How to link Bionicle and Hero Factory?
Transparency for Effect replied to Agent Fusion's topic in LEGO Action Figures
Well they've both made little cameos with LEGO system in Studios Backlot and LEGO Club animations. -

LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 12 Rumours and Discussion
Transparency for Effect replied to Rufus's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Hey, I'd be okay with an original series instead of a year entirely to do with external licenses -
LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 12 Rumours and Discussion
Transparency for Effect replied to Rufus's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Assuming said information is correct, and the series is indeed not based off of the MMO: Space Miner - Not sure what this is supposed to imply. Battle Goddess - A female warrior does sound like a good concept. Wizard - Interesting to see if it looks more interesting than the Castle Wizards. Dino Tracker - Not sure what this is supposed to be, and if it'd be interesting without a Dinosaur anyway. Swashbuckler - Sounds like it could be a cool pirate. Jester - It'd be interesting to see the CM take on a Jester. Piggy Guy - Another animal character? Okay. Hun Warrior - Again, it's nice to see such a character idea. Fairytale Princess - Again, it seems interesting as to what direction the CM may take this. Pizza Delivery Man - Cool idea! Video Game Guy - Likewise, especially if they come up with a new mould like a video game controller. Spooky Girl - Still wondering what this could be. Prospector - It sounds nice to have more alternative roles for Pirates and Cowboys. Genie Girl - Like "I Dream of Genie"? Rock Star - Been done. Lifeguard - Been done, unless they take it a different direction or it's a male one. Sounds good to me! -

I'm really curious as to what the Spooky GIrl is, probably something Horror related, right? We could always use more of those. -
The LEGO Movie Sets News and Discussion

Well, we had fleshies and yellow characters in the same set (twice if you count the Cinema promotional set). -

Got one as a gift yesterday, and to my joy, it was Bart! Which goes well with Milhouse and Lisa :3 -
The LEGO Movie Sets News and Discussion
Transparency for Effect replied to Itaria No Shintaku's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Not sure if I'm interested in any of the newer expensive sets besides maybe Emmett's Mech. It also annoys me how I've missed out on both Pyjamas Emmett offers, and now they cost £10 a pop :/ -
How to place buildings with baseplates on other baseplates?
Transparency for Effect posted a topic in LEGO Town
So, I'm starting to work on this LEGO City, but a lot of the buildings I'm using have baseplates at the bottom, and I'm wondering what the best way is to use them with other baseplates, like the road ones. I've seen it done before, with buildings like the Modular Buildings. -
How to place buildings with baseplates on other baseplates?
Transparency for Effect replied to Transparency for Effect's topic in LEGO Town
Problem. This works for flat surfaces, but whatever I try with studs on the very bottom, there's always some imbalance. Help? -
Non-physical Lego Characters In Physical?
Transparency for Effect replied to Dorayaki's topic in LEGO Licensed
Behold, the grandaddy of non-physical characters... Reminded me of Little Robots, which LEGO also had connections to. -
Female characters you want to see in the next LEGO Movie!
Transparency for Effect replied to Transparency for Effect's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Back on topic, simply put, I completely agree with this point made about the first film and if it passes the Bechdel test: "Wait..unikitty doesn't count because she's not a human character? Uh, NONE of them were human, they were all Lego people..." The test is passed instantly at the 0:43 mark of . -
Help with identifying parts/sets!

Heh, Clutch gear. -

Question: Was the wheel piece used on Bernie Von Beam's head even physical? -
Out of curiosity, how much does around twenty pieces cost from "Bricks and Pieces", since this topic seems relevant to it? I'm trying to rebuild the Apple Tree House and I'm close to having all the necessary pieces :) To get this back on topic, how is everyone's modular buildings coming along picture-wise?

Transparency for Effect replied to Transparency for Effect's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Plus the minor fact they don't actually have the rights to Spongebob any more Maybe the Spongebob set appeared in the Simpsons episode purely because it was either a carry over from the episode's long production period or it just didn't bother anyone that it was used They were actually going to put in a standalone Duplo minifigure as a character in this original script, appropriately speaking in extremely simple terms, and there was of course that Duplo reference in 'Brick Like Me' where the younger, baby character (Maggie) is one of the figures ("They're so cute when they're Duplo!"). To be honest, besides using up older and unused themes (that kind of sounds unlikely in itself), I can kind of only see them using Jack Stone ironically, much less they also use someone like Clutch Powers. Besides, why not just make your own? -

Transparency for Effect replied to Transparency for Effect's topic in Special LEGO Themes
She brings in more female characters! Great idea! So I suppose no 4 Juniors figures or Galidor either?Vampyre's Bride isn't a CM, but it'd be interesting to have such an antagonist be one of the main team characters (or Alien Queen). -
Favorite childhood theme?
Transparency for Effect replied to InvincibleEagle's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Outside of Bionicle, if we're choosing plain System sets then they were certainly lesser at that time, but I guess it could be something like Jack Stone X-Pod. I used to love that when I was younger, even though we only had two of them. -

Wait, why is Avatar (The Last Airbender?) a bigger problem? Because it only had two sets? -
I remember they WERE going to make a Phineas and Ferb board game, but it got shelved. It's instructions are still available however... http://lego.wikia.com/wiki/3868_Phineas_and_Ferb

Transparency for Effect replied to Transparency for Effect's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Having any Disney-original characters in there would be a great idea, especially since they got Star Wars in there. Like Toy Story :3 The Monster Fighters world also sounds good, especially since there's a whole collection of classic monsters in LEGO, MFs or not. Marvel has met DC in the past, but it would also be an absolute clusterfuck of rights to deal with in every direction (mostly if you consider ALL Marvel superheroes; aren't movie rights held up between Disney, Sony and Fox? Does it still count if it's LEGO? Etc.). -

Transparency for Effect replied to Transparency for Effect's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Gali or Nokama from Bionicle would be awesome. How's that? Just because they've lost the license of Spongebob to Mega Bloks? They still have TMNT, and weirdly enough, a Spongebob set actually appeared in the recently aired 'Brick Like Me' epsiode I'm still confused as to how that works... -
Someone should Cuusoo Ideas that.

Seems like Disney has a phobia of putting its mainline classic characters in proper minifig/system form. Mickey - Fabuland/Duplo Winnie the Pooh - Duplo (twice) Disney Princess - Friends/Duplo Peter Pan (Jake and the Neverland Pirates) - Duplo

Modular Building Sets - Rumours and Discussion
Transparency for Effect replied to The Jersey Brick Guy's topic in LEGO Town
Come to think of it, narrowing down buildings that are too costful (including Bricklinking individual pieces), already present in building type in town or just plain "eh", leaves me with the Grand Emporium and Parsian Resturaunt of the Modular Buildings and the Monster Fighters Haunted House for the hypothetical single £100 large building to occupy the town. I personally think the Haunted House might be the better option; it practically completes the theme, it may be the most suited for a single large building in town (as opposed to just one modular?) and just plain looks awesome enough. Might change my mind, but it seems like the most reasonable choice to me.
