Apareceu: 2003
Produzido atĂŠ: 2003
Catalogado: Bricklink, Peeron

Pode um produto da linha para crianças de 4 anos interessar aos adultos? Sim, pode, se providenciar alguns elementos interessantes. O 4 Juniors foi um tema com sets construídos com peças grandes e juniorizadas. Entre elas, no entanto, podemos encontrar verdadeiros tesouros, como os que hoje damos destaque. O primeiro elemento são os tanques de gasolina, os quais apareceram em apenas dois sets, duas peças em cada. Apesar de não serem muito caras, são extremamente raras.

Nome: Slope, Curved 8 x 6 x 2 Double with Chrome Silver SidesPattern

O segundo elemento, ou elementos, são bricks para construir o tanque de um camião. Apareceu em apenas num único set, um camião tanque, Ê claro. Estes elementos estão praticamente indisponíveis e a única maneira de os obter Ê comprando o set completo.

O Pierre Normandin, um fĂŁ de LEGO do CanadĂĄ, usou este elementos para construir um camiĂŁo de transporte de leite:

 

Reparem como ele escondeu as partes amarelas dos bricks-tanque.

O Pierre tambĂŠm usou os tanques de gasolina neste belo modelo de um camiĂŁo Octan.

Bring Your Favorite Minifig to Work Week - Update

Ooops, I have missed one good photo in my BYFMTWW post. Here’s Noro’s Indiana minifig playing fussbal in Viana:

Run Indy Run!

Sorry Noro!

Double Trouble

I promised myself not to take part in this year’ edition of Colossal Castle Contest. Too busy end of the year for me, to little time to build something good - that’s what I thought. But recently, I had two evenings just for me and I had a story that wanted to be told. So here it is - a castle vignette called Double Trouble:

The most difficult part was making the dwarf hanging right. His center of mass if quite high (above his waist) and he kept turning upside-down. I end up making a special harness for him…

Don Quixote charges the windmill

Gork presents Don Quiote charging the windmill to save Dulcinea. I just love literary references in LEGO creations:

Don Quixote

This one goes into “Act of Chivalry” category of Colossal Castle Contest.

Run for your life!

Run for your life! Cute brown furry monster is demolishing the market square!

Market Maddness

This is recent Rocko’s diorama, built for Colossal Castle Contest. Monster is obviously inspired by Domo-kun, Japan’s NHK television mascot.

Samurai Jack

LUGPol’s ImpreSariO presents Samurai Jack!

If you are not familiar with the movie, here’s the poster:

I cannot believe it took ImpreSariO just a few hours to built it. Great job!

Às vezes não é preciso técnicas muito complicadas ou montes de peças para fazer uma construção com significado. O tadashistate construiu isto para a sua namorada acamada. Que bonito gesto!
