Check out this video of our fan Eric Raijmakers from the Netherlands! When chosing which Lego Set to buy, he noted that there were alternate instructions available for this set (42082). Now, one year later, he made our GBC 30 Fun Park with great enthousiasm: “Boy does it look satisfying!” “All in all, this adds quite some ‘replay value’ to an already existing nice Lego model!”
We want to thank Eric for his video and enthousiasm! Hopefully we will see more of your creations in the future!
Have you built one of our GBCs and would you like to share a footage with us? Please feel free to contact us!
“Just look about You owe it to yourself to check it out Can’t you feel a brand new day?” Can’t you feel a brand new GBC? ~Diana Ross, a brand new Day We’re very excited to finally be able to share our latest GBC with you! Meet the GBC 44 Scoop Loupe! The GBC 44 Scoop Loupe comes with a perfectly timed Scoop Motion, and …. The left-sided GBC Funnel Turbo Spin! every detail of the new GBC 44 Scoop Loupe! To double the fun, we have combined the building instructions…
“We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we’re curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.” – Walt Disney
Walt Disney is many things, one of which is: right! In creating the newest GBC (new sneak peak in the picture below!), our right sided turbo spin funnel could not fullfill it’s purpose anymore: it dropped the GBC balls at the wrong side and the GBC balls fell into the void….. Therefore we got curious for a solution, which lead us down to our new path: the left sided turbo spin funnel! With this funnel, we double the joy: no more limitations in building, making (almost) everything possible! First up: GBC 44!
Get your (left and/or right sided) turbo spin funnel

But who said, you can’t do both at the same time? Time for a Throwback Thursday!
Going through our archives, I found this gem: the GBC 18 Port Factory. As you can see in the video below, this GBC has a great collection of modules, which got me very excited! Thanks to the quite specific parts of the original LEGO Set, unique modules could be implemented into this GBC.
For starters there is the Seesaw Module, where different directions in the Seesaw are used to use Gravity to lead the GBC balls in the right direction only to release them when the rope linked to the end of the seesaw is pulled tight. Next up: the Wing Push Module, which is used to push the GBC balls uphill. Then there is the Tilting Bucket Module, where the balls take place in the transparent bucket transporting them vertically with an ingenious mechanism. Last up is my personal favorite module: the Tilting Bucket Module! Within this module, the nose of the original boat is transformed into a bucket, which tilts after being filled with 3-4 balls, dropping the balls onto the platform to start all over again!
In today’s Mechanical Monday, we will be discussing the Direction Switch Mechanism. As not everyone may be familiar with the use of the Direction Switch Mechanism, I would like to start with a (brief) introduction before going into depth on the working mechanism. However, feel free to skip the introduction, if you feel familiar with the topic! Recently we launched our GBC 42 Linear Loco Lifters. Within this GBC, two arms are used for lifting the GBC balls up into the air, enabling them to gather speed going downhill before entering the Turbo Spin Funnel. See the GBC in…
We are excited to announce our partnership with the well beloved SBrick company and LEGO enthousiast. You may know them from their powerful remote control, fully customizable, LEGO compatible hubs. Recently they launched their new SBrick Light kits which bring your LEGO models to the next level. Light up your LEGO creations as never before with smart logic and more!
To make the SBrick Light portable in your creations we have developed 3 power cables which extend the possibilities endlessly.
