Re: The List: Good Citizens and Stock Dwellers

Another +1 for bronx, and apologies for responding so late.

Despite being in a separate time zone and with limited internet access, he stayed in touch, communicated very well, and we worked out a nice trade that I think left us both feeling very happy.

Re: Weekly Set Review: Black Falcon's Fortress

Aesthetically it was very interesting when it first came out, but if it had been released a little later the parts available by then could have made it better. Like the first BF castle, it's a little small, but that also means it was cheaper. I'd love to see Lego release a new castle in the spirit o...

I have a question- are these (still) available in Norway? I have family there, and wondered if it makes sense to ask them to try to pick one up for me before Xmas.

Thanks

I built a floor to sit inside my sem-circular tower by building it as one big SNOT section, just once brick wide. If you use slopes and inverse slopes you can get a floor that goes pretty close to the walls.

Motorized gunship

What do you get if you cross an A-10 with an Apache helicopter? I've finished my newest MOC for the Central Brick Union, with which I've continued to explore the use of motors and Technic elements in minifig-scale creations. The Dragon is an anti-armor gunship helicopter, with motorized rotors and a...

LEGO Military Building Competition

Long after the Black Falcons and Crusaders lay down their swords and shields, minifigs will continue to live in a TLG-unapproved-yet-tolerated state of open conflict! The Flickr LEGO Military Group is excited and proud to announce its first Military Building Competition. This is the ideal time for a...

Great MOC, although you might want check the title.

Or is that part of an in-joke that I just didn't get?

I also think of the classic Castle factions as two battling factions without a VERY clear good or bad side. The Black Falcons were sometimes presented as the de factor baddies in the English LEGO magazine Bricks n Pieces back in the 80s (they are lead by the "Black Knight," of course 6 yea...

Late medieval - there's gunpowder, but no magic, or fantasy elements.

Lion

Here's another I just finished;) The Lion is a self-propelled artillery piece. It has a secondary, but adequate direct fire anti-tank capability, but is mainly designed to fire a barrage of indirect fire at enemy forces from afar. It carries a crew of four and is based on an improved Jaguar MBT chas...
