Deadline for the event kit is Jan. 31st, 2012. The winner must provide detail photos of their submission, or a CAD file, so we can make building instructions of the idea. The winner will receive credit in the 2012 program, a 50 dollar LEGO gift card and a complimentary Event Kit. Prizes will be awarded during the 2012 event, if the winner can not attend, their prizes will be sent to them after the event at our expense.

Lego Sunglasses is my son's idea for the 2012 Event Kit Build. Pics are below. He indicates that the design pictured is for a kid sized shades - they can be sized for larger faces by including one more vertical row of bricks on either side of the frame, including lenses. Please note that the designer for this is Sammy Hankins - email is julie@searchpointsourcing.com

Here is my first attempt at an event kit:



I substuted a few parts, as they were not in my parts libary in mlcad. and his boots would be dark brown :)

Jeff VW

oh and he would have an elastic bad from his left arm pit to his right sholder (and I may add hair)

---

Jeff VW

He's faster than a speeding spinner.
Stronger than a 9v train.
And able to leap over a Jamie Modular in a single bound!

He's SUPER FETE

To go with the HEROES theme.

(Dammit, Jeff you beat me by 12 hours).

SI-mocs

---

Jeff VW

yes, this one's very good, but not what i was expecting to see next! you always save the best for last. stop keeping these people in suspense!

Chickadee

They are OK, I guess.

The colour of the CN tower is not what I would expect when I think Cement Tower

For a blue Jay, the #3 entry is again, not quite the right colours, and why is that white bear eating a fish? Black bears eat cans of soup I trek into Algonquin Park even after I put my food in the tree

Im not sure how to say this, without being rude, but...

Busker, do you have a pic of the polar bears butt? Not sure how it is designed and I'm curious.


Uh Chris, I think that "blue jay" is a "chickadee" and I think your city let all the pigeons eat them.

Chris, I would agree with you regarding the CN Tower, and I initially made it using light gray. But it didn't really look right to me, and some photos make it actually seem a little more tan than gray.

Janey, pdf and mpd files can be found at the bottom of this page: http://www.truedimensions.com/lego
They should give you all the construction info you need.

The tail is just a 1x1 round brick upside down on the arm of a 1x2 plate with arm - http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=4623

Oh sorry, I should have just looked at the mpd file. Thanks.

Tell that to Janey. I had to get into a fist fight with her, and sadly I lost. she hits HARD!!!!

I'm like you can't make it grey cause the bricks are too shiny and won't look like cement.

and shes like Duh Chris, grey is grey, and cement is Grey

and Im like your wrong

and she is like

POW - right in the kisser.

it hurt

Thus ending the argument

Hrm - that didn't work properly... perhaps I try again?

Darn it - that time I didn't even hit post... drats - I should stay away from posting perhaps?

http://gramblorg.blogspot.com/2012/01/lego-parliament.html

Is there an editing feature for these posts? Hahah

So - my last 'spamming' post, I promise!

Just wanted to say thank you for the opportunity to submit, and that I am excited for Brickfete this year.

I want to reiterate that once again, I'm not sure if all of the pieces in my kit are still in production - not sure how to check - but will understand if it is disqualified.

That being said, it is designed to be exactly 100 pieces, including the baseplate.

No, please dont stay away from posting!

We have no editing feature (by design) however, we normally have a "delete" button that works as long as no one has posted after you. We will reinstate it soon.

I have deleted your post that didnt work for you.

Thanks Janey - the second post could also probably be deleted, as I seem to have messed up the link in that one as well...

Sure, no problem.
