barman Posted October 15, 2013 Posted October 15, 2013 I would love to enter, but with Legoworld in the Netherlands coming, I have already been building like grazy to get everything ready and a lot of parts are already in my MOCs for on display. Talking about Transformers has given me a great idea... Oh well, better luck next time. November is already taken, so sadly got no time for this competition. If any of you are going to Legoworld and you are a Transformers fan, than I got something you might like...??? Quote

I have been waiting for you to create a (new) transformer since I saw your Youtube proof of concept a few years ago. It's probably still in my Top-5 all time favorite Technic creations. So yeah....I will be visiting you at Legoworld! Quote

If you liked my prototype so mush, be sure to bring a chair and a drool bucket... Quote

TechnicHead41 Posted October 16, 2013 Posted October 16, 2013 After reading this thread, i might participate in this contest. Thats why i asked those questions about to build a track cab. I have got a special truck under ways, but not entirely sure that i have got the first truck under the parts limit per unit (forgot to count during build ) but i think i am close to it. Quote

I that case, the 8109 wasn't such a good example It's 1115 pieces, so you can only use half of them. http://www.brickset....ail/?Set=8109-1 Looking at this model with 1115 pieces I realize it's a pretty tough contest Quote
M_longer Posted October 16, 2013 Posted October 16, 2013 Does the vehicle load counts as part of the model? For example, 500 of 1x1 DBG plates on a tipper? Quote
Jim Posted October 16, 2013 Author Posted October 16, 2013 Does the vehicle load counts as part of the model? For example, 500 of 1x1 DBG plates on a tipper? No it doesn't. That's considered background or scenery Quote
weavil Posted October 16, 2013 Posted October 16, 2013 Does the vehicle load counts as part of the model? For example, 500 of 1x1 DBG plates on a tipper? A+ for effort. Kept waiting for that too get asked. LOL. But what if all 3 have 350 pieces each, can I add 150 unnecessary pins to each one? Just kidding. Quote
M_longer Posted October 16, 2013 Posted October 16, 2013 (edited) Ok, thanks for clarification, but I have another question... Each model should be different. It means that I can not make two models that represents same type of machine, but not identical or two identical copies? And if two of these models work a bit different, but they do the same work (it is important for me, because in real life they work in pairs), they will be accepted? If not I will search for another set of vehicles... Edited October 16, 2013 by M_longer Quote
BobSmithHello55 Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Remember,these don't don't have to be vehicles. Quote
Matt The Tuba Guy Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 (edited) I may join in. My current thoughts: a building under construction, a tower crane or crawler crane for building the building, and a truck with crane for carrying materials. The building will probably use a lot of large pieces (5x11 panels and the gray technic frames), and it will be rather empty and probably gray (like it is built with concrete). Basically I will try and build a structure as big as possible with only 500 parts. To keep with the Technic theme, I will probably add a functional lift. The crane may or may not be motorized, but it will use a full battery pack as a weight (does that count as 1, 3 or 9 parts?). possible colours: red/white, red/black, yellow. Is non LEGO string acceptable? The truck will probably be a single piece truck with a crane (like 8258 but smaller and proportionately longer), probably red or black.

Jim Posted October 17, 2013 Author Posted October 17, 2013 The battery pack is just a single part. You can use non Lego strings. Unless there are objections, I will update the rules. Ok, thanks for clarification, but I have another question... Each model should be different. It means that I can not make two models that represents same type of machine, but not identical or two identical copies? And if two of these models work a bit different, but they do the same work (it is important for me, because in real life they work in pairs), they will be accepted? If not I will search for another set of vehicles... They could do the same work, as long as they are not identical. That would be no fun. If you need more clarification, send me a PM. Remember,these don't don't have to be vehicles. True! I would love to see some non-vehicular models. I've got my votes ready Quote
Nike 2101 Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 I have question about description (Create three small-to-medium sized models which relate to or interact with each other and preferably display them in their operating environment or natural habitat) can i take photos оn white background?

Alasdair Ryan Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 I have a question,since I am running out of time to build any thing.Can I enter the box below? There is defiantly three models in there somewhere. I can remove some parts if it is over the piece count if it is allowed. Quote
Alasdair Ryan Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 I would have to think about that That sounds promising...... Quote

What if I split mine into three boxes? Quote
