What are you building right now?

I can't figure out how to get the video from my phone to here! Sorry.

I don't believe it's possible to directly upload video to the forum. Either the video would have to be uploaded to a video sharing site (like YouTube, Vimeo, etc) or put in a shared public folder like on Dropbox or Google Drive and that link shared.

In other words, it's a lot more involved than just simply sharing a photo.

@560Heliport
I have all 4 Unitron sets and they are among my favorite space subtheme. It's too bad they were limited to just 4 sets.  I have a monorail running between each end of my city, and ended up getting the track from #6399 Airport Shuttle from someone who posted an advertisement for them here on Brickset and actually lived very close to me. I think it was a hundred bucks total, which I could've easily spent on just the straight track pieces. Later that night I was showing the monorail track to a friend who was over for drinks and explained how rare those sets are and how expensive they'd become on the secondary market. I was showing him the listings on eBay and there was #6991 for a buy-it-now of $175.00. One hundred seventy five dollars. All the other ones for sale were 5, 6 hundred bucks. We looked at each other and my buddy says "Mark, click the button." It arrived a few days later almost entirely complete save for a few odds and ends bits. I can't rebuild it in its entirety as the motor and sleds are being used and I'd have to take the train apart, but I know it's there waiting if I ever do. Also, #1789 Star Hawk II is one of my all time favorite sets. 

You've inspired me to consider filling gaps in my subthemes.  I am missing several M:Tron and Space Police II sets and am concerned that TLG's increasing meddling with BrickLink will make that into something that is no longer a viable option. But that's a discussion for a different thread.

Assembling CMFs one bag at a time isn't as fun as mixing em all up first.

#6991 Monorail Transport Base. It's a beautiful spring day.

nooooooooo get that out of the evil sunlight.......

560Heliport

It was only out there for a few minutes! 

Modeltrainman

@560Heliport thanks for the pictures! When did these come out? I vaguely remember being fascinated by them in a catalog with #2152 on it.(I was 8, so 23 years ago, but I thought these are older than me?)

560Heliport

The Unitron monorail #6991 came out in 1994, the other three Unitron sets in 1995. They could well have been in a 1997 Shop@Home catalog!

My 'Egg Plant' for the LEGO House contest. Still need to figure out how to take better pictures.,..

^^^^^ I haven't been outside yet.

What's an 'outside'?

560Heliport

@SumoLego you can go outside and play after you finish painting the basement.

560Heliport

Today's builds: what I call the "Green Windshield" subset of Classic Space. I really wish I had #6940 Alien Moon Stalker.

I'm clearly never leaving my house.  Maybe I should actually start building some sets!

I've also decided to put a drop ceiling in my basement as well.  That should keep me occupied until COVID-32: Electric Boogaloo.

I was planning on building 918 tomorrow... do you have all three?

JudgeChuck

Nice, @560Heliport! :-)

I really must rebuild all of mine at some point.

560Heliport

@KungFuKenny no, just 924. But I have a lot of the other early Classic Space. I remember trying to build a 924 with parts from #462 , #493, and the rest of my bricks. I used the 4x4 radar dishes for the main engines. 

JudgeChuck

I just realised that I gave @KungFuKenny the "like" that should have been yours, @560Heliport! I have rectified that and, being the nice chap that I am, I've left KFK with his as well.

If we're not going to get a post of original Classic Space from @560Heliport, I'm going to shamelessly plug my own, with an old pic! ;-)

Mr_Cross

LEGO space makes me happy. THERE, I've said it! I don't necessarily think LEGO should reintroduce it, but I'd be over the Moon if they did! ;-)

560Heliport

I'll post more Classic Space, I promise! I haven't built them all yet.

4842 a big mix box of kid lego that i was enthusiastic about but now sore knees ,tired eyes , and missing pieces ,I'm enjoying the build but missing pieces is a killer ,2 manuals and the pieces and manual for left section is missing, I made most of the city sets but there's marvel ,batman and line ranger in there too, I'll try getting rid of them as they're built  ,won't be expecting much -it's clean but kid played and broken up

I just put a bunch of white parts in hydrogen peroxide under the blacklight, so the rest of my Classic Space will have to wait a bit. I might build #6769 Fort Legoredo tonight.

560Heliport

Modeltrainman

I have that one! Or, well the 2002 reissue. I guess mine is #6762.

Cymbeline

@560Heliport Wow that set looks brand new and a lot of fun. Kind of like a western castle.

My son built this Sta Barbara mission facade for a school project.  He is very proud!  I was a consultant ;)

MaffyD

That looks great! Well done to your son - and great consultation @bluedragon
:-)

Resident evil game figs but waiting on parts. Tofu was nice and easy though.

^ I'm impressed with your fantasy re-animated minifigure.  

Definitely not a monster.  Should not be categorized as a monster.

My thoughts exactly!

This is what happens when you can't find the instructions, I give you #70615 Fire Mech.

560Heliport

I don't know what to build tonight... more Classic Space? More Western? Vikings? Pirates? This stay-at-home stuff would be a lot harder without my half-million LEGO!

Pirates and western!

Well, I'm done with work for the week, so if not tonight, then tomorrow!

#10151 with some minor changes & all blue swapped for white.

Western was such a fun theme! Thanks for sharing @560Heliport! You're right about the train, it does fit in perfectly.

Modeltrainman

@pxchris @560Heliport
As a train nut, I should like to point out that it needs proper steam locomotive driving wheels. Then it will fit in "perfectly". :p  

gelkster

The life-size Lego cat is very realistic!

560Heliport

@Modeltrainman so you want me to tear apart #75955 just for its wheels? Okay, but the HP fans might hate you for it... :-)

panchox1

is that train in the photo a moc or a set?

Modeltrainman

@560Heliport , nah, B&P!

560Heliport

@panchox1 it's #4534, #10013, #10014, and #10015.
