Ok, cool lego seemingly taked notes from pantasy and started a community feedback survey. Well, i don't have hopes that this will change anything. But it's nice that lego at least tries to connect with fan base. Eventhought lego seemingly doesn't lissen to our complaints for technic having too many cars and not enought backhoe loaders:). http://youtube.com/post/UgkxeCYeb5wEChzv_8QQwqaP5WLaGjgpAqsO?si=A8P0ilsss9VcSvOp

Well, yesterday i launched the Mechatech Mechadozer and it seems like to be a instant success. But i have noticed a few comments highlighting the tracks being too small. Well, when i started to think the concept. My head instantly had an idea and vision to use the black tracks on the Mechadozer. But apparently they were too small. Well, i didn't have any issues with the tracks and they don't bother me plus they weren't downsized, that was my original idea to use black tracks. But if i make another bulldozer in the future i will make it to use the bigger tracks. But to be honest lego's 70-90s bulldozers were about the same size and they used the black tracks. So for me the black tracks aren't a issue. But thanks for pointing out this "flaw" and i will rework it on the new bulldozers. Because i do lissen to feedback and this was my first attempt to make a bulldozer so thanks guys for your honest feedback and improvement ideas:).

Yeah, my opinion koenigsegg, bugatti and pagani are at same level small manufacturers but they are really well known. Pagani cars are truely an art piece. While Bugatti and koenigsegg focuses on raw perfomance, speed and horsepowers, and its cool and impressive that Koenigsegg and Bugatti both have over 1000hp engines while koenigsegg uses smaller V8 instead of the bugatti's bigger W16, and still both can go 400km/h:).

Ok, amazing my most liked moc on rebrickable is the first Soapbox Collection model the Mini Dump Truck with 62 likes thanks a lot for the support, and on youtube the functions video has 1.2k views. Still the bigger dump truck the better 42203 with the crappy gen 1 instructions has over 8.6k views im shoked that i reached almost 10k views, oh wow:). And a little update i don't have currently any projects. But i have builded a prototypes to try out a few functions:). And so far the community reception for the Gen3 instructions are positive. So im happy that my hard work for improving free instructions has payed off, and i hope that for now i don't have create Gen 4 for a long time since Gen3 instructions are soo perfected over the Gen2.1 and over the first standard the crappy Gen1:). So i hope i will return soon with a new model so in the meantime stay safe and have fun time building:).

Hi again, it's time for a new pantasy set:). Specs. Brand, Pantasy. Model name, Table Fan. Model number, 85044. Release date, 01.03.2026. Piece count, 950. Special elements, BAS electronics and chromed elements. Price, 79.99€ on amazon de plus around 14.99€ shipping:). The box and shipping box:). The model arrived in a typical small amazon paper bag with no protection inside. But the model’s box arrived in relatevily good condition:). And the reason for paper bag delivery is for environmental reasons. Good job if this is true:). The box:). The artwork on the box is really beautiful and pretty. The box is medium sized, square shaped box:). Inside the box:). The box was 87% full:). Bags and instructions:). Inside there are 15 bags in total. 5 numbered bags, loose instructions booklet without protection and 1 unnumbered bag with blades plus a mystery pantasy branded blue bubble wrap envelope:). The instructions:). The Instructions booklet has 123 pages with 277 building steps:). So far this instructions booklet cover artwork is sadly the worst one by design:/. First pages of the book:). Last pages of the book:). The mysterious blue pantasy envelope:). The envelope had the most toughest glue in existent Luckily the mysterious envelope didn't include free money for positive review or illegal stuff. Phewww, I was a little bit worried:). The mysterious blue envelope included all the BAS elements. This is soo welcomed change that they do come protected. Nice and good job pantasy:). BAS electronics elements:). Unique elements, recolors, prints, etc… Ok, this printed piece came nicely protected in a bag:). The blades are in a nice metallic bronze/copper color:). Building Process:). Bag 1( 3 Bags in total). Bag 2 ( 3 Bags in total) Bag 3( 4 Bags in total) Bag 4( 2 Bags in total) Bag 5( 2 Bags in total) Spare parts:). Unique/questionable building solutions and tricks etc... :). This cable routing method worries me so much:/. Looks:). Functions:). ON/OFF switch, Motor driven blades. With a simple gearbox to make the upper structure swivel left to right:). Final note:). The Pantasy desk fan is overall a pretty good model with cool functions. However there are flaws, firstly the on off switch works really poorly and secondly the motor cable routing is questionable. A slight nitpick is that the model doesn't have any height adjustment. But to be honest i don't know if it was even possible to make without compromises so im happy that at least the upper structure swivels left to right:). And yes, the blades do create a nice small breeze:). The printed pieces are again top notch:). So do I recommend this set? :). Honestly yes, this is a nice small relatively affordable model with cool electronics. With the same money if you want an electronic set from lego your only option is the Lego smart play darth vader tie fighter smart brick crap set which is only available in 6 countries while pantasy is available basically everywhere, and pantasy’s BAS system is far superior electronic system than the smart play crap:). Pros and cons:). +Electronics included +Looks +Chromed pieces +Only prints +Value for money +Swivel function -/+No height adjustment -The ON/OFF switch design is a joke and it doesn't work 98% of the time. Final verdict:). Playability 4/5 Looks 5/5 Building experience 4.5/5 Value 5/5 Piece quality 5/5 Instructions 4.5/5 Functions 4/5

