So I emailed Archive.org about the problem, but sadly there wasn't anything they could do. They said that there were successful recording dates accessible. 90s and early 2000s was my prime LEGO era though.

Whilst an old thread, still pretty relevant today. It's quite difficult to think about. So I guess the following: Public Emergency Services Police Station > police van, police car, police motorbike < Fire Station > fire engine/truck, fire car < Medical Practice > ambulance, medical car < Public Services School House > educating people < Power Station > power generation for town/city < Water Plant > water fascility for town < Park & Green > park for kids < Garbage/Rubbish & Recycling Centre > somewhere to park rubbish/garbage vehicles & take rubbish/garbage to < Mayor's House > important figure, more security than traditional house < Private Services Petrol Station / Gas Station > petrol/gas pumps, simple store < Repair Garage > car repair equipnment, car items < Bank > ATMs, robery roleplay < Pharmacy > medical items < Barbers > barber chairs < Server Hosting > servers for web hosting < Commercial - Food & Drink Pizzeria Restaurant > dine-in restaurant or take-away < Burger Restaurant > take-away like Burger King / McDonald's < Bakery > bakery items like cakes & bread < Commercial - Stores General Store > general items for sale < Grocery Store > grocery fruit & vegetables < Technology Store > mobile phones, laptops, computers, etc < Furniture Store > beds, chairs, sofas, etc < Antiques Store > unique antiques some for sale, some a personal collection < Pet Store > pets & pet products < Clothing Store > buy clothes (torso, legs, hats, mini-fig gear) Commercial - Leisure Social Club > dining seating, a stage, food, drink, bar < Bowling Alley > bowling lanes, food & drink, dining, arcade machines < Arcade > arcade machines < Cinema > cinema screens, food & drink < Industry Warehouse Fizzy Drinks Factory & Bottling Plant Unique Buildings Haunted House / Abandoned Building

This is kinda a technical question, but it is LEGO related... I'm not sure if any of you have tried the 'Wayback Machine' on the Internet Web Archive, but I have been trying to access archived LEGO webpages of the time of my childhood. One error I'm facing, for say the year 2000: "No cookie." "To access this site your browser must be accepting cookies." It would be really sad if pages such as this were lost forever and inaccessible. Would anyone know of a possible solution to access these webpages? Perhaps Internet Archive could change some webpage code so that such cookies weren't required?

@Dutch Thriceman: I like 'em, good work! Had a little browse of your Flickr. 😊 @LegoModularFan: I can understand you building your MOCs mostly 32x32, they're incredible! They're works of art. 😊 For me, a smaller scale is more suitable. I've been lazy lately with the organization of the old LEGO parts, work has been taking too much of my time.

@Kivi I like. I think a lot of builders must use 32x32 or bigger.

@Berthil very creative MOC, I like it! So originally I meant 32 wide and 16 back. I understand a lot of people do 16 wide and 32 back though. As for 'saving space', I meant overall. As a kid I used to use 32x32 a lot and the town took up more space quicker.

Hello builders, I've started the long process of reorganizing my LEGO parts and I want to get back into constructing LEGO MOCs. I'm looking for inspiration. I'm interested in MOCs of a 16x32 foundation. Whilst I understand some may see this size as too small, I feel it's good for conserving precious space. I'm wanting to construct a street, with buildings opposite side. If anyone has any decent 16x32 foundation MOCs that they would like to share, please feel free. 😊 A quick search: scarovich - [MOC] Pizza Shop - 16x32 modular (will edit this post)

Hello, I recently got my LEGOs out of the loft and began to sort 'em. I had the LEGO stored in big boxes, but have some other storage methods I previously tried. During my sorting, I began to place bricks into drawers with compartments. I believe these plastic drawers are discontinued. I quickly filled these drawers and realized it wasn't a suitable method. I also have those LEGO 8-stud storage bricks - which are cool - spent quite a bit on these. My own issue is there are no compartments and I am not sure how I could put DIY compartments into these. Unless someone has amazing 3D printing skills? I dislike having 1 coloured box where all bricks are mixed but sometimes this maybe the only way... prefer compartments if possible. My current sorting method: Compartment A: 1x1, 1x2, 1x3 Compartment B: 2x2, 3x2 Compartment C: 2x? (bigger than 2x3) Compartment D: 1x? (bigger than 1x3) Compartment E: misc slopes, arches, etc Compartment F: plates misc This method would have been alright if say compartment A wasn't getting too fall up with bricks. Any suggestions/advice? ~~~ An AFOL

Absolutely beautiful! 👍🏻

Also to mention... This is completely new to me and sounds quite interesting. I would have to research more into this. I have thought about the Native Americans. Depending how far I reach with this project, they would not be of main priority, but I feel they should be fitted in. I am no expert when it comes to the Western times, but I would guess a town of a desert would have cactus and not Native Indian (Siuox). I noticed the LEGO Western theme focused on a desert setting, with the tan baseplates. Not sure if that is just stereotypical or it "could" have been set of the southern United States, nearer to Mexico? They were indeed different times. Using a church as a school building as well. I could be wrong, but they seemed like more tightly nit communities. I should research more into land offices. Sound interesting! Sounds sweet! If my town ever grew big enough and I wanted another idea, this would be considered. Sounds good! Nice addition! Train track with a good old train would complete the town indeed! Depending how far I reach with this project. This would not be #1 priority for me, but would be on my mind. Those are nice additions to help give the town life, such as the travelling cart-salesman.

