Re: SM2 Alpha Battlecruiser

SPACE!

I love the use of olive green. I'm a fan of the colour myself, and I'm happy to see that it's now widespread enough to enable fantastic MOC's like this, despite it's still limited palette.

Re: 2014 Classic-Castle Brickcon Meetup

That's too bad. Sorry I didn't chime in, but I barely ever log in here. You know I'd be in though, Caylin!

Re: LEGO around your home...decorating

At work I use a bright yellow LEGO mug. This one:

Re: BrickCon 2013 Castle Planning

Hi Josh -

I just wanted to make sure there was still stand-alone space for my 64 diameter circular MOC as I emailed about previously. It may overhang the edges slightly.

Thanks,

Re: BrickCon 2013 CC Meetup

I'm in as usual! That's an excellent choice as it's so close to the Con. Not to mention, they have great pizza and funky drinks!

Do you know of VicLUG? The next event will be the Cherrybomb Toy Show. I will be there along with another members, you should definitely come hang out (and join the club maybe?!)

Re: Collectors, Where Do You Store Your MISB?

Hi - I have a fairly large collection of MISB sets which are eventually put up for sale. These occupy the storage locker at my condo. My locker is in the attic and is climate controlled like the rest of my building, so I feel they are very safe. Many condo lockers are in the basement and are only ch...

If you use the broken/replacement part form on LEGO.com they will send you a replacement, free of charge. All it asks is you give them information on where the ...

Re: Topping Off

That is a great shot, I love this ones where the entire frame is brick.

I also enjoy how you used the plate versus bricks in the water tower. It's a great contrast.
