Thanks for that incredibly informative, in-depth addition to this thread. All of our lives are improved because of it. .. Just kidding, you just bumped a three month old topic for no reason. Please don't do that.

Not too terribly long ago, in 2011, a contest was hosted on the LEGO Universe website challenging entrants to design their own car based on the standard chassis used in the game. Being a fan of the original LEGO Racers game, I had the idea to build an adaption of Basil the Batlord's car from it to fit the LEGO Universe car chassis. The result didn't win the contest, but I had such fun building it that I resolved to build the rest of the LEGO Racers circuit leaders' cars on the Universe chassis. Some of the results turned out better than others, and when I reached the final car, Rocket Racer's, I decided that it wouldn't be viable for me to construct a reasonable facsimile of the the original with my collection. So I skipped it. Recently I decided on a whim to try anyway. The result was not nearly so terrible as I had imagined, although I still feel that the sloping portion at the front is perhaps just a little too long. More images: Another angle Front Side Back Back Angle Top The modular pieces: The chassis. I cheated a little and altered it from the standard form to make the finished design possible.

I hope it's alright with you Oboe Shoes, but I went ahead and added a lot more colors using your modified .LEB files as a base.

Basil the Batlord: 15 brown bricks (Basic bricks, corner bricks, spoiler).. Johhny Thunder: 11 beige bricks. Beige corners, spoiler and flag in the next set. Baron von Barron: Beige corners, spoiler, and flag + 8 "3 x 6 without corner" bricks (Red/Yellow/White/Light gray/Dark gray/Green/Beige/Brown) Gypsy Moth: 7 inverted slopes (Blue/Red/Yellow/Black/Green/Black/Beige). Rocket Racer: 17 dark gray bricks (Basic bricks, corner bricks, inverted triangle, spoile, racing flag). Veronica Voltage: 16 green bricks (Basic bricks, corner bricks, spoiler, racing flag). Most notable are the inclusions of brown and dark gray colors! Download

Nice, sorry I couldn't get back to you on this myself until now, been rather busy as of late. But yeah, I just used a hex editor add-on for notepad++ to copy the binary bits personally, seeing as these files are about half binary, half plaintext, but as you know, the method you used works just as well.

Now, I must compromise. The first Star Wars game, it was a good game. I never played the full thing myself, but I did play the PC demo once. It was different, a break from the previous LEGO games. LSW 1 could very well be called a classic LEGO game, not on the same level as the true classic ones, but an actual classic because it was (at the time) a unique game. It's only in hindsight when they've reused and improved the same formula over and over again does the originality of the original game becomes boring, redundant, and almost shovel-ware, leading to disappointment over this news.

"Classic LEGO games" "Star Wars Mobile LEGO games following on from successful app releases of the Batman and Harry Potter platform ports. Coming in Spring / Summer 2014." Classic LEGO game = early TT Games Star Wars?

I translated the sentence "Chief is one of the six main Characters from Rock Raiders. " dozens of times, because I wanted to know, how many weird translations are possible. Here are the best examples (I had four open tabs with the bad translator to get more translations in the same time. Sorry that I have so many translations, but I couldn't decide, which ones were better): ...8 translations later, Bing gives us: "Stone is one of the six main characters, General Manager of the pirates." Comment: Best job description ever. I hope, that Pirate General Manager "Stone" will appear in Rock Raiders II results with 35 translations and Bing: "The six main characters die, how many people." "The stone is an important part of the President of the Republic. Hunter 6" "Rock Raiders is the sixth sign of the Governor." "Pirates of People's Republic of China is one of six characters." "Kennedy in part 6 of the Israel Army Commander." "Geology of Indonesia: philosophy, Zhang Jing." "This is a 6, a former Bush virus." "President George w. Bush's sins." "The six main characters: bandits" "List of Presidents of the hijackers." "The robbers and one of the main characters in a line to success, as Chairman of the meeting." "6 four main characters are 2 thieves." "The main character was one of the six walls." "Sign up for the theft of the stone 6." "The cross was stolen. Two big 6" "One of the first female President of India 6: Jones is amazing." "Hollywood Hunter 2-6" "Hands of Stone, one of the participants in the market." "Rock band 6" "Genre: pop rock Raiders 6 Sunday." "Rock Raiders 6." "The key was stolen."

Interesting, I've seen that video but didn't know it was part of a series. Though, that reminds me... Here's some old commercials and stop-motion animations telling short stories and such:

Seeing the 1973 brickfilm stop-motion reminded me of a series of other pretty old (looking) LEGO stop-motion videos. The fun thing is, no actual minififures are used here. Here is my favorite video of this series: LEGO Sports.

Dude, those kinds of things. They're like my lego dreams come true. Ah, one of my favorite chiptunes. Those aren't cool. Those are awesome. Now to share my own: What's better than a Cthulhu? A LEGO Cthulhu. I don't know why, but I like how this minifig and his equipment looks. What's a good story without our intrepid heroes having to cross an old, creaky bridge. I'm sorry, those last two are the LEGO adventurer in me.

Ah, I've seen some of his stuff before, the pizza delivery ones I found pretty amusing. Though when it comes to humor in LEGO stop motions, I tend to prefer more... surreal things. And speaking of pizza and surreal humor, this animation by Keshen8 had me cracking up laughing when I first saw it: And of course, SpastikChuwawa is easily the king of surreal but hilarious LEGO stop motion animations: And 0ldScratch... And ZachMG... ... And so many more videos by those guys, and so many other guys with awesome videos, but it appears I can only embed four at a time. :P

If you've never heard of Rymdreglage, allow me to introduce you to them. They make chiptunes and excellent LEGO stop-motion videos. Great combination. A 3D animated LEGO Pirates video with some cool LEGO water effects: ... And a half-hour-long stop motion animation!
