  1. Nice one! Favorite part is the departures sign.
  2. Maybe because the account is inactive? Anyway, if the project is in high demand it can be re-submitted and will reach 10k in no time.
  3. Looks really nice, especially for an alternative build!
  4. Excellent build... like always!
  5. Hopefully the poll is ready. 1. I had a hard time deciding which one to choose, so I won't elaborate on it. 2. Technic is definitely aimed at experienced builders; even TLG themselves states that Technic is one of the most challenging themes. Despite the age labels (which feels a little bit random), the sets still appeal to adults. There are a few more things that TLG could have done: 1) Include an introduction section to all licensed sets 2) Use printed parts instead of stickers, unless it is a racecar or something... 3) Use black pins, blue pins are made for easy assembly but I don't think they are necessary. 3. Obviously mechanisms because that is what Technic is all about! I also voted authentic because I care about both playability and displayability. I'm not a parts collector, so I didn't vote any of the options related to parts. Remote control vehicles are cool, but RC sets are usually overpriced.
  6. Looks amazing.
  7. Thanks for the review! This is definitely one of the best micro fighter sets.
  8. Thanks for the review! I'm pretty impressed with the set, especially with the B model.
  9. Great review! I was pretty sure it was going to get a good rating.
  10. I'm glad there's finally an affordable and good-looking excavator, definitely an "outstanding" set! Thanks for the review!
  11. Fixed the poll so you shouldn't need a google account to respond, sorry about that.
  12. This is the only way to prevent people from voting multiple times.
  13. Very impressive! The piano looks especially great.
  14. The best-selling one currently have 931 sold, and a shark figure has 1701 sold.
  15. I'd actually say the majority voted (and will vote) 10/10. The rest of the wedges will probably be equal.
  16. Let's see how this goes. link Edit: Thank you to the 42 people who took their time to answer the poll.
  17. I think there is a Ninjago 40th anniversary promotion or something. Still, I wish TLG didn't have to cancel the GWP for this set...
  18. It's probably not too big, but there's clearly a demand for pirate sets...
  19. You can bring the broken pieces to the store to request new ones. If you haven't made any progress on the build, it may be easier just to return the whole set.
  20. Great build as always.
  21. Not all prices for LEGO sets are going up. Some themes are generally getting more expensive as sets are getting bigger and better. Other themes (like Star Wars) are getting cheaper but the quality of the builds are still good. But for this set... I'm sure $200 would have been the perfect Space Shuttle!! It would be hard to display a huge Space Shuttle next to the Saturn V and $270 is just expensive to spend on a toy. After all, it may not even be a Space Shuttle, or any space-related set!! On the bright side, the set is still listed as Space Shuttle on JJP's site, but I suspect the information will also be updated soon...
  22. I realized the price just changed to $269.99 on promobricks. I'm not entirely sold on the idea, but it could mean we are getting a much more detailed Space Shuttle at a bigger scale. Still, what I hoped is something similar in scale with the Saturn V instead...
  23. I really like the idea for stunts. Hopefully the sets can line up with one another like modulars do... Also like the idea stunt bikes - maybe given as GWPs? Off topic: Happy birthday @Brandon Pea! Have a great one!
  24. Looks great! Maybe you should only post once about a specific project though - I think that is the reason previous posts were removed. If it is in the wrong forum, you can always ask staff to move it.
