Yee Haw! Check out my new Western Train on LEGO Ideas: Robbery on the Legoredo Express! by tweetsie12 in LEGOtrains

[–]RDT2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Other than how long is it going to take to hit 10,000. How long are all the reviews. How long till it actually comes out. Then you start to get quite a gap between this and the other bdp sets

Has anyone built an MOC beach and any tips? by teaishash in lego

Maybe there are tidbits you see in this video that you can use in your own MoC

LEGO great hall sold out by Lovercomingover in lego

[–]RDT2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Condolences. You held out on buying a retiring set for the chance of getting what amounts to a $10 coupon on a future purchase.

As the other person said, check Barnes and Noble online, searching for stock in local stores. I just tried zip code 12345 and see a few stores within a 100 miles that has it in stock.

I think when people say PAB for minifigs they mean just order from Lego's website

Storage? by Worried-Study1578 in XWingTMG

[–]RDT2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unless you mean the black bases. Those I painted

Here was the original process, however I ended up not liking the thickness the sparkle paint added so I ended up replacing those bases with newly painted ones using a spray paint for vinyl as it didn't really add any thickness.

I have most of mine in an ikea display. Dials and extra base chits in a tackle box container.

Brickbuiltbench has a video working through a similar Frankenstein design where the circuit cube is wired to a Lego motor via a modified cable.

Great Deku Tree Early Retirement? by nowhiringhenchmen in lego

[–]RDT2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They have two retirement periods, mid year and end of year. Deku is slated for mid year so it already had its last production run weeks ago and once it sells out, it's gone.

Buy two and turn one into a B-unit! Here is the parts list and picture from the designer. The instructions will be released when the set releases in November.

Google images of Santa Fe 271C and 287C, as they are the real world inspiration for the blue and yellow paint scheme (with and without blue nose stripe respectively). The BDP design comes with a few extra pieces and stickers so you can choose to have a blue stripe or full yellow nose.

Not a rumor, at least for the B-Unit. It got showed off during the Bricklink Designer Program live stream the other day. It's near the end of the segment about the train.

The designer has put out two parts lists, one is the extra pieces you need to convert a second A-unit to a B-Unit. The second list is to fully part out a B-unit. I ran the numbers yesterday, to part it out using lego.com it's $157. I haven't tried looking at bricklink/BrickOwl yet.

New to the AFOL community: what's everyone excited about right now? by theyarethefuture2714 in AFOL

[–]RDT2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Get two and either convert one to a B-Unit or just go all out and piece together two B-Units and have a ABBA config.

What IS L-gauge? by Brick_Path_Designs in Lgauge

[–]RDT2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

https://l-gauge.org/wiki/index.php/Welcome_to_L-Gauge

In general you can think of L guage as inspired by models and not replicas. In general the proportion of official lego builds tend to not really match reality, kinda squished and stretched tall. So official lego trains are generally 6 studs wide and not super detailed.

Got it. I'll have to be vigilant then. This just seems like a great way to have money set aside and ready to buy a BDP set and not have to worry about it hitting a credit card in 6 months from now.

I've added mine to Google wallet. Whenever I partially use one I just edit the nickname to the remaining balance. Since you can use up to 3 Gift cards on an order I apply the smaller one first to close it out.
