  1. Nice crane Gioppa! I love the compact size of it all and the fold out support legs. The small design can go with any breakdown train. How much weight can it lift and is the base strong enough to lift most trains and/or cars? Great job!
  2. If you're talking about the trains in pixel form in my sig go to here: http://www.fa-meier.de/lego/depot.html Sorry I'm on my android and can't locate the link tags but just copy and paste the url. Hope this helps.
  3. Nice little video about Maersk train. Can't wait for it's release on April 1st. I liked how he showed us how the well cars work. I was pondering how that maersk blue brick helped keep the 2 containers on the car. 119.99 of next month's bonus check is going to one of these sets.
  4. Nice video Andy. I think you did well on the time lapse. Next time you'll have more batteries ready. Can't wait to see the the new layout in the coming months!
  5. I found it around the same time also but only the past year has my ordering been month to month. I make about 2 orders a month averaging 15 to 25 dollars a month mostly key pieces to my MOCs. I don't go too crazy cause I'm on my own not set in my money making career yet. My switcher loco MOC is main one right now but all that's left is custom decals. I have a few one other small ones that I'm working on. I've ordred only one set so far and that's 4563 from Europe (shipping was pricey!) My storage problems are being solved while I set up my new layout in my new place. When I see moutains and muti-layer layouts that's when the thought of how much that would cost to replicate!?
  6. Hi Ayato Zechs! Welcome to Eurobricks! Nice little video you found though it's fuzzy. The flimmaker seemed to be in a rush. Watching the new cargo train running around the new city sets makes me want it more!
  7. Wow this is a nice surprise for my first break at work. It reminds me of the red loco from the start video of Lego Loco. I agree with lightningtiger it looks like a rail repair train with MOW truck and the ballast car. Then you have the box car for the equipment. I love the color of it! I hope this another set for 2011 and with the Maersk train we're getting spoilled! Now I just need to hit the jackpot to afford it all...
  8. This is sweet now that we know the release date. I hope it's released stateside the same day cause it right around my birthday! I can't wait to see the detailed engine described in the descirption. I'm gonna guess it's removable to allow the PF, just like the firebox in EN. The instruction booket sounds nice too.
  9. Wow way to maximize space! Gotta make room for the new sets right? Can't wait to see the time lapse remodel next week. Good luck and have fun.
  10. Nice job with the cars! Can't wait till we see what you you do with the engine. A while back ago we were discussing how to power this set in this topic. Hopefully this will help and give you ideas based on other people's MOCs. Good luck.
  11. Wow what beautiful Locos! I like the green one too in the last picture cause it's my favorite color also. Plus I like the gray wheels in it too. The PF engineering in the red one is marvelous. Congrats on completing your Crocodile collection!
  12. I agree that EN will most likely be on it's way out especially when Maersk comes out. I hoping to time my purchase right and get it half off like a few other set I've gotten from shop@home when they get cleared out. I've gotten 7747 and 7746 at 50% off so far.
  13. The video seeing it in action makes want it more! Also points out the need for another 9 volt motor and more track to run the train with my others at the same time. Go Lego for helping me fund brinklink shops.
  14. Man, I regret not having a credit card at the time TTX rail cars faded out. Thus missing my last chance for North American Trains from Lego. Or so I thought.... Fast forward to now and being way over 18 and having one. I want this set and will save every last penny for it. The engine and cars look beautiful and I love the tractor and trailer. This set would nice in almost any layout's cargo yard and especially ones with harbors. I will be counting down when to when this set is released.
  15. What a Beautiful road train! Can't wait to see it in action. Too bad they aren't needed here in the states. It seems like it when I used to live in rural Nevada. All i got to see was doubles and triples. Great job AussieJimbo!
  16. I like the wooden red look on the outside with the cylinder bricks. How thoughtful of a double bunk so the minifigs can work in teams! Beautifully done! Great job CCOOK!
  17. I made a simple red and black tender with my 9 volt motor. It didn't have enough weight to push the locomotive alone so I had to add weight in the form of dead AA batteries. The motor was able to push the train around my simple 9 volt oval. My girlfriend was pleased to see the train move on it's own power with the Toy Story characters on top. Nice build Goldenmasamune. Looks more like the actual train from the movie.
  18. Ahh what a dreamlike harbor. I love the massive intermodal cargo exchange going on. One can never have too many containers and ships carrying them. I also like the the little details like the one ship being attack by ogres and the car being towed out of the water.
  19. I agree with TheBrickster. I've been excited with the Trains line up all this year. Still saving up to buy some as a matter of fact. But like many have said single train cars is very unlikely unless Lego changes their mind and makes them more profitable. Like for example sell them at outlets like Toys R Us. That's the only place where i can find Lego Trains anyways in Las Vegas.
  20. Back after a few days of no internet. I've manage to catch up to 15/16 after a half hour of riddle solving. Kudos to who made the Karate Master clue. Made me laugh and smile after I found it Just the pesky Surfer is left for me. Need to find areas of forum I have yet to explore and solve the riddle.
  21. Nice scene SavaTheAggie. Love the Black Widow painted SP loco.
  22. Great Job The Red Brick I love the eye catching colors any child would love.
  23. The Spartan took me about 40 min to find after researching my brother's favorite theme after a few years of absence. The DJ only took 10 minutes after deciphering the riddle. The Witch took me over 2 hours to find cause I kept *edited* 7/7
  24. Nice Review jd5775! This is one of the top 9 volt sets that are on my wish list. Mainly for the muti-functionality you outlined in the review. It's a must need for the construction and trains of my city. I love the effort you put in to the variety of cargo possibilities.
  25. I did too. Wasted about 15 min on a wild goose chase. Four down, twelve more to go. Great Job everyone! We're a quarter of the way!
