[QUOTE=vladnag;34726438]i was also hoping it would be a lego mineCraft licence, not just 1 set[/QUOTE] From the description: [quote]Build your own mines and hills, [B]and expand your world with multiple sets[/B].[/quote] Seems to me like this is a test set and if it's successful they've the intention of making more.
[QUOTE=Ray-The-Sun;34726494]From the description: Seems to me like this is a test set and if it's successful they've the intention of making more.[/QUOTE] it may mean "buy many of this set and add them on" but hopefully we will be getting more MineCraft themed sets, maybe a battlepack like they have with StarWars, 1 Steve, 1 Creeper and 2 Zombies

I can bankrupt myself making LegoCraft. $35 a set hardly makes it modular.

I just think they need to rethink the price, I don't see any reason why this set is worth more than any other when it includes two custom micro figures and nothing else of notable interest.
[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;34726764]Oh cool. I can bankrupt myself making LegoCraft. $35 a set hardly makes it modular.[/QUOTE] Hate to say it, but the price seems about right for a 480 piece set.
[QUOTE=Ray-The-Sun;34726805]Hate to say it, but the price seems about right for a 480 piece set.[/QUOTE] I have a hard time with accepting that though. It's only a 480 piece set purely because they used the smallest possible block (The 1x1 flat piece) and a single Minecraft block is made of two or three of them meaning there HAS to be a couple hundred to make anything. There isn't anything notable to it. No play value, not a HUGE amount of display value, two custom micro-figs and that's it. No stickers, no decals, no other custom blocks.
I'm more a technic guy. I sold off all my standard lego years ago, but I've still got all my technic. I always was more interested in function rather than aesthetics. My collection takes up two largish toolchests, all sorted using my own OCD-like system. Wait, what's that 16-tooth gear doing in the section for the all the 24-tooth gears? What if there are other pieces in the wrong sections!? I'll have to check it all now.
Dumping a bit of pictures from my LEGO collection. Also I have that bridge. Excuse the phone quality and the amazing mess, had a Dutch guy here and he wanted to see ALL of it.

I'm in Phoenix and therefore about 20 minutes away from an official LEGO store. Is it wrong I haven't been there yet? I've only been in Phoenix for about six months :c
[QUOTE=ewitwins;34737973]I'm in Phoenix and therefore about 20 minutes away from an official LEGO store. Is it wrong I haven't been there yet? I've only been in Phoenix for about six months :c[/QUOTE] It's wrong! go visit it before you step on a LEGO brick! In all seriousness, I visit the official one in Copenhagen, Denmark quite frequently. It's pretty close to Billund so they never really run out and there's basically every LEGO set there, even though they've been discounted for years. It's amazing to live in the country of LEGO. :v:
I'm going to Copenhagen on Sunday, where is it? :smile:
I vaguely remember an LEGO program/vidya in which you could build shit. Sadly it's the only way for me to play LEGO.
LEGO Creator or LEGO Factory/LEGO Digital Designer

I just found lego creator again, such a fun game. Would I be banned if I posted a dropbox link to it? I mean i first got it out of a cereal box so it should be fine right?

[QUOTE=PepaQuin] [img]http://uppix.net/5/f/b/fe771cd727a8ca41c418c64752500.jpg[/img] I built this years ago and I've gotten a lot of positive responses from it. [img]http://uppix.net/1/0/6/9ab6ec90abbedcbb12134bceeeffa.jpg[/img] The fish is roughly 2 feet long and puts it in the range of 'minifig scale'. Two supports are needed to hold it up to give the appearance of 'swimming'. The fins and legs are fully articulated. [img]http://uppix.net/9/5/a/44434234ab0618c6f01e78759cc5c.jpg[/img] The mouth can also open and close, but the tongue needs to be taken out first. [img]http://uppix.net/3/7/8/022225122aa67eab4584bfed3e4cd.jpg[/img] Here it is with my custom built Bongo submarine for size comparison. The submarine is not a part of this Cuusoo idea (because LEGO has already produced two of these).
