So after getting an official Ecto-1 and Ghostbusters set made by Lego I decided to expand on it a bit with the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man

Awesome, the more I see your work, the more I want a lego Ghostbusters video game :)
|
how do you actually "make" these lego things.
is it existing lego pieces you put together to design your theme? or is it 3D design software or something and you submit the image and concept? |
Just checked out Lego Digital Designer, man it's addictive. Been on it for an hour and a half . Haven't even made anything :/
Though I've just realized that not all the pieces are available as I was attempting to see if I could create the current "City" car I got for my nephew but alas it didn't have a chassis. But yea half the fun (as in real Lego) is finding what you can do with the bricks. Here's what Ive come up with so far, just realized though due to the wheels requiring space (which the chassis part does) so I have to get more creative :P http://cloud.screenpresso.com/DEplf/2014-04-19_15h23_04.png |
Too many Lord Business's in this thread.

This shows some potential towards a video game equivalent. Sweet.
|
I miss my childhood, watching the ghostbuster.. love that ecto1..
|
I miss my childhood too. But why did you think it was cool to revive a 3 month old thread? You must have gone out of your way to do this.
|

those wings on the caddilac don't look as good as on your original build. was that something they changed in their revision because of part cost or didn't specify?
|
i just want to know what the royalty cheques are adding up too
|
They changed the fins and numerous other parts due to their building standards and piece availability and budget.
You can get it from Mr Toys, Myer and David Jones, if you can still find it. I've been buying them and selling them on at cost signed to people too, I don't make anything from that directly though |
What's the extra cost Wet?
PM me; I'd like to nab one. Also, I'm in the market for a number of minifigs as a gift for a friend; would bricklink the best bet to headhunt specific minifigs? |
Yeah bricklink is your best bet, depending on what you're after though I may have some spare, I don't have a lot though
hit me up at wetwired@gmail.com if you're keen for some ghostbusters, they're retail cost $70 |
Well here is a photo of the box

I'd never heard of bricklink before. Any tips using it to buy second hand sets (I can't buy new sets there can I?)
Any other good online shops for buying Lego? My son's four now and loves building CITY lego trucks and planes and boats etc and building it all with him makes me want to add to my small star wards collection. |
nice herbal!
Bricklink is a pain in the arse to use, it's very hard to navigate and find what you want without know the piece or set codes and then you have each individual store operating under different rules You best bet if you don't know the numbers is to browse the catalogue tab, browse by the type of set it is (star wars etc) and find the code, then do an advanced search and search for the code and condition you're after and restrict the results to only stores that ship to AU |
