Aredhel Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 Hey there, two weeks ago I was on holiday in Belgium. While walking around Oostende many children walked around with Lego bags and so I tried to find out where they were coming from. What I was finding was a cinema in Oostende where children could take part in a building contest... All around the place were glass boxes which presentes different themes as we know from the Lego shops (like a Star Wars box, one for the Ninjago topic and the Police building). At another part of that cinema there were very many nice builds I wanted to show you. Click here for the pics in my BS gallery. Some impressions follow here: This pic shows painting of walls Another one shows a nice made monkey with a sandwich... One of my favourites is the following one: The snake in that pic was motorised and turned around in circles. I really love the making of the cats! Hope you enjoy this little finding! -Aredhel PS: Sorry for the flash lights in the glass, but it was too dark to make decent pictures without it :wacko: Quote
Hoboman Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 Nice find. I love the cats and the tea cup in the palm reader MOC. Thanks for sharing this with us. Quote
Aredhel Posted July 24, 2011 Author Posted July 24, 2011 They look cool, but where is the snake?? D The snake is on the sofa ... Quote
Hoboman Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 The snake is on the sofa ... Funny, I thought that was steam from a cup of tea. It looked like the pot in the background had the same grey as well. Quote
Big Cam Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 Is it just me or is there a lot out dust on the least picture? Still cool that you just stumbled upon it. Quote
dr_spock Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 Nice find. The last display does look a bit dusty. Ever try bathing a cat? Quote
Aredhel Posted July 25, 2011 Author Posted July 25, 2011 Nice find. The last display does look a bit dusty. Ever try bathing a cat? Lol, well I guess that exactly is the problem Quote
Alec Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 Great find there! I like the cats, always think Lego animals look good! Quote
LuxorV Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 Incredible! Believe it or not, I saw most of these same builds like 10-15 years ago (just look at all that dust ) in a shopping mall in Italy! I perfectly remember the fortune teller and the weight lifters' ones for example. They must have been traveling through Europe in the meantime. Thanks for sharing Aredhel Quote
Miss Kyle Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 Ooooh, the cats!!! Thanks for sharing, this is pretty awesome! Quote
airsoftg36c Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 That's pretty cool! I wish the motivation level in the US was high enough for people to make massive displays like that and put them in malls, etc. Quote
HighFlyer Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 Wow awesome find! I went to Oostende too, on holiday to Brugges, Belgium Unfortunately I didn't come across this It was 4 years ago, however... Quote
RichardRobins Posted September 25, 2011 Posted September 25, 2011 I saw these displays some 18 years ago in Newport south wales (i was like 7-8) It seems they have really been around! Quote
