MatthewParticipantI figured you would.
Im just making the move over to PF because of how uniform it will look with ballast. Plus my plan is to only use it in roads when I manage to LUGBULK parts for MILS roads.
So if you need 9V, I have around 50 straights to trade.
curve would be 1:1 trade.
MatthewParticipantHaha I knew I should have clarified. 1 9V track for 3 PF.
Wont be able to, too much wedding stuff going on.
MatthewParticipantDan as in the one who attended the Penn LUG meeting with your Duplo GBC?
MatthewParticipantWho let you in? haha!!!
MatthewParticipantHis name is Frank… i dont know the store name. And hes at each one in monroville, he has limited items, because like i said, the inventory list that LEGO gives him is not easy to obtain sets and things of the larger sorts… For instance, once sets are released, the dealers get a online website they can choose sets and “x” from. The sets are marked with a stop light at the cart area botton, green for you will get those sets, yellow for you might, and red for its not happening for a long time… He said that even if its green, you can wait up to three months for the sets…
MatthewParticipantHave you been to the Greenberg train show? There is a guy there who im good friends with, hes a lego dealer and travels from show to show and state to state setting up at train shows selling lego products…
MatthewParticipantWhen you have a small list of what is available to a dealer, yes its a lot, because if you have a bunch of sets that dont move at all, spending 10k is a lot… and its not a physical store with brick and mortar, it would be a “mobile” store that moves around just like the greenberg shows…
MatthewParticipantIt would be a mobile store, and it would not be online because the market is too saturated with people who buy low and sell low and make profitability too low to even consider online… I know there are lots of requirements, the biggest one is, the $10,000 min per year purchase, also the fact that lots of the sets and things are not easily obtained…
MatthewParticipantWell still, cause that was funny. Old style rage comics are the best
MatthewParticipantYou made me laugh, have an upvote…
MatthewParticipantI never played a Lego videogame but imma try this one
MatthewParticipantUhh third really
MatthewParticipantHenchman 1: Have we started the fire?
Bane: YesAnd i dont think you know what third party is children… Third party is the companies that make LEGO compat parts… Mega shit (aside for those sick dragons, that i own each set of) are the second party…
After watching reviews for the ALT Bricks, they seem to make a great plastic and overall product is great. Not to mention the colors are a match and/or complimentary. Plus the corner stud face bricks are EXACTLY what i need for another train station im planning! And the architectural elements are very nice
MatthewParticipantthe plastic series came out in febuary, and its presumed that the metal rails are now in production this month… i watch it every week so i dont miss out on the initial run where they gauge the price too low for the demand, plus i plan on buying a good amount for resale.
MatthewParticipantI got on the ME Rails train too late to join the kick starter and get the first access :/ so i have to wait… But when i get more funds, im ordering from albricks because those leaves colors are great and at a good price in my mind
MatthewParticipantWell i was speaking only on aesthetics use only, not structure, so in the case of bricks i would only use LEGO of course but the leaves and new FULL METAL (Alchemist) RAILS are kinda sexy soooooo….
MatthewParticipantSo what you are sating is, you would take your Lego RC rails and cover them with the copper finish or buy all the retired $5(average) 9v rails instead of get the new ME Models rails?
MatthewParticipantYis i was, i know the oath explains it a little, but i was just wondering…
MatthewParticipantDefine snotting for me please! and i saw this today as well, i love the texture they got by using the bricks that way
MatthewParticipantPAINT THINNER! OR LAQUIRE(spelling is hard) THINNER!!!!!!! Just watch out it will melt the ABS and cause streaks, but if you are quick about your work, just apply the thinner(s) to a soft cloth and wipe in a downward motion until its gone, ur good.
MatthewParticipantYeah i presumed that to be true. But as myself i have not added any myself. I have some adjustment room but im not sure yet.
MatthewParticipantI knew the blue was going away, but i feel that it’ll be back very soon. But the new color just irks me.
MatthewParticipantThe engine swings out id say about 4 to five studs when he uses it on my layout, its the new logging train because he takes out all my trees… Keep in mind that its also a 8 wide system not the typical 6 wide from LEGO. Still awesome!
Did you post the picture of it with my Santa Fe cars?
MatthewParticipantLove them both! Very nice stuff! i need to get some of the dark blues and olive greens for this type of work, plus doors and windows! i just hope you didn’t tare apart the actual market street and green grocer for the parts, that would just kill me inside because i don’t have either of those!
MatthewParticipantI plan on doing both a pizza shop and a Dunkin Doughnuts Modular building, both separate and 32×32 stud. I already bought three pizza guys from series 12 haha! and i have the pink and orange brick for the DD! just need tan real bad for DD
