Modular Building Sets - Rumours and Discussion
antp replied to The Jersey Brick Guy's topic in LEGO Town
I don't remember if 60002 fitted in the Fire Brigade though. I recently got that truck with a mix of various set in a secondhand buy, I should build it to check. -
I host pictures on my server, so I was using MOCpage just for the structure/referencing and for displaying info around the pictures. Brickshelf is just picture hosting, Bricksafe seems similar. I don't really want to use Flickr either (which is also still just a photo album).

Modular Building Sets - Rumours and Discussion
antp replied to The Jersey Brick Guy's topic in LEGO Town
I did that, since I didn't like the old one :D (and later replaced it by 60003) -
Good that I see this thread today, I wonder how I missed it since its creation... Thanks for doing it, I hope to win something nice like last year :) Anyway here is a quick MOC, remembering when a Swedish friend published a photo of his car after people from Continental Europe were complaining having a little snow

In my case pages come empty, but if I wait a few seconds the contents finally appears. Often while loading a page there is also a few seconds where my browser freezes... I'm using Firefox, but it didn't seem to work much better in Internet Explorer. I wonder how they made a site so bad.
-
I wonder the same... I could not find info since there seem no active Twitter or Facebook account about the site. In case the site is gone, is there a more reliable alternative? Or is there a thread about solutions for that (other than flickr), to avoid starting a discussion if one already exists on EB...

It meant that the other way round: the 30s are often mentioned, but the car is too recent for the 30s. -

Another year-reference is the car of the Palace Cinema: 40s/50s style -
I think there are clone ones indeed. The circled ones being probably that. These clones have slightly different legs it seems; also one at the right of nr 1 There are also strange legs in red at the bottom of the pic, maybe the same ones?

Thanks. Indeed I hesitated putting tiles on the roof, like what was done in set 21010 Robie House (from where some of the dark red parts come from)

Some time ago I made a minifig-size replica of my apartment, the next step was making the whole building. But as it would require more parts than what I have I settled for a microscale version. I had that project since some time, and a challenge on the Lego thread of the hardware.fr forum was a good opportunity for that. Photo of the actual building: Captures from Google Earth, giving a better view for an easier comparison: Page on my site: https://antp.be/lego/moc/apt-block.php

Most of other EU countries seem to have it as 260€ (FR/BE/NL too) ; it is just Germany which is cheaper than others, as usual... not sure why.

On that photo it was bright pink. According to photos I made previously in July 2013 and January 2014 I found that part in Medium Lavender. Not sure in which store it was however (Lille/Levallois/Wijnegem/Köln), I posted that back then in this thread but I'm not sure how to find it. I was also often forgetting to check what was available. Last time I was happily surprised by what was available in Lille store, so I made three figs as I found nice parts in the build-a-fig bin.

It is the other way round: cheaper in Germany. Belgium and France have the same price as Netherlands (usually France is Between Germany and Belgium for the price). Last year I went to Cologne for getting the Brickbank + Ghostbusters HQ, there was a 70€ difference compared to Belgium. Usually for 20€ difference I go to Lille store, but here since the French price is the same as in Belgium I'll order it on S@H (Cologne is too far for only 20€). As the value of the £ decreased (right?) it is normal that it appears cheaper in UK ; Lego tries to compensate currency changes usually, so prices do not change for people buying on their own market.

The "type 2" of the part (4285b) is used in http://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?S=6771-1#T=S&O={} maybe it is that one?

Looks nice, good work :)

Bike Helmets in the Shape of Lego Hair Molds
antp replied to Forresto's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Indeed, I do not know why all sites mention Lego despite a Playmobil is well visible. Maybe because that helmet is from a Danish company. However a similar hairstyle exists in Lego too. -

They always have problems with their site at that time, maybe launching a big product on a Wednesday will allow them to make everything ready on Monday & Tuesday -
Land Rover just built the worlds largest Lego structure
antp replied to Nacho's topic in General LEGO Discussion
That works if they didn't glue it -
I take care of aligning the subtle mark that's on the surface of most of 2x2 tiles, as they tend to be visible in plain light; same for the mark at one end of most of 1x6 tiles. Same for other "marks" that I try to keep symmetrical (e.g. in the corner of the 2x2 window glass). In the same way, the side of 1x2 & 2x2 tiles has an injection mark that I try to hide.

Land Rover just built the worlds largest Lego structure
antp replied to Nacho's topic in General LEGO Discussion
I can't help seeing that a little like a waste of parts/plastic what will that structure become after the event? -
There is a brick in a military-green color that makes me thing to the use of non-Lego parts. The base plate also does not seem to have "Lego" on the studs... (though that it is difficult to see)