Yeah, i agree. But it's sad the alt bricks forums are a convoluted mess. It would be nice if there was just a one forum page for those. Just like lego forums has, and all alt bricks have their own, Facebook group etc... So that's why i do like posting my alt bricks reviews and stuff on eurobricks because this is the most simplest and easiest way to do it. Eurobricks has perfected so many things that the current alt bricks fans pages lack:).

Well, since eurobricks don't have alt bricks forum. I will going forward also bring and post pictures of pantasy's marvelous technic engineering to this topic. Because it truely needs more recognition. So this topic is used for my mocs, other stuff plus showcase for pantasy's marvelous technic engineering and some other alt bricks marvelous technic engineering:). And slight honest talk with alt bricks:). When i was kid in finland we only had lego on main stores. But in well equit flea markets sometimes you did find cobi sets, and cobi sets back in 2010 era were really poor. Luckily current day cobi is much better than on the 2010 era cobi sets, and in my childhood/youngster era anything else than lego was poor in quality plus design wise too, and in around 2017 there was that massive lepin fiasco which is probably still the main reason for lego purists sill hating on alt bricks. But then camed the sad year of 2020's and peoples had to stay inside. So after the 2020's there was and still is a massive flood of amazing alt brick brands, so after 2020's alt bricks from east got better and better. I didn't buy then or knowed they excisted. Only developements this bringed to finland was mega construx sets and pokemon sets plus some weird brick sets. But those were interesting for curiosity point because lego was still the king. But in 2025 massive change happened because i found pantasy on accident when i was browsing merlins steine for curiosity reasons, and august of 2025 i bought my first Pantasy set and ever since i have been a loyal pantasy fan and alt brick fan;). But 2020 was truely the year when everything changed the alt bricks becamed mostly in house created designs, and they were not any more a cheap knock off crap, and my dad is still really massive lego purists he hates every single alt brick which is kind of sad. But currently too the lego vs alt brick is a massive battle field. Because lego purists don't like att all the alt bricks, and it makes me little bit sad. Because pantasy for example is not a curiosity piece it's truelly a great alternative to lego and i love pantasy and im truely enthuastic for their design, and then the is lumibricks, with their own lighting system, and then my third really curious brand is brixies which i have to do review some day. So im not a lego purists my self i like lego. Because it was my child hood love in their hayday in 2008-2017 but currently lego doesn't truely spark me to buy lego sets in excitement, like they did when i was a little kid. But now pantasy, lumibricks, brixies, plus others have sparked my excitement for new releases and im waiting patiently for their new releases and eurobricks situation is kind of sad. Because some reason eurobricks treats alt bricks as bottom of the barrel crap and im forced to make my reviews for alt bricks in comminty forum which is ghost town. So they aren't getting attention. So why the h*ll eurobricks has not allowed other amazing companies on their platform. Because i don't like at all that alt bricks don't have their own forum. So again i will make wish. Please higher up mods don't treat alt bricks anymore like crap. Please make alt bricks forum. It makes everybody happy because im a huge fan for alt bricks and i want the eurobricks to change for the better. So please treat the alt bricks as true serious competitors and give the alt bricks fan base their own forum. I don't like that currently alt bricks are treated like crap plus eurobricks should unite the brick fans not to discourage alt brick enthusiasm talk and suppres the alt brick fans to the comminty forum. They deserve better, and i will die on this hill until alt brick comminty is treated better so please make the alt brick forum possible thanks. Plus i wish you to have a nice weekend:).

