    LEGO creates yellow minifigs to prevent race questions. You say LEGO should change it. From my point of view, your thinking is racist. You want to bring race issues into the world without any race. Please, do not stop here. You can ask why girl stuff is more pink than boys. You could ask LEGO to create pink firefighters and black flowers in elven gardens. Oh, really? Yet you cannot even answer a simple problem you have presented: which races would you put into a set with one cop and one robber? You should answer this question and only then you should ask LEGO to acquire more races in non-licensed sets. (Yeah, maybe I am stupid, I just do not get negative nor positive discrimination of black people or Inidians or asiats or others. It seems to me that your questions and ideas are part of the problem. From my point of view, you should feel ashamed.) You are just being racist. Where you see black family, I see some family. People in the world are changing their hairstyle as they like, wear wigs, changes even their body as they like. And, only based on hairstyle, you consider some minifigs as black family? Really? This is problem in your worldview, not mine.

    So the problem is solved. I wrote myself a simple utility. Next I thought maybe someone other would like it, so I made a graphical user interface and windows build. All help is in the linked webpage. Enjoy. The software is tested, I have used it myself, but please be tolerant, I use linux 99.5 % of my time and something can be different in windows. If you are bold to try it, tell me your experience. https://gitlab.com/KaeroDot/applyblorder/

    I hate facebook, made account only because of this list project. So I understand your issue. Ok, I will send him message. After you finish your Buran, let me know so I can add it to the list.
  4. Kaero
    Or you can download his model and improve it :) Or you can poke him yourself. He is active at facebook group Bricks in Space (for link see the list).

    I cannot figure how to use Bricklink with Multiple Wanted lists and Multiple orders. Tried searching google, tried looking for some software, no luck. Imagine I am gathering bricks for two MOCs MOC1, MOC2. MOC1 requires 10 bricks 2x4, black. MOC2 requires 5 bricks 2x4, black. I create two wanted lists (WL1, WL2) in bricklink, select both of them for shopping, and buy 12 bricks from some shop - the shop had limited supply. Now I want to apply order to wanted lists. I apply order to WL1, after this to WL2. Big surprise, both wanted lists show I have buyed all needed bricks, 15 in total, while in real I have got only 12. How do you solve this issue? Possibilities: 1, During applying orders, one can select number of bricks applied to a wanted list manually. This is terrible work for larger number of bricks. 2, One can join two wanted lists together, and just buy and buy till this joined list is completed. But, one can already finished buying bricks for MOC1, and not notice it. Or one have to compare required bricks again and again. Terrible. Also issues arise when another wanted lists are generated. I thought Brickstock software is able to do such a thing. It can subtract two lists of bricks. But it can result in negative numbers of bricks. I have not found better way. Is there some easy way? It seems to me I must have missed something - there is so many people doing number of huge MOCs, someone must have solved it already. Thanks for any help.

    Updates. Now the list contains over 450 space MOCs with instructions! I never expected there will be such amount of models (I would not start compiling this list if I knew it).
  7. Kaero
    As usually, many updates, and good news everyone: third volume of Bricks in space book is online! (And second volume is updated).
  8. Kaero
    Another bunch of updates. There is comparison for A4, Space shuttles, launch umilical towers (5 of them! hi-res picture!), soyuz, and nice picture of Energia family.
  9. Kaero
    So now there are instructions for 3 different builds of N1 rockets. I have added many models and a lot of fixes, additions of links etc. The tables are quite long now, not sure how to do it better.
  10. Kaero
    Thanks! I am watching you ;) I am going to add you to the bottom of my web, but if you upload digital file or instructions somewhere, you will make it into the table itself!
  11. Kaero
    Thanks for the link! Another N1, and I still have to add a 1:110 one from Wolfram Broszies. Not much time for this in last 2 months.
  12. Kaero
    Certainly many builders selected the 1:110 scale. But I have heard from few that usually it is better to make an arbitrary scale to better fit actual size of various lego cylinders. If you will find something that I missed, just let me know, I will add it.
  13. Kaero
    Again, many updates.

