Product Information

Akiyuki. The complexities of his Great Ball Contraptions and the mechanisms he comes up with are amazing! I like the piano and the way it was designed and built. With regards to overlooked product Ideas, I think that LEGO Ideas overlook technic-built and motorised product ideas. I am very happy with how the head tilt and turn mechanism worked out. It was the most challenging part of the build.

I like Technic builds. I’ve always been fascinated with making remote-controlled toys and LEGO Technic is perfect for this. The mechanisms, use of motors and building styles that that are structurally stable inspired my building style.It’s hard to say now that I have made several versions of Johnny 5. I initially made a version that’s made out of solely the parts from the Lego Set 42100, Liebherr R 9800 Excavator. It was an idea I had when I bought the set which I put on hold until I can figure out how to customise the controls. When the Powered Up App came out, I made the Johnny alternate build of the 42100 set. The research I made was just internet searches of Johnny 5 images and videos on his movements and design details. It took me about 2 weeks to get the initial design done. What special challenges did you face creating the model? What was the most difficult part to recreate? Arms can be raised and lowered individually using the Powered Up App. The fingers can be adjusted manually as well as the elbows.

What is yourfavouriteLEGO theme (current or past)? Why? And has any theme inspired your building style or preference in anyparticular way? Most importantly though, it has to be worth your effort - you have to have fun while creating and promoting it since that’s the point of this hobby. Jason Alleman. I like how he makes MOCs that are both aesthetically pleasing as well as mechanically sound.

The design is clever and interesting for the most part, though not quite up to Lego's standards. Some larger parts are held on by one stud, and there are several instances where Lego would have found a better/more secure way to accomplish the task where this model goes with "good enough." There are a few "illegal building techniques", too--several instances of studs mounted in technic holes. The Liebherr 9800 Set 42100 is currently my favourite set both because of its mechanical complexity as well as the versatility of the set for making MOCs. I’ve made several alternative MOCs of this set which included a version of Johnny 5. I still have alternative MOC ideas for this set which I’m planning to build one of these days. It was probably the torso section of the build. This section holds the mechanism for both tilting and turning the head. The combination of these two movements made it challenging. I had to work with the motor at an angle while the head is vertical.
