Anything goes? Not really but remins me quite a bit of that musical performance in Club Obi Wan. That reminds me of that book cover I really like, I believe it's from the Modular Bookshop, Moby Brick novel: Completely forgot, the torso that's used for Obadiah Stane (earlier for those two Disney characters I forgot names for) is really something to consider using for Adventurers:

Tried it in an interesting way, though it doesn't open in the site, it opens the picture in new tab. Copy the image here, then highlight it and in the ''link'' section add its address.

What site are you trying to insert them from?

You mean so the picture opens the site it came from? Well, I just right clicked on the picture and copied image address (or something along the lines) and then pasted the link in here, it automatically sets it as a picture.

Indeed. I always have thought that concept of giving someone to keep your money so they can take a little bit from it every month as a fee for keeping it is rather daft. We can't do much to change it, though.

Thanks! I am close to getting back on track. And keep doing what you do, I really enjoy this MOC of yours.

I don't see how it could be risky, this way I don't have to pay any fees. Perhaps I'm a bit uneducated on that subject or maybe even old-fashioned but I prefer shopping on BL the way that's best for me. This subject is definitely off-topic from my original question, like @Clone OPatra said, it has got nothing to do with this thread.

Yer welcome! At the moment I only have one 6x12 rubber raft in dark bluish grey so that's that. I would say that I much prefer rowboat over these rubber rafts - it has more space and can be usable for both modern and historic settings. Still, rubber rafts are good, if anything then you can use a yellow one to recreate that one scene from Temple of Doom.

I believe there was an older version for this boat in colours like dark bluish grey, but then again, that one couldn't fit the big crate (I'm not really sure if they both are similar in size).

An hourglass!? In Lego!? How come I didn't know it even exists? Now that I know it exists, why didn't they include it in the Astronomy Tower instead of that sticker on 1x2x2 brick? Anyway, I really like the Ice Fisherman figure from CMF Series 5, I think his outfit could be used for Johnny and his band, whenever they might be somewhere cold (at least would look more realistic than their Mount Everest clothes ): Once the snow comes around in my region, I might take a few pictures with Johnny and Doc in these outfits outside.

Well I'm rather unlucky because where I live, they closed the last physical Lego shop I think in 2016 or 2017. So I'm happy to have started buying individual bricks from BL, sure , the website isn't perfect but it's the best place where to buy bricks. If I wouldn't be using BL, then I would've never been able to do so many big projects I had. I've never used Amazon, besides, it's with Dollars (that would mean I have to always crack my head to find out how much that price will be in Euros), there is, of course a German Amazon but I'm not such a big fan of buying there, I find Amazon bit less reliable. Also, I don't have a PayPal account, but maybe I should get one.

Just copy the links to images here and they should pop up automatically like so:

A good version of 4+ model! This is really how the original ship should've looked like, it's definitely not bad for a first MOC on here, good job! Though I feel this post would really benefit from larger images, like the ones in the Imgur folder.

Pretty much ideology of the whole life. The latest project I've been working on is stuck in one place for the past 2 months due to some unexpected things in my life.

Then I'm lucky to be only a BrickLink buyer.

Love that entrance, a while back I was attempting to do a digital design for a local church in Riga and honestly, that front door portal that you have made looks so much better than what I came up with. Good job so far!

Well, we can't possibly sell on Eurobricks (unless we were to count Sell & Trade forum) but I'm not saying that Lego is more popular in Netherlands than other countries, I'm just saying that there is a whole lot of fans on internet coming from this country. There's a lot of active fans in Lego forums from UK. Sure, we can count stores from China and Japan but there's not that many to go on with. Now, I'm not an expert regarding Lego popularity specifically in these two countries, but from what I've heard, apparently knock-off brands are more popular in China, again, I'm not sure whether this information is 100% true so feel free to correct me on that subject. My point is (though earlier I said that I'm not making any points) that I'm surprised by the sheer amount of Lego stores on BL and users on EB from Netherlands, so that was a question that I was looking for an answer. I find BrickLink to be very reliable in this regard, it's an official worldwide Lego store owned by The Lego Group and it's statistics seem reliable to me. If you have more reliable sources, I would be pleased if you were to present them to me.

I'm lucky that all my orders so far have arrived to my doorstep. I found PostNL to be a reliable delivery service (far more better than DHL, also less expensive), though sometimes it may take a bit longer for them to send some orders.

There are plenty options for building such towns, you could use only modern pieces or dive more into classic stuff. Some pieces that might help: Big Ugly Rock Piece (BURP) 32x32 tan baseplate (There are multiple raised baseplates you can use, but I suggest you explore them.) 1x4 brick with log profile (Also paired with 1x2 of the same type.) 2x6x6 log wall panel 6x8 slope (Very good for roofs.) 2x2x4 bush These are just starters so there are couple more pieces, hope this helps.

Might as well join in this jolly good fun. Wouldn't hurt to play another game by Bob, would it? Count me in!

Ah, but of course! How come I didn't think of it? It is quite logical to think of Netherlands when a word trade comes around. So could this reason be an explanation to this mysterious popularity of Lego among Dutch people?

Pretty much most of the people in Latvia grew out of it as time goes by. Well, I believe we didn't have any Lego till at least 1991 so it's definitely hard to find some classic sets for sale in my country because even when they did come out, most of the people couldn't afford them. In comparison, Netherlands sounds like a paradise.

Sounds like a fun childhood.

Hello everyone, (Now, I'm not sure how anyone may find this offensive but if someone does, understand that I'm just curious, I'm not saying that things should change.) Anyway, I have been browsing BrickLink for some classic parts and can't help but notice that there are so many stores from Netherlands that sell such parts (or any parts for that matter), also, I've noticed that a lot of members on here are from Netherlands (that's not a bad thing). I've been wondering, how come there is so much interest in Lego specifically from Netherlands? Was the country main place to sell all Lego sets back in the day? If for that, then what about Denmark (after all, Lego originates from there)? It's just a thought that was racing through my mind. Again, I don't mean to offend anyone and am not making any point, nor am I saying that there should be less, it's just a sheer curiousity. Jack Sassy (After checking I noticed that Netherlands has 933 stores on BL, one of the highest amount of stores per country.)

Blast it, you beat me to it! But seriously, really an amazing build, I like the new looks they all have (especially Henry Jones Sr.) and lighting is done the way it looks even better. An amazing job!
