Itaria No Shintaku Posted January 10, 2021 Posted January 10, 2021 Ok guys. I know I left eurobricks. But sometimes it's more mature to admit you miss something than to keep your point. Now, to the good part. I've had time, being afar from fights over silly stuff, to build and me and a friend did this.https://ideas.lego.com/projects/f37ee26a-8944-44e1-a29c-573f51bfcbbb/ Took us a lot of time, effort and love as you can see. Please. We really, really need your help to make our little dream come true. Bring us to the 10k club. You have this power, I have not. I was able to gather 722 votes in 3 days, so I'm really starting to believe this can be real. But it can't work without your love and help. You can support, you can leave a comment and you can also share this to increase our chances. I want to believe. Do believe with me, will you guys? Quote
JintaiZ Posted January 11, 2021 Posted January 11, 2021 Nice build! The details are great! It's also great to see you back, just a pity you can't change your username... Quote
Vilhelm22 Posted January 11, 2021 Posted January 11, 2021 Very nice! All of the figures are perfect! I particularly like the Oompa Loompas, Violet Beauregard, Mike Teevee, and Willy Wonka. Supported! And good luck reaching 10k! Quote
Lucarex Posted January 15, 2021 Posted January 15, 2021 Welcome back. We all feel a raw nerve sometimes (especially during these strange times) and the Colosseum discussion was just one of those things. I wasn’t a fan of the set either Seems a lot of WW/CATCF submissions recently. Whilst I really like the design of the chocolate river, sorry to say I’m disappointed you went with the truly awful Burton/Depp remake rather than the original. That’s probably why Charlie and the OLs look completely wrong. Is this the scene after Augustus Gloop has been sucked up the tube? Missed a play feature there. Good luck though! Quote
DarrellBricker Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 This looks spectacular! Nicely done! Will be happy to support! Quote
Robert8 Posted January 22, 2021 Posted January 22, 2021 There is prequel on the works.... It would be good timing you know Quote
leafan Posted February 3, 2021 Posted February 3, 2021 Supported for my old buddy @Former Itaria No Shintaku. Quote
Vilhelm22 Posted February 4, 2021 Posted February 4, 2021 Congrats on 5K @Former Itaria No Shintaku!!!! Looking forward to seeing this reach 10K in the next month (It will!) ! Quote
Clone OPatra Posted February 4, 2021 Posted February 4, 2021 I think your model looks fantastic, and personally I enjoy the Tim Burton Charlie and the Chocolate Factory quite a lot, but given how universally derided it is on the internet and amongst adults generally, I can't see LEGO producing it. A Gene Wilder version is much more likely to be accepted. Why are all of the figures flesh-coloured rather than light flesh? Charlie himself was pretty pasty in the movie. Quote

You are simply, in one word, right. We are editing the project. A purple jacketed-orange hatted- character will soon come in. I hope this will bring more votes. We need those. I hereby thank all the people on Eurobricks. You are my friends. Quote

We received a lot of votes in the last 48 hours just because a lot of people just connected to the ideas site to vote for the 10 years anniversary or see the results of the review. But, now we're back to the normal slow pace. Whoever votes us gives us a smile that you cannot imagine. I want desperately to reach the 10k, it's a me vs me stuff now. So, I personally thank whoever wants to vote me, has voted me or will advice friends/relatives/whoever to vote for me. Quote
Itaria No Shintaku Posted February 5, 2021 Author Posted February 5, 2021 This also is a project of mine: So you can vote this too if you like Quote

Itaria No Shintaku Posted February 8, 2021 Author Posted February 8, 2021 Thanks. Alas the projects really need an help as they are getting stuck and it hurts after all the work and sacrifice I made. Let's wait and see. Maybe a frontpage on Eurobricks would help a lot! Quote

Totally normal if the number of votes per day decreases after it reaches the 5k mark; that happens with almost every project. Right now it seems to be getting about 50 supporters per day so I believe in it. Edited February 10, 2021 by JintaiZ Quote

Fixed the typo, but the general idea is still the same. I've seen projects (not going to call out specific names) reach the 5k mark in less than a month and then support pretty much ends.

BrickBob Studpants Posted February 10, 2021 Posted February 10, 2021 I‘ve supported the project as well I don‘t really mind whether it‘s based on the 1971 version or the 2005 one, both are iconic in their own right. I never understood why the remake is hated as much as it is, it doesn’t deserve it one bit(e) in my opinion. Good luck! Quote

natesroom Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 I concur, a Willy Wonka version would be great, and i would back it. I never liked the Charlie and the Chocolate factory. but the background and graphics can work well with the orange and green hair oompa loompas... Quote
Another Brick In The Wall Posted February 11, 2021 Posted February 11, 2021 No LEGO set has made me as hungry as this has. Quote
Itaria No Shintaku Posted February 11, 2021 Author Posted February 11, 2021 Thanks guys. Well a Wilder Wonka is on stage, but LEGO needs to approve the update, which you can do only monthly so I need to wait and see. Quote
