This is okay 👍🏼

I need to add them. Forgot it. Will do that tomorrow. Basically the usual rules with the addition of a picture of the original model.

Then don't choose these models I can see the Extreme off-roader working perfectly fine without stickers btw. I know a guy who did a review back in the days and he didn't apply the stickers. Model still looked great.

Another good reason not to allow them

You don’t see it as a problem, but the you pretty much sum up all the reasons why I’m not allowing stickers

No, it's not the same, because 3rd party strings and rubber bands don't make a model look better. Being able to make great stickers is not part of the contest. Would not be fair to people who don't know how to Photoshop and make stickers.

Hi. No custom stickers. You can cut genuine LEGO stickers (at least, I think I said that on one of the previous pages), but that's it.

There are no limits in how you shoot the video. So that's okay.

Yeah, that's okay

Of course. Actually....this should be mandatory

I know that TLG was looking into Japanese options. So this could very well be the case. Obviously, this is mere speculation.

Yeah, maybe. Probably not, but who knows. Some people might not be able to make instructions, so it could make a difference.

I did answer this question quite early in the contest. Hmmm good question. Since we are doing Jury voting, I guess it won't harm posting the right away.

That sure looks good! Keep up the good work.

The new gearbox pieces sure are a welcome addition. Looking forward to MOCs and the next supercar.

So? Leave out the electronics

And I quote... You are required to participate!

In case of the 8109 it's okay to use system parts to recreate the grill/hood.

I have answered this question in the discussion topic. Adding new functions is not what this contest is about. That being said; a working steering wheel is okay. Actually, I do love this set as well.

Not sure if I can tell. They might sue me Early next week probably.

15 minutes if my memory serves me right.

We are a community talking about a great new set. Who cares who got them first?!

Let's not start a discussion who got which pictures from which source. Thanks.

Yup. At least we have something to discuss.

TLG has moved the embargo on the 42159 set at the last moment. But not everybody got the memo. TLG being TLG. Can you explain in more detail what you mean? Not an expert when it comes to gearboxes. I do see some interesting stuff in the gearbox pic. Edit: It looks like it will be easier to turn a rotary movement into a gear shift.
