  1. I just finished building this set this weekend. I have to say….I’m impressed by the functions it includes for all three objects (Earth, Moon, and Sun). Earth and Sun rotates while Moon doesn’t. However, I love that Earth and Moon can orbit Sun neatly. I don’t agree with people who think that exposed gears are “messy” or “ugly”. I feel that they are more fun to watch gears move while turning the lever. I don’t eed to cover those expsoed gears with something - it’s really cool to see gears moving - both slowly and Gastly. Also, those gears remind me of Astronomy Tower from Harry Potter movies - you know, there are some gears. I love that Northenr Hemisphere being tiled toward the sun while souther Hemisphere away from it (summer) and Southrern Hemisphere toward sun while Northern Hemisphere away (winter). It’s quite realistic and easy to explain to people. I could get it why Moon “never” rotates while orbiting Earth becuase we never saw the dark side of Moon. This project is out fo the world (intended pun)! EDIT: I forgot to mention - I am a bit disappointed that stickers are included but Earth pieces are printed. I wonder if the moon phrase should be printed… I month labels are stickers becuase of different languages?
  2. Exactly, I only collect animals (fantasy, extant, sci-fi, and prehistoric). I am not very good at MOCing and I try to limit myself from buying bunch of sets as there is not much space avaaible. The builds / vehicles /minifugres in the two new JW sets don’t interest me, to be honest.
  3. I’m sure someone (or I) already mentioend that before - we would love to see Pokemon, Studio Ghibli, any anime from Japan, such as Yu-Gi-Oh, One Piece, Sailor Moon, etc. But there is one thing I don’t think someone already mentioned - I would to see Digimon!
  4. While Pharrell William spaceship is not yet to be reveled, I’m very curious to ask you. Are you satisfied with “Year of Space” sets, such as CMF, City, Technic, Creator, Friends, etc? Or you still want more Space sets from Lego? For men, I’m satisfied with Space City and CMF. I’m building my first-ever Technic “Planet Earth and Orbit Moon”.
  5. Salzar’s*, not Godric.. :) Can’t wait!!
  6. Yup, we will see about CMF. Now the island Chronciles just mentioend “aliens”….I would love to see some rock monsters from Rock Raiders & Power Miners come in City, lol.
  7. Those dinosaurs on eBay are cheaper than the whole sets. Plus what would you do with the rest of pieces and if you only want dinosaurs in them and buy them? Eh, no thanks - I’m not interred in vehicles, builds or minifigures. Yeah it takes a while before BrickLick finally upload new parts into its system. PAB is not an option for licensed themes like Jurasic World.
  8. I have no interest in buying entire sets but only dinosaur figures themselves. I found and bought both Stegosaurus and Allosaurus off eBay. Can’t wait to add them to my animal kingdom and to put them in my city so they could terrorize citizens lol.
  9. Last night, in my dream, there wa a rumor about Lego Beauty and the Beast set. It had me excited so I woke up and visited here. Disappointed, there is no info about Beaut and the Beast. Lego, come on, give us Beauty and the Beast set/miniigure already!!
  10. Oooh, reddish orange and yellowish green colors sound interesting for non-licensed modular buildings! I never have issues with “unrealistic” colors for modular buildings like olive green for Natural History Museum, combination of dark red, blue, and bright yellow for Jazz Club, comination of lavender andn tan for Police Station. With artist’s eye, I think they look fantastic in thier own ways. It is very fun to make our modular cities more colorful rather than “standard” colors, such as gray, tan and brick red.
  11. Gotcha I prefer to call it “Day of the Dead” over “Halloween” for Mexican culture myself,.
  12. You had me confused there but man, I’m glad he is kicked out…. We deserve a good vacation from him….
  13. Huh? Is that suppsoed to bea a Day of the Dead holiday?
  14. Wait….are you talking about that legoturtle guy??
  15. Why did you type in full caps here and other threads? It’s not okay to use full caps to “shout”…. And why posting nonsense stuffs on threads??
  16. we had the original cotage several years ago and now we had. Santa’s Visit set in 2021 (it is my first WV set ever nd I love it). I skip Holiday Main Street becuase it doesn’t appeal me. My aunt gifted me Alpine Lodge and it’s not built yet. Anyways, I missed the original post office years ago, if we get competely different post office that is set in North Pole, I’m totally fine wiht it. :) it’s pretty nice to have some more. North Poe town. I mssed out on both Santa’s Workshop and Elf Clubhouse, oh well…
  17. I’m still waiting for in-house Halloween-themed Winter Village-style sets! Since Halloween is the second popular holiday in USA (Christmas is the first, if you ask me) I don’t mind new in-house spooky themed series like Winter Village and Lunar New Year series. I would love to see a bunch of buildings that are filled with monsters and trick-or-treaters like Winter Village (Santa, elves, and non-fantasy people)!.
  18. Lol it was a joke between me and him…. He suggested that idea in CMF thread.
  19. I won’t complain about this mining subtheme yself. :) Oh, and include a zombie miner with a mine cart costume!
  20. Not bad, I like it. Thanks for the link.
  21. I want more aniamls! I want more medical stuff! I’m kinda tired of fire and police sets every winter wave.
  22. I feel it is the same answer as before. This might not appeal to a wider audience other than City and F1/racing fans.
  23. I don’t know if Santa’s Visit set is counted as “winter fantasy” like Elf Clubhouse. But I welcome another fantasy Winter Village set!!
