Ed is the Man! Ed van Nunen (the Netherlands) is the first to build our GBC 56 Mine Quarry and share his fan build video of it. It always gives us so much joy to see our GBCs pop up everywhere. In which country/place will the next video take place? Your home? Or perhaps on an LEGO event?
Next to that, Ed also pointed out some improvements we could make which we have already implemented in the latest version of the building instructions.
Thanks Ed!
For quite some time now we have been working on something very cool and oh so handy.
It has to do with the LEGO parts below. Can you guess what?
With the release of our latest and greatest GBC 56 Mine Quarry we have also took the time to rework all our existing building instructions from the LEGO 42055 Bucket Wheel Excavator set. They are now all streamlined to our latest design style and we have improved some graphics along the way. Can you imagine buying building instructions 7 years ago and receiving a free update of it today? Next to that we have also reworked our GBC 42055 Pack – Mining Factories Combi Pack. You now are able to choose freely which building instructions you want to include combined with some accessories for extra discount.
NEW – The Building Instructions for the GBC 56 Mine Quarry are finally available! Created completely from the LEGO 42055 Bucket Wheel Excavator set.
This GBC is one of the most epic ones yet with a lot going on in every corner. GBC Balls can take multiple paths and you can control the direction however you like! Learn about clever mechanisms and experience how systems work together to get the GBC Balls go round and round.
Bricknerd (a LEGO news outlet) challenged us (together with Noad de Lange, Petter Breedveld and Ben Jonkman) to make a GBC from the small LEGO 42167 Mack LR Electric Garbage Truck set. Due to the very limited parts selection it was indeed a good challenge where everyone contributed ideas from their own expertise. We had a blast designing it together and in the end we accomplished the goal of making a nice functional GBC which is also very satisfying to look at.
We may now proudly reveal: GBC 58 Dump ‘n’ Drop – 42167 Alternate Build Building Instructions
Noah de Lange from Bricknerd wrote a really nice article about the design process of this GBC.