Ok, i might sound like broken record due to my huge enthusiasm toward pantasy and other great alternatives(lumibricks etc...). But i have slight sad feelings because i enjoy pantasy, and i really like to express my true love and enthusiasm for pantasy in here but sadly pantasy and other alternative brick companies are suppressed to the community forum which is ghost town mostly. I really and truely wish that alternative bricks gets their own forum because they have mostly grown out of their bootleg origins. Yes, i know there are still true knockoff's like Mould King. But pantasy lumibricks and others are true competitors. So why eurobricks has not changed because of the flood of great alternative bricks. I really and truely wish there was a forum for alt bricks. But sadly probably why there is not any alt bricks forum is due to lego purists and purist hates alt bricks. But lego is too alt brick from kiddicraft idea. So it's really interesting to look how big of an battle field is this lego vs alt bricks stuff and this makes me slightly sad. Because pantasy lumibricks etc... Have truely they own set ideas and they should not be surpressed to the ghost town forum. I know it's really hard to change lego purists view of alt bricks and on my opinion its fine. I have too grown in a lego purist family and since lego was and still is for some degree a monopolistic company in finland we don't have massive alt bricks markets. But i got into the lego in they hay day 2008-2017 and all of those era sets were really cool and i still love some of their new stuff. But most of them don't anymore appeal to me same way as when i was a kid. But pantasy lumibricks etc... Have truelly sparked my passion to collect alt brick models and display them, and i have a huge passion and enthusiasm for pantasy lumibricks etc... Their designs are soo cool and original. Just like in lego's hay day and it sad for me that my love to pantasy doesn't get att all reconition and i do get hate. But i cannot stop comparing lego technic to pantasy. Im really sorry for this. Because i love interesting mechanisms and electronic functions and lego doesn't anymore have those. But pantasy has and it has sparcked me a lot of curiosity to look carefully of for example the craft brewery technic drivetrains. So what i will say. Please some one of eurobricks higher up's make the Alt Brick Forum possible. Alt Bricks brands have a huge community following in Facebook for example so it would be nice that those peoples could move to eurobricks. Because eurobricks should be uniting brick fans and not to discrace alt bricks talk. For me thisnis really annoying that my passion gets suppressed to the ghost town community forum. So tldr. My biggest wish for 2026 is that the eurobricks will get new Alt Bricks Forum page. They do really deserve it and only sticking to lego stuff forums is really primitive currently in this age due to massive rise of great alt bricks sets and companies and this needs to be desparetely to be changed. So massive thanks to eurobricks mods if they will move foward and lissen to feedback and make alt bricks forum reality i would be soo happy that alt brick comminty will get their own forum and i will die on this hill. Because alt bricks fans deserve better than ghost town comminty forum:). So massive thanks for the higher up mods @Jim @Milan @aFrInaTi0n for their amazing and hard work connecting and uniting brick fans around the world and hopefully getting alt bricks fans as well on board in their own Alt Bricks Forum. I cannot even comprehend how difficult it's to run forum page like this, and i wont criticised them. But to send a nice constructive critisim and feedback that the alt bricks community deserves better. So thanks to all higher up mods if they lissening my feedback and will get to work uniting the alt brick fans as well on board. Because currently they have been left behind:). So any one wondering i don't want to roast anybody i just like to express my feelings and opinions and im really gratefull for your massive support for my moc building career. It has been so wonderfull journey to be with you guys. I have learned a ton of new things in this journey, and with these nice words have a nice spring and i will be waiting patiently if mods lissen to my feedback and they will make new Alt Brick Forum page possible and move my pantasy journey and nifeliz journey from the comminty forum to that new forum where they truely belong. So stay safe and have a fun time building:). Sincerely Auroralampinen

Ok, apple just unweiled their new macbook neo and im seriously considering to buy that. While att first it seemed it might be slow. Well, after watching a lot of reviews it seems to be plenty powerfull, and comparing to mine 2016 i5 computer the A18 pro chip should outperfom my elitebook(Which is really wild for a phone chip). So time to start saving up money for 512gb model so my moc building reviewing operation can get better, and im android, windows and linux user but i have used apple products so getting a macbook should not be a massive hurdle for me:). Edit, of course i will buy the pink color it looks amazing compared to my gray elitebook;).

Ok, im really curious will lego implement the 9 speed gearbox for the 42232:). The Light Speed Transmission (LST) comprises nine forward gears and several wet, multi-disc clutches in a compact, ultra-light package. It is capable of gear changes between any gear at near light speed, thanks to its simultaneous opening and closing of clutches. Here are the real koenigsegg technical specs lets see how many will lego implement on their 1:8 scale car:). https://www.koenigsegg.com/technical-specifications-sadairs-spear

Ok, while i hate to "brag" about pantasy. Because i get a ton of hate from that. But pantasy last year maded ad developed the amazing BAS(Brick Alive System) electronic system. And unlike "trashy" Control + system. Pantasy has allready pumped out over 10 BAS system sets currently. And this year currently pantasy has put so far the BAS system on 3 sets. One yet to be released modular building which functions they teased in their facebook group, table fan and one circus contraption. Plus their new sewing machine has a ton of manual technic stuff. So thank goodness for lego for not pumping out anything interesting for technic line up. Since pantasy has made soo many interesting system builds with motors and technic functions and im now soon in financial debt. Because of pantasy's the sheer size of interesting technic stuff and electronics in system build line up:). So i truelly wish that lego will some day make a great technic model. But so far everything is the same with different bodywork. But luckily pantasy does innovate a lot of new technic stuff on their models and they truely deserve my hard owned money. But hopefully some day lego will suprice us with something great again. But on the meantime i will spend my money on pantasy sets:). And no, i didn't get any paychecks for roasting lego again. This is again my own opinions and my own free expression of the current technic line up situation:).

Yes there is, the unique Dihedral synchro-helix actuation doors. Im really curious how they implement them in massive giant scale compared to "tiny" jesko. In my head i think the solution uses a ton of turntables. But i do over build, design and think stuff. So the solution might be a lot simpler:).
