Hinckley Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 At the (indirect :-P ) request of The Frisian, I started this poll about which armor type you would prefer LEGO to produce (edit for Sir Dillon: produce meaning include in future sets :-P ...) For reference: (edit: take 3! :-| ) Pearl is on the left and metallic is on the right... who's a narcicist? It'll be interesting to see if this particular question gets a lot of activity but I thought it was at least worth the topic to see what discussion it sparks... :-) Enjoy! Quote
Axle Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 I haven't got either but is 'Printed Pearl' just printed ones altoghetr, or better still maybe post pictures. I think I like Printed armour. BTW Hinkly I am your fan.Love your comics. Quote
natelite Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 while i think the poll makes sense for only those who have both, would it help if we have, say peeron or bricklink, pictures of the two choices? *sweet* or maybe hinckley can post pics showing the two choices on a MF with the silver visor and on a MF with the grilled helm for everyone to consider? just a suggestion. edit: - hinckley - i think SW4J said that the metallic silver euroarmor was from the dwarf's mine set which you have. can you check if your version of the DM contained the metallic silver armor?

Starwars4J Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 Edited and done! X-D You see the metallic euroarmor in your set, right? My computer's down so I can't upload a pic, so maybe you could take a side-by-side pic of the two armors to use? Quote
Sir Dillon Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 We already have printed pearl armor though, so do you mean more of it? Quote

I'm on it! *sweet* Thanks buddy *wub* We already have printed pearl armor though, so do you mean more of it? We also now have metallic silver armor. I guess they realized without the printing the pearl looked crappy... Quote
natelite Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 yeah, i thought he was on it when he replied edited and done. *sweet* can you put the two versions together on MFs with the silver visors and also on MFs with the silver grill helms? X-D Quote

Ogel111 Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 None printed all the way! I love the classic castle charm *wub* Quote
Starwars4J Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 thanks hinckley! *wub* look at that thing!!! the grill helm & metallic armor looks fantastic!!! now all we need is a metallic silver standard helmet to go with the metallic silver visor and metallic silver armor. go go metallic silver color!!! You mean the bullet helm? I think we have every other helm...flared, visor, grill, kettlepot. I just want a metallic silver helmet to go with the metallic silver visor :-$ Quote

I just want a metallic silver helmet to go with the metallic silver visor :-$ i meant this. is that the bullet helm? bricklink referred to it as standard helmet, so i called it standard helmet. :-P it's currently pearl silver and looks horribly cheap. :-P Quote
gylman Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 LOL. This may be the most one sided poll since the Galidor vs Classic Castle debate. Quote
Norro Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 I'm not a fan of the printing, it just limits the faction use... God Bless, Nathan Quote
Hinckley Posted October 16, 2007 Author Posted October 16, 2007 LOL. This may be the most one sided poll since the Galidor vs Classic Castle debate. :-P I had a feeling it would turn out this way. Quote

TheFrisian Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 Although I kinda like the printing on the armour (it suits the Knights faction), the pearl silver just looks horribly fake and cheap... so I voted for metallic silver, as it looks so much more solid and realistic. Quote
Sir Dillon Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 Lol, I think I finally figured out this poll. *wacko* :-P You're asking which of these we want Lego to use in their future sets, right? In that case, metallic silver. Quote
Athos Posted October 16, 2007 Posted October 16, 2007 I'm not a big fan of printed armor, unless there are a lot of variations. And I'm not real fond of the shiny silver stuff either. I'd like to see just regular armor like what used to come in the old sets. Steve Quote
