From left to right: Cobi (yes, that's a Ford GP), Bluebrixx and my own (the first variant w/o swing axle). Although the MOC has some flaws, I still like it better than the others.

"Obis Cobis is bald from a sewer accident. Obis job is to slide around sewer pipes and retrieves lost items. On one faithful day, he slithered past some land gnomes who cast a spell on him..POW! all of his fluff, gone! He moved to a warm island where he can wear bikinis all year long, doesn't need fur and swims the days away!"

A typical north-german summer with lots of short showers. You really need to drop everything, grab your stuff, run downstairs to the backyard, place your bets... pardon, your Lego car, and hope that you've been fast enough to catch some falling drops.
Of course it's a different game when you're outdoors, but even in the case you need bad luck to get really wet.
The car is the Ford GP Jeep from Cobi, which in reality didn't get painted pink - fooled ya :o)

Been SUPER busy so far this year. Have still been building now and again, just not able to shoot pics and post.
Another quick pic. Picked a prize I won, from contest last year, while we were in Texas last month. Third COBI plane I have won. Gotta admit they are nicely shaped. Love the brushed aluminum look of the P38. Also have won the Corsair and Zero.
DEU: Ich dachte, detailierter und schöner als die BR 89 von Bluebrixx geht nicht. Als Cobi aber im Frühjahr ausgerechnet meine Lieblingslok von Kindheit an als Modell ankündigte, war kein Halten mehr - die musste ich haben!
Heute fertiggestellt, fix ein Foto aufm Balkon gemacht.
ca. 67 cm LüP
2505 Teile
1680 g
(Ich gönnte mir) 16 h Bauzeit
Vollkommen entspanntes Bauen. Keine Fehlteile, kein Fehler in der Anleitung, gute Steinequalität.
Bei den Kuppelstangen brauchte es etwas Geduld und Feinjustierung, damit die Lok ruckfrei geschoben werden kann - ansonsten: easy...
ENG: I thought it couldn't be more detailed and beautiful than the BR 89 from Bluebrixx. But when Cobi announced my favourite locomotive from childhood as a model in spring, there was no stopping me - I had to have it!
Finished today, quickly took a photo on the balcony.
ca. 67 cm lenght o/a
2505 parts
1680 g
(I allowed myself) 16 h building time
Completely relaxed building. No missing parts, no mistakes in the instructions, good quality bricks.

Uhmm, but we still have no idea where we are or where we're going.
Yeah, but who's gonna stop us now?
Rivers, ravines, dog walkers...
Dog walkers?
Yup. Stupid bunch who consider everything as a potential threat for their nice little doggo. 'But he just wants to play!' - and eat plasic toys. I hate dogwalkers!
And dogs!
And cats. And kids. And people.
Especially people. Good thing we have a tank.
So where are we going?
Dunno. Maybe we should ask somebody.
One of those we hate?
Damn.

This is something I've bever expected to see on my stream. When I made that Lindybeige at Bovington picture I wrote that it would be my first and last tank I'd ever build. I was wrong. Watching the Tank Museums Youtube Channel for years still makes me a pacifist, but sometimes even a pacifist needs to have the bigger gun so that some stupid looney doesn't invade your country.
Toy Project Day 2431
Brand new from the Cobi Small Army range.
I've realised that Cobi print off the stickers to the same template, thereby you receive blanks where on other sets in the range one may have differing stickers.
The figures in the aircraft range are phenomenally detailed. The pilot even has correct Japanese ethnocentric features!
I am hoping Cobi start a range of Southern Pacific Theatre sets; more Japanese ground forces and even Australian soldiers in Bush Slouch Hats....I actually like the angular, brick plate fuel tank on the undercarriage....
Lego meets Cobi
Den Mickymauskopf auf dem Cobi-Körper finde ich ganz witzig, umgedreht siehts dafür um so dämlicher aus :-))

