For "The Brickster"...if possible by a few seconds for users to fix, not everyone has high speed lines for web, I had problems but your post came after a few seconds, a bit obsessive!!!

If you plan to add a picture or link to a MOC, I'll leave this open for a brief period.

Just to let you know, those people don't look Indian

Also, what's the point of this topic? Are you asking us whether to build a Chinatown or Little India? If so, a Chinatown would be more interesting. I'm Indian and Little Indias aren't very fascinating IMO.

Oh, and here's the pic deeplinked:

Unrelated to your MOC: EB does receive spam, some of which is automatically generated. I saw your topic title, then read your description which made no sense at the time. Then I saw this additional topic:

Title: Dedicated to THE SHIELD

Description: My personal "cameo" for my best Tv series"The Shield"! Vic, Shane, Lem, Ronnie, David, Danny, Dutch, Claudette, Tina and Julien!

Without pictures or links to your creations (at the time of posting), or any indication that these were intended to be MOCs (by posting "MOC" in front of your topic name like other members in the Town forum), it looked like spam to me. I did leave both of your topics open in case it was due to technical problems.

I just so happen to be reading some other Town Topics at the time of your posts. To remedy this next time, please post a description that provides a little more info - otherwise it looks like spam.

In that case, nice figs, but as I said, the Indians don't really look Indian

I've never seen the male Chinese figs from TLC - I assume they're from the Orient line.

I don't think the Chinese really look Chinese either! Looks like they exaggerated the 'slant' a bit too much on the men to the point where they look sinister (Although this might've been intentional if they're meant to be villains)! Though I'm usually opposed to oversensitivity, I could imagine some people taking a little offense to the design of the figs. The female fig does a better job of the asian eyes without looking too caracature-ized.
