This is amaxing, congratulations on this achievement. I was one of the people who voted for it to become a LEGO set. I am revisiting this video to show my son who still builds LEGO. I bought a Moomin advent calendar so now have a set of figures that need to be housed and i remembered this project. I am unsure right now how we'd get the bricks we need. If anyone reading this has any advice, i'd gratefully accept it.
Made a LEGO Ideas account just to support this. You did an amazing job, despite all the limitations. It looks like an official Lego set! All it needs is some official Moomin Lego Minifigures :D Perhaps we'll get to see some of those if this becomes a reality. There is potential for so many more sets too, like a small Snufkin's tent set, the Witch's hut, Snork & Snorkmaiden's home, the floating theatre, Snork's flying ship... I would buy them all honestly lol
Thank you so much for doing that! Additional sets would be amazing, but I think those would be a bit too niche to get 10 000 supporters on LEGO Ideas, so it would probably have to be a direct collaboration deal between Moomin and LEGO if it were to ever happen. However, I'm personally considering building more Moomin related things just for myself, for fun. ^^
Yeah, that's what I was thinking. If this does get the attention of Moomin Characters and they start working on an actual series of Moomin Lego sets :D but just the Moominhouse would be honestly amazing.
dude i was checking that project every couple of weeks hoping lego will decide to do this one. What a pity I would buy it in a split of a second. Thanks for sharing plans!
@@Bonefoot i am downloading file and i want to build it myself :) i have no clue how to get specific legos for it but i am determined since lego doesn't want to release this awesome project!
@@TheLukaszencja It'll cost you a fortune to get all the parts, but the way you do it is you make an account on bricklink.com, then open my Moominhouse file with Studio 2.0 and login to your bricklink account on that software, then you can import the digital design into a bricklink wishlist, and with that wishlist, you can go and start buying the parts you need on the bricklink website. Sounds complicated, but it's quite simple. The hardest part is finding sellers who have the most amount of parts you need for the least amount of money. A single seller isn't going to have all 2999 parts, so you need to buy from multiple sellers, so you have to do a lot of comparing to make sure you're getting the best prices for each different kind of part.
This is amazing! So much detail, despite the smaller dimensions. Excellent work! Have you got a video showing the larger version? How many pieces was it originally? I found you via reddit bc I was searching for moomin stuff after being nearly a year into my de agostini subscription to build the moominhouse. Very excited for that, but it's a loooong subscription, just over 2 years! At @ £1200 😳 I wonder how much lego would have charged for yours? 🤔 I'm honestly pretty shocked that lego didn't pick up your idea...I would have thought that a collab between them and moomin would be very profitable for both sides, especially if they made smaller kits for the other residences/characters etc. Keep your eyes open for them stealing your idea! Read the small print on your submission...AFAIK, after so long, ideas submitted to a company becomes their property, and they can release it without cutting the originator in. I would have bought it if they had approved your submission, I'll boycott it if they steal it tho! I think you'd have a LOT of support if that was to happen as well. Hopefully it won't! Great to see your build in detail, thanks for sharing it 😊
Thank you! I haven't done a full-on video about the larger Moominhouse, but I did show it off a little bit in this livestream, 1 hour into it: th-cam.com/video/P_ZNQKY_sFk/w-d-xo.html. That prototype version is around 5500 pieces. Since my Moominhouse submission has ~3000 pieces, the final version would've probably cost anywhere between 250 and 350 euros in stores. I think LEGO and Moomin fit together perfectly too! I think the biggest reasons for them not approving the idea was the big size of it, and also the fact that Moomins are virtually unknown in North America, which is a big market for LEGO. I would love if LEGO did decide to make Moomin sets later on! I don't mind even if they would take some ideas from my set. I just want LEGO Moomin sets! Thanks for the comment! ^^
Small world! ^^ Thank you very much. The prospects of reaching 10 000 are definitely better now that the official Moomin social media channels posted about it. Still a long way to go, though.
Great set. If this set comes, i buy it, add a little easter egg in the basement (Moominpapa's musket) and make some lego moomin mocs myself, maybe Snorks flying ship or Hemulen's home.
Thank you! That's a good idea! You should make Moomin mocs regardless - It's a lot of fun! I'm considering making some more, as well. Hemulen's house is probably the one I'd like to do next.
🤗 how cute . I remember when i was little i watched a lot of moomin, one time when i was at a cinema there was a guy and i could talk to him and i talked to him and i got a moomin lolly for me and my sister and brother. 😊
Thank you, Floyd! ^^ The icon is a part of the banner my friend mellisbaker made for my channel some time ago. Thought it would be appropriate to have it as my avatar for now.
That's so cool! I was looking for a video like that for a long time! (I needed the house plan bc i want to build it in minecraft). Thank you for making this video! Much love from Estonia 😊
Thank you! I'm glad it was of help to you. Funnily enough, I first created a Moominhouse based on the cartoon screenshots in Minecraft about ten years ago. Doing that made it so much easier to then design it out of LEGO all these years later. ^^
Welcome back to TH-cam Bonefoot. I see you picked up a new hobby. Man I used to love me some LEGOs as a kid. Nice, looking forward to seeing more of you new content. Cheers! 😎
Thanks! ^^ Yeah, I decided to buy a LEGO set for myself last Christmas for the first time since I was a kid, and then I stumbled upon people making all kinds of cool custom stuff and got inspired to try it myself. So, that's where all my creative time has gone this year, LEGO instead of videos. But oh well, I've taken so many "breaks" by this point that it's a norm for my channel.
