No, new guy, don't trust the words of a man with several holes in his head

Edit. He's ba-aack. Always fun to see his disguise evolve- his name and profile aren't a clear tip off this time, but he's got a unique speech pattern and no one else on this forum links stuff. Always happy to watch the Turtle persona evolve.

Called it a month ago.

Don't most of us have several holes in our head?

Maybe if you're a weird freak with like a nose, or ears, or a mouth. Am I the only normal person who's head is just complete smooth with no distinguishing features?

Guys! Please buy all CITY/Police (2024) sets... yes Arkham Asylum, we can make it.

 

He did it, his working is finally getting paid off. He bought enough City sets.

He’s truly not the hero the DC theme deserves, but the one it needs.

Plus helmet holes

Sadly he's gone forever and has never returned since

Even @BrickBob Studpants has helmet holes, assuming the profile picture is some sort of shared consciousness between the two figures.

Yes. Of course.

Turtles canonically have 13 regenerations after all.

How many eurodollars does each regeneration cost?

I imagine as much as a shadowbox, that's why it takes time, in the months between each he buys like 4 shadowboxes which delays the process

Beautiful. Simply stunning. A fine piece of architecture.

Can you please change Slough? Or Milton Keynes?

You know, I might, if the servers didn't shut down somehow more than Eurobricks I'd have finished one I started in Bugthorpe (not got the same reputation as the other two but still, funny British places to namedrop)  might do one over Coventry Market too for other reasons

Glad to see the bionicle representation, and what assumably is a reference to Reviving Bionicle with the "Hail Denmark, Praise Be to Lego" quote.

[Swordy]

Love the reference to Summer of Slug ‘25, truly a highlight of my summer. I’m saddened by how far off and lonely Man is from the rest of the group. D. Dummy is the best part, of course (the big monument in the top left, yes, but also the little emoji next to the chopped LEGO logo). Curious why Twitchy from Ninjago is in a large, looming silhouette; never in my all my days did I consider him a part of the LEGO Omniverse-war-lore, large or small.

True, Summer of Slug is always a highlight of the season, I onnly started on wPlace because it kept coming up in the SoS Discord. Funny enough I was going to Slough to make another Dummy as @CloneCommando99 asked and saw a Slug based piece of art so added Dummy to it (it was definitely Slugger based, no other situations would have the word Slug used).

 

Here's the rest of Slough if anyone's curious.

If he stays, there can be no party. he must be out there in the night, staying vigilant.

Wherever a party needs to be saved, he's there. Wherever there are masks, wherever there's tomfoolery and joy, he's there.

But sometimes he's not cause he's out in the night, staying vigilant. Watching. Lurking. Running. Jumping. Hurtling. Sleeping. No, he can't sleep. You sleep. he's awake. he doesn't sleep. he doesn't blink. is he a bird? No. he's a man. he is man. Or is he? Yes, he is man.

Yeah, quite a few Bionicle things dotted around, had a friend describe the site as a map of people's autism, Bionicle was always gonna show up on something like that.

Who knows, the greatest revelations are yet to come I suppose, maybe he means more than we could possibly know.

We've probably had the same emoji's on this forum for decades at this point, how hard would we need to Jonkle to get a dummy one?

Do we think Minifigures were just more evil in the early 2000s?

No. Lex Luthor didn’t get released until the 2010s. And he stole forty cakes. That’s as many as four tens. And that’s terrible. Has any other Lego villain been that evil?

Then there’s Master Chen, a 2015 minifigure who was sinister enough to take Puffy Potstickers off the menu.

And if those aren’t evidence enough… Corncob was released in 2017.

True true, I don't believe we've ever seen the skulls of those characters, must be on a case by case basis. Chen? 2000s skull. Magisto? Classic Skull. Captain Redbeard? The sick trans-red classic skull. Corn Cob? One of those massive molded Ninjago ones

Well, it doesn’t appear SW is improving anytime soon.

Aslume Eternal. BRICKEST NIGHT is coming, so let’ have some jonks.

Haha, they all use the smart brick? They're betting hard on that. Do we think it'll last shorter or longer than the Super Jumper?

Longer than the super jumper, shorter than the buildable figures and comic books.

Mechs will remain undefeated as the best superheroes theme gimmick.

The super jumper was arguably the best of the gimmicks as it solely consisted of adding a piece to a normal set. If you didn't want the gimmick you could simply discard the jumper and you were left with a totally normal set with no value difference. It almost feels unfair to count it- it's more of a power burst/power blast type thing.

Mechs are the best that comprise a major feature of a set or take up set slots.

They're really pushing it, so I wouldn't be surprised if it held on until the end of 2027, but it's gonna be a rough few years for lego sales wise if they're going (batman) all-in like this. 

The good news is we'll probably be able to get these sets for the prices they'd be if they didn't include a smart brick due to the absurd sales they'll be on. I thought summer 2025 sets were gonna be on sale by christmas and that would be the worst in recent LSW history- I wouldn't be surprised if some retailers had the March sets on significant sales by star wars day.
