Questions
about our custom Lego sets
-
How often do you add
new custom Lego models?
Sometimes we add new Lego models every
week and at other times it can be a few
weeks depending on the size and type of
the Lego models. For example, small Lego
sets require a lot less pieces and time
than modular buildings so there is no
way of telling for sure when the next
custom set comes out. We are currently
adding about 3 to 4 custom models every
month.
-
How do I purchase the pieces I need to
built the Lego models?
All of our custom Lego sets are built
with pieces that were purchased directly
through the Lego website's Pick-a-Brick
and replacement department. This ensures
that all of the pieces were readily
available and you should not have any
problems purchasing them as well. The
rare pieces that are available through
the replacement department are listed in
our database, so all you need to do is
to look them up and enter the Lego ID #
for each piece. You can also find many
of the Lego pieces on eBay and other
websites if you prefer.
-
How to print out the custom stickers
you see in
our Lego models?
All of the stickers you see in our
custom Lego sets can be easily recreated
by yourself and you can also add your own
personal touches if you like.
All you need is a color printer, mailing
labels and any standard program that
allow you to insert images like Word,
PhotoShop, Paint, etc. When we built a custom model, we simply
do a Google search for the type of
business or brand and click on the image
results. Then we copy an image we
like and paste it in a program like
Word, PhotoShop, Publisher, etc. All
that is needed is to resize it, print it
out on shipping label paper, cut it out
and apply it on the Lego pieces.
HINT: To save money, always print
out on regular paper first and make sure
that the size is perfect. This way you
don't waste the expensive shipping label
paper. The shipping label paper can be
bought at most office supply stores and
we get ours from eBay where many sellers
offer it for a lot less. We use the
half-page ones so that there are two
labels per page. These are the same
labels that we use for FedEx and UPS
shipping and they are standard sizes.
