Speaking of Tang, is he just in one set or am i blind? The leaked Bone Demon minifig looks awesome and definitely matches her creepy personality in the show. Related to her, we might get another big "Mech" set in the future since she´s currently collecting stuff to summon some sort of armor in the show. About the availability of the Monkie Kid sets, are they only available in other countries just online or can you get them in your local Lego Stores too? Appearantly the Lego Store next to me (i live in Germany near Frankfurt) don´t have the MK sets in store. I´ll have to order them online.

Couldn't really make out much from the fuzzy pics. Can someone fill me in on what the "Infiniy Saga" is supposed to be? Something like Ninjago Legacy where sets get remade but with visual changes and improvements? Because I think I saw that weird Shield complex building and it seem to look like the set from a few years ago...a glorified Lego City garage with a tiny helicopter, a car and a bunch of rapid fire stud shooters.

The new wave looks great, the one set i don´t really like is Jay´s Submarine Car thingy. That looks just weird. Do the sets contain the Scuba Gear AND hairpiece of the minifigs that come with the sets or do some sets have Ninjas with hairpiece and some with scuba gear. Also, has someone checked which sets one needs to buy to have all figures with as few doubles as possible? And what the heck are those weird boxy things that are in the Minifig Lineup in the Hydro Bounty?

Bummer, because it´s quite an awesome piece

Thanks man. Yeah, when these new energy/effect blast pieces (and their various relatives) first arrived in the world of Lego i felt they were too gimmicky and kinda reminded me of action figure accesoires. But when used right, they really can bring a minifigure or brick build creation to life.

Yikes, the one in the middle left is nightmare stuff. Try some of the Hidden Side eyes :D

Recently bought the set 76173 (Spider Man and Ghost Rider vs. Carnage) and when looking that that odd looking muscle car on the box i thought "That could have been done better". So i dumped the instructions and designed my own Hell Charger. 20210324_120403 20210324_120432 20210324_120535 20210324_120611 20210324_120714 20210324_120920 There are also a few more images in this album: You´re guilty! This is also the debut of my new phone being used as a camera. The images might not be the best, but it will do for now. Like and comment if you want, i hope you enjoy my creation.

A while ago i bought the Whomping Willow set as an effort to complete my Hogwarts Collection. A lot can be done better and more detailed on this set, but for now i decided to just give the car a little rework. I know the car was designed by Lego for durability and playability but i really didn´t like that odd roof. So i decided to take matters (and bricks) into my own hands and redesign the car: 20210228_172918 20210228_172819 20210228_172853 As you can see, i incorporated a lot of slightly mismatching colors into the car since the one in the movie isn´t exactly brand new...to describe it politely. The car has dings, dents, and spotty paint. I also tried to detail the interior a bit. It still might not fit 4 minifigs, but at least 2 can be seated and some luggage can be put behind the seats...and yes, the back rests can be adjusted. 20210228_163455 As you know, the car gets quite a beating from the Whomping Willow after it crashes into the tree, so i decided to "demolish" it. 20210228_163132 20210228_163005 20210228_162937 I hope you guys like my version. Comments are apprechiated.

Yeah, that "place" seems to get worse and worse. I think there´s a dire need for a moderated and controlled place for posting leaks that also ONLY contain leaks, not 10% leaks and 90% unrelated and wrongfully tagged. Idk, maybe a Discord, or Reddit or Facebook page. But i feel like i´m straying away from the actual topic too much. The upcoming season sure looks promising.

Inspired by the legendary so-called "Kaneda Bike" i designed one for the red Ninja, Kai. This fire red bike has a sweet flame job that makes it look even hotter and faster. So badguys of Ninjago, watch out if you see a red blur coming up in the rear view mirror....because it´s getting hot! Hope you guys like this little build and the reference. 1 2 7 You can see a few more and bigger images here follow me, i´m a link

Both look alsolutely stunning and have visually very different personalities. The first and bulkier one looks more like some sort of knight. No need to hide and ready to attack in open combat. The second mech has a rather slim build physique that kinda looks like it´s meant to ambush and assasinate. Fast strikes and gone before the enemy even notices what happened. Very impressive builds, only that color is kinda odd. Is it that spring green and the camera just makes it look more mint colored or are they modified pieces?

Since you guys are Lego animal experts, i wonder what´s the biggest and smallest molded Lego animal is. I probably would nominate these two: That hermit crab is so darn cute. Hope it will come in more colors as well. Only thing i´m not too happy about is the pin on its back, a stud would have been better i guess so you could change for a short snail shell or a longer conch shell. Also, the hermit crab might not be too far off in scale compared to a minifigure. Those guys can get big, especially the palm thief.

"Who´s that Pokemon? Iiiit´s Spacedude!" weird voice: "Spacedude Spacedude"

A bit of context would help, what are your computer specs and what OS are you using?

Anyone knows what rendering tool i can use to render LDD files that contain the new and updated parts? Tried the renderering tool from Stud.io but Stud.io replaces many of the new parts with a plain questionmark box (which it also hilariously renders. Also tried PovRay to LDD converter so i can render it with PovRay but the converter chokes on some of the new parts as well (no wonder as it seems it was last updated 2016). anything else i can use, maybe Bluerender or BUSUFL by bubible? Also i can´t make a parts list with LDD, it just crashes to desktop without a warning...just poof. Probably a known sideeffect of the new parts library. Any help would be apprechiated.

Guess there is a downside to both versions. I asume keeping armless Angrybirds,Angry Birds arms AND complete Angry Birds as assemblies is too much of a hassle, right? Is there maybe a way to rework on how the parts in that category are placed and shown? Haven´t looked at it closely but i always have a feeling that the creature parts are kinda mixed and thrown in however the LDD developers pleased. Would be much better if all wings (feathered and dragon/bat wings) are sorted next to each other, then maybe legs,arms, dragon heads, other critter heads and so on. BTW, i have a quick question as well. I finally got the new parts installation to work (honestly, the instructions are a bit missleading...) and i was so exited to finally use 1x1 brackets and all those newer parts (i was literally like "ohhhh" and "ahhhh" and so exited to use the new parts. I usually use Stud.io for the sole purpose of adding recent parts in a digital MOC and then render it with Stud.io. Is there a rendering tool i can use that will read and render the new parts in an ldd MOC as well?

Thanks, but sadly the download process gives me a "Download failed" message. :( Edit: Never mind silly old me. Why searching far away when the things you need are right at your doorstep...or in this case right here in this forum: Edit2: Ah fudge, i just can´t get it to work. The new parts aren´t appearing for me when i tried to install them.Guess no cool new parts for me then :( An installer exe would probably make things a lot easy for people like me who aren´t exactly wizards... No to carefully read everything again so i won´t botch my LDD again.....oh boy
