One of the attractions of Brickfair 2012, an event that just took place at the beginning of August in the USA, was undoubtedly this reconstruction of Rivendell (FondCombe by us), a valley that is difficult to access where the elves live (have Elrond) and that we see notably in the Peter Jackson trilogy.
At the origin of this creation, Blake Baer, better known under the nickname of Blake's Baericks, a young 16-year-old MOCeur full of talent and who seems to have a bright future at LEGO if I believe my little finger. I have already presented several of his creations to you on this blog.
You can see more on this diorama on flickr and discover the work of this MOCeur on his flickr gallery, its MOCpages space ou his Brickshelf gallery.
In order to celebrate its 80th birthday with dignity by sharing this event with all its client-fans (note the touch of irony in this sentence), LEGO offers us a small animated film that will at least have the merit of avoiding all those who do not yet know the history of the brick to avoid spending hours on Wikipedia to return to the sources of the mark at the studs.
17 minutes for 80 years, with a few shortcuts and a few omissions, but the essentials are there.
Finally, the only one who gave us a gift on this 80th anniversary of the birth of the LEGO company is again _Tile who removes a huge thorn in our side by offering us the list of parts with their references to reproduce his now essential Tumbler.
Cherry on the cake, it also provides the list of parts to reproduce the Tumbler in camouflage version.
After spending too many hours trying to compile the same list according to the original instructions, I am relieved to have access to this inventory created directly by MOCeur and I am extremely grateful to them.
So to summarize, you download the file in question in pdf format (Tiler Tumbler instructions) which still weighs 18 MB and in which I have just integrated the two lists of parts, you eventually take out of your bulk those you have, you order the rest on Bricklink and you assemble everything with the satisfaction of having the best Tumbler ever produced.
Special thanks _Tile in the name of all those who can finally benefit from this MOC to have taken our requests into account.
Since this morning, social networks have been swarming with dripping congratulations and for good reason, LEGO is celebrating its 80 years ...
80 years for this company that started from (almost) nothing in 1932, with its glory days and dark years, its current 10.000 employees, its world-famous ABS plastic, its status as the 3rd largest toy manufacturer in the world, its loyal customers and its licenses profitable that allowed him to save the furniture and bounce back.
So LEGO is celebrating all that, with the tools of our century like facebook (more than 2 million fans, after that we don't count any more) or Twitter (more than 31000 subscribers @LEGO_Group) ....
The advantage with the fans is that you just have to motivate them, and the buzz is launched. And in addition it costs nothing. When LEGO tells them: "Wish us a happy birthday!", the fans do so without flinching ... And it's the orgy of thanks and congratulations for all these good childhood memories, these superb products that make our children creative and intelligent, this inimitable quality of service, etc., etc...
LEGO is a rockstar who is 80 years old, but who knows that myth is about worship and admiration. TFOLs, KFOLs, AFOLs, thing-FOLs, children, their parents, their grandparents, the poor, the rich, everyone loves LEGO.
Everyone loves this brand which has crossed the generations, which continues to innovate, to offer products always at the heart of trends and fashion and which cultivates a high-end, almost elitist image, so that each customer feels almost privileged to have the right (and the means) to be part of the big toy family.
So, all in heart, Happy Birthday Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), uh, LEGO !!!. Excuse me, I got the wrong rockstar ....
Peer Kreuger aka mahjqa pushes the limits of staging MOCs even further with this extremely well produced video.
There he stages his Tumblers (I was telling you about a few days ago) and adds his version of the Bat for a stunning result.
It's filmed like in the cinema, it sounds like vroum, bing, bang, crash, and after watching the mini-film, do not deprive yourself of the making off just below, you will discover all the tricks used to achieve such a level of realism.
Fans of Power Functions, cinema and special effects of all kinds, this is for you ....
