I made my Avenger's Tower MOC seven years ago this month. It has been a great building to see in my city ever since. Now that LEGO has produced a large LEGO set of the Avenger's Tower, I must now decide what to do with my MOC. Any ideas? Let me know what you think.

I'm sorry it's been seven years since you built the Avengers MOC?! Oh how time flies. Been watching since the train shed through the hole in the wall days, I can't believe how long it's been.

Farewell MOCavengers Tower. Maybe a Hydra or Shield building if you want to keep it in the Marvel theme… or an Embassy/consulate… and you can put offices and representatives from different YT channels or lego cities arohnd the world. I’m planning to do something similar but not with a grey building 😊

@TheOtherGuys2

Always sad to see a favourite moc meet the end of its days, but I definitely think it'd be really cool to add a custom base to the new one. In the movies, the Avengers Tower is set directly behind Grand Central Station, so I'd say the idea of a train station on the ground level is a great idea, especially if you make the base level extend back over the train tracks behind the building. You'd have room for the train station in front if you offset the tower itself back so it's over the tracks, if that makes sense. As for the new building from the moc's pieces, I still like the idea of a cool two-tower resort hotel, maybe overlooking the beach area, with a skybridge connecting them. Kind of like the "Concord CityPlace" in Toronto. You could definitely make one or both of the buildings have that rounded corner shape using the parts from the moc. Admittedly, making two buildings might be a bit much, but one would also be cool!
@braverzero3709
@braverzero3709 9 месяцев назад
Your tower looks fantastic, crazy to think you build it 7 years ago. Admittedly there's a lot about yours I prefer including some of the angles. I'd love to see a combination of certain elements of the 2! For example, I like the curve of your window more than theirs to be honest. Theirs definitely needs a wider base which yours has. Also as simple as it is, the palm tree in front makes a world of difference. Great stuff. Hopefully you come up with something great to do with the pieces!

Hey Alex! Awesome idea to build a base for the new avengers tower. As I have said before, that is exactly what this building needs. Also, I am very happy to see that someone is making a base for this in Rebrickable. I am all over this now! As for another building idea, how about Wayne tower from Batman? I have never seen that before, you could be the first one.

Funny thing is I was thinking before you even mentioned it that you should do a building with all four corners using the curve pieces. Or maybe you could build it like a plus sign looking down on it from the top with curved corners, but for that you would need twice as many curves as doing a more traditional square building with curved corners.

@alessdimensions8821

I remember when you first build it, when it felt the newest edition to your city, this video kinda fills sentimental. Looking at the future I like the idea of building your own base, it's gonna be cool, I also love that you are going tu build another tower for your city, but I'm not thrilled that it is going to be build with the left overs, you see, I think that having the shmew tower and new avengers tower with the blue gray color scheme, having another gray blue building could be repetitive, that is a lot of blue glass and leaving it on used doesn't seem right so swapping the gray with another color is the way. ¿Octan building returning? Yes! Yes please! I like the idea of saying goodbye to a classic and the return to another one. Of course this are only my thoughts.

Just so you know Alex, In the movies Stark tower aka Avengers tower sits on top of a real life building (the Metlife building) and that is attatched Grand Central Station which, fun fact is the biggest train station in New York and the world. So having the monorail go through it is a great idea.

Get a second tower, double it up, since it needs more wide, that would allow a bigger landing platform and thus allow you to increase the height of that landings platform, so a more properly sized chopper or quinjet, could land. That's a must, right? As for stations, Wayne Terminal? That should balance the tower height & wide, out again. Only problem is that she would then eat two baseplates. Look up this youtube clip by "Structures Explained": Can Avengers Tower be Built in Real World? It shows the Penthouse is missing, for one. The Party Deck needing to be twice as high and other things. And if you want to have fun, create the Stark Tower from the Avenger Movie, that way you would have two very similar buildings, that you could then place as your own Twin Tower setup, above a train station. They have very similar designs, so you could have some fun, there, while creating a four baseplates or longer, train station. Anyway, have fun.
