| Thanks for pointing these out, Bruce. Cool theme. I especially like the ring of fire. Cute lion in that one too (to add to your animal database). -Brendan (19 years ago, 3-Mar-06, to lugnet.build.vignette, FTX)

| Hey, that is very cool. Makes a great puzzle, but I'm also immediately intrigued by the patterns it could provide for minifig floors or walls. Neato. -Brendan (19 years ago, 3-Mar-06, to lugnet.build, FTX)

|
| Hi all, This is not mine, but none of these guys post on Lugnet, and this is a cool new sub-theme. Starting with Sugegasa, several Japanese builders have created vignette pods, or v-pods. These are whole vignettes that pack away into an x-pod. (URL) (...) (19 years ago, 3-Mar-06, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.build.vignette, FTX) !!

| (...) I was aware of that while writing but figured it would just confuse the issue more. Let's face it, if we cared that much about scale (some excepted) we wouldn't be building with Lego, we'd choose some other medium. Tim (19 years ago, 3-Mar-06, to lugnet.build, FTX)

| Hi Welshie, (...) On the contrary, your question is the crux of the issue, that being scale in the LEGO Minifig world. I am going to base my answer on a few assumptions, so please forgive me if pass along some data which you already know. "Studs" (...) (19 years ago, 3-Mar-06, to lugnet.build, FTX)

I know I know that sounds stupid, but I am currently not at home and thus do not have my Lego pieces in front of me, so I (...) (19 years ago, 3-Mar-06, to lugnet.build, FTX)

| (...) In terms of numbers, somewhere around 1:38 to 1:44, depending on your preference. Most people seem to use one of: 1 stud (8mm) = 1 minifig foot 3 studs (24mm) = 1 minifig meter 1 minifg (42mm) = 6 feet tall But then again, many models are (...) (19 years ago, 2-Mar-06, to lugnet.build)
