This working bowling alley is the perfect spot to discuss how to get restitution for a ruined rug.
This functioning bowling alley has a mechanism that separates the balls from the pins, the crank driven pin setting machine, and a working ball return.
This build is up for vote on Lego Ideas, so if you dig it make sure you show it some support so it can become an official kit. And if if feels incomplete without Walter and The Dude, you can buy minifigs of them to make sure the set is as movie accurate as possible.
A fully functional Bowling Alley which includes:
Working Pinsetter – Automatically resets the bowling pins with the turn of a handle, which slides a brand new set of pins into play and neatly arranges them in the classic triangle pattern, ready to be knocked over again!
Working Ball Return – Transports the bowling balls all the way from the back of the alley, via an underground channel complete with an elevator system that carries the balls to the top!
Ball & Pin Collection Area – Hidden behind the bowling alley, this automatically separates the bowling ball from the pins as they pass through a brick-built filter. The ball gets sent to the ball return mechanism and the pins fall into a convenient collection tray!
Realistic Details – Including a scoreboard, comfy seating area, snack stand, bowling ball storage shelf and more!
All of this is built into a 43×19 stud area featuring a smart dark blue and gold color scheme which makes for a timeless design that can be used in classic and modern settings. It’s a perfect size for both minifigures and humans to interact with, and the stylish design combined with the functional play features would make it a really unique LEGO set that is fun for all ages!
