Hey! I've got something to share. I've used a lot of my time for the last couple of months dedicated to Drome Racers history and archival projects. I think I'm able to tell you guys that I've recieved all known scanned issues of LEGO Racers Official Racing Programme. The thing about these comics is perhaps how they went virtually unnoticed for over a decade of time beyond a couple of bricklink listings. Me and a couple of friends dived deep into archiving these comics and we got some info about why they were originally lost to begin with - the gist was these magazines were given away for free in limited sets, toy shops and events, AKA extremely (and impossible to find) rare in English. The comics included in these magazines were also present as motion comics on LEGO.com, but those are lost to time now. http://imgur.com/gallery/F55eYSO (ISSUE 1-2: BOTH ARE IN GERMAN - IT'D BE APPRECIATED IF ANYONE COULD TRANSLATE IT) http://imgur.com/gallery/LCJOKBE (ISSUE 3-4: ALL ARE IN ENGLISH) - I'm still on my way to tracking down the advertised 5th issue but I'm certain it's either cancelled or even rarer to find. Me and the group are figuring out our next move. I hope this was worth it because it sure was to me!

Hmmm, last post was over 2 years ago, whoops.. A lot has happened over that time, I moved houses, twice, I changed jobs, thrice, I've been doing contract work, and I've released a few games. All while still developing and prototyping for racers on and off. So let me get the first bit of cool news out of the way, I recently released a little arcade game for Halloween, Papa's Grave Quest! https://papabrickolini.itch.io/papas-grave-quest It was developed in 72 hrs, just in time for Halloween. And features a version of my kart physics to be used in RR. So go check that out right now and play! And be sure to leave feedback and rate it on itch.io. Now what about RR? Well lets see. First off while I haven't posted here in >2 years, I do however discuss and post updates on our Discord! https://discord.gg/TT5FD5q So if you're excited for racers, definitely join our community. Lately in development I've been working on visuals and recreating the Test Track. Recently created a new minifigure rig and got some renders. I asked the community how they felt on having impossible poses on figures "shoulders out of sockets etc" Cape physics. https://streamable.com/bbdaum A ton of other stuff that has happened, but in short, RR is still being developed actively, we got a community growing and some cool stuff is planned. So again, if you want live updates and participate in game night, join our Discord. https://discord.gg/TT5FD5q ?