COBI set no. 2477 - legendary Tiger no. 131 captured by Allies during WW2. Now restored and running exhibit in The Tank Museum in UK (and nice COBI set BTW). My time-lapse build and review video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=MVsXXEE3nlQ
Hey guys, I was finishing putting up all new loose COBI parts and I wanted to see what I could come up with quickly. I think he looks pretty good for just messing around. The M16 sets the piece as Vietnam pretty easily. I don't know much about COBI but I figure more customizing options are always nice. What do you all think of COBI? -JD
Hier ist der fertig gebaute Trabbi.
Wie schon gestern geschrieben, hat das mehr mit einem Revell-Bausatz als mit Lego zu tun.
The Trabant in all its glory. As I wrote yesterday, this is more like an Airfix kit than a Lego set.
Addition to Toy Project Day 2052
Location: Berlin (Germany), Pariser Platz.
Subject: The depicted contraption is a so-called Conference Bike (or CoBi for short), a 7-seat bicycle invented by the artist Eric Staller. It is a very common view in Berlin, where it is used for sightseeing tours and/or as a bike taxi, yet the producer commercializes it in other countries, too. In the German capital there are other similar means of transports, as those working as multi-bike beer bar (i.e., on which you may drink beer while you ride, or vice versa).

I had a bit of fun today creating my first ever stop motion. I have a few things to improve for next time, but it was fun to muck around with :)
Here's my shot at a Churchill Mk.I
This build is inspired by incalcatore's Churchill MOC and how he did mount the idler wheel at the front.
It had to be a Mark I for several reasons:
I liked the second gun in the front hull, so that had to be a "must have" feature
The Mark I did not have it's tracks covered, which made it:
A: easier to build
B: look cooler and more like a WWI tank
I would have prefered to build a later production turret, but in order to coincide with the rest of the vehicle, I had to build a Mark I turret.
Some remarks:
The tracks run smoothly and freely around the tank.
The machine gun in the turret is a pickaxe.
The hull gun is able to move up/down and left/right.
The turret is able to fully rotate exactly above the 2 hatches in the front.
I know that on the real tank the hatch to the right of the front hull gun is attached at the side and not at the top, but using the little 1x2 hinge tile as a hatch looked too cool not to build it like this :-)
Here is one of the brand new aircraft from COBI as part of their Small Army WWII range. This is set 5515.
Thanks for looking.
Mehr als 50% der Bauschritte aus dem Original Cobi-Modell wurden verändert und mit Lego-Teilen gebaut.
Fahrwerk komplett neu aufgebaut, damit die Lokomotive R 148 Radien befahren kann.
Tender Komplettumbau, motorisiert mit 2 Zugmotoren.
Mehr Details am Modell sowie Spitzensignal und Triebwerksbeleuchtung.
Korrekte Loknummern müssen noch geändert werden.
More than 50% of the construction steps from the original Cobi-model were modified and built by using Lego parts.
The chassis was completely rebuilt so the locomotive can travel on R 148 curved Tracks.
The tender was completely rebuilt and powered by two train motors.
More details on the model, including lighting.
The locomotive number still needs to be added.
Something new today - I'm learning about a heap of new techniques in photoshop. This photo could be overkill (I kind of ignored the 'less is more' rule). It's still fun to try new things and get different results.
Thanks for looking.
Here is my collection of COBI Small Army WWII Tanks, Armoured Fighting Vehicles and Support Vehicles for August 2015. My collection includes predominately German and Soviet armour, but also some British and American vehicles. I highly recommend these brick sets to anyone interested. They are very good quality, and I think the designs are getting better with each new release. If you have any questions please ask!
"Morning Raid"
I recently finished building the B-25 Mitchell from the WWII Aircraft magazine series, and I am very impressed. The aircraft is much larger than I was expecting, and it looks very impressive. I really love the transparent cockpit pieces, and the overall shape looks perfect. My one complaint is that there is probably too much weight on the wheels, and I think the wheel axles will bend or break over time. Overall though, I'm very impressed. Bring on the He-111!
PS. The bombers are much harder to photograph because of their size/weight:)
