Zeto Vince Tumbler

ZetoVince recently introduced a Tumbler MOC (I told you about it here) really successful. Since then, this MOC has been emulated by many (see here the version of CAB & Tiler), who have tried to reproduce it, and even improve it on certain points.

In response to a growing demand for assembly instructions for this MOC, ZetoVince has offered on its Brickshlef gallery a series of files to reproduce this vehicle without too many problems.

I have compiled these files in pdf format, and I offer them for download directly on Brick Heroes: zetovince_tumbler.pdf (4.84 MB).

If you do not yet know this MOC, go to Zetovince's flickr gallery, to find out. I promise you that you will then want to assemble your own Tumbler following the instructions for this template ...

7958 LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar

The box of the day raises the level with this Y-Wing very well done and which in 20 pieces manages to be credible. 

We will retain the use of 2 lightsaber handles, and 2 cheese slopes 1x1 which are enough to give allure to this micro vessel. The colors are respected, everything is consistent.  

This Y-Wing mini-microphone will undoubtedly not stay long in the collective memory, but for a box and a day, it is already very good ... What more could you ask for?

For the record, if you have the following sets in your collection:

4488 Millennium Falcon (2003)
4489 AT-AT (2003)
4490 Republic Gunship (2003)
4491 MTT (2003)

Note that these four sets provide additional parts that allow you to assemble this very successful mini Y-Wing:

Anakin & Padme by TomSolo93
A little freshness and poetry with this pretty MOC from TomSolo93.

This scene is loosely inspired by a cut scene of the'Episode II: Attack Of The Clones in which Anakin Skywalker and Padme Amidala visit her parents on Naboo.

We find the peaceful atmosphere of Theed, capital of Naboo, with its quiet alleys with beige (Tan) walls where vegetation roams the walls. We will pass on the minifig representing Padme, difficult indeed to produce one currently, while waiting for a Queen Amidala in full dress promised in set 9499 from the Star Wars 2012 range.

To see more, visit TomSolo93's flickr gallery, a young MOCeur with a future.

Star Wars Bantha by BaronSat

If you do not know this MOC, this is a good opportunity to find out. If you already know it, go and support it on Cuusoo.

Indeed, BaronSat discovered that his MOC had been posted by someone other than himself as a Cuusoo project.

Suddenly, he decided to create a project himself for this sympathetic MOC, and which is one of the few reproducing this creature from Tatooine and ridden by the Between Raiders.

For the record, the creature used in the film is actually an elephant decked out in a costume ...

I said so, support the BaronSat project, he deserves it, even if objectively, and in view of the functioning of Cuusoo, this project will probably never see the light of day as a commercialized set.

LEGO Super Heroes - 6860 The Batcave

While the rest of the range is already available across the Atlantic, the set 6860 The Batcave is always prayed for.

But if you have the cash, you can get it right now for the low price of $ 499.99 from this merchant, who illustrates his announcement with a very real photo of the box, thus assuring potential buyers that he has this set in his possession.

The price is of course prohibitive, but I'm sure that this set will find a buyer quickly ...
