Great look forward to it 😊

Well said, I'm new so don't have that much history. I do want to post my project but I'll only post that once and not ask for votes. I'm interested to see what other topics come up and happy to help where I can :-)

I know, such a poor decision, I had some good ones including the barracuda, monorail, loads of model team, etc, got a nice modern collection now though, I may buy some back in time 😊

thanks for your reply, I do have a video on my channel but very little response, I think the majority of the subscribers are parents of kids who just want to watch brickfilms, the supporters need to come from AFOLs ideally 👍

Thanks, I don’t really have a following on social media so tried a few different places, Facebook groups seem to be the best for me, thanks for the advice 👍

I was at a local carboot sale and saw a technic truck with a pneumatic arm on the back, I thought why not so bought it and decided to do an animation of me building it,really enjoyed doing it so made a Batman animation for youtube as the Lego Batman film was due out and it got millions of views. Guess the right place at the right time. Then won a few Lego animation contests and won signed Minifigures from the actors voicing Batman, joker, garmadon, Lloyd, parts of my entry are actually in the Ninjago movie and the full entry under bonus features on the dvd, also won a trip to Lego house, so did ok really 👍

Thanks for your feedback, much appreciated, I’ve added a link as suggested 👍 I loved the arcades as a kid, we went camping every summer to the east coast in the UK, spent every night in the arcade 😊 Thanks and glad you like it, I wanted to combine my love of Lego and arcades, I think it came out ok 👍

Many thanks for your kind words 👍

Hi all, here is my Retro Arcade MOC I submitted recently on Lego Ideas. It’s been suggested I don’t ask for support so I won’t. Bring out your inner child with the amazing interactive ‘Retro Arcade’. Join Charlie on the coin operated sports car or grab a drink from the vending machine. Help Mollie’s Grandpa win a teddy on the claw grabber or help yourself to some candy from the gumball machine. Pop inside and hold on tight on the superbike or put your driving skills to the test on the car racer. Why not finish off with a good old blast on the arcade video games before taking a snapshot in the photo booth. Bursting with fun, working functions and indoor light bricks, the ‘Retro Arcade’ is a winner for all ages. Features 1,849 pieces and 7 minifigures. Interactive functions include: coin operated sports car, claw grabber, super bike, car racer, indoor light bricks and a rotating planet on the arcade roof. Hope you like it 😊👍 https://ideas.lego.com/projects/09c20a79-394b-48e1-b08a-4f65ce212f1e

Can you dye parts?

I was behind in the series Minifigures so caught with series 19,20,21, I use these in my animations 👍

That’s good to know many thanks 👍

Yes they are great, I think I got them from Asda about £2 for 10, so Booker are much better value, cheers 👍

Many thanks for your help 😊

I’ve done mine by colour, then bricks, plates, slopes and everything else into takeaway containers

Many thanks for your reply, it’s all new to me so any advice is very welcome 😊 I’ve messaged Brickset to see if I get a reply, thanks for that. I’m happy to do a post about the project and not ask for votes if that helps, where abouts on here would I start a post about it, and where is the best place to host the photos as I think I read you can’t add any on here, many thanks 😊

Thanks, I've hopefully just started one :-)

Hi all, I'm new to Eurobricks and new to Lego Ideas. I've recently submitted my first project called Retro Arcade. I'm wanting to know from your own experiences the top 5 places to promote your project?

I'm new to Lego Ideas and wondered what your experiences are in promoting your project, what are the top 5 ways of getting it out there?

Hi all, I'm Rich from the UK. I've been into Lego since the late 80s to late 90s. I thought it was a good idea to sell it all to buy a DVD player in 2000, big mistake! Then had 15 years away and returned to the Lego scene about 5 years ago producing stop motion brick films for Youtube. Not done much filming since COVID appeared, and the kids being at home. It did give some thinking time which made me create and submit my first ever Lego Ideas project called Retro Arcade. Hoping to receive some help and guidance on how to get to the magic 10K. That's it for now folks, thanks for reading.
