LEGOWORLD 2011 - Zwolle

Last year I was extremely privileged to be able to attend LEGO World in Zwolle.  This year I am insanely jealous that I couldn't make it but luckily Xander has been taking plenty of video for us :)

Matthias has already posted Day 1 (KiNXT sumo's are cool!)  but here is Day 3 and Day 4 (not sure what happened to Day 2.... will need to have a stern word to Xander!)

Highlights for me from these videos were the NXT Blimp and Vending Machine.

Xander Soldaat has published a video on the first day of LEGOWORLD:

LEGOWORLD 2011

Only three days to go for world's largest LEGO® event: LEGOWORLD 2011 in Zwolle (Netherlands).
Starting from next Wednesday, it will last no less than a complete week until 26th of October, providing LEGO of all kind by hundreds of exhibitors, building activities, shops and other spectacles for ten thousands of visitors.

For a impression of how fantastic LEGOWORLD is, have a look at the various posts on the event The NXT STEP has published in the past.

LEGO® MINDSTORMS featured in Megafactories

Megafactories, the TV channel of National Geographics in the United Kingdom, features a small footage on LEGO® MINDSTORMS that was filmed at LEGOWORLD 2010 in Zwolle:



Thanks, Laurens, for uploading the video.

"Bug" an official Bonus model movie

During LEGOWORLD 2011 CPH, there was a nice new movie presented on a BIG screen above the MINDSTORMS area. The movie had 2 totally new models that can be build with a single NXT 2.0 retail kit (#8547).
The movie is present on the LEGO MINDSTORMS website, but I think most of you did not find it yet..
therefore here it is, enjoy.

Flying NXT Airship

So here's is something that I consider one the most fascinating NXT creations of the last years: C5, the Flying NXT Blimp.
Two danish students, Lasse and Kenneth, created it for the LEGOWORLD Copenhagen 2011 where they managed to actually get it flying, controlling it remotely. They even attached a camera to it, shooting movies and photos from above:



Supercool!

You can get more details on their web site, BrickIt.dk.

Besides, the movie is also hosted on the official LEGO MINDSTORMS site.
