11381 Jaguar E-Type
StudWorks replied to R0Sch's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I know it's not perfect, but RacingBrick's review has me hyped about this set. And in a flood of Icons sets with laughable price tags for this to cost less than the Shelby Cobra with quite a bit more pieces makes it a refreshing outlier. If we "vote with our dollar" and pick this set up, it could send TLG a message. -
Book IV - Prelude 1: Queen Ylspeth's Tower Study
StudWorks replied to Grover's topic in Guilds of Historica
Wow, I absolutely love the Queen Ylspeth minfigure! I don't know if this was her inspiration, but her red hairstyle and clothing reminds instantly made me think of Anna from the Fire Emblem game series (specifically Fire Emblem Awakening). Are all the minifigure parts (like the hair) custom or are they actual LEGO pieces and prints? -
I had JUST seen this truck on a recent VINWiki video! Can't wait for the instructions to release, the genius functional Technic bits in this MOC (that LEGO has long parted ways with) are absolutely beautiful!

Technic General Discussion
StudWorks replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I too want TLG to continue to be profitable as well, but the monstrous $2 billion the group focuses on making in profit each year has had a toll on actual set quality and pricing. While most LEGO consumers aren't interested in MOCs, I disagree about your statement that hardcore Technic fans don't like MOCs anymore. While Speed Champions car MOCs are all the rage on Rebrickable (because they're cheaper), Technic MOCs like alt-builds (like the F1 LM McLaren P1 alt) and Lox Lego's 1:8 scale car MOCs are still hot on the site. -
Technic General Discussion
StudWorks replied to Jim's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I one million percent agree. The biggest plus is that if LEGO consolidates its Technic cars to a theme like Racers, they wouldn't have to rely on using such minimal system brick usage (which has caused many inaccuracies in Technic cars). But it's very unlikely LEGO would actually do this, insert obligatory fan rants about cutthroat-capitalist LEGO. -
Problem with Game Boy lenticular screen?
StudWorks replied to StudWorks's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Yeah that's what I was thinking. I'll send some sort of compliant to customer service anyways. -
Does anybody else have this issue where the "Nintendo" lenticular screen, when centered, clones itself to the top? I couldn't find people online who have the same issue, so is this something I should contact customer service about? Also, is the "SOUND" print misaligned on your Game Boy too? Unlike the lenticular screen, I know the majority of people who purchased this set have this issue with the print so I'm fine with it.

This is INCREDIBLE! The accuracy to real car is absolutely spot-on, easily one of the best Technic MOCs I've seen in a while and I'm excited for more from you to come. While you do have instructions available on boosty, I'd highly recommend also posting them to Rebrickable as they have a huge user base and I know for sure it'll be a hit on there.

Awesome! Would be so cool if you made this into Richard Hammond's "Lochdown" car.
