  1. I was surprised to see this happens in real life too.
  2. @Legolegodaisuki that part doesn't exist in LDD as well as many other new pieces. You better use the alternatives: LDCad or Stud.io
  3. Better send your money to me - you still won't be getting any LEGO sets (like with that shop), but at least your money would be in good hands.
  4. Catawiki is an option for a place to sell too. I've seen rocket high prices for some old used sets, but in great condition. New ones should be even higher.
  5. On top right corner of the forum there is a drop-down menu, where you need to select "Account settings". Then "Signature" on the left side of the main screen.
  6. Estonia and Latvia, but not Lithuania? It is quite disapointing to say the least...
  7. Usually the same. But I had built a few crawlers I have driven outside. This resulted in some parts (gears especially) to be quite damaged. Oh well, I had them separated in case I would need to build something to drive outside again.
  8. That's cool! I like the way you've decided to build it modular. Do you have any pictures showing differences between two wheelbase versions?
  9. White works best, as it bright and neutral colour.
  10. I don't think this is the only reason. From the top of my had I could add few more: 1. These tracks are produced by 3rd party, so some enthusiasts, which consider themselves purist will not consider buying. 2. Price is quite high. You can get LEGO switches for 10-15 EUR for a set, while this R104 set is 70$. I understand the benefits, but still it is considerable difference. 3. Since parts are shipped from USA there will be substantial taxes, when imported to EU.
  11. Great model with lots of great details! I wonder how suspension is keeping up the weight? I hope it is not affected by the same issue Porsche has.
  12. New switch has been added to Bricklink's catalog. None are available for sale yet, but it give it some time.
  13. Well, you can bend such hose in small radius, but keep in mind it won't recover to its original state, i.e. will be permanently bent/damaged. So it depends on your definition of LEGO purity if you feel this acceptable or not. It is hard to advice what would be the best way for you, as pneumatic hoses are slightly larger in diameter. it will be hardly possible to insert pneumatic tube into hollow stud.
  14. The actual piece is has already been submitted (search for 6099773), but isn't approved yet, due to lack of image.
  15. Sets have been released just 2 weeks ago, officially. It is too early to ask for everything at this point. Brickset list parts when LEGO publish them. So they cannot do anything sooner. Bricklink relies on community to add new parts. It takes some effort to add all new parts and inventory the set. I'm sure this will be fixed soon, as it states "Inventory Pending Approval" already.
  16. I found that looking for required part on Bricklink and then following the link to Rebrickable to find actual LDraw part number helps. Rebrickable has each rigid hose with its dedicated part number. For example, 71192 is actual part number for Rigid hose 16L. And the same piece on Rebrickable. Haven't really used these before, but I don't think you can bend these in LDCad, for example. For this case I suppose you would need to search for Rigid Hose 3mm piece.
  17. Following same idea I'd love to see new LEGO engine parts, gears, shafts, etc. to be done from other vehicle's engines, gearboxes and so on. :)
  18. It might be just colour inconsistency.
  19. Fixed my issue and suddenly not only the bricks appeared, but the lag has gone also. Great! In my case existing item in menu has been misbehaving (not really picking up any changes). So I had recreated it manually from scratch and Stud.io is now running fine now.
  20. Where do you actually place this option? My command for application link available within main menubar is the following: env WINEPREFIX="/home/*username_here*/.wine" wine C:\\windows\\command\\start.exe /Unix /home/*username_here*/.wine/dosdevices/c:/users/Public/Start\ Menu/Programs/Stud.io.lnk
  21. We all have the same limit. You need to upload pictures somewhere else and post links here. More details can be found in "How can I upload pictures of my creations to the forums?" section of this topic.
  22. You didn't mention this still applies to LEGO, as the company might have changed plastic over the years. While your example with other toys might not be this progressive and still use old-LEGO-like plastic formula, which is prone to yellowing.
  23. This depends on the diameter you need. Same parts won't work, for different dimensions. What diameter you are looking for?
  24. White it is true for numbered bag you cannot apply the same for build steps. You simply cannot build more than it is available on your current page of instructions. Same applies to old Technic instructions with multiple pieces per step. TLG has introduced a part outlining feature for pieces used in current step. I think this definitely can be used to move towards more parts per step/page.
  25. There is a dedicated topic for this matter already. You might want to read it. And if you want a heart attack (I warned you!) have a look at these links: Flick group Matth Cornelis Walter Whiteside Jr.
