now you know Effe, you're legally required to make a crawler with the Porsche body... (preferably with the new xerion tires...)

was SUPER bored so ALL HAIL KITTEH

WOW that scale was NOT what I was expecting! Still looks great though! also your cat has the derpiest face! lel so cute

I don't know the real bike, but I have a feeling that rear wheel was too perfect for this... just got a feeling... aaaaaaaand just looked it and feel kinda dumb

I agree we see alot of these, but personally they're one of my favorite "genres". They are so simple in essence, but leave so much room for creativity and can generally be a kind of beautiful! This is no exception! also btw don't be so quick to assume my grandma went straight to trophy trucks

WOW! For a first, this is amazing! If I were you I would skip the subtractor, other than the experience gained from building them they don't help much. the crane idea sounds cool, but if you want to stay simple, just adding more bodywork is always the way I go. either way great job, and welcome aboard!

ever heard of bricklink? it's quite usefull

nvm how was this convention? were you able to build some more "bodywork" before the kids saw it? btw I'll be honest I just took 5 minutes to sit and look at this thing, and I'm only now truly realizing how ingenious this is

what motors did it use for drive? it had quite impressive speed, I'm really curious!

wow, looks awesome! someone with the porsche should integrate it! I might build it for fun as well...

Awesome! I love how you used the old silver 1x2x.5 pieces! I have a couple and never know what to do with them...

If you can afford, Definetely 8475! I've had my eye on one for about 3 years now, and haven't truely found a deal, but if you have the money, it's worth it.

This is really great! I know the purists won't like it, but it's nice to see someone using lego as a platform for other things! Very creative! Also thanks for taking one for the team to prove the whole "lego can't handle brushless" argument!

Yes quite, and now it's time for it to die.

Ugh, need to take a break from all the porsche stuff, it's getting tiring. It would be nice to have the top topic not be porsche related for literally ANY amount of time. It seems every time I refresh my browser, I have 10s of notifications about the Porsche. Jim would you consider merging the review and speculation topics, or no? Having both is kind of suffocating me. Typo

Kind of bummed about the calipers, they could have easily made them curved with some other pieces like these Omg sorry the pics are so big didn't realise that sorry!

Huh! Imo the arch fits the unimog tire better than the porsche one...

...

I think you have the right idea though, maybe a system of machines that all build different pieces of eachother, and some that assemble them. I don't think it's a one man, er, robot job. Maybe like this it's possible. But to have a single machine able to make itself, It would become infinitely complicated, in order to make itself it would need precise tools, and to make those precise tools, it would need even more precise tools, and to make those etc etc etc, like roppie11 said Also I changed my mind can I have my legs back I kind of underestimated how much I need them

Well not nescesarily, if you made some machine that had kind of extendable legs, maybe you could make a machine that could stand up tall and build a machine down against the ground, that could then drive out from under it when finished, and stand up to build another? Like just have a machine that is just able to stand barely around itself in fully compacted form, instead of building inside itself. It would be more complicated, and still quite large, but it would be possible... In theory at least... Wait no nvm I just understood what you said yeah it's impossible

Ah, yes that's what I meant.

Cool! Could you try any other eye designs, or did you? Maybe something more flat to the sides? Just wondering, the current ones stick out alot...

No I don't mean interchangable, but they just are the same relative size as individual wholes

Looks great! Does the head turn with the front legs?

Well it's definetely possible, but it would have to be huge, and even bigger if it's to do anything usefull alongside reproducing... Also I made up my mind here ya go Also can we please not make skynet/ultron
