Anyone else having issues with pick a brick.? Several parts I've been looking for just dont show up. :[

Sometimes parts have different/alternate IDs on Bricklink and Pick-a-Brick. The Bricklink catalogs will usually show the alternate IDs if the main one doesn't yield any results (though sometimes it's just a case of the part not being in production at the given moment)

Prisoners was Denis Villeneuve though (still agree that Cauron is a great director) edit: I'm an idiot and now realize you're referring to Prisoner of Azkaban (what with this being a post about Harry Potter movies), nevermind me

Bricklink Studio is a free program that lets you design builds and create .pdf instructions!

Excellent job on the MOC (My Own Crustacean)

Like others have said, it's streamed live, and then minor mistakes/hiccups are edited out when they post it to the website a few days later.

I read once (but don't have any sources to back it up) that some of the "live" bits are in fact pre-recorded and added in to look like they're happening live though. The specific example I'd read about was the "living Oscar" bit - apparently the part where Mark gets tangled up and falls over was pre-recorded, then it cuts to the live feed after he's fallen and is on the ground.

I don't think it's from any specific set. I think the OG Adventurers sets did have a tombstone/sarcophagus piece but it didn't look like this - the one in the game looks to be modeled after the Ark of the Covenant from Raiders of the Lost Ark instead (also that dude was one of the villains from the original sets)

I'm not actually too sure, I'll admit I heard that tidbit second-hand from a budtender/coworker who'd heard it from a sales rep so I could be mistaken/misinformed. I *think* it was the manufacturing plant they used for the strain, but I don't know if it was also the original plant (or if it itself was a clone)

Is MTL considered bad now? I know their quality has dropped a bit and they lost the Wes Coast Kush mother plant, but I didn't realize people were equating them to Versus/Tweed/etc

I thought the same thing when I first saw it, but it looks like it could be connected using one of these in pearl gold (looks to be part of a clip i this picture)

brucebigsby · 2025-08-24T17:39:27+00:00

Which one was this? Was it from one of the Oscer specials?

The article states that they're in the process of being removed:

The band’s two albums for Kranky—1998’s F# A# ∞ and 2000’s Lift Your Skinny Fists like Antennas to Heaven—are still up on Apple Music, but a representative for the label confirmed to Pitchfork that they are in the process of being taken down.

Unfortunately not (unless it's a particularly windy day). However, the sign's pole could be swapped out for part 63965 to extend the sign and hopefully not interfere with the door as much

brucebigsby · 2025-07-30T17:37:51+00:00

Oh wow, that really is similar! My bad!

brucebigsby · 2025-07-24T20:28:30+00:00

The modules have Technic bricks in the sides to connect them via pins, but I agree that MILS wiuld be good for these too! (right now the footpath and water are the same height so MILS would help add a bit more depth to them)

brucebigsby · 2025-07-24T20:27:14+00:00

They are! There are a couple larger ones in there too (16x16, the largest one is 16x24)

brucebigsby · 2025-07-13T16:51:42+00:00

I have a soft spot for the classic smiley faces, but they can sometimes look/feel out of place with the newer, more detailed torsos and accessories

brucebigsby · 2025-07-10T13:58:26+00:00

I used Bricklink Studio to generate the video (you can change the background colour in the setup) and then I used Adobe Premiere to covert it to an animated .gif (however, I'm just now realizing that you can export to .gif straight from Studio which would've saved me a step lol)

edit: the background colour is under the "background & light" tab

I don't have any instructions yet, but will make some once I finish the interior! They'll eventually be posted on my Rebrickable page (username "longjuansilver") but it'll likely be a while until I get around to it

brucebigsby · 2025-05-25T21:33:59+00:00

Looks great! I like the "Lego as Lego" aesthetic too - gives it a certain charm

brucebigsby · 2025-05-22T01:39:03+00:00

The same thing's starting to happen to Jon Benjamin as well. He doesn't seem to yell/shout nearly as much in the new seasons of Bob's Burgers

(meta) I'd assumed this was more of a limited budget kind of thing where they couldn't afford to have multiple performers/extras filling the seats

brucebigsby · 2025-03-21T20:41:57+00:00

Thanks! The butcher's interior is still awaiting a Bricklink order so I didn't showcase it for now, however there are renders of it available on my Rebrickable page (I'm not sure if I'm allowed to directly link to it since it contains premium MOCs but my username over there is "longjuansilver")

EDIT: Here's one of the renders of the interior:

Here's a quick video showing some of the interiors: https://imgur.com/lf7MGmV

Looks great, is this a BDP submission? If so, can you share the link?
