Type Atlas Unit 01 KAI - MA Version

Where did I get the idea for my biggest MOC? After watching @brodan_gundam video about GN Arms Type D, I think it would be cool to make something based on the idea.

In order to attach the Atlas to the Mobile Armour, it took me a while to put together the attachment system. The very original design would make Atlas lay flat, but the structure was very loose and off balance. So I changed the entire thing more vertically thanks to the new attachment mechanism. I would love to make lids for the missile launching box, but with this scale, it is hard to put on more details without looking strange.

I am happy to finally find a way to hand the blade on the MA, so the theoretically, Unit 01 could still hold it after disconnecting with the MA.

Compared to the original, there are more thrusters with more energy tanks. Also, I added some small thrusters, which ideally are for more delicate move.

So, that is it for now. If there are more pieces, crazy ideas, or sudden clicks in my mind, I might be able to modify it more down the road.

P.S. Would any one is interested at the tutorial for the MA? It will be quite a challenge to reverse though🥹🥹😂😂. However, if you guys are into it, I will do my best to make it for you. Let me know!

LEGO Creator Magical Unicorn

This is a LEGO Creator 3-in-1 set (the other two options are a peacock and a seahorse). This was a lot of fun to build! Each step was very different and I loved all of the bright, vibrant colors. This will be a majestic, magical addition to my cubicle.

I miss the old lego creator logo, its just got peak aesthetic, perfectly represents the vibe of playing with legos, love it so much

never seen this logo brought up in regards to 'over simplified logos' but it should rly be the poster child for that imo, look at this downgrade

Built some lego

<ATLAS Unit 01>

I designed this one to be mechanical but don’t want it to be mechanically cold. Yellow hues here complement well with the need, which gave the mecha vibrant characters.

I think more weapon options can be developed, which could become my future project on Unit 01.

For now, I am happy about it.

LEGO On A Budget 2024 Intermission: A Couple Of The New Polybags

Remember when I bought this silly little thing?

Yeah, the amazing Kruidvat-branded bootleg handheld that looks like it was directly ordered from a provider to Temu or AliExpress. Well, that didn't paint the discounter store in the best light, did it? Let's change that with a more positive twist- their LEGO deals are pretty peak.

This is the only place in the Netherlands where i've seen polybags from the year 2024 so far. And as the title of 'discounter store' would imply, they were priced more gently than they would have been elsewhere. 3 bucks a pop! Now, these aren't alllll the polybags, there's a few more that I would appreciate to get so I can truly become the Budget Master (trademark), but this is a solid enough start.

As amazing as it is, My First Duck is out of the equation as a Duplo set. Here's the rest of them!

LEGO City - 30664 Police Off-Road Buggy Car

City, as consistent as clockwork. This is the only time you'll actually see the Police subtheme in my series, and it makes it count. Sorta.

It's 35 pieces, meaning it's easily the least substantial of the bunch, though it's really not all that bad. Hell, it compares favorably to some of the sets that it reminds me of. For one, the police motorcycle from 2005 came with only 28 pieces and was twice as expensive (it surprisingly being in a box probably had to do with it). And hey, it does drive rather nicely and comes with a somewhat uncommon minifigure torso as well as a completely unique 'wanted' poster.

For €3, you could do much worse. I would've liked it as a kid especially, I was never great with the big builds. Curiously, this was the one polybag to come with a vertical instruction manual as well. I'm autistic enough to notice that, hehe.

LEGO Friends - 30659 Flower Garden

Consider this a little preview of what will soon become a common theme on my blog. LEGO Friends is not something I really considered worth my time back in the day. I know, shock horror. But they always stood out negatively since they had the most brutal advertising, with a kid saying 'LEGO Friends' with the weirdest intonation possible. It's like when you would splice in a couple words from another sentence. Brutal.

So color me surprised when I say that I really enjoyed building this one. Clocking in at 64 pieces and therefore beating out the 4+ sets already, though about a quarter of them are already used on the petals of the sunflower. Doesn't matter too much.

The tulip is probably my favorite part, it required few pieces but the end result is very accurate looking. The sunflower is a lil hard to fidget into it's right spot, but is very flexible and that is always a lil fun. Overall, a nice addition to a bigger Friends playfield.

LEGO Creator - 30666 Gift Animals

Okay, so we can all generally agree that Lego Creator 3in1 is the best unthemed catagory for kids, right? They're affordable, rebuildable for a fair amount of time and generally look pretty nice as well. Plenty of sets that are pretty much just off-brand City or Friends escapades. Like this one, Gift Animals. With a whopping 75 pieces, it pretty much rivals what you could do with most sets I have covered as of late, for €7 less. LEGO On A Budget was MADE for sets like these.

The dog is the largest draw, of course. It uses up 71 pieces and is surprisingly very flexible. You can turn it's head so it can look like it's pleading at you with it's googly eyes. Same with the paws, tail and ears, they're all movable parts. I really dig that! It's a good build.

...Yet I should've built it last.

Can someone PLEASE explain to me what this is supposed to represent? I can only think of something among the lines of a bear cub or a weird different dog breed. I need answers! For that reason alone, it goes at the bottom of the Gift Animals tier list.

This is where the slightly disappointing reality set in, the other two builds only use like, two thirds of the available pieces. I mean it sorta makes sense, after all you can't really make 3 things with the same exact, rather obscure pieces. Still a small blemish, imagine if this little polybag would have more pieces used than the most elaborate €10 set. That'd be hilarious and sad.

The squirrel (right???) fares a little better. It's still not using a lot of the pieces, and it's the least flexible animal. On the flipside though, it's way more unique than whatever that previous alien was compared to the dog, and has a decent heft to it thanks to this mammal being a bit of a chonker. I like it a fair amount, gonna make it sniff at the Friends flowers in my little cabinet for this stuff.

And that concludes my escapades with the polybags for now. I'm surprised, really! These are well adapted for the price they are sold at, I would even argue that despite it's shortcomings, the Gift Animals set is a no brainer for the young'ins that don't have a lot of pocket money. Just don't forget that My First Duck will always be the peak of LEGO.
