Here's my TECHNIC/BIONICLE/Hero Factory version of the cow! LXF File

There's already some buzz about it in the profile feed, so here's your news report: The latest Ideas review stage has come to a close, and out of the dust have emerged two new (licensed) LEGO sets. Dr. Who made his way from the first 2014 review period into approval, while Wall-E made no delays and comes straight from the June-September body of contestants. You can view the announcement

Just a little quick sketch I whipped up to promote a project I'm working on. ARE YOU NOT INTRIGUED? I don't see why you would be. There's nothing about this image to suggest anything intriguing. But I guess that couldn't be helped. Oh sure, I COULD have posted something more informative but where's the fun in that? Also: Sorry I've been slacking, Nog! I'll get back to work I promise!

Merged with existing topic.

"Based on a toy line with no story or defined characters" oops

The BBC's official press release for the set also features a teaser image of a Capaldi minifig: It's not much to go on, but it does reveal a new mold for the hairpiece, which hasn't been done for a single ideas set before. Any chance we're possibly getting more than one set?

Wall-E? Depending on pricing, that may be one I get. It certainly appeals to me more than Doctor Who.

But seriously, it looks like some sorta crossover; the character on the right is a style different to the one on the left which is easily recognisable as your own drawing... ...just a speculation...

As there has been some confusion on what the official name really are since there was no given name outside the files which no one saw until over a decade after the game's release, and everyone has since given them their own name, here are the official names according to the files so we are all on the same page when talking about them. To make this topic less dry, I'm going to copy paste the manual's description under the picture AND name. I'm also going to have this topic open to disscussion on the weapons, as I've already started below the descriptions. Feel free to join in on the conversation. BLOODHOUND This Power-up is a powerful homing missile that finds its target, just like a bloodhound. When you gain this Power-up, you’ll see a target appear on the nearest car in front of you. Press Use Powerup to shoot the missile at this car. The car doesn't need to be directly in front of you – the missile will find its target! Advanced use: Press the Next Homing Missile Target key or the Previous Homing Missile Target key to target the car of your choice then press the Use Power-up key to shoot the missile. This way you can target any car in the game. CORKSCREW This Power-up sends a big rocket with a spinning drill at the front after your opponents. When fired, it will shoot off in a straight line, damaging every car in its path, until it hits the landscape or a building. Advanced use: This Power-up can also be used as a speed-boost. Rather than pressing the Use Power-up key and letting go, keep holding it. Your car will become attached to the rocket and you’ll be dragged down the track until you let go of the key. Be careful where you use this function, as you will have no control over the direction of the rocket. Also, make sure you let go of the key before it explodes, otherwise your car will be damaged. NEMESIS This Power-up creates a spinning whirlwind that drops onto the track behind your car. It will then start growing, but if nobody drives into it, it will disappear after 5 seconds. When a car hits the vortex, it will spin around, out of control, and will be also take some damage. This Power-up can be very effective if you drop it somewhere where it’s difficult for other drivers to see it, such as after a bend. Advanced use: Instead of just pressing the Use Power-up key, hold it down. The whirlwind will stay attached to your car, and as it gets bigger, it will act as a shield, deflecting anything that tries to hit you. But make sure you let go, and drop the vortex within 5 seconds, otherwise you will get caught up in it - you will lose control of your car and it will be damaged too. SHOCKWAVE With this Power-up, all of the other cars in the race will begin deconstructing when you press the Use Power-up key. It will last for 6 seconds, and every 2 seconds, a layer of LEGO® bricks will disappear from your opponents cars! As this Power-up is so powerful, it doesn’t have an advanced use. SLIZER DISC This disc travels in a straight line, bouncing off the landscape, until it runs out of power or hits a car. Advanced use: You can fire the disc at cars that are behind you by holding down the Look Behind key, and then the Use Power-up key. STEALTH This Power-up makes you invisible for a little while. Other players will find it harder to hit you, and the homing missile won’t be able to lock on to you. Also, you’ll be able to overtake other players unnoticed. Advanced use: While in stealth mode, you’ll have the ability to steal another player’s Power-up by bumping into them; don’t worry, you won’t lose any bricks from your car when you do this. To help you choose, you will be able to see an icon of the Power-up that each player is carrying (if they’ve got one) over each car. THUNDERBALL This Power-up creates a bubble around your car, which grows in size until it bursts, unleashing the power of a thunderstorm on other cars! Advanced use: Rather than just pressing the Use Power-up key, try holding it down for at least a second. The bubble will grow as before, but when you let go, it’ll drop on to the track. It will continue to grow, but if another car hits it, it’ll explode (and that car will take double the damage of other cars nearby). The longer the bubble stays on the track, the more damage it will do, but your car will not be affected. But be careful – make sure you drop it within five seconds, otherwise it’ll explode and your car will take double the normal damage. I've said it before, and I'll say it again, the shockwave weapon is simply way too overpowered, espesially with how unintelligent the AI for not going to fix their car even if it is exactly half broke, and when the player can easily grab another one of these and simply take all racers out in one blow after they've passed by the only fixing pit in the track, which they would also be too dumb to u-turn back to even if they just passed by it two seconds ago. Over on the Nemeis weapon discription, there are a few incorrect things in the manual that I've noticed: Uuuh, it expires after 5 seconds regardless if anyone drives into it or not...? Also, I may be reading too much into it, but it almost sounded like a given that the vehicle was suppose to take damage. At this state, no, you don't take damage when you go into it, unless you slide into a palm tree or something. Uh, no, it does not act as a shield, I've tested this statement and proved that it is not true.

This should be able to help you lego modding noob: '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>

20 comics down, 20 more to go! I've given you another post on the first page so you can continue to post them in the topic. Let's give thanks to Cyrem for sacrificing his post to make this happen. o7

They're backwards compatible - just like any LEGO piece today is a part of the same system of play that was introduced in the 1950s.

Hmm? More licensed LEGO games created by TT Games? Well whoopdi-doop, I stopped caring long ago. Get back to me when LEGO gets back on its creative & imaginative tracks again and makes a good game that isn't a MMO that will shut down shortly after it launches.

*Is suddenly relevant to this topic*

Man, your texture work just looks so clean and nice. Me like.

Is it bizarre and has references to series like Initial D? Yes. Is it way over the top? YES. Note: The preview looks way smaller than usual, because there is a height limit for pictures of 750 pixels and this picture is 4700 pixels long. Solution: click on it and view it in its original resolution. Update (2022-12-29): I don't know how often I will use this forum, but I just wanted to write that once in a while I still make Insane Raiders themed comics. They are simpler (more like a sketch) and without colour, but they are still full of dubious decisions related to dynamite and landslides! Since I posted those only in Discord chat rooms etc. so far (where they can go under) I wanted to put them in one place and so I added them to my existing Insane Raiders gallery on DeviantArt. I hope you enjoy them! https://www.deviantart.com/arthuriel/gallery/50994783/insane-raiders
