Honestly, I kinda like it, because it's weird. 😄 Random eyebrows, haha. Imagine being used to only the standard faces, and then coming across this one, and being like "what the...??" 😄 So, it's a thumbs up from me.
Yes. It's nice that they try out different prints. But this one isn't that different from the iconic smiley with regular eyes and that's why I have a weird feeling about it and I don't really like it.
@@jurthefresh8855 Thanks for your nice comment and thanks for watching. I don't know the correct name for it, but they are two types of drills incorporated into a kind of workbench. In Belgium we call one of the two a milling machine.
@MorristheMinor are you sure? You can see every page of the manual in the video. There is one telephone in the clubhouse without tile like on the manual. Where is the other telephone? On briclink in the inventory list there are al so no black tiles. Or do you mean something else?
@@henrysvintagetoys Sorry, I thought I saw a telephone in the repair shop as well as the club. It seems strange not to have a handset for a phone, though.
Yes, it's true. And here some extra information: Octan is a fictional oil company that has appeared in multiple Lego sets since 1992.Prior to this, logos of the real-world oil companies were used. Esso was used up until 1966, when it was replaced by Shell in all markets except the United States, where Exxon was used instead. The Shell logo continued to be used on promotional sets after that time. Lego announced it would not renew its marketing agreement with Shell, under pressure from the environmental group Greenpeace. Octan first appeared in the 1992 sets "6397 Gas N' Wash Express" and "6594 Gas Transit". Since the release of the Octan name, Lego has not signed any further deals with Shell or other gas corporations, as Octan was made the primary vehicle fluid company.
@@playlists8831 For me, building a set is pure relaxation. so I don't rush at all when building a set and I also like to drink a cup of coffee while doing it. I also do a lot of research when I come across parts that I don't know. I have spent more than a day making this video and looking up everything and building and portraying it beautifully. If I just built it without filming it would take a little over two hours I think. 5 vehicles and a complete Marina. This is one of the larger sets that I have already built. It is bigger than Eldorado Fortress.Greetz Henry
@@henrysvintagetoys ah yes, as I suspected. Our building methods differ. I go all out, build as fast as possible. Not because I'm in a race, but because my sons beg me to build their Lego for them and I have something more important to do, like work, make dinner, fix something, etc. When I build my kits though, much more relaxing, I will spend a week building something like Voltron or Disney Castle. That, I love.
What's your opinion about the minifig with the extra eyebrows? It first appeared in this set and several other sets from 1994. Do you like it?

I had them as a child and they were my least favorite print. The eyebrows seemed so disproportional
Yes. It's nice that they try out different prints. But this one isn't that different from the iconic smiley with regular eyes and that's why I have a weird feeling about it and I don't really like it.
great set from the golden age!
Yes! And I'm happy that I can add it to my collection and show it to you! Thanks for watching. Greetz
One of my favorite sets! I never had it as a chilld but bought a used set several months ago. A very pleasing, holiday-summer like arrangement 😃
indeed. i also think it's a nice set, not only as a display piece but building it was also very fun to do. Thanks for watching and for your comment!
Very cool set!
I have it twice for the moment!
I love your's old set ❤
Thank you for your comment
Nice classic lego set so far!😊
Yep, i'm very happy with this set in my collection!
The column drill in the workshop is now my favorite lego tool ever, Amazing! Thank you for your awesome videos Henry!
Not sure what the other tool using the same parts is supposed to be. I would love to know!

@@henrysvintagetoys Dankjewel, hoe heet het in het Nederlands?
@@jurthefresh8855 is dat niet een frezemachine, om iets uit te frezen?
@@henrysvintagetoys Ja dat zou kunnen! :)
Finally! I've been waiting for this set! Thanks! :)
Enjoy and thanks for watching!
@@henrysvintagetoys 12:24 Looks like Don Karnage plane from Tale Spin TV series :D
@@peti7788 Yes It's true!
The two larger boats also remind me of 6679 from the original harbour sets.
Yes you are right!
i had this set 😊
Cool! it's a classic!
Lot of parts I've never seen before, interesting.
Yes It's always very interessting to discover new parts!
I never ended up having any "Octan" branded stuff for my city, I have a couple of the earlier gas station type sets that were Shell branded ones.
I think it's worth exploring, I think it's a nice color scheme, especially with the green
You have a nice voice.
Thank you for your nice comment!
I don't know if you mentioned it, but you'll need 2 1x2 tiles in black, as the handsets for the telephones are missing.

i didn t know, OCtan is not a real gas company.

Building all the elements will take several hours? what!?
I feel generous in saying, 709 parts, less than one hour build time. IMHO How many hours did it take you to build the Dreamliner?
