My 1:12-scale figures of Male Corrin, Female Corrin, and Corrin's dragon form from the Nintendo 3DS game Fire Emblem Fates! Instructions for all three are available on Rebrickable! Corrin is Fire Emblem Fates' main character/avatar, a noble torn between the kingdoms of Nohr and Hoshido. The human figures have authentic articulation with their many joints, plus various details from the game: Yato, Corrin's legendary sword and Omega Yato, the sword's true form. Dragonstone. Shape-shifted dragon head. Dragon fang shot arm with blast. Dragon lance arm. Three changeable facial expressions (normal, smiling, and shouting). Open hands and fists. Adjustable cape and skirt. (Female Corrin also has adjustable hair) A 1x1 plate to raise hip/legs assembly for crouching poses. Posing stand for complicated poses and stability. The stunning brick-built dragon also has authentic articulation: its head, neck, arms, legs, claws, tail, and wings can all be adjusted for posing. For lovers of Fire Emblem and LEGO, my 1:12 scale figures are the perfect, affordable way to show your love for your favorite characters. As most may never be produced in actual action figure form, here's your chance to build your own! Hope you like the figures, more Fire Emblem Fates characters are coming soon! -
Stunning and huge! So glad when I clicked it that it wasn't the Jack Black Steve.

Especially seeing how the rumored "video" shows the car next to the 2 Fast 2 Furious Skyline GT-R set. See, we are getting more movie car sets!

StudWorks replied to JoKo's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingThe use of the light brick to show the ignition/combustion is seriously wicked! MOC makers should be taking notes of that for future inspiration.

StudWorks replied to ArtemyZotov's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingHoly cow, this is amazingly accurate to the real car! I know some would have problems with the heavy use of system bricks in a Technic MOC, but I don't mind. Can't wait to see the car with decals!

I think so too. For some darn reason the Bugatti Centodienci is a "sports car" instead of a hypercar.

I seriously want to award you for this comment. Loved the Multipla bit!

The Summer 2025 set names have been leaked via the Legoleak subreddit: 77237 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Race Car - $27.99 77238 Lamborghini Revuelto & Huracan STO - $44.99 77239 Porsche 911 GT3 RS Super Car - $27.99 77240 Bugatti Centodienci Sports Car - $27.99 Excited for the Huracan STO as it's one of my favorite new supercars, the new GT3 RS too. The Centodienci is an odd inclusion since it was produced 3 years ago (and it's a hypercar, not a "Sports Car") But can TLG please stop using "Race Car" and "Super Car" in the Speed Champions set names? It's ridiculously stupid.

StudWorks replied to jb70's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingHas anyone considered converting the set into a P1 GTR yet?
-
StudWorks replied to jb70's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingFinally, somebody fixed the front end! I'm excited to see this on Rebrickable, it'll be a real hit, although I think you should (obviously) make sure that this can all be built in bright light orange too.

StudWorks replied to Amt0571's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingWhat I'm really wondering is are the winter 2025 sets so darn expensive. The Supra and Corvette are $10 more than the Bolide and Huracan from last year despite the latter being much better sets. I heard that the Bolide and Huracan didn't really fly off store shelves, and if that's the case they should have made the decision to price the Supra and Corvette at $40 honestly. The Red Bull and Ferrari F1 cars should be, tops $170, NOT $230. And I agree with others, the Ferrari F1 should have been cheaper with its lower piece count compared to the Red Bull F1. And the Tipping Dump Truck should have been priced exactly the same as last year's Mack Garbage Truck, for common sense's sake. I also can't help but think the inclusion of the Deep-Sea Research Submarine is a little inappropriate after the whole Ocean Gate Titan tragedy, in my opinion it's still an uninteresting set anyways.

StudWorks replied to Amt0571's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingThe Arocs was the ultimate Technic set for me. It was huge and expensive at $250 (though now it seems like a bargain) and I got it for Christmas nine years ago. That and the EV3 kit really kickstarted my LEGO enthusiasm and my love for MOC making. And I agree with you completely, LEGO hasn't made anything decent in that size category with a dozen or so functions since the Arocs. The 2025 sets consist of the horribly designed Supra and Corvette, two Formula 1 cars with only a two speed gearbox that both look alike, and to top it off, everything is priced 25-30% more this year than it damn should! The car transporter-scale cars cost ten dollars more than last year's cars which were way better but just sat on shelves forever, the Ferrari F1 cost $230 for only 1,361 pieces and the Red Bull F1 is the same price for 300 more pieces making the Ferrari set disadvantaged, the Dump Truck costs $17 more than the Garbage Truck despite having a lesser piece count, and the Ducati is a big, niche set (in my opinion) that's also overpriced. I like to think positive, but like a lot of people here, every year I feel like TLG gets more moronic, to be frank, so there's nothing wrong with having a little rant about present-day Technic. We all agree the sets from 7-10 years ago were more closer to perfection AND reasonably-priced.

