Alternate build of set 60458 (Pizza vs. Fire Truck).

This is a small spacecraft taking part in police chases somewhere in a distant galaxy.

It wasn't meant to be a complaint, I only shared an unpopular opinion and explained why I prefer stickers. I think that I might start collecting LEGO stickers, because I have no other use for them :) And l don't think I "won" because I didn't start in any "competition". Thanks for your perspective :)

Well maybe if I will have thousands of pieces and more experience I will change my view. For now it's just a wasted piece because it has some weird print that doesn't fit something I want to build.

I prefer stickers over printed pieces. I like my bricks free of any imagery. With stickers, I can simply choose not to apply them.
-
Nice idea, but the image is a bit too small to fully appreciate your work.

2025/26 Castle [wishlist/speculation]
Parrot replied to GreenhouseBricker's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
About fitting castles into a City, there are castles in some modern cities and towns, so I think Castle can easily fit into a city theme as "old castle ruins", "castle holiday tour", "old town", "castle hotel" or even "robin hood movie set". -
It is amazing.
-
This is so beautiful. I love the colors, very tasteful. Supported.

I know this is never going to happen, but if we talk about dreams, a theme based on Quake or Doom FPS game would be interesting for me due to nostalgia. I spent a lot of time playing these games. Recreating fragments of classic levels would be fun I think.

[MOC] Minirobot (alternate build from LEGO CREATOR set #31146)
Parrot replied to Parrot's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Taking this robot apart was a bit of a struggle. I had to pull the little robot's arms with all my adult force, and it still took me a while to dismantle them. Not sure if it's supposed to go into the wheel axles I used. -
You can attach any farming equipment you want, thanks to a ball joint at the back.

As a kid I sorted them by color as far as I remember. But I don't think it's optimal because it's easier to find color than shape. Now I sorted my 3 LEGO sets I have so far by general type: 1*x bricks larger bricks 1*x plates larger plates tiles wheels hinges, axles etc studs snots minifigures and plants weird pieces

Kind of reminds me of the Alien/Aliens movies, although it's Blacktron.

Hi, my real name is Jakub, but you can call me Parrot. I'm from Poland and I'm 44 years old. I learned about the AFOL community a few years ago, but I didn't buy any sets back then. My LEGO from childhood (early 1990s) were lost a long time ago, given to other children when I grew up. As a result, my "dark ages" lasted for over a quarter of a century. Even back then I didn't have a huge collection - just a dozen or so sets - but I really liked them, and for a child in Poland, shortly after the communist regime fell, it was quite a lot. This Christmas, somewhat to my surprise, I received a small LEGO set from my mom - the Jungle Explorer ATV (#60424). I built it, then took it apart and created my first MOCs. I hope that as I gain more experience and more bricks, my creations will start to look better. I've already ordered a few new sets :D For now, I'm posting photos of what I created from this "ATV" set (I'm sharing the photos here as part of my introduction). One thing I noticed after such a long break is that the bricks now seem much smaller. Strange. Maybe it's just my eyesight not being what it used to be.
