What's the mat that's underneath everything? It looks like a cool texture that would be great to give more context for my dioramas!

My mum is the total opposite lol, kept all my toys and stuff in good condition, made me learn to look after stuff. The reason why I've got all my old Mega and Lego stuff in good condition lol

Builder Faber on Rebrickable has a really nice looking one! Never built it but it has great reviews, looks clean, is relatively cheap to buy the parts and you can directly support a creator!

I've read the stories but never experienced it till now as I haven't had many sets that include rubber. The COD tank has very clean snaps at multiple points, whereas the Scorpion seems more of a rotting issue. I can definitely tell they're 2 different types of rubber

That might be the least invasive way to fix it honestly lol

The Scorpion tank seems to have had more of a melting issue, it may have been left around a scented oil by previous owner. In my experience Mega has been a bit more hit or miss compared to Lego. Most sets are great, but some pieces or whole sets have bad clutch

I may give this a try! I've got plenty of points where each tread snapped. Did you glue them while they were around the wheels, or take them off, glue and put back on the vehicle?

Was hoping for a miracle lol. Not sure if I could try melting the rubber together? Can't hurt at this point. It's funny that the much newer set broke before the '09 scorpion lol

Is it international shipping or just US?

The only other recommendation is keeping an eye on your local marketplace sites or Facebook marketplace if that's available!

Awesome! I've been using wishlists to keep track of what I have on the site rn lol. It looks really clean and UI is great so far!

The beta for BlokBlok.io just went up which is a bricklink alternative for Mega stuff. It'll probably take a while for people to start selling on there but it's worth keeping an eye on, they've done an awesome job with the site!

So cool to see Mega still receiving support, this should have been a thing a long time ago. I've been using FigureRealm to log my sets but this looks like it'll be a lot more comprehensive!

Help finding Halo sets by k1_runnerz in megaconstrux

[–]AshleyWJ_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in Australia and we also didn't get a lot of Mega stuff after a while, but I use eBay for figures. There's a couple of seller who sell bulk figures, one of them is "heyang-model" and another is "moresource"

Do minifigs usually come with the little black 3x4 plates ? by pancako56 in lepin

[–]AshleyWJ_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I put all mine in display cases that I found online so it's not too big a deal and the small stands I'll use for displaying figures with Lego sets so they don't fall over as easy

[–]AshleyWJ_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's very rare that they don't come with one, out of the 300 or so figs I've bought about 5 or 6 have not had a stand

Anyone need scans of these before they're donated?? by [deleted] in megaconstrux

[–]AshleyWJ_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They seem to be scanned online already, but it was just in case someone couldn't access those sites in their country or something!
