Hello everyone Before starting off I would like to apologize from my Mods because I may open the thread in wrong section. I couldnt find Western,Cowboys theme section So let me start saying how awesome this golden set is. 6761 Bandit's Secret Hideout 1997. During my childhood in 1997-2003 my parents wouldnt buy me this line no matter how many times I cried. I did find near mint condition for 120 euro and saved shipping,customs because it was a local find. Unfortunately the trumpet lost some of its yellow gold. I may be the Adventurers Nerd but this Western theme have strong pull on Vintage lego AFOL's w3 by StreaMRoLLeR -, on Flickr w2 by StreaMRoLLeR -, on Flickr Thanks

I've always wanted to do a bit of building in a cowboy genre, so I finally made time to do this two-build story. So Jep… tell us about these friends of yours, will ya? When did you say they’re coming? Oh, sometime this morning. They’re city slickers, you know. No telling how long it’ll take ‘em to get ready, or how many trunks they’ll be bringin’, or anything like that. *abrupt knock on the door* That’s probably them! – eh, Jep? Welcome, Bill! Come on in, Charlie! Good to see ya! Bill, Charlie, this is Wayne. *shakes hands* Howdy! *politely* Good day to you as well, sir. *guffaws loudly* Sir! How’s that, Bill? Not bad for your rough-and-readys, eh? *shakes hands with Wayne* And allow me to introduce you to Jack, another good friend of mine. Good to see some new faces out here, gentlemen! A pleasure to be seen, I’m tellin’ ya! What a time we had gettin’ ready for this trip! Didn’t we! What’s doing here in your neck of the woods? Bill and I, we’re up to anything. Shall we vamoose la ranch and pull over some buckin’ broncos, or what’s the program, eh cowboys? *aside* You’ve got some real yuppie friends, Jep. *embarrassed* Oh, it’s all talk. They’ll get over it. *raises voice* Well, in fact, I’m not sure that, with those awful neat outfits… *interrupting quickly* Oh, that’s not a problem! We’ve… Not a bit of it, in fact! Just what Charlie was saying! See, we brought along some… *excitedly* Yep, we did too! And we’ll be ready in no time. Won’t we, just! But… ah… ready for what? Oh, don’t… Just give us a sec! Right! Ready in a jiffy, cowboys! *exit city slickers* Hmm. Okay, well… that was… Don’t know about you two, but I think it’s about time to go cow tipping. *re-enter city slickers* Ta-da! Seriously? *in an undertone* I agree with you about the cow tipping. Well, what d’ya think? Pretty spiffy, eh? Gen-u-ine! Yeah! Yeah, really… Hats, anyone? Oh, we got those! Drrrumrrroll pleeeeze! Dun – Dun – DUN!! Splendid! Now – who’s ready for some cow-tippin’?!? *aside to Charlie* What’s cow-tipping? I dunno. But I’m game. We’re your men! Let’s go! Wait! – wait – it needs to get dark first. Cows don’t tip well until they’re asleep. *raising eyebrows* Oh! Is it that kind of tipping?! Goodness gracious. I’d never thought cows tipped their owners. Especially – asleep! What on earth are you two jabbering about? The cows don’t tip us, we tip them! Oh! My! Got much change on you, Charlie? *aside* Do all yuppies act like this? I think you’d better explain a bit, Jep. Um… right. Yeah. Cow tipping is – well, see, when it gets dark out, cows go to sleep. *animated nods from the city slickers* Standing up. But it’s hard to get a full night’s rest standing up. Ever tried it? Um… can’t say I have… Trust me, you don’t want to. Right. Not pleasant. So we put the cows out of their misery by going out there and tipping them over. So they can lay flat on the nice, soft grass. And get a good night’s rest, so they’ll give plenty of milk the next morning. *aside* Wow. I’d never heard it spun out quite that well. Thanks. So’re you two willin’ to lend a hand? Anytime, cowboys! I really wish he’d stop saying that. It’s settled then! Soon as it gets dark, we head out. *later, after dark* Alright. Here’s the plan. Bill, you take that brown one off to the right. Charlie, let’s see if you can’t tackle the white one near the tree. Ready? You bet! But what are you folks gonna do? Oh, Jep here is goin’ to tip us a stave, won’t you Jep? My pleasure! *whispers* Okay Charlie, now’s our chance to shine! Let’s go it! On the count of three… *groans* They must not have been sleeping soundly… The End Hope you enjoyed it! C&C welcome; I had some fun with these builds, especially the second one. Thanks for reading!

Howdy folks! As a child growing up, the LEGO City theme has been my most favourite theme. I also experienced some LEGO Adventurers, LEGO Spider-Man, LEGO Creator, etc. I never owned any LEGO Western sets or Lone Ranger sets, but had seen them online. I would save up pocket money, birthday money, Christmas money, to purchase LEGO sets from Woolworths (UK), Moons Toy Store (UK), or Argos (UK). They were "the good old days", indeed. Today I am a AFOL - adult fan of LEGO. Fascination and interest of the Wild West and Western has began to grow since playing - Red Dead Redemption 2 (2018) - by the famous Rockstar Games. It was indeed an incredible historic time period, with a lot of room for imagination and adventure. I would love to someday make a LEGO Western town main street, but seek advice from the Eurobricks LEGO community. If I was to build a Western setting, what should I consider? Any recommendations? What town buildings do you suggest? Some structure ideas include: Saloon Hotel Sheriff's Office Bank Stable General Store Gun Store Undertaker's Town Hall Train Station w/ train Barbers Mine & Mineshaft Hunter's Shack Fisherman's Shack Shack & Houses Fort ? Church & graveyard Addition ideas: Riffles, guns, pistols, dynamite Railway Wagons & horses Cactus
