same thoughts exactly are the instructions of the original available anywhere? That would help a lot in combining the 2... Also any insights on why LEGO doesn't simply use the original construction? That's the whole idea isn't it ? They don't need our instructions but if they want to encourage this why do they alter the designs ?

love this! how are the shuttle and moon connected? cheers stanley

minifig heads of the pickup set looks like george lucas...

Hi there, This project has been on my desk far to long so I just decided to start sharing some pics. Nevermind that after this decision my iphone and ibook won't sync the photo's... So for now I just have this one picture... It's the front of an imaginary canalhouse in Amsterdam. The whole idea of this Canalhouse started with these stairs. I have been intrigued with the staircase steps from the HP dumbledore office since its release and kept fidling with it. For me it was really challenging to work with half studs and uneven number of studs on plates. More to come as soon as the above mentioned technical abracadabra works again. Really interested what you all think of my "Geveltrap"

I really like your idea of making a moc out of the filming itself. In search of the ultra rare "george Lucas" figure someone mentioned earlier in this tread i found out that Lego itself did this a couple of years ago. Like we keep telling ourselves at our home "everything has been done before, only not by us" cheers Stanley

why oh why (just out of curiosity) are the pieces from series 2 not allowed and why are the minifigs not allowed to be shown? I really don't get the meaning for this rule. it just seems constricted without any reason. On the other hand you make the rules and the fun of this forum, so it's fine anyhow! thanks for putting up this great contest. regards

Excellent

I like the arealight way more The shaped torso. I always disliked the TLG way of printing waists... and arealights idea is simply brilliant. The "hair" the tlg version has detachable hair, now with all the other star wars custom molds and toy story molds, there is no way anyone of us can still honestly say the original lego feel is preffered because of history reasons. the face print is better in arealights and also not very important his version is way more cheaper regards stanley Kbrick

and on bricklink now for $125,00 No kidding that's some serious plastic definitly not my shop And that ends my search for a max, unless someone has a normal priced spare?! regards stanley KBrick

Congrats! so who is member # 1 en who is member #10.000 ? An indepth interview would be interesting. regards stanley

Congratulations. So many great entries, so you must feel really proud. regards, stanley

Whitefang, thank you for a great contest. It was great watching all those vignettes. All entries are great and I honestly can't choose three. So instead of disapointing 55 inspiring vignettes I rather give all my points to just 1 vignette. Somehow this is easier. dum dum dum The entry I choose is for the dullest collectible figure available dum dum dum The entry I choose has the most realistic dramatic contemporary choice of subject of all dum dum dum The entry I choose mixes up all this while being really funny at the same time dum dum dum THREE POINTS FOR: 52) Deep Sea Diver Entry (Build by graznador) Good luck everyone. cheers stanley

that's right. I completely forgot about the figs within that set. It's from the laboratory set (excellent set by the way) link to figs with this torso on bricklink actually really cheap. cheers stanley

But mrs Elladora is a vain girl and she dyes her hair... I don't think it's available in gray. Except for the hair of dumbledore himself, the old pigtail-, and the ponytail hair I don't know any gray hair pieces. I'll make a bigger picture for you later. Glad you like it, regards stanley Here's the picture you asked for

Really inspiring! Now, you asked how we would think mrs. Elladora would look. This is mine version: As Mrs Elladora closed her shop, some boys came running and asked for candy. Now mrs. Elladora is a really sweet lady and she offered them some caramalised cherries for free. (the legs and torso are from a castle set I believe, the hair is from princess Leia and the head is from none other than proffesor Dumbledore) Hope you like it. regards stanley

The town folk eagerly await the start of the fashion show where all the new clothes will be revealed. a vignette for any or better said all the new collectible minifigs. As the frst rule for this contest reads: "Create a town based vignette where you could display any one of the 16 new Collectible Minifigs from Series 1." I at first thought that the vignette had to be suitable for displaying any (read all) of the new figures... Hence a catwalk where all can be displayed. Hope you enjoy it. I am really enjoying all the entries (and going to the store to check wether the figures are already available here) kind regards, stanley

Excellent moc. I must try to make one myself. My son and I really like avatar and we have the figs. I'll try and make one using your photo's as a reference. I do hope that I am able to figure out how to build it... cheers stanley PS overhere we also love your zurg and lightyear vehicles!

excellent, the playmobil classic medieval line is really good but your twist makes it even better. Is there a place where I can view your other transformations? regards stanley

excellent re-creation. Love the elevator and the garbageroom. Not sure wether the ork is luke or han though... cheers stanley

not accepted? Well it doesn't fit on a 16*16 plate so that would be a good reason... Although I posted how much I wanted to be included, it's only virtual so it's not that big a deal. The idea of your house is good. So, let's build on that as a regular moc. Keep it up! stanley

So I beat you to it eh? Nice one. I like how you can take of the roof and have it modular. I also like how you extended the hull to loose the flatside ( I tried this in my Pillage entry, pirate pancakes) I don's quite get the two masts though, are they chimneys? or masts coming through the bottom of the ship? Wouldn't your build look better if you put the walls one stud (or half a stud) further underneath the hull? cheers stanley

So here I am really happy that I've been frontpaged on Eurobricks with my fisherman's house for the Community build. I'll click on the classic-pirates.com frontpage (where I never come since I enter this part of the internet through eurobricks) and I find out that my own "pirate pancakes" moc has been frontpaged as well (but more than a week ago and its already dripped down to "older posts") Wouldn't it be great to let people know that they are being frontpaged? In that way they are able to enjoy it! Anyway I'm really happy that my mocs are being appreciated. cheers Stanley Kbrick

I just found out that I've been frontpaged! Sweet. So for a change I hope that nothing special happens in the world regarding Lego, the longer I'll be able to enjoy it. So please y'all stop building those mocs! Coming weekend I'll be changing my build a little bit and adding some fig(s) I'll post new photo's as soon as possible. By the way this entry has two buildings. Should I seperate the buildings in two threads or not? This both in regard to the index and the community build. Please advise. Meanwhile keep the feedback coming. (and I'll change that Eagle thing...) regards stanley Kbrick

In the Community Build entries thread it is stated that anyone can now join with a normal house So this means that my hull houses can be included! Thanks for the nice replies/comments sofar. regards stanley

Hey that means that my fisherman's house or captain's house can also be included in the community build. Do I just take a place on the map or does someone assign a space to me? The latter is preffered since it makes it more official. Anyway here's the thread where my houses can be seen. Comments are welcome and appreciated. regards Stanley
