    I think the painting/artwork above the toilet is my favorite part.

    Some nice details on the dropship, and I must say that those cars look great in the Agents colors along with their gadgets/weapons!

    Agreed- the barrel could use some more stability, but looks good overall. Nice shaping on the body, and I especially like the way the turret was done- it's great!

    It's great! Really nice shaping without ending up too large. NPU in a few places, with the nexo piece on the front working particularly well there. Well done.

    Very nice! Thanks for sharing (as always), Sariel!

    Welcome to EB, cactus america! I'm also in AZ, so maybe I'll bump into you at a Lego store or LUG.

    I believe you can't add links to a signature until you've reached a certain number of posts (an anti-spam measure), but not sure why you wouldn't see the signature option at all. Under the Account Settings you should see Overview, Email Address, Password, Display Name, and then Signature. Maybe you also need a minimum number of posts to create a signature now?

    Hi Rooneypower, The paperclip/upload option on Eurobricks that you're talking about is only for very small images to be used in your signature line here on the board. You only get 100K total, so even 1 regular image probably pushed you to the limit of available space. For sharing photos of MOCs, etc., you'll want to use a 3rd party service and I think most folks would recommend Flickr. Here's a tutorial on linking/embedding Flickr images in your posts: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?/forums/topic/97921-flickr-tutorial/

    I only had a couple minutes to look through this now, but WOW! It's really beautiful, and I think you have indeed captured the look very, very well. The interior looks like it's going to be amazing as well. Your fanciful vehicles are lovely, too.

    I guess I missed that back then... so must not have really needed it at the time. But I agree, if it's a simple matter of clicking a box in the forum settings it could be interesting to see and might be useful in some circumstances as noted above. Of course, I occasionally still go to the old Lugnet forums and then quickly remember how good we have it here.

    I don't think the posts are numbered sequentially within a thread, but each post does have a unique ID and you can link to it directly. That is, rather than saying "See post #47" you can say "See my earlier post here [link]." If you click the little "share" icon at the top right corner of any post, you can copy the URL to that specific post from there. And, honestly, I think that's more useful in a huge thread since I'd rather link to the specific comment that someone was referencing rather than clicking back a several pages manually and scanning down the page.

    Love it. NPU on the nose, and those legs are great as well with the way you incorporated the treads.

    Fantastic! The speed is quite surprising, but I suppose those Blacktron engineers have had years of secret development time! Great overall design (aesthetically and technically), and it looks like a lot of fun!

    Hi, and welcome to EB! That set was retired (discontinued) in Nov '16 in the EU and Dec '16 in the US, so you started looking for it right when it the last of the stock would have been selling out. The prices you see now are simply because it's no a supply/demand issue for a discontinued product. The price you're seeing on Amazon is from a 3rd party seller that still has stock and is looking to make some extra profit. You best bets now would be either eBay (looks like some have sold there in the last couple weeks for as low as £59), or Bricklink (going prices around £70-75 for new, sealed copies). You also might find it leftover on a small toy seller's shelf if you're game for calling or visiting smaller shops, but the more time that goes by, the less likely that is to happen. Good hunting, and happy building!

    The occasional sticker is OK, but I'd say I leave about 95%+ of them off... and I have a similar collection of sticker sheets! One observation about how my attitude towards stickers has changed over the years, though: Part of my dislike stemmed from when I was younger and didn't have all that much Lego; when the stickers limited the use of a piece (especially when Lego still did STAMPs - UGH!!) I'd not use them for fear of being caught short of a part I needed later or trying to peel a sticker off at that point. With a much larger collection where part scarcity isn't really an issue, I'm much more willing to put on the occasional sticker if it seems like it'll actually enhance a build. Anyone else evolve over time like that re: sticker use?

    Lovely! Instantly takes me back to that time and those memories... and without even using a Flux Capacitor!

    Welcome to EB, Acatus82!

    Welcome to EB, Tir! Plenty of train fans here to converse with!
  19. deraven
    That's quite the grand prize!! There should be some fierce competition on this one...
  20. deraven
    Wow - I love it! Really NPU specifically with the Duplo as Ben noted, and just the overall concept is really charming. The cave/chamber inside the tree trunk is a nice detail as well. It'd be great to see more of this realm!

    Have you tried turning it off and then on again? But seriously, if you haven't rebooted your computer yet, do it and see what happens. I assume you have after "updating drivers," but definitely do so if not! You might need to re-install LDD.

    Welcome to EB, mopc! You can post your MOCs in whatever forum section seems appropriate. For minifig scale cars (unless they're particularly science-fiction, steampunk, or otherwise differently themed), I'd got with the Town forum. Not sub-forums in there, so just title your new post appropriately for the MOC(s) you want to share, and post away!

    Welcome to EB! We can always use more brick-heads around here!

    I love everything about this MOC! The color works well, the joints are clever and subtle, the overall size and shaping is excellent, and the horns and bony plates all look fantastic. Bravo!

    Welcome to EB, Christian! Nice to have you with us.