Howdy folks! I am not sure how far I will go with this project, but I have spare space. Even if I only achieve at least one smaller MOC, I will be happy. I suppose cost and part availability is a factor. I am not sure how far I will reach, but I know I would leave big MOCs until last - such as a hotel. Smaller MOCs would be top priority, like a General Store or Gunsmith. For those who know the LEGO Lone Ranger theme, I now currently own x8 cavalry soldiers. Of this theme, the soldiers are navy blue. Only one of the cavalry soldiers have a rifle, but more can be ordered. If you are aware of the LEGO Western theme, the cavalry soldiers of that theme were blue (not navy). It has been a hard choice since I like both types of cavalry soldiers. I thought the ones of the LEGO Lone Ranger theme would be more "professional", but would love to hear your thoughts too. I ordered some parts from LEGO PAB online, since I do not live near to a LEGO Store. I ordered some LEGO pistols with other useful parts. I also ordered some minifigure parts, such as torsos, which I feel would fit a "Western theme". I saw there were candles as well. For those familiar with the seller - One More Brick - they sell custom LEGO creations. A long time back I had ordered from them. I feel some of their creations are cross-compatible with different time periods, say a grandfather clock could be used for a Western setting, a 1930s setting, even a modern setting. I love creations which are suitable for different time periods, where as a modern car could only suit modern times. I think the LEGO crate and box parts would always be suitable, unless one had a futuristic setting. The brown crate boxes can be used for a Western period easily. As a child I mostly focused on LEGO City, LEGO Creator (for parts) and some LEGO World City. I have somewhat touched some other themes such as Adventurers, Spider-Man, Racers, Harry Potter (the Chamber of Secrets), Castle (a cannon), Trains (a train with platform & track). I never experienced any Western but if I had, I would of had hours of fun. Some sets can be somewhat cross compatible like if you were to remove the vehicles and more modern equipment from LEGO Adventurers, I suppose you "could" have Johnny Thunder among the Cowboys. He could be a Western man who seeks ancient relics and treasures. I hope this project turns out well. :)

Howdy folks! As a child growing up, the LEGO City theme has been my most favourite theme. I also experienced some LEGO Adventurers, LEGO Spider-Man, LEGO Creator, etc. I never owned any LEGO Western sets or Lone Ranger sets, but had seen them online. I would save up pocket money, birthday money, Christmas money, to purchase LEGO sets from Woolworths (UK), Moons Toy Store (UK), or Argos (UK). They were "the good old days", indeed. Today I am a AFOL - adult fan of LEGO. Fascination and interest of the Wild West and Western has began to grow since playing - Red Dead Redemption 2 (2018) - by the famous Rockstar Games. It was indeed an incredible historic time period, with a lot of room for imagination and adventure. I would love to someday make a LEGO Western town main street, but seek advice from the Eurobricks LEGO community. If I was to build a Western setting, what should I consider? Any recommendations? What town buildings do you suggest? Some structure ideas include: Saloon Hotel Sheriff's Office Bank Stable General Store Gun Store Undertaker's Town Hall Train Station w/ train Barbers Mine & Mineshaft Hunter's Shack Fisherman's Shack Shack & Houses Fort ? Church & graveyard Addition ideas: Riffles, guns, pistols, dynamite Railway Wagons & horses Cactus

Nice! Sadly some people's photos are no longer avaliable.

Very detailed indeed, nice!

Yeehaw! 🤠

I love it! Great work!

I would love to start building some Western creations myself. Simple but not too simple. Looking for online instructions.

Thanks for the replies, I look forward to seeing more Western. :)

Growing up as a child, LEGO City has been my main focus. With exceptions. My first LEGO City Fire Station was set - 7240. I somewhat explored other sets, such as Adventurers, Spider-Man, World City, Trains, etc. With a childhood budget though, LEGO City was key. As an AFOL (Adult Fan of LEGO), interest has began to grow for the LEGO Western theme - which I never experienced as a kid. I suppose the game by Rockstar Games - Red Dead Redemption 2 (2018) - has fuelled this fascination. I have seen people's MOCs and they're incredible! I have tried searching tags such as "Western" and have spent a lot of time navigating search results, but I have somewhat struggled to come across what I am searching for. I have seen a ton of modern LEGO towns and cities, but not as many Western towns and MOCs. If any people of the community has any impressive decent Western MOCs and creations, I was wondering if you could link me to some? Searching of forums can be so tedious and searching Google Images, Large Images, only gives so much. The Australian YouTuber - Down Under Bricks - has impressive Western videos too!

Like it!

Photos no longer visible, buddy

I hope to see more Western MOCs, but them seem difficult to come across for me in the forum's search.
