    i ran into the same issue with not having the right colors but i had the right pieces so i tried for the fun of it spray painting with the tamyia paint as well. it looked like i bought it in that color. I was looking to see if you know the name of the color of the classic space/castle (1980s) gray.

    • @marlinthemiata

    Really enjoyed this video! I'm also a fan of the retro lego. Totally agree that 1990 to 1996 was peak city.As a child, I looked at the sets in the catalog so often, but I only had a few of them myself. So that's why I recently bought some city octane sets from that era and had a blast.

    I have a question. So I'm working on a lego project. And just like your video I want to paint my pieces. It's a light tan and I need it to be a dark brown but the rest of the pieces I'm buying are white. So if im trying to get a uniform look do I paint the tan pieces white then color all together or do you think it would be ok to just do dark brown all across? Also love the video!!

    • @marlinthemiata
      @marlinthemiata 2 месяца назад

      Painting a dark color, you should be fine. If it was a light color you were spraying, I'd recommend all white bricks.

    The Jungle Explorer ATV isn’t really an Adventurers set, though. When I first heard Johnny Thunder was returning, I assumed there’d be a new Adventurers theme, but it’s as though the character fell through a time portal into the modern day.

    • @marlinthemiata

      Yes I know just adding the Johnny character to this city line was just a nod from Lego, I was just hopeful to see the actual Adventurers line return. Still hopeful to see an adult collectors version at some point.

    • @marlinthemiata
      @marlinthemiata 4 месяца назад

      There probably isn't enough material to make a full video on, but what I did to make that model was the following: I modified the 86 instructions from @legomadspacer on rebrickable.com to better fit the front end shape of the Levin. Then, I created custom stickers for the Levin front end and Akina SpeedStars graphics. The wheels were 3D printed hubcaps I picked up from another MOC maker that unfortunately no longer offers them. I have a few closer up short videos that show the Levin details a bit better on my TikTok for visual references. Hopefully this helps some!

    I agree that these are great value for money. Recently I built my first brick construction set for about 50 years, the CaDA London Underground Station. A good set as a re-introduction to bricks, with some interesting moving features. The drawback is there are few of these sets that will blend in to create a coherent British street scene. My next will probably be the coffee shop, but not sure what else. Any suggestions?

    As nice as the Sauber F1 kit has been compared to Lego F1, it is arguably only CaDA's third best officially licensed car kit. The cheaper CaDA Ruf Yellowbird at $100 USD looks to be FAR FAR superior to the equivalent Lego model, the Creator Expert Porsche 911. Maybe part of that is it is cheaper to buy the Ruf license than the Porsche license, but in any case the CaDA Ruf has almost full technics innards with suspension, moving engine parts, etc, paired with really nice system bricks outer shell, in a package that is almost half the price of the Lego 911. And then there is the massive CaDA AMG ONE 1:8 supercar, which isn't cheap at $300, but compared to the Lego 1:8 supercars it is just so much better value. It is a full $150 cheaper than the Lego Supercars, looks just as good, but on top of that, the CaDA AMG ONE is also a fully motorized AWD RC car, and also has LED headlights. Arguably the best technic style car model on the market today.
