Seasider Posted December 26, 2019 Posted December 26, 2019 Max’s world doesn’t have zombies just Tribes of people. Just look at cars from Fury Road or Thunderdome. Spikes on wheels or over the body shell. Not many guns Quote

Tcm0 Posted December 28, 2019 Posted December 28, 2019 What about hitechnic sensors? They have been sold through the official lego store and have the shape of original lego sensors What about sd cards (for the ev3)? You need one to use specific operating systems like ev3dev (unofficial) or micropython (official) What about usb hardware for the ev3 like wifi dongles and bluetooth dongles that were not made by lego (but in case of the wifi dongle officially supported)? What about 3rd party hardware to run powered up programs like tablets with the official app or pcs with unofficial software? Quote
Jim Posted December 28, 2019 Author Posted December 28, 2019 We usually don’t have any EV3 contestants. I’m okay with dongles and sd cards etc to run custom software on the EV3. Other than that, I like to know the specific setup. Quote
Marxpek Posted December 30, 2019 Posted December 30, 2019 Lovely, Mad Marx you ask, Mad Marx you get! Can we use Bionicle parts? it started out as Technic, but.. Quote
Jim Posted December 30, 2019 Author Posted December 30, 2019 You can use some, but please don’t turn it into a Bionicle MOC. Quote
Seasider Posted December 30, 2019 Posted December 30, 2019 I was thinking I may use a few bionicle parts to spruce up the exterior decoration, for a bit of detailing Quote
Jim Posted December 30, 2019 Author Posted December 30, 2019 That is obviously fine. After all, those Bionicle parts look like things you would find in the Wastelands Quote
Marxpek Posted December 30, 2019 Posted December 30, 2019 Thanks Jim, the bionicle parts will be used to spike/spice it up a bit, the base will of course be Technic. Quote
Maaboo the Witch Posted December 30, 2019 Posted December 30, 2019 Some Bionicle parts, like the Bohrok eye, are pretty commonplace in Technic now anyway. And look at 8264, which uses Toa Ignika thigh panels in its engine. Quote
blackdeathgr Posted December 30, 2019 Posted December 30, 2019 Definitely not a technic fan (a cannon and a sloop is what I would have built for the wastelands) but I faved this topic because it is really as cool as Antarctica!!! Eagerly waiting for your ideas/builds guys! Quote
dhc6twinotter Posted January 1, 2020 Posted January 1, 2020 I really like the idea behind this contest! Sounds great! I haven't built anything in a few years, but I might have a go at this contest, if time permits. Quote
Leonardo da Bricki Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 When I lived in California, there was a guy in town who had made a larger-than-life Radio Flyer wagon that could seat 8 people, and somehow, he got it motorized AND THEN got it street legal. Had plates and everything... So yeah, I think you could totally do this and survive the apocalypse. Quote
The_Tinkerer Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 Does it have to be a desert wasteland, or could we build something meant for snow instead? If Australia turned into a desert, than the US could be covered by a glacier. Quote
lcvisser Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 Antartica is a desert... Plenty of snow. Quote
The_Tinkerer Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 But Antarctica is also uninhabited. I was thinking about creating a half-track dune(drift?) buggy, meant to outrun rather than fight. Weapons optional. Quote

msk6003 Posted January 4, 2020 Posted January 4, 2020 Is it possable use with offical lego product? like use 42078 and color and shape changing. Quote

In Dutch I would say "Wat denk je zelf?!". In English I will stick to "No". The purpose of the contest is to create a MOC not a MOD. Of course, you can use certain techniques, but please refrain from copying official models. Quote

Seasider Posted January 5, 2020 Posted January 5, 2020 Good to see a lot more WIP threads for this completion than the Mars one. I’ll hopefully post a starter image this afternoon. Quote
