  1. Thanks for your tips! Learned a lot tho! and thank you so much for your support!
  2. I posted my very first Lego Cuusoo project a year ago (Modern Modular Furnished Beachfront House), and I have found it to be a very rewarding experience. As a newbie, it has been a steep learning curve in crowdsourcing on the internet. I do see a point in limiting projects to a year, however, for me personally, I would appreciate the two year limit, because not only am I new at this, and learning how to use the many types of resources, but I have also had a problem "marketing" my concept, as it is an original non-licensed idea, making it difficult to promote and search for. I have had a lot of positive feedback in my comments on Cuusoo, and other platforms, so I know there is a definate interest, and people willing to purchase it. It just takes time to cultivate it. I forgot to add that I do periodically edit my project, change the photos and descriptions, and check in on the comments. I don't leave it there and let it grow stale. I invested a lot of time and money into it, and hard work, and I am proud of what I have created on my own.
  3. Would love an "Otto and the Springfield School bus", and Homer as Captain Pie Man, and Bart as the Cupcake Kid.
  4. Does this Lego Store have anything that is exclusive to it like a California Lego Keychain fig or something else?
  5. Hope to see Otto, Patty and Selma, Moe, Barney, Duffman, Edna, Groundskeeper Willie, Principle Skinner tho I know some will never be made, for obvious reasons .
  6. Oh! Good observation....didnt know that....thanks!
  7. Yup, i think u r right. I read the same thing somewhere. I just noticed on the back of the Grand Emporium box, there is the Green Grocer, and I think when GE was released, GG got retired.
  8. I luv this set! Great review too. Curious tho, i noticed in the picture on the back of its box it does not have the Fire Brigade, Grand Emporium and the Pet shop in it. I wonder if that is an indicator that they may retire them soon?
  9. Yes, especially booklets with technical terms, related to Architecture....my friend wants one too so i told him to go to a barnes and noble to check it out....then the thot of hauling that box in a suitcase was a turn off. :o Ahhhhhhh damn it!
  10. Thank u so much for ur genuine support for my project. Any votes you can garner is appreciated, as it is non-licensed. I got my pink bricks at a Lego Store pick a brick wall. It was a fluke, nearly a year ago. Since then, i have seen it on the wall one additional time. It seems they have more pink bricks now with the Friends sets in production. I have even seen purple 1 by 3 plates on the PAB wall. Still, ur right, seems pink is rare! And i agree about the staircase. It needs to be reinforced, or redesigned.....i was actually thinking about a redesign, but the problem is the lack of desired bricks to do it, and ordering takes so long. And the thot of people buying multiple copies of my house makes me giddy!!! Big smile on my face right now! :)
  11. I was told at a Lego store in Canada, that they are in the process of translating the booklet into French, hence the delay in the Canadian release.
  12. Thanks so much! Its generally difficult for non-licensed projects like mine to get votes, so interest from the greater Lego community is much appreciated! Thanks so much!

  13. Some additional photos of the interior and the roof.
  14. Good point! LOLOL u never know!
  15. Sorry if i have posted this in the wrong category, but I wanted to share my first moc creation published to Lego Cuusoo entitled Modern Modular Furnished Beach Front House. It is a displayable and playable piece meant for adults and children alike, both boys and girls. Please do not let the pink colour put you off; I have proposed this in many different colours including neutrals like grey and white. I designed it with the intention of making this house as flexibly integrative as possible with all types of Lego scenarios. This house is bifold; it can open in the middle on hinges like the Monster Fighter's haunted house, and the roof is removable in 3 parts. It also has originally designed furniture and assessories. I am currently working on the landscaping. A complete set of updated photos are available at the following links: thank you for your interest and your vote!
  16. OMG...omg...omg....this is the most amazing moc i have ever seen...seriously, this is nuts....i am speechless.
  17. I was wondering what everybody's is on whether or not Lego will be correcting the "sheild" mistake on the brick and on the box, and if so, if you think the secondary value will go up substantially or not?
  18. I luv this thread! so much fun seeing everyone's ideas and lego rooms. I just bought the large sort and store lego head and luv it!
  19. OMG! nice review! I really want this, but I was told it may be a while for it to come to Canada, because they need time to translate the booklets into French. I hope we don't have to wait too long!
  20. Hi everyone! I am new here. My reintroduction to Lego started with the Monster Fighters Haunted House. Then I got interested in Architecture, and Superhero figures. I also love the "home assessories" Lego items.
