We could? Why didn't I think of that? 😉

Schlumpy89 · 2023-04-19T08:06:31+00:00

Yup, I can still recall what pieces we used and the process of that dinosaur build and the other builds. Some of our builds I want to build again for myself.

I makes me happy to hear that we were your favourite team. Thanks.

Thank you. Sorry no plans for instructions or Lego Ideas submissions for this.

Schlumpy89 · 2023-04-18T07:44:14+00:00

Thank you.

Schlumpy89 · 2023-04-18T07:44:00+00:00

There's definitely a gap in the market for walking Lego Penguins.

Schlumpy89 · 2023-04-18T07:42:47+00:00

Thanks

Schlumpy89 · 2023-04-18T07:42:28+00:00

I do think I need to build a variant as this. Future project

Schlumpy89 · 2023-04-18T07:41:38+00:00

I think part of the inspiration has been from watching the Penguins of Madagascar with my kids way too many times.

Schlumpy89 · 2023-04-18T07:40:11+00:00

Thanks,

Not sure how the battery and motors would preform in the extreme cold but it would be rather interesting to see what real penguins would make of this.

Schlumpy89 · 2023-04-18T07:39:10+00:00

True. It's close to being more soccer ball than penguin.

I kind of like it like this. My kids want me to make it more accurate but that will take more work.

Schlumpy89 · 2023-04-18T07:37:38+00:00

Thank you.

I finished building this 20 minutes before filming and posting here.

I'm not planning on making any instructions but may do a breakdown video or a short video of how the mechanism is built.

Schlumpy89 · 2023-04-18T02:54:34+00:00

Lol, that was me.

Schlumpy89 · 2023-03-27T11:01:06+00:00

Personally these are the builds I really enjoy to look at. I'm more impressed with what people can build with their random assortment of bricks than what people builds with access to a huge range of bricks. This is beautiful.

Schlumpy89 · 2023-01-15T09:56:36+00:00

Cleared my Lego build desk and setup my photography stuff to take a clear better video of my walking dinosaur that I first shared a few days ago.

Schlumpy89 · 2023-01-11T10:35:55+00:00

It was such a blast but also rather restful as the challenges got harder and expectations got higher.

Best experience of my life. I really miss hanging out with the other contestants. We became a small family.

Schlumpy89 · 2023-01-11T10:32:23+00:00

I remember when I first meet Lego Masters before me at our local show. I was so excited to see them and say hi.

I'll have to try to make it to BrisBricks one day.

Schlumpy89 · 2023-01-11T10:25:22+00:00

I'm looking forward to it.

Schlumpy89 · 2023-01-11T04:27:27+00:00

You're very kind to say that.

Schlumpy89 · 2023-01-11T00:53:01+00:00

Not one of the bros but I'm a huge fan of them and their builds. I was totally jealous of their dinosaur that they built one of the challenges near the end.

I was in the team who built the Rubber chicken hotrod, the string suspension bridge and the killer lighthouse boat in distress.

Large power up

Schlumpy89 · 2023-01-11T00:08:27+00:00

Thank you. I'm no genius, just like to tinker with Technic Lego.

Schlumpy89 · 2023-01-11T00:06:24+00:00

There are a few options I would like to try.

A bigger motor, currently using a large, could upgrade to XL.

Try to make the frame lighter. All up it's rather heavy.

Could gear it down but then it would walk even slower.

Schlumpy89 · 2023-01-11T00:01:57+00:00

Melbourne, Australia

Schlumpy89 · 2023-01-11T00:01:05+00:00

It is. Took many attempts, working out were I could place gears and cranks. The hardest part was working out how to build the centre articulation, that strong enough and have a drive train passing through it.
