🔥 Fan Build Spotlight! 🔥
Check out this awesome fan build of our GBC 56 Mine Quarry, created by YouTuber cru009 🙌
He built our Mine Quarry module and combined it seamlessly with his own custom GBC modules to create a full layout — and get this… it’s his very first GBC layout ever 🤯
Super impressive work, great flow, and a fantastic start to what we’re sure will be many more GBC creations. Big respect 👏
💬 What do you think of the layout?

🎢 Behind the scenes of our newest GBC! 🎢
For the LEGO 42145 Airbus H175 Rescue Helicopter set, we didn’t take the easy route — and that’s exactly what makes it special.
Working with a limited part count meant rethinking the design more than once. With fewer beams and structural elements available, every single piece had to be used cleverly to create a solid, reliable foundation. No shortcuts allowed. 🧱✨
At the same time, we used this GBC as a playground for brand-new ideas and mechanisms. Experimenting, testing, refining… some features took a little longer than expected, but the result was absolutely worth it.
We can’t wait to show you more — this one is shaping up to be something truly special 👀🔥
We’re excited to share that Martin Hillebrand (Germany) is using our PV-Productions PU Splitter Cable in his LEGO® train layout! 🙌
In the photo, you can clearly see the PU Splitter Cable integrated directly into the train, providing a clean and reliable power solution for the layout.
Huge thanks to Martin for sharing his setup with us. We love seeing our components in action on real-world LEGO® train layouts!

We’re thrilled to see our Raven GBC — built with the LEGO Technic 42168 John Deere Forage Harvester featured on ToyPro!🧱✨ They did an awesome job highlighting the creativity and ingenuity behind this build, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the support.
🤖 Raven isn’t just a cool alternate build — it’s a full-fledged Great Ball Contraption module designed for smooth ball throughput, clever mechanics, and even lifelike motion using only the original set’s parts. 🌟 This build pushes the limits of what’s possible with one LEGO set and inspires builders to think creatively beyond the instructions.
📥 Free building instructions are available if you want to make Raven yourself — go check it out!
Big thanks to ToyPro for featuring our work! 🙌

🎡 Throwback: GBC 38 – Funky Ferris Wheel 🎡
Some GBC modules never lose their charm.
GBC 38 Funky Ferris Wheel is one of those builds — a classic PV Productions GBC from a few years ago that still delivers smooth motion and eye-catching mechanics.
Built entirely from LEGO® Technic set 42098 (Car Transporter), this module features a large rotating Ferris wheel with 12 carriages that continuously lift and release GBC balls in a steady, rhythmic flow.
⚙️ Why it’s still special
• A big, smooth Ferris wheel that dominates any GBC layout
• Automatic ball loading with reliable timing
• Continuous loop: balls always return to the wheel
• Hand-crank powered, with an easy option to motorize
• Optional extras like Xylophone Keys, or Funnel elements
With a footprint of 80 × 70 cm and a height of 25 cm, GBC 38 works perfectly as a standalone module or as part of a larger Great Ball Contraption setup.
If you’ve built it back in the day — or you’re discovering it again now — GBC 38 remains a fun and satisfying build that still holds up today.
