Wow. I like how it's way different from stations usually shown here. Keep up the good work.

There are two things I dislike. Clone brands and Duplo. So for our little kids we bought some Hubelino marble run sets. OMG... and I like it! My wife started building with Duplo and Hubelino and shares her creations on social media. Last year one of her builds featured in a promo video by the Lego Company. Every now and then she gets asked for building instructions. I have tried using LDraw for this, but it only works for builds using Duplo parts only. Would it be hard to create parts for Hubelino elements? See it in action on Instagram

[MOC] Twelve Custom Cars for the 10254 Winter Holiday Train
JasperL replied to mouseketeer's topic in LEGO Town
I'm loving it. This really makes for a great Christmas train. I would love to take some ideas from this. But first I'm trying to Bricklink your Chocolate Factory. (By the way, any expensive elements in these cars? Those golden round 2x2 plates in the Chocolate Factory will cost a fortune.)- 7 replies

It's a nice building, but it doesn't feel wintery to me. Those few white tiles en tooth pieces don't do the trick for me.

[MOC] Once upon a times when master Wu was young...
JasperL replied to Vincent Q's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
It's a magnificent build, but the photography is distracting. Because the focus area is so small most of the beautiful details cannot be seen.- 54 replies

Anyone know the secret history of the gray era 12v/4.5v system?
JasperL replied to zephyr1934's topic in LEGO Train Tech
This year marks the 40th anniversary of Lego Technic. There is this article on the Lego site about the early days. Would love to see a similar story on grey era trains! -
Exactly. The front track is not connected to anything. In fact, it's off by an odd 6.5 studs or so. However, I do feel the scene needs this track. It turns the station into a hub where you could switch trains. It also makes sense to have a restaurant and facilities at such a station. So I started building the signalbox. This is just my first mockup to find out which parts I'll need. The building is actually a bit taller than I had expected, but I really like it. Still fiddling with the dimensions and figuring what interior I'll put in.

Awesome! That station in your first pic is one of my favourite scenes in the book. Did you notice btw that the tracks on page 43 don't line up? I've still got plans to build the signal box on page 30. Your pics are inspiring, I should stop making excuses and make the darn thing!
-
Great job. I think I'm gonna take your idea and build it. Might change some things along the way depending on the pieces I have though.

12v trains in alternative colours - looking for some inspiration
JasperL replied to exstatik's topic in LEGO Train Tech
Great you're still around.You really did an awesome job on this one. I fell in love with it because it blends in with other grey era trains very well, yet is completely different from the official trains. I tried to keep as close to your model as I could. I used 1x6 tiles over the door so the roof comes off more easily. And I put on red headlight bricks because the 162 has them, but I still don't know if I like them. And finally I've replaced the 1x2 brick behind the black ladders with two 1x2 inverted slopes because the ladder kept falling off. And that's about it. -

12v trains in alternative colours - looking for some inspiration
JasperL replied to exstatik's topic in LEGO Train Tech
When I was looking for a 12v moc I found AJW's updated version of the 162. I have built it myself and call it my 7762. I particularly love the axle configuration on this one. See his post from 2009 and his Flickr pages. He also updated the 727. -

This can easily be released as an official Lego set. I hope it will be.
-
Great! Can't wait to see the final result. My favourite part is the decorative use of the underside of the 1x6 plates.

O man, I really want to ridicule on this. But I can't. I think I'm in love. Original idea, original use of bricks and colors, can't fault it. My city needs one of these!

Modular Building Sets - Rumours and Discussion
JasperL replied to The Jersey Brick Guy's topic in LEGO Town
Wow. I thought last year was a standout, but this one comes closes too. And I also like the new Expert logo. -
What an amazing video. Only thing is that sometimes the morphing effect plays tricks on individual studs. But man. The amount of work. Wow. Wow. Wow.

survey Picture versus Video Reviews
JasperL replied to Bonaparte's topic in Forum Information and Help
It takes a lot of effort and a lot of time to create interesting video's. I think Jangbricks does this really well. His video's really show functionality and you get the look and feel from all angles. More than any picture review could ever do. Madaboutlego uses a different approach with timelapse builds and short clips. I like these too, but they don't count as reviews. But most video reviewers fail miserably. And that's why I think EB should stick with picture reviews. -
The HE looks great in long configurations on large layouts. But mine is only one set and just an extra engine. I'm fine with that. I'd say don't let the train be longer than the longest straight on your layout.

I know not all of you agree, but +1 on the brick built reindeer
