Ayliffe Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 MOC: MINIFIG-SCALE VW CAMEPERVAN.Topic includes Incredibly silly backstory. Caution: May contain nutters. After being sold by an american billionare, this VW Campervan found it's way to a small auction house in a small town called Mayhead City, where it was "accidentally" bought by Dave (the guy on the right) for the grand sum of £20,000. Dave, being Dave, said he didn't have this kind of money just lying around the house, and ended up having to sell his own home to pay for the campervan and avoid being taken to court by the auction house. With no place to live, Dave decided after trying to sleep in the campervan to phone his only friend Jay (the guy on the right), a calm and cautious brickfilmer, and ask beg him to stay at his house for 'a bit'. After 16 whole minutes, Jay reluctantly let Dave stay there with him as long as he replaced the VW logo on the front of the campervan with the Imperial Crest from Star Warsand stopped playing the guitar badly (Dave always thought that he was the plastic incarnation of Jimi Hendrix, but he was in fact the opposite). Two weeks after Dave moved in, this happened in the middle of Mayhead City: After this incident, Dave's guitar 'mysteriously' disappeared from their house, and no-one (except the bin-men) know about it's true whereabouts. Some more pictures of the actual model (Finally!):Without minifigs: Side View: Front View: Back View: Thanks For looking!

Wirza Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 Nice. I'd say more, but I need to see the inside to get a feel for it. Ayliffe 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lol username Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 I like it. I showed it to my dad, he likes it too. He thought the minifigures didn't look like hippies enough though. My dad may or may not have been a hippie. Sorta. It really depends on what you define as a hippie. I dunno if he had a VW van. He has a story about a squirrel causing his roof to crash in on him though. Nice MOC. Ayliffe, aidenpons and Quisoves Potoo 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ayliffe Posted June 3, 2014 Author Share Posted June 3, 2014 I like it. I showed it to my dad, he likes it too. Nice MOC. Thank you! He thought the minifigures didn't look like hippies enough though. Thats because they're not hippies . Have another look at the backstory. Maybe the previous owner was a hippie? My dad may or may not have been a hippie. Sorta. It really depends on what you define as a hippie. Well my mum was actually a goth when she was younger. He has a story about a squirrel causing his roof to crash in on him though. ...and I would like to hear that story The back just doesn't seem right... Linky link Also, I just came across this 40079 I've never actually seen the back of a campervan, so what you see in the pictures above is just me improvising. I'll have another go at the back tonight and I'll post some pictures in the next couple of days. Oh, and I have that mini campervan, it just seemed way too small to me. Nice. I'd say more, but I need to see the inside to get a feel for it. Thanks! It doesn't have an interior at the moment, but I'll add that as well EVERYONE'S REACTION TO THE BACKSTORY ON EUROBRICKS: aidenpons 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
