That's cool. In anticipation for the first physical release of Rocket Racer, I built his car from the games but with the colors and details reflective of the car costume piece. I also created alternate hood designs that showcased his iconic RR logo like his car in the LEGO Racers games.

I'm learning how to mashup songs and this my most succesful try. Enjoy! Tracks used: Knightmare Athon Royal Knights Raceway Imperial Grand Prix Magma Moon Marathon Rocket Racer Run

Series 18 of the collectible minifigures includes a "Race Car Guy"... The official bios for this series aren't out yet, so we don't know if he's truly supposed to be a Rocket Racer redesign, or something else (since the theme of this series is a costume party). Still, I thought maybe people would want to mod this guy into the Racers games, and I just got him at LEGOLAND California a few days ago... So I got some photos for anyone to use. They're not the absolute best, but they're good enough for reference when making textures.

[9:26 PM] ProfessorBrickkeeper: Oh boy, this just reminded me of a story from my 2015 visit to LEGOLAND Windsor, and waiting in line for Atlantis... [9:42 PM] Ayliffe: did a small gust of wind blow the cardboard ride building into a nearby tree again [9:51 PM] ProfessorBrickkeeper: So, I was waiting in the outdoor queue, which is separated by these wooden fences with metal lattice. [9:51 PM] ProfessorBrickkeeper: [9:52 PM] ProfessorBrickkeeper: Here’s an image do you can visualize the area. [9:54 PM] mumboking: For a moment, I thought that said vandalize. [9:54 PM] ProfessorBrickkeeper: Oh, I’ll get there... [9:56 PM] ProfessorBrickkeeper: Anyway, a few groups ahead, there’s this family with a young (probably around five y/o) girl. [10:05 PM] ProfessorBrickkeeper: And this girl... as she makes her way through the line, for some inexplicable reason, is just licking everything around her. 1 [10:06 PM] ProfessorBrickkeeper: And not like pressing her mouth against stuff, she’s going at it full-tongue. [10:08 PM] ProfessorBrickkeeper: As the line starts to move, the family move from against the back wall/fence (which she was licking) to one of the central fences. [10:09 PM] ProfessorBrickkeeper: But she continues undeterred and her mouth finds its way to one of the wooden fences. [10:09 PM] ProfessorBrickkeeper: Which as you recall, has a sheet of lattice over it. [10:10 PM] ProfessorBrickkeeper: Now right behind this fence, there’s a guy just leaning against it, unaware of what is about to go down. [10:12 PM] mumboking: Oh no... [10:13 PM] ProfessorBrickkeeper: Through one of the holes in the lattice, the girl’s tongue manages to fit... [10:14 PM] ProfessorBrickkeeper: Right against this other guy’s butt. [10:14 PM] mumboking: OH! [10:14 PM] Terrev: oh [10:16 PM] Ayliffe: I was expecting this story to go in many directions but this wasn't one of them [10:18 PM] ProfessorBrickkeeper: And this is why I will never look at the LEGOLAND Windsor Atlantis attraction the same way again. [10:19 PM] Ayliffe: On the plus side though [10:19 PM] Ayliffe: at least you weren't trapped in one of the submarines with her [10:20 PM] Terrev: At legoland california recently my nephew got a minifigure bag (firework guy) and was trying to open it [10:20 PM] Terrev: Some random girl comes along [10:20 PM] Terrev: Says I CAN HELP [10:20 PM] Terrev: Takes the bag [10:21 PM] Terrev: Shoves it in her mouth and is about to either rip the bag or remove half her teeth with it [10:21 PM] Terrev: Everyone yells NO in unison [10:21 PM] Terrev: We take it back, she runs off, everyone is laughing/dumbfounded [10:22 PM] Terrev: Why are kids [10:22 PM] Terrev: Just... Why are kids [10:22 PM] ProfessorBrickkeeper: I’m glad we all have our own stories of how our LEGOLAND experience has been tarnished by kid’s mouths.

[11:00 PM] Terrev: https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/legoatlantis/images/c/ca/Crew_2.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20100208185825 [11:00 PM] Terrev: dude on the left is like a reverse flex [11:00 PM] Red60: flex had orange hair [11:00 PM] Red60: so maybe it is flex [11:01 PM] Red60: he just quit and became a sex explorer [11:01 PM] Red60: because they have better benefits [11:01 PM] Red60: like dental
