t47 1Here it is finally finished, this T-47 AirSpeeder entirely designed using Technic elements.
 
Even if it is obvious that compromises had to be made to allow the assembly of the set, it must be admitted that the result is impressive.
To find out more and ask your questions to this MOCeur, go to this topic at Eurobricks.
 
Drakmin has also posted photos of the model under construction, and you will discover the final result of his MOC Technic X-Wing, just as impressive.

The updated LEGO HOLO-BRICK base

09/02/2011 - 20:06 Lego news
holobricksAre you looking for a specific set?
You can of course go to Brickset or one of the many sites listing the entire range of LEGO Star Wars sets released to date, but you can also, in a more fun way, use the base HOLO-BRICK from the LEGO site.
The research, interactive and nicely done, is possible by year, by reference of the set or by episode of the saga.

The cards are not very provided, but we still find the visuals of sets, the box and minifigs. The year of marketing and the number of pieces are also indicated.

7958: Star Wars 2011 Advent Calendar

09/02/2011 - 11:24 Lego news
7958Another new visual stamped "Preliminary" for the Star Wars advent calendar scheduled for late 2011.
We see the range of mini models that will be provided and the few minifigs included.
Note the ridiculous Yoda dressed as Santa Claus, presented as "Exclusive" ......
For the rest, the mini models are arbitrary, as usual with the LEGO advent calendars, except perhaps the Slave I and more ....
In short, this set will not revolutionize the genre, but we will still be satisfied to be able to have a calendar on a different theme from the usual City or Castle.

It smells like a tree for LEGO Universe ...

08/02/2011 - 22:34 Lego news
UniverseWe suspected it but after all it could work.

Massively Multiplayer Online Gaming LEGO Universe is currently on sale at € 9.99 shipping included with 1 month of free online play.

Either LEGO wants to boost the subscriptions to its game, or it's a last-ditch fight before the merry-go-round comes to a complete stop.

I tried this game (only available in English) during the beta and after its official launch, and beyond the first few minutes, it's rather boring, neither beautiful, nor ugly, neither very alive, nor very brilliant.

 The passion for LEGO at its limits, and if I particularly like the LEGO series on consoles (Batman / Indy / SW / HP), there I did not hang at all.
Without getting too wet, I can tell you that the game will be free in June and the servers closed at the start of the school year .....

7965: Millenium Falcon seen from the inside

08/02/2011 - 17:25 Lego news

7965 insideFinally a view of the interior of the set 7965: Millenium Falcon ...

We discover the (disappointing) layout of this set (or playset) planned for June 2011.
Nothing too exciting, too much gray kills gray ...

Note that this visual seems to be really from a preliminary version, you will notice the catastrophic quality of the editing (!) Of the interior view with Han Solo and Leia Organa ....
In short, the set is articulated, as we had guessed, but does not bode well if it remains as it is. It is even more attractive simply closed and put, than in open position ....
