L@go

Let me just repeat my praise from Flickr: It's a brilliant rendition of one of the best-looking cars ever, and as far as accuracy goes, it's right up there with your amazing Porsche. I don't mind waiting for you to spend a long time tinkering with the design, when the end result is as stunning as this.

That is spectacular! I'd love to have something like that on my wall.

Also known as "The prices that the rest of the world pays for LEGO" In my S@H, Helm's Deep currently costs the equivalent of US$ 262,00. EDIT: I just had to. I don't intend to start another price difference discussion!

I really like that Ford, especially with those whitewall tyres!

You're churning out some really impressive designs here. I continue to be amazed!

I'm giving this a nudge just to add what might be an interesting fact: I'll be going to the LEGO Fan Weekend in Skærbæk, Denmark the last weekend in September. So if you're interested in any of these sets and are going to Skærbæk, or know somebody who's going, I can bring the sets to Denmark - that way you'll avoid shipping costs and any customs fees. All of the sets in the above post are still for sale, with the same opportunities for discounts if you buy several sets. To make things a bit easier for you, here are small thumbnails of all the sets that are still for sale (taken from this folder, where you can find bigger images of them all): I repeat: Although there are pieces that are clearly missing in the images, they have been replaced after I took the pictures. EDIT: First post updated with sold sets.

This is really nice. I've been thinking the same as you, wanting to build something like this from this set - although I've been considering 48x32, keeping the manor as a free-standing house in a row of modulars. It's inspiring to see the house being transformed into something less monstrous :)

This is a really nice diorama - especially the houses. I'm a bit alarmed by the fact that none of the people waiting for the subway seem to mind the skeleton, though...

I didn't understand the post either, until I read this (and the following posts). That clears things up a bit.

If I'm not too badly mistaken, it's this thing here. They're sold by FireStar Toys, but I can't remember who makes them.

All the basketball minifigs had arms like these. They were, as has been pointed out, longer so that the minifig could "hold" the basketball and fire it into the hoop. The arm and the hand is one mold, so the hand can't be twisted or pulled out. Here's a list of all the basketball minifigs (there's a lot of them).

Here's an instant correction: That's not a Commodore logo. It's the logo of the Norwegian ferry company Color Line, and that minifigure is from set 2149, Color Line Container Lorry. It's got nothing to do with Commodore whatsoever. --- Color Line logo --- Commodore logo

This is a very interesting topic to follow, and I'm very keen to see how you'll solve the roof, it's always the part I'm struggling the most with on my modulars. Your design skills are very good, and as you say you've improved as you've gone along. Some of the details are fabulous, like the tooth signs. The colour choices are also good, but you'll get a reality check on a few of them if you try to order the pieces to build this. For example, the doors you've used on the dentist's floor don't exist in green, only in white (rare) and transparent colours. So there's a job to be done. But finish the roof first! :) Oh, and I'd go for a subtle karate sign. In my opinion, it seems nice to have a huge sign on the roof for something that is not the main business in the building. But that's just my view on it.

I quite like this! As far as I can tell, it's pretty realistic with its rather skinny look and its squared-off rear. The use of the clip tiles is inventive and the front suspension is nice. I'll be looking forward to more from you!

I have been given one title, which I'm quite pleased with: Awesome Sport! Given to me because I said that I didn't mind getting no votes in the Maersk Madness competition, because the winners were the best entries anyway and I had fun participating.

Oh, I definitely don't think they're boring! On the contrary, they're a veritable well of nice building techniques and tiny details that are most inspiring to study. It's just that after seeing five or six of them, you tend to run out of superlatives ;)

Wow, another stunning example of modular building from you. I think this just might be your best one yet - the shape, the detailing, the colours... it's all great. I'm going to have a closer look over on Flickr later for the close-ups! Well done. You sure know how to do your stuff.

Looks great, as all your others. Looking forward to Skærbæk! PS: It's interesting that the English spelling is indeed Týr, with the accent. That's borrowed from the Icelandic/Faroese spelling. In Norway, he's called Ty, and in Denmark and Sweden Tyr - without the accent.

All sets are more expensive in Denmark than in Germany, so I wouldn't get my hopes up if I were you...

I haven't built any of those 16-wides, but I have built his modular City Hospital, which is quite impressive. Take it from me, he's a very good builder. I'd recommend his instructions any day.

Yes, very nice! I can understand that it's hard to keep up when the series are released so quickly, but you've really found your niche here. My favourites are the mechanic and the butcher, but the surgeon and the genie are very nice as well. Looking forward to inspecting these closely in a month or so :)

What an amazing build! The scale is huge, the colours are spot-on, and those interior examples... well, it's all so crisp and clean, beautiful Lego design. My favourite part is probably the way you've built the glass balconies :)

Meep meep indeed! This would look good on any shelf. I'm impressed by how well you managed to translate this into Lego.

In that first picture, it really is instantly recognisable! Well done.

I'll provide a quick translation, so you won't have to resort to Google: LEGO BUILDER ON THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION (ISS) Space station repaired by using Lego LEGO-FIX: Here's a way to use Lego on a space station. Photo: Don Pettit/NASA The American astronaut Don Pettit writes on his Google+ page that he has repaired a valve in the space station's CO2 cleaning system by using Lego. "I used some of the space station's Lego to keep the parts of the valve together in the right order while I did the repair," writes Pettit. In a picture from the space station, shown above, you can se some sort of Lego tool mounted to the wall with duct tape. The International Space Station (ISS) is a science project lasting for several years, which has been orbiting the Earth at a distance of approximately 400 kilometres since the year 2000. ASTRONAUT: The experienced engineer has been on board the ISS since December 2011. Photo: NASA In 2010, NASA and Lego started cooperating to increase the interest for mathematics and natural science among school children. While astronauts build Lego on the space station, school children visiting the Kennedy Space Center in Florida get the opportunity to build futuristic models of space ships. One small step for humanity - a giant leap for Lego builders!
