>>10001395Read it if you want, don't read it if you don't.
>>10001400I won't. I'm going to in fact do as I please, and I'm absolutely thrilled that it upsets you. I'll keep doing whatever I want and there's nothing you can do to stop me. You have to suffer me.
>>10001411Tell me about it. I wish I had the parts inventory to be able to pursue it then. At least I can do it now.
>>10001416Yes, the proportion is very small, I currently own 3 of them. The base you posted is currently sitting unbuilt on my desk, and is the upcoming one I'm going to post.
>>10001421I didn't have any CS growing up, but bases for LEGO and even other toys were always my favorite. Alas, I never had enough parts as a kid to get a decent base going.
>>10001447Nice build man. Some details about this faction?
>>10001455I have their smaller base, going to build it in the coming future.
In the meantime, here's a MOC I did a while ago.
>>10001637>There's nothing present in current LEGO sets that's preventing you from creating your own stories like thisThat's true, and yet, I'm sure you're aware human nature takes you down the path of least resistance. If a label/story is attached to something it takes a higher amount of mental effort to "reshape" the narrative around said product. I'm not saying it isn't possible, I'm just saying it's not as easy as having been delivered a blank slate. You can of course take modern sets, throw away all of their "baggage" or even use them strictly as part packs.
I do that, opting for headswaps and other changes to suit my particular sensibilities.
I do not want TLG to raise my kids for me, I was simply enjoying the idea of having things the way they used to be, when people had more agency.
Money certainly talks louder than forums, I don't disagree with you. That doesn't mean we can't appreciate things.
