  • @GarryDumblowski
    @GarryDumblowski 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    So, this is... sort of on topic, I guess?
    In the Lego NES set, the way the set makes the "animation" on the TV screen work is by using a ginormous tread construction which turns when you roll the crank on the side. The build for this tread is extremely long; it will probably make up a good 2-3 hours of the building process, and requires probably at least a thousand pieces.
    The instructions imply you can build the entire tread construction using only the contents of bag 13. You, uh, can't do this.
