  1. I think the best part of this is that awsome tree, and the red mini figs and the blood drips.
  2. Picking up my extra two sets to total 4 of the new white train. Going to make up the extra wagons and a club car and I will put up a pic. With the parts you can make and extra coatch with the two front trains
  3. I will be buidling mine with code 250 rail and old 12v track plates, to make it lego like. This will be cheap to make but harder to make as hand making turnouts is not that easy but once you have a jig made up its not that hard. But nice image of the turn out give me something to work off :-)
  4. Sounds like the bushes are gone in the motor and at some point it will die or die after about 15-20mins of running. Ref my fix guide. http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=83667&hl=%2Bfixing+%2Bmotor
  5. Nice work looks good.
  6. I think the movie sets killed them I think, i bought them but they are crap sets.
  7. I bricklinked two if these and it worked out only a little cheaper than buying a whole used set. But it is a nice model but you need two to make it look good. Most expecive part i found at the time this was 3 years ago was the black roof slopes what set me back $85 NZ to order like the 16 you need for two.
  8. All I can see is it is on toyworld order sheet for later in the year. If it was not already boxes and ready to ship out i dont think it would be on there.
  9. I did always think the movie sets had killed the line and we know that for sure now. Dam I just wanted a b-bop and rock steady and a real krang also KC. I dont care about the sets we can moc but the minifigs are hard to Moc and never look as good as the real thing.
  10. Well i know the passenger train would of done well. the freight i dont know, I still have not got one due to the cost for what it is. But that red freight train looks almost no different to the old yellow one, seams like a bit of a lazy design.
  11. I have some 7 wide Mk1 coach plans, PM me.
  12. Ohh did not notice the track nice work, is that the code 250 track :-) it does look better than the 200 I was using.
  13. Coming along well, good work.
  14. I am a huge TMNT fan from the 80s and seen all the shows since. I own every TMNT lego set even the beginners kids one, shreders lare and past shreder mini fig and the two limated comic con figs And will keep buying them if they keep coming.
  15. I have 4 of these now, got two for free and bought two. It is a good price and does look better in person.
  16. been wating metal wheels for a while, there was another guy on here selling something simaler on BL but he is out of stock and I have contacted him to no luck. He has a whole kit what was nice, these look awsome, but the price is that for just 2 wheels?
  17. I got told today from the toy world order sheet, its due March in NZ at around $350 NZ and the 2nd wave of min figs. But it is the kwik-e-mart for sure.
  18. really nice
  19. Would you be able to make me some up the store is closed on bricklink. Would be keen on 4-5 sets.
  20. Could I have the Lxf? Love to build it.
  21. Cant wait for the metal to come out
  22. Just think bricklink is the same as trademe 99% of the people on there are honest and just trying to make some money. But the 1% are there to rip you off, and lego at a really good price and low cost shipping for a Heavy set is normaly to good to be true. Dont let this scare u away from bricklink I have been using it for years and not had a single issue, the ones i have had where normaly shipping related and where resolved with a refund or packege was found by NZ post. Its just like trademe check the sellers feedback and go from that, I only pay via Paypal as they can recover the money for you if you get ripped off. And normally the sellers with the highest feedback norally have the best prices and shipping prices, but my only advise of brick like is keep an eye on the shipping costs. I have lego from the UK and CHZ are the best for shipping cost, but the USA is the best for rare parts but shipping is very heavy. There are some local NZ store but parts are high priced and only good if you need something fast and they have it. Buying from Oz is not really worth while, keen an eye out at some of the stores in Hong Kong and that they have good shipping prices to but not much parts.
  23. Ya I was looking at a bender just yesterday I just dont know if its worth the $85 for the amount i need to do haha, issue with Aluminium is it oxidises and needs cleaning more. Will for sure bend easyer and is half the price of silver but I need to know if I will need to the long term storage cons to Aluminum as my layout is only used once a year at shows. Would love to see ya WIP for the switches, I am going to make all mine high speed switches so i dont really care if they end up being 1000mm long haha. I want to get a large amount of bends in production first before i move onto switches, streight track is easy and quick to do. Been thinking of making my bend sections i a complete length of rail so 910mm long but for this I will need a rail bender. I still dont have a track plan down for the new layout this track is for but I am keen to have it about 12m long maybe a bit more and likly it will be a normal ovel nice and simple with display on one side and a fiddle yard on the other. Goal is to run long full rake lego trains in British rail, so Trains running between 10-13 coaches what are 60 studs long.
  24. I am also looking at switching upto the code 250 rail the G-45 peco track for the higher rail height again and they have some kool extra bits that will help me when I get to making my switches. I have not planned on the switch length yet but i will be looking at least 500mm long for a normal LH/RH
  25. No update on this yet, Tried to made a 2nd bend with some time I had the other day. This time I tried without bending the and letting the sleepers keep the shape just like flex track. But what i found was the gauge of the does not flex that easy so when i removed it from my jig is wanted to spring back straight. I was unable to pull it apart so I ended up wasting about $10 of parts and the last bit of rail I had. So I am now waiting for some money to buy some more rail and joiners, what is hard at present due to xmas costs. At least i found out i need to bend it by hand before I make the rail, I was just trying to get the bend as smooth as possible. I might need to buy a rail bender but they are not cheap.
