    Bad news folks, I've had to order the parts I need.....three weeks at least......I'm still up for suggestion on other features I could add to this......and before anyone says ATM....I'm planning one to go inside....hence the sign on the window.....keep watching anyway.

    Very nice, but I still prefer the 1979 Galactica.......by the Lords Of Kobol Brick On 'EKnight' !

    I noticed in the Advertiser this morning that Myer's are doing their famous buy two, get the third toy free deal again until Sunday........I wonder if I need anything ?

    Another person who raises the bar........AWESOME vehicles.....that donut van is my favourite of your designs ever......second would be the red Ford Capri......love it ! Now I can't wait to see your factory 'Hoexbroe'......keep them coming and Brick On !

    That part on top for the upper deck appears to be this..... Normally a ladder would slide along this and this bas acts as a base fixed to studs....so I high doubt it will slide itself.

    True, isn't good cop-bad cop character have the typical cop with silver sunnies on and on the other side....the smiling nerdy glasses face ?

    Bingo, price point is a problem, but they have to use some guide to produce sets. We now wait for more images.....it's a long wait.

    No, there isn't a sliding mechanism on there at all.....just technic pins, connectors, axles and modified plates to take technic pins....I still say the upper deck lowers and falls back for loading/unloading of that upper deck.

    You're kidding right ? I high doubt Lego would ever even consider a minifig based around that person......and neither for Stalin......what's next serial killers ? I agree a Queen Victoria would be a good minifig, how about Douglas MacArthur.....I know it's WWII but even the Loonie Tunes had fun with his corn cob pipe and his prim & proper hat/uniform ?

    Yep, and I will be hunting down as many of those Larry's just for the coffee cups.

    I still have to buy some parts for this, but lets see how it looks at the moment..... Keep watching !

    Excellent Vic Viper design there 'totohs'....the colour combination is fantastic......Brick On Fight On 'totohs' !

    Update time.....oh, by the way the roof is going to take a day or two to build......32 studs by 20 studs fully detailed....not easy to do. Anyway, here is today's progress shots...... More coming real soon so keep watching !

    Dam, I want to reverse engineer the vehicles for my Lego city layout......at least I can build the ice cream truck.....bet you that it uses new parts too !
  15. lightningtiger
    Now has anyone wondered why Octan sells ice cream and collect rubbish.......not a good business combo in my opinion ? They don't sell coffee......hence the 'Coffee Chain' shop, that's not Octan. Kid's will look at anything Octan branded next year and think it's evil.....well in a funny way ! Did I miss something.....box art.....where ? Edit - ah, I see.....does that apply to all the sets......that might keep the western and castle folks happy too !

    Now could our missing blue space guy be in an exclusive set ?
  17. lightningtiger
    Now wouldn't it be cool if adding to that car carrier a means to raise and lower the upper decks ?
  18. lightningtiger
    Excellent idea 'UE', I have a friend who wants to build a similar kind of turntable.....except his engines are twice the size of the one you have on that turntable. Brick On 'UE' !

    The whacked out fighting vehicles are the good guys......though why are plumbers using an axe - a prop on their nuclear-punk plane-van made with an axe and two heavy hammers - ouch that would hurt ? (no wrenches ? ) Finally, we now know where the taco guy lives......a convertible flying taco stand of sorts.......it can happen.......ever heard of fast food ?

    Excellent designing there 'Paddyb98', great use of 3677 engine to shape your own diesel engine (though I too feel it's one plate too high)......Brick On 'Paddyb98' !

    Okay, okay .....today I'll have one designed, last night I was sticker designing.....today sticker printing and yes, yes.....a roof, ......the roof, the roof is on fire (sorry, feeling I bit dippy this morning, must be leftovers from the Melbourne Cup yesterday ).......keep watching !

    There is no way other than Technic parts to help support the upper decks of the car transporter........though I feel someone will try and prove me wrong. I believe that you must first push both upper decks down so it acts as it's own loading ramp, put which cars you want on top then push them up/forward and them you can load the lower decks.

    Okay now is it me, but we'll get two set of instructions with the vehicle sets......plumbers van, ice cream van, etc, so you can build it normal and not so normal ! I hope so, I could do with those vehicles......minus the garbage truck and fire truck....as if I need another one of those. Many of the models do look steam-punk-ish, diesel-punk-ish and dare I coin a new phrase......nuclear-punk-ish......that's late 20th century-ish punk ! (well, since we are well into this century eh ? ) All the sets look like fun and designed to allow any of the minifig themes......space, castle, city, or even earlier town, western, and even pirate.....toss in ninja as well I guess ! The designers must have been told to just go crazy with their imaginations......now for Lego's hard job.....selling them to the public.

    Made some changes and the driveway layout is coming along nicely....... Anyway, thanks for all the positive vibes and keep watching !

    Nice work so far '-Zond-', I agree that just a few more good for sale would help the creation out......though the exterior has a European feel to it.....Brick On '-Zond-' !
