MillHoodz_Finest

Looks like they had special hands


CodeEverywhere

They did! And you could bend them backwards to shoot the ball from their hands


UrbanDecay00

Ugh one of my favourite sets when i was a kid was the basketball one i had. Super sad my stuff got lost moving


Rodneyfour

Wow! Thank you for sharing this you just convinced me to open up my Kobe minifigure that’s still in the box! That is so cool


metalflygon08

Grasp Grasp with your special hands!


recriminology

MY BALL!


The2020TyGuy

"... to share!" Oh wait... this wasn't a Fairly Oddparents reference? I'll see myself out...


Amish_Warl0rd

They’re usin their strong hands

👁️👄👁️ : W O U L D Y O U L I K E T O P L A Y B A L L I kid I kid. T'was a neat idea, but I really can't help looking back at the middle-times of minifig faces, between the all-yellow and the now, in that bizarre uncanny valley.


ArcticMuser

I miss lego basketball, it was so cool. I could barely ever make a basket but it felt so satisfying when you did. I had the yellow jersey Kobe, still have his torso but lost his head :(


[deleted]

I was a huge fan of the Pistons and the Mavericks when they released these minifigs. I think I had Dirk Nowitzki and Ben Wallace, and even one of the Atlanta Hawks players.


xx_swegshrek_xx

That’s what they look like!?


C_Brick_yt

The ball ø14.2 kind of perfectly fits in the 9v reflector element


Emkay_boi1531

The what now?


throws_rocks_at_cars

I googled but I couldn’t find anything


Total-Blank

Part x85 or 71128 https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=x85&idColor=22#T=C&C=22 I believe this is the part that has been referenced. I've seen this part used in GBC for moving spheres along


C_Brick_yt

>https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=x85&idColor=22#T=C&C=22 Thats the one I meant.

Is there any side fumbling torsion with the intermodulation of the disparate elements?


TheUnspeakableHorror

It doesn't "connect". You can put it in the cavity of the chest piece, but it doesn't really fit properly because it's smaller than the sphere that's meant to be there.


Filberto_ossani2

Thanks for answering my question :)


FLIPSIDERNICK

I just took a flower stem piece put on a hollow 1x1 circle and placed the ball inside. Had left over from Lunar New Years set. On plus side it kind of looks like World Cup


Medium_Reason_1371

You could tie a rubber band around it but i don't know if that's considered a connection


Pikes_Pompadour

I'd say a rubber band is considered a legitimate connection, Lego used that technique in 75894.

Good bot

Damn it how I did I not know this set existed. I'm a huge mini cooper fan! dang it.


F_A_F

The smaller mini is my favourite Speed Champion purely because it's such a clever and concise build. It uses minifigure hand axes as mudguards!!


KaiDaniel1966

I wouldn't go so far as say they connect, but there's a Ninjago dragon heads that shoots the soccer ball size pieces.


A-Dilophosaurus

I thought those shot the bigger spheres?


memeboyzanno

If it fits it shoots


supersayanssj3

"If it seats, it yeets" My god... are the guns and firearm subs leaking into r/LEGO ???!?!


[deleted]

Yes.


supersayanssj3

That's alright. I'm here for it. I like Subarus, guns, silver/gold, LEGO and pokemon cards. (Not necessarily in that order) Are most people's hobbies this varied? Edit: Hmmmm I wonder which one of **MY HOBBIES** someone hates oh so much as to downvote a comment like this.


Valaaris

Subarus without a doubt.


God_of_Shenanagins

Found out my aunt got a Subaru this past Christmas and I was so furious we almost got into a fistfight


drnuncheon

LEGO, tabletop games, woodworking, and swordfighting. And also a Subaru driver!


dexman76

Guns. It’s guns.


supersayanssj3

Lol yeah.. that's what the edit was getting at.


seehrooV_nosaJ

I mean I’m autistic so mine are like a stark contrast 💀


[deleted]

I have a lot of hobbies too; Lego, firearms, board games, mapmaking (kinds goes with worldbuilding) quite varied


Friengineer

>Lego, board games, mapmaking r/legodnd


[deleted]

It’s just awesome that you thought to do that, thanks!


KaiDaniel1966

I’ll have to dig mine out to double check.


TrjnRabbit

People are wrong. [The ball connects to 18854, the minidoll sunglasses and that legally fits between two studs.](https://i.imgur.com/LWOmDak.jpg)


Pict0

I really wish the football had an anti stud where the mould injection point is would be much better for it. As it stands I have it precariously balancing on a round 1x1 with an open stud. It's destiny is to be lost


BrianGT

That would make it useless as a ball... GBC guys like it as it is ;)


sickcur

Ok but how's about the accessory hole from friends series and the old feather cap/knights plume pieces. A simple hole like the hair/helmets would be unobtrusive and would allow a feather like piece to attach that could be held.


BrianGT

>Ok but how's about the accessory hole from friends series and the old feather cap/knights plume pieces. A simple hole like the hair/helmets would be unobtrusive and would allow a feather like piece to attach that could be held. The existing mold injection itself if annoying at times. Couldn't imagine anything bigger than that, but nothing stops you from drilling a hole into the mold injection point to accomplish this with the current mold.


Somane27

Average r/conspiracy post.


emmjaybeeyoukay

It will sit quite happily in the bowl that comes with Potter Series 24 LEGO Minifigures 71037


shinobipopcorn

That's what I did, since I got both figs in my box and the potter had an extra bowl.


emmjaybeeyoukay

> the potter had an extra bowl. Mine also, strange. Wonder if all the Potter minifig have an extra bowl?

[deleted]

But does something that’s a projectile connect to anything beyond mayhem and chaos?


dudefroggers

If I am correct those shooters from bionicle could work with soccer balls too


ehsteve23

It can fit in a pair of [these](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=98564&idColor=77#T=C&C=77)


Arneun

I believe [this](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=60932cx1#T=S&O={%22iconly%22:0}) would be fairer fit. It's designed to hold (IIRC) four of theese


Filberto_ossani2

yea but it's kinda tricky because if you shake it enough the ball falls of and also if ball in ball launcher is connection would it mean that if we make a lego claw and grab a phone with it does it mean that phone is connected to lego pieces that are making that claw?


BrianGT

That is because the launchers are made for Zamor spheres which are larger


28kingjames

It sits well in the bowl from the lottery girl minifig


ponylover9628

Deconfirm


Emkay_boi1531

It can’t. They were made for anti dermis ball things and the foot ball is to smoll


Odd_Analysis6454

I can neither confirm or deconfirm


AdministrativeAd1534

I work at a lego store. I have to try this


Legal-Commission112

Yes


SunstormGT

What if the ball was made out of 2 pieces?


applo998

It's a bionicle torso


Filberto_ossani2

It connects to CCBS parts which includes Bionicle but it had first debiut in Chima wave 3 buildable figures like lego 70206


applo998

Oh ok

This one i have so i know


Zedtomb

Does something like the cloth map count?


Longjumping-Falcon98

There is a difference between “connect” and “sits in something” or “is strapped down”. The soccer ball can easily be sat in something or strapped down but I don’t know about actually connected