Thank you, Mike! ^^ It was a long and slow process making it, since it was only my second ever custom LEGO build and the first that I had actually digitally designed before building it.
This is very great build, but if you don't know yet, the room next to Moominpappa's office was shown in episode 65 "The Fancy-Dress Ball" when Snorkmaiden and little My went there searching for wigs.
Thank you. Good spotting! I think I missed that when I was designing the build, but I do remember it now. Fortunately, there wouldn't have been any space to recreate that room anyways, so I don't think my design would have changed, since I would have still wanted to prioritize making Moominpappa's office as accurate as I could.
I'm happy my video made you want to build Moomin stuff! ^^ Sniff's house is a great place to start! Although, it's inside the ground, which might be a bit tough to replicate. Some other good starter ones might be the swimming hut or the bridge and Snufkin's tent! Lots of options!
Congratulations for your great work, and thanks for sharing the digital plan. Where did you get all the Lego peices from? Did you find it from your old Lego toys? Or we can buy the peices you want? Where can we buy the Lego peices from
Thank you! BrickLink is the main website people use to buy and sell LEGO bricks! That's where I got mine. You can go to my Moominhouse link and then press the "Inventory" tab and "Add Parts to BrickLink Wanted List" and start buying the parts you need that way.
Hi, have you released the instructions for this anywhere? I was wanting to build this and was sad that it was rejected on lego ideas. I also messaged you on reddit but I wasn't sure if you were still active there. I understand if you don't want to release them, but thought it would be worth asking.
Hello! I have not released the digital model file yet, but I do plan on doing that now that it was rejected, so people have a chance to build it themselves. I haven't had the time to look into how or where to release it yet, so it might take a little while still before I get around to it.
Hello, I bought all the bricks, downloaded the manual and Studio 2.0 but I don't know how to start building with it. Can you tell me how to build step by step? Thank you very much in advance for your help. Regards
Oooh, exciting! I would love to see pictures of your Moominhouse when it's done! There is supposed to be a way to get Studio 2.0 to automatically generate building instructions, but I could personally never get it to work, so I unfortunately can't help with that. The way I built it using Studio 2.0 is extremely cumbersome, but basically I just kept using the feature that makes the bricks you select invisible. I would start with the ground floor section at the very bottom of the build, take a look at the entire floor directly from the side, use my mouse to select everything except the very bottom row of bricks and make them invisible. I would then build the very bottom of the house and after that, I would reset the invisible bricks and this time make everything invisible except the two most bottom rows of bricks. And slowly build the entire house like this, going one layer of bricks at a time. It is quite annoying, but it worked. You can see me doing it this way in this timelapse video: twitter.com/Bonefoot/status/1323903370776764416
LEGO decided to not make my Moominhouse into an official set, so I've decided to share my digital plan for it for free on Rebrickable, in case any Moomin fan wants to build it! rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-117520 If you build it, I would love to see pictures! 🙏 Thank you for this incredible journey! ❤
@@Bonefoot haha bonefoot very funny LOL however that was freaking awesome I was like finally a person on TH-cam that actually gets crazy with those Western games, like I've been playing like ... Red Dead Revolver ....Red Dead Redemption and I'm looking forward to getting Redemption 2 I I've been playing Red Dead Revolver and Red Dead Redemption on my backwards compatible PlayStation 3 system but I've been really wanting to get a PS4 simply to be able to play Dead Redemption 2 cuz it looks awesome but I'm waiting for the PS4 to get ultra-cheap which it's starting to anyways I loved your western games idea and also I think you're a cool person and I loved that video about Red Dead Revolver it was too cool and I did continue to watch on with the NES game also I enjoyed the Wii Western game as I never knew there was a game that had a gun and all that with it but I seriously wanted to see what position that you put the game (Gun) on the list!?
I'm happy you liked those videos! I actually just played Gun a few months back and I loved it. I think I would have put it right between Red Dead Redemption and Red Dead Revolver on my top list!
@@Bonefoot *Ok cool man thanks from ...(Me) Paul in Seattle Washington U.S.A.! Loved the western series ...YOU really played the Cowboy image well and looked awesome with that Black Cowboy Hat And I use to have Gun for the Ps3 yet I never finished it yet !..So now I will grab a copy off of E Bay and play it some more...Ps ...That Level in Revolver with them dudes in the bar beating up the prostitutes .... is so damn hard I cannot seem to save the chicks and get past it, Because Them mo fo`s keep throwing me around the bar, Did you past that part ??? !*

Yes, Moomin!! I would love to see this as an actual set! 😁
Thanks! I would love that too! ^^
Dang, I am now glad I supported. I live how you did the Lego Moominhouse and all the little references you added!
Thank you so much! I tried to add as many little references as I could wherever they felt natural!
