Turning 60426 Jungle Explorer Off-Road Truck into a tyre water slide fun park (medium category, $34.99 RRP).

Built in December 2024 for the Alt-Build Contest, I turned this 60426 Jungle Explorer Off-Road Truck into TIGER'S TYRE WATER SLIDE. The main attraction is - of course - the tiger staring at you while you slide down in your tyre: When sliding down, you will also have your picture taken for those memories to last: However, you have to climb those stairs first: A proper start is also monitored by devices: The path around the slide makes waiting in line an interesting experience, with colorful tiles all along. All this fun happens under the watchful bone-eye of banana totem: Final view is the set in its entirety, all parts were used. With $34.99 RRP, this set just made it into the medium category of the contest. Now let's all take a plunge down this slide - yippie!

Turning 4192 Fountain of Youth into a swamp mech (small category, $19.99 RRP).

Built in December 2024 for the Alt-Build Contest, I turned this 4192 Fountain of Youth into a sturdy SWAMP MECH. In the first picture, you see all pieces used (trampled pirates): Also, the tilted perspective gives the mech a feel of motion. In picture number two, you see the mech from unterneath. Here is an aerial view: And finally, a full frontal: I chose this set because I wanted to see what can be achieved with virtually no SNOT bricks, no joints, no hinges etc. provided. If you want more pictures with different angles or detail shots, let me know in the comments and I'll add them accordingly.

Ariel has just changed her outfit (she keeps her favorites in her cozy corner) and is currently enjoying some of her treasures (which she hides in her cozy corner) while the sea continues to buzz around her: dolphins racing through the waves, a turtle family diving, Duplonia grass swaying with the motion of the deep waters, and all kinds of plush fauna and flora bustling...

Does Vx559 have a specific meaning? The angles make the spaceshift look slightly organic, very nice.

This Xcelerator would even glow without the editing - next thing we know, you turn a BURP into a spaceship! I like the Formula 1 feel of the center. Canoes and M-Tron logos are a given, anyway!

This is awesome, I feel like this spacecraft is so sleek - any number of these would make Commander FlyingGinger completely dizzy when zipping around my Frozen Freight Fractuator. And check out the minifigs posture in the cockpit, nice!

I like how the function for picking up the rover was realized. And the tail lights wings.

Well thank you, it is certainly a behemoth to hold! Thanks all the way So far, I haven't seen a spaceship that was cut off hard at the rear, that is why I tried it this way. It is truly a playset, our kids proved it! Thanks for the love. I was aiming for that triangular look when you see it from above. Yes, who said Duplo can't be NPU? I appreciate that feedback. It was actually fun to incorporate that Crusher-insertion system, which works rather swiftly.

Built in January 2023 for the CSE contest as my first Space MOC, keeping with the Ice Planet 2002 color scheme. Dimensions are 39.5 x 36 x 28 studs, in triangular shape and clean-cut rear. The Fractuator can house 3 persons in its 3 cockpits. The top cockpit features the bridge and a rotating seat for the captain. All necessary intel is provided by a fully rotational radar station. The middle cockpit is usually used for resting or sports, whereas from the lower cockpit the Fractuator is steered. Thrust is provided by 2 Duplonia engines. Additionally, the Fractuator houses the Cross-Icicle Crusher, a 12-wheeled land unit featuring 3 seats and clip-ons for 4 tools. The Crusher can be swiveled downward onto land while the Fractuator hovers over the ground, reverse process for picking it back up. Furthermore, the Crusher can carry the Fractuator while driving across land. Skiing equipment can also be stored on the lower wings. Fractuator & Crusher team consists of 6 astronauts (left to right): Commander FlyingGinger, Captain SpaceTina, Researcher Timmy, Explorer May'anida, Scientist Jazzmine Hobblefind, Space Grandpa Jacques.
