Commander Sasha Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 In a thread last week regarding proxy etiquette, I mentioned my son's Lego Landraider; the side view is almost exactly LR sized, as we had a side from one in a bits box; without a whole model, we had to guess the width, and it came out a bit wide, but the Lego Tracks are 5 pips wide. We also have alternative sponsons for Freem and Fry. The pottery class monolith I also mentioned got broken by the kid sister last week, and the distraught 10 yr old had binned the bits before I could take photos :o Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/177069-lego-landraider/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Commander Sasha Posted August 30, 2009 Author Share Posted August 30, 2009 Too cool. Now for an encore, lets see a Lego drop pod! I might have to give him a hand with that one: Lego doesn't lend itself to 72' angles very well..!

Terminatorinhell Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 maybe for the lego drop pod, for the base you can use those wing like parts that are like triangles with two corners cut straight?

IronWinds Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I hate proxies, but that I would be fine with. I'm also fien with models built out of plasticard. If it looks 90% like it is suppose to, is the right size, and has the right weapons without any explanation then throw it on the table all you like :cuss . maybe for the lego drop pod, for the base you can use those wing like parts that are like triangles with two corners cut straight? Actually with legos a drop pod wouldn't be to hard. probably easier than building it with other things. With the lego star wars, lego batman, etc. I've actually wondered what lego 40k would be like. thank you for completing the first step to seeing my dream come trye :P . Well actually there is a guy who built an emperator titan out of legos, but that is another story and way to much.

chromedog Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Brilliant. I rebuilt one of my landspeeders with lego (my Typhoon) after my sister's Rottweiller dog thought it was a snack and chomped it in twain. This is a combination of Win+awesome.

lotsa_terminators Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 There's actually a website devoted to making 40k models out of LEGO, you should post this on there! As a fellow Lego enthusiast (ohmyEmperor so many hours as a kid building stuff), that Land Raider is pretty great, I would be dissapointed if you/your son didnt use it in a game!

Solid Zaku Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 My brother loved Legos, but he stopped doing it years ago. I must smack him into doing that LRC.
