nerdsforprez Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Got mine on friday, already read through the whole thing. Wonderful and more wonderful. Thanks Sariel. I hope this generates enough interest for additional editions. New, amazing creations are coming out everyday. For one, I really think that pipasseyoyo's Impreza WRX is pretty amazing. I now that you can order it via bol.com, only i get one from Nostarch for free . Not real concerned about getting one for free. If I have to pay to get excellent work like this..... I am all for it. More support means perhaps more editions :) Quote
Thirdwigg Posted November 17, 2014 Author Posted November 17, 2014 Thank you, I put links to both your reviews at my website :) When do I get a copy? ;P You should talk to the publisher. They should be able to hook you up. Quote
efferman Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Not real concerned about getting one for free. If I have to pay to get excellent work like this..... I am all for it. More support means perhaps more editions :) Master Ship builder VfRacingteam has one of his ships in the book, and all people who have a model in the book get a copy for free. Quote
DrJB Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 (edited) I just checked amazon.com and you can see 'inside' a few more pages ... the book is definitely worth it, and amazon is offering a discount if you pre-order. I just did mine. I just discovered the DT-75 dozer and the Holmer Terra Dos T3 Sugar Beet Harvester. Edited November 17, 2014 by DrJB Quote

More support means perhaps more editions :) You have complete right and have order some copy´s for mine customers, but just like Efferman said, all the people in the book get his copy for free .

Sariel Posted November 17, 2014 Posted November 17, 2014 Those are really nice looking MOCs. Are they painted? Nope. As far as I remember, not a single model in this book is painted except for the Honda motorbike's orange rims. Quote
Blakbird Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 I just checked amazon.com and you can see 'inside' a few more pages ... the book is definitely worth it, and amazon is offering a discount if you pre-order. I just did mine. I just discovered the DT-75 dozer and the Holmer Terra Dos T3 Sugar Beet Harvester. There was a topic here on EB about that Sugar Beet Harvester that didn't get many replies which is too bad because the model is just incredible. Surf on over and take a look! Quote
Paul Boratko Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 Those are really nice looking MOCs. Are they painted? The DT 75 is actually red... I think the pictures are overly brightened which makes them appear orange... If I remember correctly it had some parts that were made by Lego, but were never "Official" parts in any sets... Quote
Sariel Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 (edited) If I remember correctly it had some parts that were made by Lego, but were never "Official" parts in any sets... Yup, these red wagon wheels. If you surf Bricklink far and wide, you will occasionally come across legit LEGO pieces in officially non-existent colors, this was the case with DBG half-pins in my Tiger tank. The story is, such parts are either produced for some Legoland models or to test molds (this is true with red pieces - red plastic is best at showing flaws in molds). But how these end up at Bricklink is a mystery to me. Edited November 18, 2014 by Sariel Quote
designer-han Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 Ring ring: postman got a delivey for me..... just a couple of minutes ago. One word: AMAZING BOOK !!!! Beyond expectations ! Quote
Edwin Korstanje Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 Here the same and just like Han already said it´s way beyond the expections and is mind blowing good. :thumbup: . Quote
Sariel Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 Thanks, still waiting for mine... Fun fact: the initial title for the book was Beautiful Technic, but we were afraid that Lego Castle people would come after us with pitchforks ;) Quote
TheNextLegoDesinger Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 in belgium it is €23 for it on bol.com but it comes out in 4 days Quote
kennywest Posted November 18, 2014 Posted November 18, 2014 (edited) This book was waiting in my mail box this afternoon. Pre-ordered it with No Starch, can't wait to start reading :) PS: I'm also from Belgium :P Edited November 18, 2014 by kennywest Quote
Thirdwigg Posted November 19, 2014 Author Posted November 19, 2014 Thanks, still waiting for mine... Fun fact: the initial title for the book was Beautiful Technic, but we were afraid that Lego Castle people would come after us with pitchforks ;) I try not to have people chase me with pitchforks. You made a good decision. Quote
