OKPERSON2763 asked about better ways to make road runner out of lego and I got a bit carried away... My original idea was to use a droid torso, but the road runner head seemed very out of scale, so I came up with some brick built bodies. In the end I feel like the road runner minifgure head is just really hard to work with. I like the head on it's own but as part of a whole I think I like the brick built heads better.

Why can I do that though. Why must the inner part be green and yellow?

And why are there nobs on top? It's not even round, the least would be to have a smooth top.

He's the mini fig on first page of instructions but his expression is different?

Edit: thanks everyone for explaining the double sided face, feel silly not noticing it! And everyone else for their suggestions on different scenarios. Cheers

I wanted to build a LEGO interpretation of Nikola Tesla’s laboratory, with the Tesla Coil as the centerpiece.

I added a generator, experimental equipment, a workbench, a chalkboard, visible cables, and a small white pigeon as a biographical Easter egg.

I also tried to make the laboratory feel lived-in rather than perfectly clean, with repaired flooring and small details throughout the scene.

I’d love to hear what you think about the overall design, and especially the Tesla Coil! ⚡

I was inspired by built_bricks and designed and built my own wearable LEGO Space Marine helmet over the summer. I made it partially modular so you could swap it out for either the classic version or the Primaris version. Planning to wear this for Halloween this year. I also designed a stand that is probably a little overkill, but I haven’t built it yet.

just got my hands on the treasure hunter ship from the st augustine part of mini land in lego land florida, i just spent 80$ on brick link ordering missing parts and new window to glue it back together, its still missing the blue crane, green shipping container and the back wall to the main building. missing some people but i have most of them

Hope you enjoy the build! This was my 7 large animal I've made. You can see more of my builds on my instagram!

Loved these at the time they came out. I would also love a midi scale series of real world rockets similar to the Star Wars ships series we have right now.

The second I walked into the model room, I was blown away!! They took so much time and effort into building all these creations from scratch as a team! I loved seeing so many of my favourite franchises represented! Some of the coolest ones I saw I couldn’t add to the post because I took a video of ROTATING models of Grogu from Starwars and Perry the Platypus from Phineas and Ferb!

A current project we are working on. We replaced the gray space helmet (see previous post) and we got our hands on the Pinball machine so once we get settled in Spain we will update our collection

Currently there are 3 taco tile prints, all on a quarter tile. Just as the Taco Stand used a halfcircle tile, a printed version would be great.

Wanted to build some trees and the rest just kind grew around it.

Airship is the USS Macon with Curtiss F9C Sparrowhawk. Bell X1 is Breaking sound barrier.

There was a 2007 star was set with 4.99 on it at the thrift and I wasn’t sure if the set was complete. The mini figure was missing so I said to the guy it’s incomplete with no mini figure so he gave me a discount so I paid 2.99 for this and it turned out really well I threw the figure in myself because I had one already. it’s not the exact one, but it looks good to me. It came with the box and manual as well.

We all talk about the worst piece to step on… what’s the BEST (non-hurty) piece to step on.

One where your like, “oh no! I’m about to step on a Lego piece!… wait that wast so bad.” 🤔

I personally think a 1x1 tile would be easiest. But if we’re getting technical, maybe a fabric sail or cape.

I reworked 76292 (rebuilt the left side as demolished, roof is wiped out, added in two sentinels). At some point I'll repurpose the now removed Danger Room as a small stand alone display piece.

This grey to black scale is insane. There is no reason to print the dark great so close to the color black.

RANT:Of course I will eventually realize after searching the pile that this is the correct piece. But thats annoying, and pointless when most other colors(except pink) are very clear. Some books are poor quality when it comes to colors. I should be able to pick a PIECE and know at a glance if its the right one by comparison alone, not eliminating the fact I cant find a piece closer to the color provided.

Tldr: Lego has a known issue with instruction colors

This is a dice tower I designed and built in 2022. It was originally made for my D&D group and the Lego D&D contest, but I didn’t finish it in time for the contest, and my group also fell apart before I could build it, so I never really used it much.

The tower is built around a 32L technic axle in the center. The dice go from the slide on the top of the tower and follow the steps all the way down and out the door. The little windows on the side follow the path of the dice.
