So all in? ?

The most ridiculous marketing video Lego have ever produced.

I would like take a moment to complain about sellers that use buy it now 'or best offer', but then aren't willing to accept anything less than 98% of their original price. If they want the full price, just damn well leave it at that with no offer. Morons.

Not my listing, unfortunately. Time to polish my turds. https://ebay.us/INlsfL

Traction Engine - Brick Built Version Hi everyone. I've recently completed work on a brick built version of The Old Workhorse Traction Engine. I've had to swap some colours around to reflect Lego parts and colours that are currently in production. I've also made a few minor improvements to the design of the model which I will detail below. For now I've only built the Traction Engine portion of the set but I'm working on the wagon and other bits so I will post pictures of those too when they're complete.

I've redesigned this to have the appearance of a brass cap and a tapered shape towards the top which is more true to how a real traction engine funnel should look. I've also redesigned some of the details on top of the boiler, behind the funnel to appear more realistic and to give added stability. Brick Built Version of The Old Workhorse by Bricked1980, on Flickr For the brick built version I decided to use a 2 tone colour scheme for the main body. The lower half is in earth green and the upper section of the cab and boiler are dark green. Unfortunately the spoked wheels are not available in red so I used reddish brown instead. I'm pleased with how the new colour scheme has worked out, it has quite a rustic look. My preference would still be for the model to be produced in the livery used in the original rendered model though, if ever it was lucky enough to go all the way on LEGO Ideas. I do think the lighter shade contrasts nicely with the gold though. Let me know what you think.

Please feel free to let me know what you think. There are more pictures in my Flickr album including a short video clip of the model. If you like the model I'd also be really grateful if you could please give it your support over on LEGO Ideas if you've not done already. Thanks very much. LEGO IDEAS - Old Workhorse Traction Engine
