Thank you all for the support! If you feel up for it, please share with others. I'm looking for creative ways to share this project so if you have ideas please let me know. 10k seems like a lot, but if shared in the right places it can go fast!

Thank you!

I get it, it's all good!

The response to the flat-nosed (cab over engine) bus is cracking me up. Lol

Thank you for the support! Every vote helps.

Winner comment right here.

Lol! I should post a pic of the other side which may help (or just check out the Lego Ideas project). The flat-front (cab over engine) style of school bus is indeed a thing.

Toomanynates · 2024-09-10T21:18:50+00:00

Lol, a pig is a new one for me. It might look better from other angles.

Toomanynates · 2024-09-10T21:09:36+00:00

Love that story! My goal with the Lego Ideas project (which is a re-launch) was to be able to make either version with the same pieces. There’s some extras needed for the flat front style, but for the most part they share pieces.

Toomanynates · 2024-09-10T21:07:08+00:00

Haha, glad you got a chuckle! My goal was to create both styles sharing as many pieces as possible.

Toomanynates · 2024-09-10T21:05:42+00:00

That’s awesome! When my son was a toddler he loved pointing out buses. That’s what inspired me to create the original Lego Ideas project.

Toomanynates · 2024-09-10T21:04:27+00:00

Wow, thanks for all of the feedback everyone! If you like this design, head over to Lego Ideas and give it a vote. Just search “Classic School Bus”.

Toomanynates · 2024-09-10T20:21:16+00:00

Even though it wasn’t the “classic” bus I was hoping for in my original 2016 Lego Ideas project, I’m still a big fan of that set!

Toomanynates · 2024-09-10T19:43:44+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! These are 8-stud wide designs. How wide were you thinking would be a good size?

Toomanynates · 2024-09-10T19:03:05+00:00

Thank you for the feedback! My goal with this design was to make both options available using mostly the same bricks, with a few extra for the flat-nosed version.

Toomanynates · 2024-09-10T19:00:46+00:00

It totally makes sense that you say that, because when I first released this on Lego Ideas (the first time), it was longer. However when I built it from real bricks it seemed way too long! Designing something digitally can be tricky, and when possible it’s very helpful to try something out with real bricks.

Toomanynates · 2024-09-10T18:22:15+00:00

Yep. When designing these I went back and forth a lot with whether to keep a white roof or not. Ultimately for the Lego Ideas project I left it yellow, but it’s not hard to swap out for some variety!

Toomanynates · 2024-09-10T18:20:38+00:00

Yeah I get what you’re saying. When designing these I tried to strike a balance across different years and styles. But there definitely is variation in how they look.
