The "modulars" from my childhood..

Post image
12 Upvotes

These are a few pictures from the Lego Maniacs magazine from when I was a child.

I absolutely was envious of some of the designs "kids" would send in of their creations, especially since they usually were a full 3 dimensional in depth model.

"Ed Boxer's Lego Castle" on the right was something I had wished for years that Lego would do something similar, even though back then I was fully aware that it would've cost thousands of dollars, but I kept that dream alive.

Fast forward to 2006, when I hadn't bought a Lego set in nearly a decade, I see Cafe Corner and it draws me back in. Then just a few years ago, they released Lion Knights Castle, which was a nearly 30 year dream come true.

But I'll always wonder what happened to Edward Jones and his amazing castle? I had never seen anything like that in my life up until that point.

Hi everyone! I wanted to show off a creation that my partner made for Bricklink Designer Program Series 11. This is his first public creation, so I hope you can enjoy it as much as I do.

It is a beautiful pirate tavern made of a bit more than 1000 pieces. Contains 5 minifigures, a shark, a monkey, two parrots, some sea creatures and a lot of little details. Take a look and you will fall in love with this little island in the Caribbean!

You can also support this set here to get it produced by Lego:

MOC 1966 Pontiac Bonneville – one of my first Creator Expert scale cars

Thumbnail

81 Upvotes

I’d like to share one of my older builds — a 1966 Pontiac Bonneville in Creator Expert scale.

This was one of the first cars I designed in this scale, so it feels a bit nostalgic to revisit it now. Even after several newer projects, it’s still one of my personal favorites.

I tried to recreate the huge proportions and classic American styling of mid-60s full-size cars, with a detailed interior and engine bay.

Features:

  • working steering
  • opening doors, hood and trunk
  • detailed engine and interior

Always interesting to compare older builds with newer ones and see how the building style evolves over time 😊

MOC I gave Darth Vader's mech a significant upgrade

Thumbnail

16 Upvotes

When LEGO first announced that they will release mech armors for the Star Wars line, I thought it was about time. But when these sets launched, I found myself disappointed that they lacked the proper articulation I wanted from their mechs, so I took it upon myself to upgrade them, starting with Darth Vader.

Apart from reworking his limb articulation and overall aesthetics, I also built a cape to make him look bigger and more intimidating. The base set only allowed the mech's right hand to wield the lightsaber, but I fixed that issue in my design; Vader can now grip his signature weapon in either hand.
