I do not know why this channel is so small. This guy has editing skills way better then just sub par! He has crisp transitions, and HD footage that is spot on. 26K is still small for other retro channels. I have faith in your channel. But I have noticed so many you tubers are going from daily to weekly videos but patients is quality!
This man is like the Bob Ross of Lego, creates cool lego, Ross made Cool paintings, both have a calm voice, and good sense of humor during their episodes.
Christian I am blown away mate. After bricklink building 90% of the original UCS Falcon I know how challenging that can be, but, to build it as well ; thats just awesome. Awesome work.
PeriFractic hard name to say/remember, but your work is certainly memorable... THANK YOU, I was once President of the Okinawa Japan PC User's Group (O-PUG) and the Albany GA Librarian for the Commodore User's group there... What you have done here is wonderful, amazing... and just in time for Christmas and my birthday... Looks like a great 2me4me. /grin
This is soooo AMAZING!!! I'm just stunned because of the result! I love it how you thought about mods and the option to put a Lego motherboard and/or keyboard in, or an actual C64 motherboard and keyboard. A dream come true! Thanks so much for this series! :D
Ahaha, I recognize my favourite local store Timby 's packaging, packing and labeling right there... Isn't it lovely to receive such a long string of nicely sorted Lego parts :-) Awesome project! Retro computing and Lego is the ideal mix.
Welcome to Perifractics Retro Recipies, the show where one calm guy talks about making computers cool again, please enjoy. Love the vid man, keep it up, I admire your creativity and thoughtfulness that you put into these type of projects, as always, have some fun.
Blimey, I was always aware of Danelectro (hey, I’m an American classic rock musician and came close on two occasions to getting a Longhorn electric bass), but this is the first I’m hearing or seeing that they made their own 9 V batteries. At 10:30 - Operation! When we had our C64 as children, almost all of our software was on floppy discs. We ended up only having to cartridges that fit in the back panel, “Up n Down” and “Jumpman Junior”. Love me some Twinmaster!
For the LED ya could use two LEGO cables, one goes from the mobo to a specified spot in the bottom plate, the other goes from the LED to the same spot but in the top-cover. That way ya could secure the LED a bit better and not have to push it upwards every time ya assemble the case. The two LEGO cables would match up when you join the case-halves and connect the LED.
What an absolutely awesome vid! and I can see the love, blood sweat and tears that have gone into this project, believe me I've stood barefoot on enough lego to know the pain involved :-) You my friend have won the internet yet again :-) I can only imagine the time behind the scenes here, thank you so much! can't wait to show the kids especially my eight year old son, this will really make his year!
I just checked the support page at Lego and we need another 400 supporters!!! Believe it or not this is starting to become a part of the Commodore 64 amazing history. So with that said help us make history and join the team!!!
Correct, we need 1000 total by the end of year one to gain another 6 months extension to reach 5,000 then another 6 months to reach 10,000. If we get 10k votes in 2 years it goes to the Lego review board for consideration as a real boxed set!
Next project: The Lego C65. Fitting an small C64 + 1581 board + drive into one case. To save space, the drive could be a modified PC slimline drive. Some models can be reworked for an Amiga, so it should work on a 1581. The additional keys: F9, F11, F13 are F1, F3, F7 + C=, F10, F12 and F14 are C= + Shift. Help is F7 + C=, Tab is F7 + C= + Shift Then there are Esc, Alt, Caps Lock and No Scroll. They may use Joystick Port 2, then TAB should be the fire button.
Hi everyone, thanks for the amazing comments so far. We need 10k votes at ideas.lego.com/projects/45489933-12a2-4de8-9d36-32916d7f697d for Lego to release this boxed set! If everyone who watched this video voted, you could see a Lego C64 on store shelves! #Vote! 👍🕹️
Living just 20 km. from Billund - the home city of Lego - I do feel I MUST build one of these. I do even have a C64 keyboard that would make a great match with an Ultimate64 in this case :o))) Though it won't be the cheapest "C64" around ;-)
