Speed Champions scaled monster truck - Bricklink Designer Program Series 11.

The set includes 1 minifigure and a spare wheel, and offers plenty of play features:
• Working steering (via a wheel under the truck bed) with +/-20 degrees of turn
• Openable tailgate
• Pivoting rear axle that mimics suspension. For display, tilt it onto its spare wheel for a cool, dynamic pose
• Removable roof for easy access to the single-seat cabin

Hello everyone!

I saw this vehicle on a show and added it to my list of things that can be made from LEGO. This is the German interwar Hanomag 2/10 PS car, nicknamed "Kommissbrot" (military bread) because of its shape.

When I was imagining how to build this model, I thought the fender flares from the Cars series would work perfectly. But they turned out to be too small for the wheels, so I used the parts LEGO often uses for ATVs.

In the end, I got this tiny thing with 50 pieces.

What do you think about it?

What does everyone think?

I recently put in some more floating shelves and wanted to display a pair of Lego cars, but at that height they disappear so I made a couple of risers that slot into gaps below each model and hold them up at an angle.

Parts are symmetrical so the pegged plates can be flipped to hold the cars in either direction. I had intended to glue the pieces together, but press-fit holds them in place firmly.

Files available for Lego 42083 Bugatti Chiron and Lego 42056 Porsche 911. (and a huge thank you to the two people who produced the CAD version of the cars — it saved so much time in trying to measure out peg placement!)

I ordered my first technic set yesterday: The CaDA RUF GT, which is basically a Porsche 991. From what I heard, it comes in different versions with more or less stickers and blue pins.

The seller told me that the version that I ordered comes with blue pins but without stickers (which would be far better than the other way round ‒ excited to see if this is true).

I found the instructions online, but unfortunately they do not include a part list. Surprisingly, you don't see the blue pins in the instructions on the cover or in the finished build, although they are impossible to miss irl.

Apart from the blue pins, the parts that disturb me the most are the yellow engine parts (crankshaft) and the orange/white differential (see 2nd picture), as they can be seen from below. I know that colorful engines, gearboxes etc. are very normal, but I just don't like it.

Because I plan to replace (some of) these parts with black ones, I made this list that contains basically all parts that are not black or gray:

Part,Color,Quantity
43093,1,34
6558,1,130
41677,14,9
85546,14,1
2780,4,2
24316,28,15
15462,28,5
6587,28,2
6589,19,4
32556,19,12
32002,19,8
32269,19,1
99008,19,4
3749,19,2

The differential parts are unique to CaDA and have the numbers JM0095 and JM0096 ‒ Don't think they are available in a more decent color, unfortunately.

If you don't want the gold stripes, you would need 4x18944 in black (they also come in all black in this set ‒ without the ugly notches that the LEGO ones have).

Will keep you updated when the order arrives!

Part 2 of the LEGO Porsche 934 RSR series, built with LEGO pieces, inspired by classic endurance racing, Le Mans history, and period-correct Porsche motorsport design.

This time the model really starts getting shape, the blue rear bumper goes on, the roof line comes together, and the iconic front bumper is finally installed.

This particular Porsche 934 RSR raced at the 1976 Le Mans 24 Hours, and recreating those classic racing details in LEGO has been one of the most satisfying parts of this build so far.

The silhouette is starting to look unmistakably Porsche, stay tuned for the final!

Ford Falcon TE50, Chevy Caprice Police Interceptor and Pontiac Bonneville SSEi

This build is made of parts from the Lego set 76912 Dom's '70 Dodge Charger R/T

(Except the wheels it just for cosmetics but I had always liked some of Mattel's Brick shop wheel covers and rims)

I have no instructions for it but I always wanted to make one since there is no known build for this car.
