    The error from 7:37 is also found in the 10274 Ghostbusters Ecto-1. Every common printed console piece has had their design updated, but the instructions still showed the old designs.
    Edit: I noticed the product page on Lego's website has images that feature the old designs, but the copy that I own has the new designs, like the gauges in the City boat. If I look at the part list for this set on Bricklink it has the new designs in the "Alternate Items" section.

    I don't know if you've covered this, but the Infinity War 76104 Hulkbuster has you build the same arm twice. But they have you add the sticker on 2 slopes BEFORE you build 2, making it so that you have to swap some pieces. I didn't do a very good job explaining it, but you can go check it out.

    The slipping bricks errors are simply an attachment bug. The brick hasn't been locked with others and during posing all bricks move to their corresponding attachments, except the ones who fail to snap to the others. And because unrendered projects often use dull shadowless color, in a huge cluster is a challenge to notice these things.

    Lego doesn't seem to have realized that putting a plate between two studs stresses the pieces until fairly recently, as there were a lot of sets of around the same vintage as that police car that did that. I know I have a set from the Eighties that did that in one of the back-of-the-box alt builds.

    The colors and shape of the super robot make it look exceedingly similar, but not 100% identical, to GaoGaiGar. They probably used GaoGaiGar as the main inspiration for the design, but altered the colors in some places, and may have drawn inspiration from other robots as well.

      @themazeecho9336 7 місяців тому

      @@EchelonNine A tile has the exact same thickness as a plate. The illegal technique comes when you put the stud of the vertical plate aligned with the studs of the horizontal plate, because that causes the extra stress. If you interleave the vertical and horizontal studs, as on this police car, then no extra stress occurs as the vertical stud can fit in between the horizontal ones and the vertical plate touches the horizontal one.
