I still haven’t gotten over the price of my Monopoly board being multiple thoushand quid with brand new parts from the Lego store.
You designed a board entirely from Lego?
Yeah.
According to a post further down, it comes to about ~£3470. The project never made it past the CAD stage. LOL
@the_termin8r And somebody delivers! That LEGO Chester looks so accurate, it’s scary. Anyway, I love Bricklink, but man, is it expensive. Despite this, I’ve made tons of orders on there with more in the future. I’ve made three awesome minifigures with handpicked pieces, bought an official one, and put together an entire BIONICLE figure using Bricklink. There’s also the spare parts here and there. Also, what in the world are you putting into this Monopoly board?!
@jrtrussell Depending on the project and its size, the cost indeed adds up, especially with those cursed shipping costs. Maybe you can buy the parts at certain intervals or set up wish lists and save up for them. Bricklink has a handy wish list feature that allows you to automatically start carts with the least amount of sellers for the least amount of money. Granted, it’s not 100% smooth sailing, but it can speed things up if you don’t like navigating Bricklink.
Umm, Lego? I’m not sure how you want me to answer that lol. I haven’t built it physically and don’t intend to. I’m not crazy to spend that much money on Lego.
@the_termin8r I was just messing around! Yeah, there are plenty of LEGO projects out there that will never come into fruition simply because of price alone. As much as I love LEGO and have spent hundreds on it over the years, there are more important things that require your money.
Lmao. I like the system you developed with the cards. Quite clever. Yea but with all those tiny 1x1s it’ll be a monster to purchase
The mosaic on the cover alone is probably at least 50 quid.
Welcome to the forums @Sybre! And thank you!
Thanks for the tag as well @the_termin8r! I completely forgot that I posted a picture of them on here! An update on them- they unfortunately, still have their pink guitars
Thanks for the welcome! And no problem! I can tell you took this fun little project seriously enough.
The pink guitars would be a real mood killer, especially during the Hybrid Theory/Meteora/Minutes to Midnight days! One Step Closer, Numb, Given Up… Just imagine.
The pink guitar is not a joke. Mike owns a pink hello kitty Fender Squier that he brought out on stage for From The Inside in one show in 2007. He still has the guitar as far as I know in his studio arsenal.
@evooba I learn something new every day! Nice bit of trivia there. If I were Mike, I certainly wouldn’t let that guitar go anywhere.
At an unrealted topic but i would really like to see LP band member emoticons. Chester with his mike screaming away would make a nice one.
Thanks @LP13413! It’s crazy how you can tell how bad and cheap the guitar is, sound is horrible! Haha!
Lol that made my day @LP13413- you are really great with finding stuff
And ofc welcome to the forums @hybridkarl - nice to meet you
I skim it every so often but never want a particular piece enough to go through with buying it, I have considered making LP figures for the band before, but didn’t get very far with the idea, cool to see @AJ_7 already has done it!
Right back at ya!!
I dream of a fresh start. A new forum. With brings in lots and lots of new old LP fans. All those nice people, who comments so passionate under the YouTube vids. Finally more interesting discussions about the band future and mistakes that happened in the past.
