Everything is possible, but it's not really necessary. You can scroll through the entry topic and make a short list etc. It's only two pages.

Cool concept. I could use a setup like this for my EV3 robot. Some (or all) of the wheels need to be powered, but that won't be an issue. Nice

This is the list of entries. We will open the voting topic after we have done some final checks. 1. Fire Ant by Didumos692. The Boydell Stomper by Doug723. Formula De Vil by Superkoala4.

Nice renditions! Please be aware that you are posting in a six year old topic though.

Let's not open up a can of worms in this topic please. Hehe. I will touch the topic of OCD in one of the stages of my review

They are used at the bottom of the hull plating. There's a lot of plating, so it's hard to tell. You have two options; go through the manual and check every step. Or.....simply don't care about them

My review is scheduled for publication upcoming weekend. I will make sure to include a picture of my leftover parts.

That is a correct leftover.

Yup, we have an awesome Index topic with lots of useful links

The two Plate, Round 2 x 2 with Rounded Bottom (Boat Stud) are not correct as left over. They should be used somewhere.

Yes Yes Yes

Thanks Doug. I will correct it when I go through the final list.

Hi, This is a message to inform you that we will close the contest Tuesday morning as stated in the information topic. VOTING We have had some discussion and we have concocted a final voting scheme. There will be a public part and a staff part (as announced earlier). The staff jury will consist of several extra staff members, so it's not only me, Milan and Blakbird. Staffers will vote according to the criteria stated in the topic (hopefully, just like you). The staff jury votes will be doubled and added to the final score. This means we will definitely have some extra weight, but the majority of the points will be allotted by the members, that's you guys. Unfortunately, the names and scores of the individual staffers will not be disclosed. Our decision is final and non-debatable Good luck!

18. Uno's Car: His Fortressness (posted by Jim for @MegaRoi) Since he was a young panda, Uno's destiny was to become the most fearless, fast and famous Wacky Wheels Race Driver of all time. He wants to be on top! The beginning of his career is well known, since you can choose him in the start screen of the original Wacky Wheels game (quite simple, same with the game graphics). But during the races he wasn't too fast. So he changed his cart in later games - as you can see by the different colors - but still wasn't fast enough to really catch the lead in the race. Then Uno decided to build his own Race Cart! Main concept: - 42048 inspired chassis and wheels - HUGE! - POWERFULL! - WEAPONS! - MORE WEAPONS! - And again a new color combination So he came out with a Windtunnel Concept, inspired by the Stipa Caproni Aircraft, which had the correct amount of "Wackyness" to give him the correct advantage over his opponents in a Wacky Wheels Race. "His Fortressness" is not generating a Slipstream, it's blowing the opponents behind it away with it's huge front propeller. Even in corners, where the air blow will be guided by the double rudder. The vehicle is propulsed by two BigBlock V4 engines, which makes it quite fast and while it's rear wheel steered, it's very maneuverable. On the rear wheels are also wheel cutters, to prevent being overtaken. RC functions: - front wheel drive, 1x L motor - same motor turns the front propeller - same motor turns 2 fake V4 engines by chain drive on front axle - rear wheel steering, 1x servo motor - same motor is turning the dual rudder - 1. weapon, bomb layer, 1x M motor, 3 shots - 2. weapon, oil layer, 1x M motor, 3 shots - 3. weapon: double machine gun, 1x L motor, 2x5=10 shots - 4. weapon: double booster, 1x L motor Manual functions: - On/Off switch on front - laser shots, LEGO, 2 shots - LEGO Duplo Panda removable - shovel, broom and tools removable And the video: And the link to the entry topic:

That is exactly the spirit we like to see. That is why I love EB so much as well He is The Chosen One

@Sir von Lego Stop promoting your webshop!

Hopefully next week. Have been sick the entire week, so I haven't been able to work on it like I planned to. Pictures are mostly done. Still doing the comparison with the 10179 part and the conclusion/verdict.

@AnkTales has made another great stop-motion video, this time using Light my Brick's LEDs. Click on this link or the image to see the result.

I totally forgot to conduct the raffle yesterday. Had a busy afternoon at work Here we go....mightly random.org...show me a number between 1 and 4.... The winner is 3 Congrats @Toastie. Apparently, the universe has chosen a train book review with ion-molecule chemistry I will send you a PM, which already includes a link to a dropbox file with a bunch of images PS Nice to see that there are lots of enthusiastic members in this forum. I will keep that in mind when (if) I get another train book

@mocbuild101 This is a very nice entry! Exactly what I was hoping to see. Well done

Actually that's very easy in this case. I only had the usual small parts left after each step and only one of them. Quite often I also had a 1x2 grill or something like that left, which meant that I missed it somewhere.

That won't be a problem. As long as you take your time to try and write a proper review, I am perfectly fine with unexperienced reviewers I will conduct a raffle around noon. For now I have: 1. @raised 2. @PeteM 3. @Toastie 4. @Rail Co

Let's wait another 24 hours or so and if someone else is responding I will do a raffle. I don't mind that you are not that active, as long as you are enthusiastic about trains There is no fixed timespan or embargo or something, so within a couple of weeks would be fine.

Hi, I have been sent a copy of the The LEGO Trains Book by the awesome people at No Starch Press. Is anyone interested in writing a review for this very nice book?
