Lego 71786 Zane's Ice Dragon Creature Alternate Build Guide

[@mechabrickman]

This redesign is incredible!! I love the head and the articulation, too notch quality, seriously.

[@thebricksong]

Thank you :)

[@draconiumnova5110]

Ok this is an insane build. Was not expecting shoulder articulation.

[@chsoo92]

I was going to skip this set because both versions look unattractive to me... but this version makes me consider purchasing the set. Your version outshines the original one. Great job!!

[@thebricksong]

Thanks, glad you like it!

[@HeyBudHowsItGoin]

Just finished building the set - some tips/info I think are important for anyone thinking about building it: -I’d recommend playing this video at 0.5x or 0.25x speed, because it goes pretty fast and doesn’t go into too much detail on how some sections are put together. -The left and right chest areas (the light blue triangles on either side of the front torso) are very fragile and fall off very easily. The same goes for a lot of the other pieces that are attached to these sections. You have to be really careful when attaching the arms, banners, and wings because of this. -This set doesn’t have very good balance. It’s very easy for it to accidentally bend over forwards or backwards at the waist, so if you do build it you’ll probably need to prop it up against something. I wouldn’t recommend letting it stand without support, as it’ll probably get knocked over pretty easily. -You’ll end up with a lot of left over parts after building this set, with about 200-300 pieces in total. This set looks really good on display but I’d keep these things in mind before you decide to build it.

[@zhongkenlim7537]

I really appreciate comments like these, showing the audience a bigger picture. Still, the uploader did a good job of at least showing the steps provided a lot of alternative build creators don't. Many thanks to you both.

[@thegalaxyreaperplayz1287]

I really agree

[@stinger7842]

Makes me want to actually buy it, would love to see instructions for your version of zanes titan mech.

[@thebricksong]

Ill be sure to upload them if i do revisit that mech!

[@CoolVictor2002]

I enjoy watching how to build so i can build better, haven't touched my collection in about 2 years

[@detorresedreannkingmarione7242]

Your version makes it look like the falcon. Reminds me of the good old days as a ninjago fan

[@laneleach]

I'm going to combine this with Zane's legacy titan mech, see what I can make of it.

[@ThatOne_Fella]

I liked the video and downloaded it just because of the Articulation, The Head design and the Shuriken. It helps me give my MOCS more articulation and more (when I have enough to get more sets, which I can't😭)

[@magmastraiker1436]

I want this set for my birthday, just for dragon alone , seeing that the ather form...is not very extraordinary, especially compared to a 6-legged dragon. But. Now, thanks to you, now I got 2 excellent build options for this set . Very creative for sure. Something my younger self was very good at. Nice to see people that go full on whit these stufs still . Very nice video and build.

[@thebricksong]

Thank you and happy birthday in advance!

Zane’s ultimate true potential form

[@Spinosaurus_Aegyptiacus]

Great Build! Im not going to build it because i do prefer dragons but if i wasnt such a dragon collector i would definitly build this!

[@thebricksong]

Thanks! The dragon mode for this set is pretty unique too

[@kennare73a]

If Lego does not hire this man damn there missing out

[@vladimirstaicu2200]

Hi, I built the MOC. Very nice to see other ways to use plates and the shoulder and abs join was cool to see. Linework and aesthetic is really cool and looks balanced overall. The head is really great 👍! But i find the chest, armpit,abs and legs flimsy and it's difficult to grab it to pose and not drop shit. Also top heavy and foot articulation and hip area are rather stiff to accomodate diff poses. Gonna see how i can reinforce it. Really cool original style and had fun making it. Looking forward to more!!!! 🥳🥳🥳

[@TheFrenchyBricks]

Very cool alt build mate !

[@thebricksong]

Glad you like it, thanks man!

I like it how its better than the official alt build

Thanks!

This looks sooo good

Nice, I plan on using this

Pls build the ice dragon creature polybag into a mini ice dragon warrior please 🥺🥺🥺❤️❤️❤️

[@trinidadlopez2356]

I bought the set for my bday costing me 150$ and I was disappointed then i saw this ❤❤

[@LoidForever]

Hopefully you can do the new heatwave dragon into one of those! I would really like to see it.

[@viktorviktorov6313]

It’s amazing

[@lovexmiku255]

amazing i book marked it

[@LilTini]

this is soo good

[@thebricksong]

Thank you!

[@HeyBudHowsItGoin]

This looks great! Do you only need one of these sets for the build? And did it leave many pieces left over?

[@thebricksong]

Yes, only 1 copy of the set is needed! There will also be a handful of leftover pieces

[@Rainbow.Pegacorn.Cosplay]

I presume no additional pieces were used in this alternate build?

[@thebricksong]

Correct, no additional pieces needed!

[@falinksgod3439]

This looks awesome! But I don’t have the set so 😢

[@Bktrussian]

Same :')

[@llobe965]

[@Jaume1]

How tall is the mech? If you don’t know, to which mech is the size similar too?

[@jeriyang1593]

One question did you have to destroy the set

[@thebricksong]

yes, I had to dismantle the set to build this moc!

[@christopherwhaley6739]

If you want. You can do a collaboration with Chubbybots. He also does impressive work with Legos.

[@spaghetti4064]

can you explain to me what bags i need for each limb

[@cyberdasherxd2505]

Which bag numbers to use first?

[@puppetfan4634]

Nice

[@spaghetti4064]

Hey can you tell me what bags you need for each part

[@talhaozturk2141]

the head is too good

[@thebricksong]

Thank you, glad you like it!

[@nemisisa]

Are there any additional parts?

[@thebricksong]

Nope! Just the pieces found in the set

[@masaarska6270]

So I need more parts from my collection or no

[@blankified]

This is a very nice alternative build, u youre very good at alternative builds so i was wondering for you to make an alternative build to the crystal dragon om the 71775 ninjago set since it looks pretty bad and i have it but wanted to make it better but I'm not good at making custom builds so i was wondering if u can

[@thebricksong]

Thank you for the support! I dont have the 71775 set, but if i do get one in the future ill give it a go. You should try it out yourself too! Have fun experimenting with the pieces and build :)

[@eltobso9732]

maybe look on rebrickable. i have seen some nice alt builds of the crystal king set on there.

[@Roastedtatuhs93]

Ok, I was originally gonna get this because I liked the design and liked it in general, but I might get it just for this…

[@thebricksong]

Thanks! Its a good Ninjago set

[@alonsogaming1765]

How tall is this version?

[@lexudary.]

Can you do one for the golden ultra dragon if possible?

[@thebricksong]

I dont have that set, but will certainty do so if I get it! There are some cool alt builds of that set out there as well

[@luka5146]

I'm just curious all of the pieces that you used are from the dragon?

[@kryniuxofficial587]

Yes, you don't need the pieces from other sets

[@luka5146]

Thanks that really helps

[@TTHBLOX_]

No.. nono.. im NOT getting a second one to build this.. Noooo brain!! Bad brain

Are you going to do the four armed crystal king? I know you did the alternative build but I'm really interested in the upgraded one that uses parts outside of the set
