It takes two (to make a thing go right)

Rob Base & DJ EZ Rock’s already said it in 1988. It takes two (or more) to make a thing go right. And we believe they originally wrote it for our Powered Up Splitter Cable ;)

With the new LEGO Powered Up system, builders are limited to only connect 1 motor/light to a single hub output. In many cases this results in running out of ports or just missing the power for your creation.
But fair no more. Our Powered Up Splitter Cable comes to the rescue. Connect for example 2 train motors to a single hub output and double the power of your locomotive! Or for GBCs use fewer hubs to power all your modules!

We have 2 versions available, both serving a different purpose. You can read all about them on the product page.

Mechanical Monday – Tilting Table Mechanism

Time for another Mechanical Monday! Today in the spotlight? The Tilting Table Mechanism!   The Tilting Table Mechanism is used in our GBC 21 Mine Factory and GBC 45 Stunt Circus. What is the use you ask? Not that hard: entertainment! As the table tilts and turns, gravity pulls the GBC balls into different directions creating a suspense before they finally make their way to the center of the Tilting Table. The table is unique in its working mechanism: where other tables may rotate or tilt, this table combines both actions. But that’s not all: the tilting of the table…
