300D model built from Lego

I came across this when searching the web for scale models of 123 bodied 300Ds. By the way, if anyone knows where I can find such a thing send me a message...

1983 300D built out of Lego blocks

Thanks, I'm glad you like it. I just updated it a few days ago, will take pics and post them online.

Also crash-tested it, hopefully I can upload the video as well.

By the way here is the original gallery on Brickshelf. The MOCPages gallery is temporarily down.

Enjoy!

Part 2

I've downloaded Lego Digital Designer so I can create the digital version, upload it to Lego, and that will allow people to buy a copy of it directly from Lego. So far I'm trying to make the 300TE, and maybe the 300D when I get more time. I just completed this last night so there's quite a bit more to go and the resource list is completely lacking other very useful parts so that's a bummer...

Look here, they have nearly every MB you can imagine and some you can't. You have to be patient, though, I had to wait 6 weeks for my 1/43 scale W126.

Well they don't sell a 300D, only a 240D, but that wasn't available at the time...

Here comes the 300TDT w123 Lego version!

Tons of parts that are still missing, but it already has:

3rd row seat, functioning and hidden in floor
Folding 2/3 split rear seat, removable headrests
Opening tailgate
Identical to the 300D from the B pillar forward



Enjoy! More pics!
