Okay, so the other day I was packing up
a few projects including my recent dragon
for safekeeping, when suddenly a thought
crossed my mind. (maybe I should just tear
this thing apart for the pieces.) Of course,
I shrugged off the thoguht and decided to
write this simple poll instead.

Anyway, here's the simple question. Do
you keep your MOCs together after posting
them, or do you scrap them for parts and
build something else?

I'd like to hear your comments.

The survey is worded: "do you keep it together, or scrap it for pieces?" The possible answers are Yes and No. I'm not really sure how we're supposed to answer. Someone could answer for either the keep-it-together half of the question or the (...) (22 years ago, 25-Feb-03, to lugnet.general)

(...) Ignoring the flawed poll question, and jumping straight to the comments... I do always scrap my MOCS for pieces, although it often takes a while. I think that's one of the major beauties of building with LEGO rather than other media... you can (...) (22 years ago, 25-Feb-03, to lugnet.general)

(...) I'm with David. I don't know what "yes" means. The better answers might have been - I never build MOCS so the poll doesn't apply to me - Keep them together - scrap them for parts - Keep them together for some significant period then scrap them (...)

Well! I see that the meticulousness of this hobby often transfers into other areas. While I agree that the question cannot be answered with a simple yes or no, I understand it and would like to offer my comments. I've had three medium-size MOC's (...) (22 years ago, 25-Feb-03, to lugnet.general)

Some I keep, but mosty the survive only for a while bacause 1) I need the pieces for something else 2) would require roo much space (and money ref 1) 3) lego is for rebuilding :-) ) Only a very few models I have made do still exist. And they go (...) (22 years ago, 25-Feb-03, to lugnet.general)
  Re: New Poll, do you keep or scrap MOCs for parts?
 
(...) I didn't vote in your poll because of the aforementioned flaws (neither of those choices fits what I do). Depending on the size and complexity of the MOC, I may or may not take it apart. I have some, like Marvin the Martian, that I've had (...) (22 years ago, 25-Feb-03, to lugnet.general)
