January 7, 201411 yr Great contest! I'd love to break out my old Pirate stuff again for this. Anyone still looking for a partner?
January 7, 201411 yr Author Eurobricks Emperor ooh, this looks great! Am I allowed to participate, even though the contest has started? Of course you are! As you can see there are a number of people looking still for a partner. I'm sure one of those would be happy to team up. Drop them a PM (or maybe they'll respond to you here in this topic).
January 9, 201411 yr Am i correct in thinking that the set should be based on a €75 or $85 pricepoint? If so (unless many rare/expensive elements/colours appear) the set should ideally be around 850 parts? This is going by the 10 cents per peice ratio that most non license sets follow these days Edited January 9, 201411 yr by Legonardo
January 9, 201411 yr I guess our emperor won't mind if some 85$ sets will be actually look more like 100$ sets with a discount

January 10, 201411 yr I'm slightly late to the party but the modular aspect and designing "sets" rather than "dios" happens to be my area; see my posts in the Historic forums. PM me if anyone is interested in teaming up.
January 10, 201411 yr Hello, after a short dark age time, I am back to Lego and I was waiting for a stimulus and this looks like great opportunity and fun as well. Anyone still looking for a teammate? My old MOCs in my brickshelf gallery: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?m=marian19 I am from Slovakia, German language is no problem as well.
January 11, 201411 yr Author Eurobricks Emperor Can we use third party items like BrickArms in our entries? Yes you can! (this was actually in the contest rules, see first post of this topic)
January 11, 201411 yr (this was actually in the contest rules, see first post of this topic) My apologies for not catching that before! Thanks for the reply! Edited January 11, 201411 yr by Louie le Brickvalier
January 11, 201411 yr Sweet! Well, I need a partner, so if someone wants to shoot me a pm... ; ) I'll be your partner, Matt. :)
January 12, 201411 yr This post has the answer. Also have a look at the link in the answer. no disrespect or anything but on shop at home US that set costs $69USD (~55 euro)
January 12, 201411 yr Well that set is 69,99€ on most european S@H and yes the rules are a bit tricky. It should say 75 Euro (70 US dollar). You know the US price thingy I don't want to start here again ... Anyway a rough piece count limit would be way better which I presume is around 700 +- 50.

Next time I'll just provide a piece count instead of price point as indeed prices vary a lot per country. In any case, aim at 700 pieces +- 100.
January 13, 201411 yr Awesome! :) Unfortunately I don't have the time to participate. :/ Looking forward to see the entries tho :) Edited January 13, 201411 yr by inashu
January 15, 201411 yr Anyone else looking for a partner? I'd really like to compete, but I don't have a partner.
January 15, 201411 yr A collaborative contest is a brilliant idea guys, that’s a great way of reinforcing the community spirit and having people connect. Merging pictures of the two parts in a single view will likely be a challenge but that’s bridge we will cross when we get there. In the meantime, it is my pleasure to announce that 6kyubi6 (France) and myself (USA) are a team! Good luck to all and may the best team win!
January 22, 201411 yr would I be able to build with someone if they live in the same country as me but not the same state?? anyone wanna team up with me? I recently purchased 2000+ pieces for water for another build but could postpone thar for this!!? PM anyone interested! Also does it have to look like a Lego set or can it be clearly a moc?? What I have in mind would CLEARLY have to be a moc :P
January 22, 201411 yr Author Eurobricks Emperor would I be able to build with someone if they live in the same country as me but not the same state?? Australia is a very big country, like the US, so another state will be fine (US gets the same deal - see contest rules) Also does it have to look like a Lego set or can it be clearly a moc?? What I have in mind would CLEARLY have to be a moc :P That's entirely up to you and your (future) partner. But keep in mind that the contest is decided by public vote.
