mrfang2 Posted November 19, 2014 Posted November 19, 2014 okay, im taking on the project of building the full, movie size construction mech from the end of the lego movie, but have run into a big problem. theres a fairly complex looking technic build working as the midsection of the torso and the joint that supports the entire upper body, and i cant figure out how to build it. i dont have a great knowlage of technic, so i was wondering if i could get help from you guys here in the technic forum id'ing the parts and how they are used. im sorry, i know these arent the best shots of it, but this is about all i could find showing the darn thing.

RohanBeckett Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 There's quite a few things in the movie that aren't really to scale, with other parts, and I'm sure there's plenty of 'illegal' connections.. as well as many that would be very weak in real life - the things you can get away with, in a computer-generated movie! :) There biggest official turntables are Studless: http://rebrickable.com/parts/50163 and Previous version in Studded: http://rebrickable.com/parts/2855 (note this is just the top piece) RB Quote
Tommy Styrvoky Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 It appears to be made up of recognizable parts, but I can't tell where one part starts and another ends. There were some parts in the movie that weren't actual lego parts (56z gear on wildstyle's bike.) Quote
efferman Posted November 20, 2014 Posted November 20, 2014 (edited) tommy, it is a 60 tooth gear. this is what i think to see, but to hold the torso upright on display i suggest some changes. lxf edit: stabilized version lxf Edited November 20, 2014 by efferman Quote