StudWorks replied to Auroralampinen's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingI could say that about A LOT of sets from 2023 and 2024 like the SP3, P1, and the Icons MP4/4, but I like to look on the bright side.

StudWorks replied to Auroralampinen's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingI like keeping a positive attitude, but man, this is terrible. I can't find any redeeming, good quality about this set. First of all, the headlights are a joke, and while the front bumper is faithful to the bodykit the stickered intercooler/radiator looks awful. The gap between the front bumper and hood and the angle at where the hood is mounted is also a big fail. The toilet paper roll mirrors don't look good. The "pull my finger" guy decal is an absolute travesty because of how much is cut out from the decal to make it fit onto the set. The stickered taillights suck (as they did with the Corvette) and the 18944 panel on the rear should have had its "vents" covered. The gaps between the taillights and the hatch are bad. The trunk detail is low and looks cheap with the hole in the back. Big gaps between the doors and interior. So much potential was wasted with the engine bay. I feel like LEGO is going to market this set as having a "authentic 2JZ engine with moving pistons" to be hip with the stereotypical Supra-obsessed 12-year-olds, plus adult JDM enthusiasts, and this doesn't cut it at all. Also, I'm still incredibly confused why LEGO didn't make this a Speed Champions set. The F&F Supra is without a doubt the most requested and anticipated Speed Champions set that LEGO could produce, especially from the success of the two previous F&F Speed Champions sets, and we get this tragic, rushed, cheapo yawn instead of something LEGO car enthusiasts actually WANT. At least it's a recognizable silhouette and more recognizable as a Supra than the infamous 2019 Corvette ZR1 set, but there's not much I can see that would make this set any worse than how it seems from the pictures. This is a testament to what happens when LEGO doesn't listen to its fans, and the continuous amount of flawed designs that make me wish LEGO hired talented and well-esteemed MOC makers that actually take their designs seriously to design their sets.

StudWorks replied to Auroralampinen's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingThe front looks actually quite fine, aside from the yellow 42003 piece behind the window sticking out like a sore thumb. The rear however, looks absolutely terrible, with stickers everywhere (exhaust too, ughhh) and the taillights personally look like they've sunken below into the bodywork. Hopefully the in-game in-app thing on the box means something this time, the forced-CSR Racing stuff ruined the Bolide set, like they just tossed them money and said put our logo on our box and as a sticker that the set looks ridiculous with.

I heard that the rumor for the Tokyo Drift Lancer is not reality. The leaker has been busted for fake news, so this and the Icons Dachshund are disappointingly not going to happen.
-
StudWorks replied to jb70's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingHappy LEGO chose the P1. The W1 (revealed today) just isn't a looker, it's another "vanilla" hybrid hypercar and probably the most boringly-designed exterior for a million dollar hypercar yet along with Ferrari SF90. Even with the incorrect nose, the P1 is just prettier and more timeless of a design.
-
StudWorks replied to jb70's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingGreat, will you make it where your new front end could be built in BLO though?
-
Agreed. Even as a non-F&F fan I love the Speed Champions sets and the Veilside RX7 truly is the car on Tokyo Drift, though the "Mona Lisa" Silvia has a following too.
-
According to r/legoleak, a Bugatti and a 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution will be coming in 2025. I highly believe this will be the Tourbillon and the F&F Tokyo Drift Mitsubishi Evo (which is a 2006) respectively. We got a car from the original F&F, then 2F2F, so it makes sense that the next Speed Champions F&F car will be from Tokyo Drift. Legoleak also says the 2025 Speed Champions range will consist of only singular $26.99 cars.

StudWorks replied to Ngoc Nguyen's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingMcLaren to reveal P1 successor on October 6th. I know it's not related to this set, but I know there's many who believed this car was going to be the 42172 instead of the nine-year-old P1.

StudWorks replied to dantheman12's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingOoh, that's a stunning engine bay!

StudWorks replied to CarTech_Sammy's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingDon't make a motorized LEGO car with a gearbox. It went wrong for me and even if you try your best, it's too impractical. I highly suggest you remove the gearbox if possible.

StudWorks replied to Zerobricks's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingAmazing! I would love to have instructions if possible because I would love to build it someday!

StudWorks replied to Ngoc Nguyen's post in a topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale ModelingI have a hard time believing a life-size car made of LEGO can even DO 40 mph. Must be scary as heck.