Excelent!!! This lego case is perfect for building an emulatior of the C64 based on raspberry pi and the keyrah. This will allow me to also have a raspbian (linux based) OS in a portable computer where you can take it everywhere and connect it to any monitor or TV.
I'm always amazed at the beauty of the great white shark. Just think the perfect eating/swimming machine. I dont think the lego commodore case would stand up to a full frontal attack by a fully grown male great white.
I've just voted for this project on the LEGO website. I had to spend time to set an account there and all this nonsense just to vote so I hope it will count. :)
use the PI and mount it to the lego MOBO when i was much younger i built a working keyboard with lego using an electric lego kit was a long time ago now haha
This is just amazing! Outstanding work, and such dedication to making this idea become real. You are my idol right now....you have Commodores, Legos, and Puppies!
Brixty-Four YEEP Loving the design. I already entered, but yep, even if I did win it would just be a collector's item (I would want to keep it in pristine condition).
I envy people having actual access to a lego store. Alas we don't have a single one in the entire country, or any nearby countries. I think the nearest one may be in Japan or something? XD
Rules for having a Commodore 64 1. Use it 2. Cherish it 3. (Most important) look at it from behind All jokes aside; great Lego build P.S. Are you the president of Lego?
I love donation ware. I think it's how a lot of pirates treat software and shows/films. If the like the product enough, they'll pay for it. If not, they won't. I actually prefer this model, even if it is less profitable.
Lego lamp is not LED, but a traditional incandescent bulb. It is 9V bulb, so you can use 9VAC available in the C64 to power it up, as for a bulb it makes no difference if it is powered with AC or DC. You may use 5VDC, but have to remember it will put load to this line, especially during power-on.
You’re an absolute legend for spending all these hours creating this and then making it available for others! Absolutely love the results but I reckon the LEGO keyboard is going to be the absolute icing on the cake! Waiting with enthusiasm! Next up: LEGO Wavestation EX xD
16:21 if you stagger the "strengthening bar" so that it starts a stud into the first angle piece it should increase the strength further. because it's then across more, and different, pieces so any stress isn't across all the same parts. 19:05 isn't that a 9V LED? 22:44 Now, Lego keys on the real keyboard
It was frustrating, but I made a lego account just so I could help support this on the website. I really want one of these kits to restore my C64 . Also hope there can be a selection of colors to choose from.
Was not disappointed at all. What a great build! Win or not, I definitely want to order the pieces and build one of my own. I'd probably do the RPi solution, as I haven't owned a physical C64 since I was 9. Also, thanks for letting me know about BlenderGrid. I used to use a crowdsource render farm to do final renders of my Blender projects, but they've shut down. :( As always, can't wait for part 3!

as a bonus the bulb will last 4 times longer on 5 volts witch is why i use 5 volts vs using the 9 volt bat
Nice to see it come to life. Im actually currently making a sinclair zx81 lego case and a custom PCB made in Eagle CAD.
6:40 Yay! Thought bubbles matching up with the person/dog thinking!
Thats hilarious that you see the vw camper at the Lego store and said "you don't see those on the road anymore" then saw one 😂

I'd love to see a Commodore 64C case in Lego - that'd be really cool too
Now that is how you do LEGO! That is super cool, Stargractic! Sign me up, err, I mean I signed me up.

I totally remember the Jupiter Lander sounds/tunes. Haven't heard that in a long time... a long time.
Can't wait for the Amstrad out of Stickle Bricks

Which model: CPC 4-stickle-4?
that'd take a lot more bricks - but be a bit easier considering less rounded corners.

I never joke about Lego.

Wish you the best with getting this made to market!

I didn't know there were Lego stores with Lego drawers!
I was 17 when I found out there was a secret compartment in the pick a brick too. Not saying where though ;)
