Lego RX-7
 
5 Attachment(s)
I had a free week and I decided to create a model of the FC in Lego.
I used the Lego digital designer software because I don't have that much parts I needed for the model.
the scale should be around 1/24 when assembled. Lego is not known for getting ultra-detailled models, but I think it looks good.
around 420 parts :)

You must build it first. Then the applause will come.

hard to distingush it as an FC, has that celica supra style front end But thats cool i didnt know Lego had software for people to make their own stuff.. and just being a matter of going out and buying all 420 pieces lol

i think if you design it they will sell it to you as a kit rather than you having to go hunt down each part. Pretty nifty really. Way to go lego....leggo my eggo? wait what.

lmbo......i love it

Looks awesome. The rear is a little weird though. Its hard to get an accurate look because its such a small scale (1/24). But still awesome work.

driftxsequence 06-27-10 07:39 AM

Porsche 944?

Ydna 06-27-10 05:35 PM

yeah I also want to change the front, but it is hard to form the OEM spoiler, I think I will change it.
@championadrien: what should I change on the rear?

btw: Lego does offer to send all parts of the models created by the LDD software including package and manual styling. But for this model it would cost around $85, which is also the reason I only posted the 3D images.

yeah, it's really sad how expensive legos are these days.

also, are you the same Ydna as on pbnation and shocker owners?

nope, it is just "Andy" written backwards :)

here is a different front, which should look more stock

As a child to teenager, I ate, breathed, and dreamed about legos. My question is, how would you physically build this part? It's one thing to do it on a computer, but I don't know of any brick that can make an angle like that.

There is a small hinge piece attached to the roof to allow that angle. Looks like you put alot of work into the design, now just build it cause thats the fun part.

Me too. You'd be amazed at the pieces you'll see today. I am 27 now, and I saw what my little cousins have (they have A LOT). There is a piece for everything you can possibly imagine.

I almost used parts which were available 10 years ago. this small prisms didn't exist and these round one I used for the fenders.

The pic below shows the stone I used for the A-pillar

Actually I am numbering how many stones of each kind I need, the software does not has an option for this

People have been doing this for a while. Some of these are stock sets.


ANNNNNND i grew up playing with legos which explains why i dick around with cars, bikes or anything else that has moving or static parts i can combine to make something cool.
