Has it really been 9 months since a MOC was announced on Lugnet? Here goes
nothing...
I spent the last three years building an Minifig Scale In-N-Out Burger. It’s
fully detailed inside and out, the only Non Lego pieces are the vinyl cling
logo stickers:

That’s really gorgeous. Terrific work, and thanks for sharing!

Nice. Making me hungry - and a little sad I won’t be in California anytime soon.

I originally designed these streetlamps for
“The Cube”:
I should probably try and see how the look with the modern plate hinges...
Play well,

Steven,
Speaking of Lime Green Fire Engines, I’d love to see one from TLG too. But
until they make one, you can check out this pic of my Lime Green Fire
Engine. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=3275744

There are lots of
departments that have lime fire trucks, but Lego hasn’t given us the parts
to make them. In addition, almost all
airport fire departments have their rigs in lime.
Based on my conversations with other builders, I put together a list of parts
that aren’t available.
1) Lime doors. Including
car doors and
lift doors.
2) A better ladder piece.
The current ladders from Lego work great as ground ladders, but there hasn’t
been a piece that works well as an
aerial ladder
Megablocks makes one, but
it’s too large and I would never buy their brand.
3) Minifig hazmat suits
I think a rescue hazmat set with a rescue truck and minifigs would sell VERY
well.
4) Flat windscreens in
6-wide. (Long been a problem for fire truck builders)
5) Please re-release this
part in red. It’s going for as much as $20 on Bricklink.
Lego fire builders represent one on the larger sub-groups here and on
Brickshelf. And Lego fire sets consistently show up on Lego Shop and Home’s
top 25 sellers list.
Thanks for your consideration!

The 2012 fire set
photos have now been widely distributed.
I know some people will groan at yet another line of city fire sets, but keep in
mind that kids are the target audience, and these sets sell well.
However, Lego put some long-awaited goodies in these sets that AFOLs have been
asking for.
- New ladder piece!
- Printed fireman legs
- Fire chief minifig
Thank you, TLC, for these. Can’t wait for these sets to be released.
-Steven

Hi All,
The www.altBricks.com website is ready for orders!!! It took way longer than
planned to get the site all up and running. And we have been so burried in
"side" orders that we keep running out! But we just received a large shipment
so there are plenty for all (we hope)!
On a side note, we aren't selling on Bricklink any longer, but still love the
site!!! Thanks Bricklink for letting altBricks get a start on your site!

Awesome concept, but sadly the build does not excite me. Maybe focus on one
vehicle and a more interesting building. A smaller set with an intricate build
might be more interesting to CUUSOO users.

Speaking of your son,
Will he be joining dear-ol-dad when you trek up here to display those amazing
leaves?
Can not wait to hoist a beverage with you again.

Unfortunately, Ross won’t be attending-- actually, this is a work gig for me!
I will be vending with me Brickmania mates!
I am also looking forward to bending elbows after hours with you and the Fêters!

All good-natured snark aside, these really do produce a remarkably lovely

All good-natured snark aside, you have proven to be right in so many ways,
Dave! I have become a total fan of clones, especially when they are produced
by fans themselves. Pandora’s box is open; let the mayhem ensue!

As long as the end result is good, I’m all for clones and even for the mixing
of clone brands, though I admit that I tend to be brand-pure in any given MOC
(despite my usual “can’t we all get along” stance on clones).
I seem to recall a very nice LEGO rose from a few years back, though I can’t
find the thread. Was that yours as well? If so, then you certainly have a
knack for brick-based foliage!

Steve Barile has created these great LEGO leaves in Fall colors, and I have
been building with them, and wanted to show them off:-) I’m planning on
swapping out all of the green trees on the TCLTC layout with “Steve’s Leaves”
every autumn, just as a fun change for the viewing public.
Here is what I’ve created so far:

I still need to build some using the dark orange and brown leaves, too! As
you can see, the colors are fantastic; folks, you gotta get some of these! I
found them HERE

Another gorgeous clone brand! I love it!

Very nice, very autumny. Have you tried mixing colours in a tree to see what it
looks like?
