the Lego MegaThread - General

[QUOTE=vladnag;38047562]if you're willing to split it up i'll take all the brick arms stuff, can you get it all together so i can see what there is? also the Star Wars stuff also where are you? if you're in the US it may not be worth the P&P[/QUOTE] I can sell it like, only the people, or only the building stuff, or both, I hate to pick apart the bunch.

[QUOTE=RocketRacer;38018489]All the pieces from first ever Toa's to the final Bionicle sets. Also, I had a passion for Pirakas, so I had all six Pirakas(by all, I mean those which were sold in tubes). But later on I found out that there is a "Golden" Piraka...[/QUOTE] Why not the HF pieces with it? The Bionicle-style "hand" pieces are MUCH more better then the 2001-2010 "hand" pieces.

[QUOTE=YourFriendJoe;38040349]Make sure to take some pictures[/QUOTE] Was not able to locate the giant Lego cake, but I do have Inky from Pac-man on my Brick Badge.

Going to Legoland Billund tomorrow with my girlfriend, fock yeah! :] Already a few years ago since my last visit and she never was there, hope its still fun.

I wish I could go to Lego Land, I think its something to put on my bucket list. Anyone else here a fan of Lego Mindstorms? Or Technic? I still have my RIS 2.0 set plus the Lego Mindstorms Scout, still both fantastic sets. Great to program in NQC.

I haven't built anything in particular for years, I mainly use it for prototyping these days. I think the last thing I made was a steering wheel controller and a couple of pedals, using bits of an old joystick.

[QUOTE=Lukii;38058366]Going to Legoland Billund tomorrow with my girlfriend, fock yeah! :] Already a few years ago since my last visit and she never was there, hope its still fun.[/QUOTE] I'd love to visit Legoland again...I was in Legoland Windsor two years ago, and these were the best 6 hours that year.

I went to Legoland California back in '04. It was pretty cool, but the fact that Disney was on the itinerary as well lessened the effect. There was some neat stuff, but the lines were HORRIBLE. But this was almost 10 years ago, I think they've added more stuff since.

I went to Legoland Deutschland a few years back. Best time in Germany to date for me.

Went to Legoland Billund about 7 years ago, it was pretty kickass.

We had a damage sale at work today. Snagged two Star Wars sets that retail for around $350 together for $75. Plus tons of clothes for $2 and $80+ pounds of candy.

[QUOTE=Agoat;38107769]Snagged two Star Wars sets that retail for around $350 together for $75.[/QUOTE] Which ones exactly?

How were they damaged too?

I guess my childhood was pretty good considering I got to visit Legoland Billund AND I had a car city carpet. I think my parents still keeps all of my and my brother's Lego in the attic.

Just got "The Lego Ideas Book." Seems like a motherload of ideas to add on to my already awesome city.

[QUOTE=faze;38171620]Just got "The Lego Ideas Book." Seems like a motherload of ideas to add on to my already awesome city.[/QUOTE] Which book?

[QUOTE=Agoat;38040282]Legoland Florida (my place of employment) is having it's 1 year birthday tomorrow![/QUOTE] Hey I live like 20 minutes from there!

Is there an age at which Legos become unacceptable? Because if not, holy shit my life has new meaning. I didn't even notice this thread existed until a minute ago, and I'm so glad there's people my age who still have the urge to build with Legos.

Of course not, the majority of lego fansites are run by adults.

[QUOTE=faze;38171910]It's excellent. What do you want in a book?

As for the book, I was asking if it was any good because I too have a city that I would like to expand. If it's a bad book and too short, why would I have wanted it?

Please link any sites/forums related to Lego city building.

[QUOTE=faze;38171985]Never said it was too short or a bad book? Was just asking what you want in a book. Please link any sites/forums related to Lego city building.[/QUOTE] Wow you too? I've been trying to find active lego forums about city building but the most active forums I can find are brikwars and they only focus on minifigure battles. I feel my lego city has become bland and I need new ideas.

I added you on Steam. Feel free to message me whenever about this.

I love some of the stop motions that people make: [video=youtube;qIuxiwhUGz4]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIuxiwhUGz4[/video]

Oh man, I really need to reassemble the 6 original Toa. I still have the canisters they came in as well. [editline]26th October 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=RocketRacer;38031169][B]ha.[/B] [IMG]http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20061015185743/bionicle/images/b/b2/Takanuva_and_Ussanui.jpg[/IMG] I remember a funny thing happened on Christmas once: my dad and grandma bought me presents, Lego Bionicles. Thay both bought me Makuta, so my dad exchanged him for two-little-guys-on-a-big-bird(they were in same theme as Takanuva). I fucking loved Makuta, he is epic. Now I remember that Lego then released "new" Makuta, which I didn't liked at all. Also, am I the only one in this thread who has Bionicle Movie Trilogy on DVDs?[/QUOTE] Oh my god. I just remembered how happy I was when I got that set for my birthday in 2004.
