xwingyoda Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Make it in white, black, yellow, red, grey, or dark bley ;-) I'm sure there are a few more I can't think of. Yep indeed like tan to stay in the Indy theme. And if I'm pissed is because I want it dark green, if not i wouldn't have posted what I previously posted :-| EDIT: tks for those pics Gyl ;-) Its really a nice Jeep, my Indy nazi army will need some ;-) Humm, that bloody set will be expensive on BL |-/ *yoda* Quote
gylman Posted February 29, 2008 Author Posted February 29, 2008 Make it in white, black, yellow, red, grey, or dark bley ;-) I'm sure there are a few more I can't think of.-Chuck Actually, in pink and white for my paradisa display! Unless I misread the information, according to the Bricklink catalog, the 1 x 1 corner panel and the 1 x 2 panel have never been made in dark green before! Quote
Lt. Col. Thok Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 nice, nice, NICE! *y* *y* Great find! Quote
Zarkan Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Amen budy Yeay its rezally pissing me off big time as well. Not for the Indy fig off course (G I'll end up having more Indys than Vaders ) but for that sweet dark green Jeep !! This brings to mind an interesting post in the BZP blog of Greg F (you know, the writer of bionicle). He said that since there is going to be an exclusive Brickmaster Bionicle set that will have storyline significance, it's possible that they might try sell it regulary in countries that don't get Brickmaster. Who knows, maybe if there is enough demand TLC might start selling the brickmaster kits in countries like France. ;-) Anyway, this kit is great! Really nice jeep design considering the size of the kit, some great dark green parts, and of course, an Indy Fig. Hehe, even this is better than the "jeep" in the crystal skull temple kit coming out this year. :-D Quote

madoka Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Since you guys not in the US now have warning, why not hook up with someone in the US to get the set? I'm planning on getting additional BM accounts now myself and wouldn't mind applying for extra ones for EB members. Quote

I'm planning on getting additional BM accounts now myself and wouldn't mind applying for extra ones for EB members. thats nice but I remember reading that each BM suscriber may not have every licence item, so if you suscribe and get Bionicle instead when you're an Indy fan then you're pretty screwed !! *yoda* Quote
snefroe Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Meh... we can just reverse engineer it and build our own. I tried to do it just now, but I don't seem to have the right size wheels for it easily at hand. Maybe later this evening I'll try again. sure i can easily build this thing too, but it's not the same and these dark green panels seem hard to find, if you're asking me Quote
Brickmaster Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Wow, this thing is lovely *wub* Ironically I'm not a brickmaster member, so I'll just have to see how it's built and build my own, our of back or grey, quite easily have the parts from what I see. Just not the same as dark gree, and I don't have an indy fig. But we can't have everything, eh? :-/ Quote
xenologer Posted February 29, 2008 Posted February 29, 2008 Meh... we can just reverse engineer it and build our own. I tried to do it just now, but I don't seem to have the right size wheels for it easily at hand. Maybe later this evening I'll try again. The wheels can be found in LDD Factory/pick a brick theyre in the Technic section. The tyres are a little more difficult... theyre in the larger tiny turbo sets Quote

I'm planning on getting additional BM accounts now myself and wouldn't mind applying for extra ones for EB members. Good luck, we had a ton of trouble just getting two, one for my brother and one for me, since we live at the same adress. I think they will probably not let you do that. Anyway I can't WAIT to get this set!!! X-D Quote
Dadster Posted March 1, 2008 Posted March 1, 2008 That looks pretty neat! I can't say I'd go for the whole BM deal just to get it, but don't you folks think it'll be available eventually outside of this promotion? I'm all for reverse-engineering it as well, but that dark green is way cool.... Does anyone know when its due to hit the streets? Quote
Canticleer blues Posted March 1, 2008 Posted March 1, 2008 See, this is the reason why I subscribed to Brickmaster! :-D Just one question: will this be available to all subscribers? The article seems to imply that's the case... Quote
kill will Posted March 1, 2008 Posted March 1, 2008 March 3rd! Better sign up now if you want it...... Quote
WesternOutlaw Posted March 1, 2008 Posted March 1, 2008 Awesome! What an excellent little set. I've got to have one for my Jungle Adventure. It will look better than the Scorpion Tracker: I love the dark green. *y* Quote
hollisbrick Posted March 1, 2008 Posted March 1, 2008 Nice, thanks for the pics! If only Brickmaster was not US only. That jeep would look great in Dr. Sinister's army! mm i agree i wish it was available in Aus :'-( it's a great set i wish it was in normal stores |-/ Quote

Cardinal Brick Posted March 1, 2008 Posted March 1, 2008 Time like this I think I should have looked more closely at doing my MA in the States! It Quote
Klaus-Dieter Posted March 1, 2008 Posted March 1, 2008 (edited) Thank you very much for that news and that pictures, gylman! Although I'm not interested in IJ this set looks excellent! 8- Edited March 1, 2008 by Klaus-Dieter Quote

The name of the tyre is "Tyre Quote
Mirandir Posted March 1, 2008 Posted March 1, 2008 We non-USA people will also be able to get our hands on those dark green panels. They're included in this set coming out later this year. Quote
jp-30 Posted March 2, 2008 Posted March 2, 2008 (edited) Screw you, Brickmaster! Here's my attempt... Gallery when moderated (8 images of jeep) Until then, deeplinks; http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/jp-30/in...eep/ijjeep1.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/jp-30/in...eep/ijjeep2.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/jp-30/in...eep/ijjeep3.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/jp-30/in...eep/ijjeep4.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/jp-30/in...eep/ijjeep5.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/jp-30/in...eep/ijjeep6.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/jp-30/in...eep/ijjeep7.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/jp-30/in...eep/ijjeep8.jpg I don't have the flared pieces or 2x2 tiles in dark green, green or even enough in tan, so plain old light grey it has to be... for now. Edited March 2, 2008 by jp-30 Quote
ExoBuilder Posted March 2, 2008 Posted March 2, 2008 That's awesome jp-30! It looks just like the original model. *y* *y* *sweet* Quote
jp-30 Posted March 2, 2008 Posted March 2, 2008 Thanks. I've also redone the windscreen thanks to Morgan19's keen eyes on FBTB.net. I don't have the piece in 4x1 (nor in smokey black as the Brickmaster photo suggests), but two 2x1s work fine. Plus I've now used chrome on the grill, as there's too much grey otherwise. Here are some disassembled views, hopefully enough clarity so you can tell what's going on. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/jp-30/in...ep/ijjeep10.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/jp-30/in...ep/ijjeep11.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/jp-30/in...ep/ijjeep12.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/jp-30/in...ep/ijjeep13.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/jp-30/in...ep/ijjeep14.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/jp-30/in...ep/ijjeep15.jpg Quote
wulf Posted March 2, 2008 Posted March 2, 2008 (edited) Ah shoot, why does it have to be brickmaster why can't they sell it separately I don't want to pay $30 dollars for brickmaster when the rest might crap!I think I might buy the jungle tank and use the green corner pieces (if it has any)that way I'll have the tank and the car.
