anything that will rock your face off. you can go with the traditional realistic methods like tour vans, mobile stages, tour jet and motorcycles, or you can go full on with the guitar-shaped spaceships. you have a lot of creative liberties here.

I hate to just barge into a topic, but I have to give an obligatory congratulations to Almighty Benny, the pictures of that band ACTUALLY melted my face.

hey, thanks Bonn-O! Anyway back on topic. I already began construction on their tour bus before I went back to school (haha, Triple Lindey!) and I'm calling it the WAR WAGON. So far it's got a very large chassis and 6 extra large wheels with huge tires. I need ideas for all kinds of crazy ass details I can include that would make it worthy of a Scandinavian metal band.

slap spikes on the tires, and... well, on just about everything. i came to the realization that slapping something with a head of a dragon or satan or something right on the front would be great, and you could totally rig up some pyrotechnics to shoot out the mouth for increased burning/awesome.

then of course you need all the proper, metal living arrangements: ratty bunks that are far too cramped and small, hot tub, endless supply of guitar picks, and crap with chains, halbreds and morbid crap all over it.

actually, if you could install some amps that go on the outside, and perhaps even swing out for increased volume, that'd be another epic weapon/accessory.

I can totally see innocent fans being impaled all over the outside and being tied to the roof and in chains dragging behind the war wagon. I have no idea what a Lego guitar pick would look like, but it would probably have to be so ridiculously huge (for them to even hold it) that I need to include them just for the funniness value.

And of course still headbanging and throwing the horns. That's one nice thing about minifig hands, they come pre-made in horn-throwing pose.

The big big Vikings and Castle sets would provide all the dragonosity you could possibly want for a tour bus... Perhaps you could go a step further and add wings and a tail while you're at it: TROGDOR THE BUS-INATOR!

Thats an awesome idea... A dragon bus... Sounds like something a metal band would do too... Fire, spikes, sick-ass music... A dragon has it all.

That looks really good, but I think fjordhammer's bus would have fifty times as many spikes and a whole lot more red and black. It would also need some huge amps on the sides.

Is it solipsistic in here, or is it just me?
