An early Holiday Gift – Free Building Instructions


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.