    The Aggregat 4, short A4, was the world’s first long-range guided ballistic missile. The V-2 rocket MW 18014 reached an altitude of 176 km, becoming the first man-made object in space. Numerous support and supply vehicles were required to launch the rocket. The model is in scale 1:110 (same as LEGO Saturn V 21309-1) and is a recreation of a V-2 preparation scene according historical photo. The model contains V-2, numerous support and supply vehicles and a base simulating a road. See instructions for descriptions of model parts. Some elements are easy to detach therefore the model is intended for display. Original idea is by Wolfram Broszies, see his wonderfull books: http://www.ametria.org/lego/ Please take a look into pdf instructions for all the details: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-33001/Kaero/a-4v-2-rocket-with-support-and-supply-vehicles/

    A joint development by Mark Balderrama, Adam Wilde, Sebastian Schön, Matthew Hildebrand, Wolfram Broszies, Nico Daams and me resulted in quite nice addition to the Saturn V set: Apollo recovery mission: During the Apollo 8, Apollo 10, and Apollo 11 missions, Helicopter Sikorsky Sea King SH-3D with number 66 was the primary recovery vehicle which hoisted returning astronauts from the spacecraft command modules. The model is based on following historical photo: All details are in the pdf instructions on the rebrickable: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-33162/Kaero/apollo-recovery-mission/

    Improvement of the Apollo landing scene with instructions here: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-33162/Kaero/apollo-recovery-mission/

    Many updates, and things from Bricks In Space Vol. II. Take a look at the books, these are wonderfull!
  18. Kaero
    Actual status: about 148 rockets, 78 payloads, 34 launchpads/other. The last missing large LEGO web is MOCpages, however it seems people do not put instructions there.
  19. Kaero
    List was substantially enlarged (Bricklink almost finished) and improved thanks to the informations of MoppeW40k.
  20. Kaero
    It is working now. I have no idea what happened, maybe some error on the hosting server. I have added many projects from Bricklink. Still many projects on Bricklink are missing.
  21. Kaero
    Page with list was updated. I know I miss some other Launch Umbilical Tower designs, but these eludes me somehow.
  22. Kaero
    Hey, thanks a lot for info! I will fix during next evenings. I will rename saturn, take a better photo, and fix the rovers. I wondered that these two rovers are too similar, but different nick - different row of table. However the main question remain - which nick to use? Muscovitesandwich & smazmat should be renamed to Black-Brick? Is it correct? And thanks for the Delta II with tower, I would like to build it. Thanks, I think I will add them to the table, just for reference. At least a lot of pieces were used in shuttle MOCs.
  23. Kaero
    I tried to create a list of MOCs that are based on real rockets, spacecrafts or probes (or at least designs of planned real rockets, spacecrafts or probes) with instructions, either free or for money. The list was growing and growing and now it is far greater than I expected: https://kaerodot.gitlab.io/lego-rocket-mocs/ Due to the nature of the universe, this list will never be complete and perfect, so please contact me with ideas for improvements and additions. If you are offended and you do not want your work to be included in the list, please contact me also. Tables can be sorted by clicking on the heading. Some statistics: there are instructions for: 97 different rocket and spacesihp MOCs, of this: 5 different MOCs of Spacex falcon 9; 3 Spacex falcon heavy; 6 saturn 1B; 3 Soyuz rockets; 3 V2; additional 52 different MOCs of spaceprobes; additional 26 launchpads, launch complexes, drone ships etc. If you want to build e.g. mercury rocket, you can just select by the pictures.

    I have built this model, it is wonderfull! I would like to thank steph77 and and Ivan Moc for the work on the model and instructions. I built this model as a way to show my kids how a helicopter works. Therefore I modified it a little. I have removed some elements so the motor can be quite easilly removed - when showing functions, I needed to change position of rotor there and back again, slowly, and with motor this was hard to do. I have also made top plates covering the mechanism more easily removable. I had a piece Technic Ball with Grooves (2907) that was too tight and was hardly moving on the axis, therefore the collective control was too hard. I was forced to file it a little to make movement easy. Ivan Moc: could you please upload digitial model, that was used for instructions, to the rebrickable? Thanks.
  25. Kaero
    Why on earth the Control+ motors cannot be controlled by Powered Up controller? Is really lego making two new incompatible electric systems?
