  1. I just picked up 3569 (Grand Soccer Stadium) and 4954 (Model Town House) on craigslist. I have no interested in the 3569. I noticed on bl there are none listed as used. Is this because no one wants them, or they are in demand? What is this set worth?
  2. My kids loved this. They tried ever box in the store. The minifigs, trains and cars would move around, it was entertaining.
  3. I have downloaded > 1000 instructions so far. More than 6 gig :)
  4. Nope, the instructions are not on http://cache.lego.com.
  5. Many thanks. It was the disconnectedness that was causing the problem. lego003.png
  6. I saw this in the Woodbridge VA store today. http://www.attractionsmagazine.com/blog/20...the-lego-store/
  7. I just got back from the LEGO store in Woodbridge. They told me the release date was August. That would suck.
  8. Are you sure it starts with 45######? If it is there, I will find it! Just got the Corner Cafe! public class LegoScraper { public static void main(String[] args) { HttpClient client = new HttpClient(); int found = 271; for (int i = 4513463; true; i++) { HttpMethod get = new GetMethod("http://cache.lego.com/bigdownloads/buildinginstructions/" + i + ".pdf"); try { client.executeMethod(get); byte[] body = get.getResponseBody(); if (body.length != 10839) { System.out.println("Found instruction number " + i + ", for a total of " + (++found) + " booklets...."); IOUtils.copy(new ByteArrayInputStream(body), new FileOutputStream("instructions/" + i + ".pdf")); } } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } } }
  9. How do you rotate an entire object say 15%?
  10. The first rotate went just fine. It seams that you can not rotate a section that has a rotated angle already. About the colors, yeah, alll the light gray in my model are blocks that ldd did not have the right color for. Does your program have any integration with bricklink?
  11. I have a MOC that I am attempting to design in LDD. I am having a hard time rotating the large portions. Here is my First floor: see the remaining two rotation points? I rotated two joints, but I can not rotate the remaining two joints. Is this possible in LDD? Here is the CornerV3.lxf if anyone is interested. P.S. Guess ho much this cost? (we need to have polls turned on!)
  12. Can you point me to why please.
  13. It is not a mirror, notice the reflection is missing the black mop board. Looks like transparent glass. Strange for a closet? Also not the different knobs on each side.
  14. Many thanks for the image. I will now have to change the color scheme of my next MOC, as I was going with a tan. That would make too many tan buildings in my town.
  15. THANKS To be honest, that is a bit of a let down. But I will hold onto hope when the hi-res pictures come out.
  16. LEGO is doing a great job keeping this under wraps, dang them!
  17. My kids and I put sets together, it is a great way to spend time together, and it strengthens their interest in Lego. I as an AFOL have no interest what so ever in putting a set together myself. It is all about MOCs for me. Buy some second had Lego. In the past 6 months I have purchased 200+ lbs for around $3 a lbs.
  18. I like the inverted bay entry, and how you solved the asymmetric issues with that design. I attempted a similar entry and ended up making the building too wide to keep it symmetric. I like your approach better. Keep us posted.
  19. A large majority of Americans call them Legos. I have a Lego block, you have a Lego block. Together we have some Legos. It is not going away. On craigslist I found I get much better results when I use the keyword LEGOS over LEGO.
  20. I will be watching
