Very nice cruiser. My first thought was just another set, but the more you look the more details you see. Great work I always like to see MOCs without wheels. Brendan

FastRax

Nice and fast with some serious articulation! Looks pretty solid too, after that roll over or roll down the hill I didn't see any parts flying off! Well Done! Brendan -

Great looking Kenworth and perfect touches with the chrome. Brendan -
Great looking tank. All the details are spot on. Well Done! Brendan

Thanks for sharing this fantastic build with us MacGyver. I found it ironic the ship breaks in half for sinking transport. Amazing attention to detail and it pays off with the end result being a true Masterpiece WELL DONE! I hope to see this on the Frontpage of EB soon! Brendan PS let me know if you come to Australia with it. My son and I would love to see this one up close.

10220 T1 VW camper van MOC

Yes that's what I meant a plain background is best practiced. Would love to have the money and room for one of these. -
10220 T1 VW camper van MOC
Aussie BJ replied to tibivi's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Good job on making the Camper RC powered. You couldn't tell from the outside. You have a great collection there on Brickshelf. Investing in a good camera with macro function and an empty back ground would make your great MOCs and sets look even better. Brendan -
[MOC] SENNEBOGEN 683 R

This truly is an amazing crane with a great functions, reach and speed. The safety officer wouldn't be to happy with no guide ropes attached to that bridge section' Brendan -
Top Fuel Drag Car
Aussie BJ replied to Aussie BJ's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Thanks for the tips DLuders I think the over all lack of speed is motor size V's weight. It comes in just under half a kilo. I did change the ratio's but it was slower off the mark for memory. When I get my hands on a large motor I will have another go at building one for speed so I'll keep those wheels and tires in mind. Thanks Keiren, I took my time with engine hence it looks similar to the real thing. I'd like to see random flames shooting out the exhaust though! -
[MOC] Hitachi ZW 310
Aussie BJ replied to dfs473's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Very nice MOC with excellent attention to detail. Although I had to look twice at the top picture with the extra arms/booms but then I realised it was an excavator in the background. Also looking forward to a video. Brendan -
Hi All, here's my latest creation as the title suggests a 'Top Fuel Drag Car' Powered by 1 M motor and built for more Looks than speed so 8 seconds to the 4 meters is rather slow. My 7yo sons drag car creation blew my doors off but it was a lot of fun and even with a handicap I still lost! Just on 31 inches or 79cm Long Full blown, ported, polished and blue printed Chev V8 fakie! Wheelie bar to stop it from flipping and Parachutes to just stop it! Wind tunnel test rear wing for down draft! On board camera makes you wish you could shrink down and have a drive. Finally, on board shot to show the blistering RPM this thing produces. More pictures here Thanks for looking Brendan

PP wheeled crawler
Aussie BJ replied to Tamas Juhasz's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Very very nice and inspiring. Great little touches with the flags, net and exhaust. I just want one! Brendan. -

Dragster MOC
Aussie BJ replied to Hopey's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
Yes living and breathing in Maclean. Small world that's for sure. Mine is only using 1x M motor but after seeing the graphs posted here I might change it to a PF-Train motor I have and see if it's any quicker. Would like two XL's that's for sure but no one has them on Brick Link in Australia. Yes designed from the start. It had steering for a while but that was just painful and it's a dragster, so it only needs to go straight anyway. Brendan -

Aussie sales! Share the news of LOCAL sales!
Aussie BJ replied to Darth_Legois's topic in Buy, Sell, Trade and Finds
I'd say it will considering the US price is $199 and a simple Google currency exchange makes that $189 AUD so as they do mark it up another $100 for us Aussies and there ya go $289. I spoke to a LEGO rep yesterday in Target and she assured me they would be in store in September but warned me there isn't much stock. Brendan
