kahir88 Posted May 1, 2019 Posted May 1, 2019 So in short, pick a set, and modify, upgrade it, to become a legacy set? Quote
TheNerdyOne_ Posted May 1, 2019 Posted May 1, 2019 I was really excited for this contest until I saw that no digital entries are allowed. Oh well, perhaps next time! Quote

Steven the toa of flight Posted May 2, 2019 Posted May 2, 2019 Oh I have idea, so for the contest can we make mini versions of sets? Quote

Steven the toa of flight Posted May 3, 2019 Posted May 3, 2019 Neat I am going to try and build the ultra sonic raider from season 2 Quote
Exetrius Posted May 3, 2019 Posted May 3, 2019 It's a Ninjago contest (I can't even remember when we last had one)! Niiice! Given Ninjago is my absolute favorite theme, I guess I'll have to enter, right? I have too many unfinished WIPs already, but who knows... Quote
Peppermint_M Posted May 3, 2019 Author Posted May 3, 2019 We have awesome prizes You can build! I have some more surprises for the coming weeks... Quote
Garmadon Posted May 4, 2019 Posted May 4, 2019 Oooh, here's something that can't be passed up!

I assume that it makes no real difference which of the possibilities you pick, i.e., whether the build's inspiration has been featured in a set before or not? Quote

None at all, as long as it is in the spirit of a Legacy set, it will be eligible to enter. Quote

We can make a fully fleshed out MOC of a location/vehicle/thing, right? Or does it have to be believable as a set to some extent? Quote

Or does it have to be believable as a set to some extent? I'd be interested about this too. Is set style sought after? Can entry be on different than minifig (or mini) scale if the creation is still clearly of same subject than the original set? Or is it all up to voters? I like this contest. Ninjago theme has had so many interesting and excellent set designs during its long run. I'm on trip around Europe half of the contest time but I might come up with something. At least there's lot of inspiration to begin with. Ninjago is cool. EDIT: And an additional question: Does sets from Ninjago Movie count? Brickset for example seems to divide it as a different theme. Edited May 4, 2019 by Pate-keetongu additional question Quote
Peppermint_M Posted May 4, 2019 Author Posted May 4, 2019 I am leaving it up to voters on those counts. Really, this is our dream versions of Ninjago sets. Build cool things! Share cool MOCs! Quote

JJ Tong (zfogshooterz) Posted May 6, 2019 Posted May 6, 2019 (edited) Just curious and for some confirmation, is it only the three winners gets the tag? Edited May 6, 2019 by JJ Tong (zfogshooterz) Quote
Peppermint_M Posted May 6, 2019 Author Posted May 6, 2019 Winners get a tag. But there will be other opportunities to earn one Quote

Just to make sure exactly how much time I've got left, I assume this means that all of Friday is open for entries and that the deadline ends at midnight between the 31st and 1st, correct? I hope to have my entry done before then anyhow (me entering at the last minute?! ), but it'd be handy to get some clarification just in case. Thanks in advance! Quote
Peppermint_M Posted May 27, 2019 Author Posted May 27, 2019 Midnight Friday. So between the 31st and 1st. Heck, I close the thread on the morning of Saturday, so some can squeak in. Quote
Pirean_Grammaticul Posted May 27, 2019 Posted May 27, 2019 And just to confirm, my entry (orig. 70756): Not too shabby, I hope. Quote
samurai-turtle Posted May 28, 2019 Posted May 28, 2019 Just to confirm entry here is my second rate attempt at this contest. I hope everything is correct. Quote
