  1. Wow this looks wonderful! Great detail, and that purple tree is both interesting and beautiful
  2. That's good to hear! Sorry, I forgot to link the maps I've found. Here they are: http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8023/7689173858_558b55456c_b.jpg http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/rogueang/Avalonia/avalonia_book_ii_20150830.jpg It seems the islands I wanted to claim used to belong to another user, but they seem vacant in the current map. Looks like I'm in for a luck! I know I've already asked too much questions, but I have one more, about the currency and language. Do all countries(?) use a common currency, or do Kaliphinians need to visit the nearest exchange office when they travel to Nocturnus? Do dwarves speak the same language as goblins and humans, or do they have their own languages and speak the common language(human language), like in most fantasy settings? These might lead to some interesting builds and events, especially when one is using characters from other places in his builds. And again, thanks a lot for your answers!
  3. Thanks a lot for the information. Is it possible to be the owner of a land as a wandering merchant or sellsword, perhaps one who saved(or stole) enough gold to buy the land, or one who inherited the land and still owns it, but couldn't douse the wanderlust in his blood? Also, I found 2 different maps and there are some differences between the two. Not only some islands are claimed in one and not claimed in the other, there are geographical differences as well. Which one is the most recent, up-to-date map?
  4. Hi there! I'm planning to join Avalonia, but I have a couple of questions. I'm planning to have my sigfig as a half-elf, but do they even exist in lore? I not, I can change him to be another race that exist in the lore. Also, can anyone explain claiming land a bit more in detail? Is there a map that shows which islands and parts of land are claimed and which are not?

    Wow, it looks awesome! I love how you made the jet engines. Also, that robot spider is really cool.

    LEGO Sci-Fi 2016 Pictures and Rumors

    Might not be the best design, but I really liked how it looks. It reminds me of the vehicles of Exploriens, particularly 6938(even though it isnt an aircraft). Also, besides the Cyborg, the Spy in Series 16 might be useful for Sci-Fi MOCs too.
  7. Wow, Snow Queen is really beautiful! Not much of a historical MOC material, but I'm sure she'll fit in fantasy MOCs perfectly. Also, it looks like she has the new dress piece like S15 Queen. While I'd prefer an old skirt/robes lower torso part instead, this one might still work. Rogue looks perfect, his new hood piece is really good. At first I imagined S16 Rogue as a swordsman, but an archer works just as well too. But more importantly, did anyone see his crest? He has a Wolfpack insignia! Similar to how they referred to Forestmen in the bio of S1 Forestman, I think they'll mention Wolfpack in Rogue's bio. On the other hand, Imp is a bit of a dissapointment for me. I thought it'd be a real imp, I wasn't expecting a costume. Then again, I wasn't even expecting 3 costume minifigures in the same series.

    Vintage Lego 6035 Castle Guard !Review!

    Thanks a lot for the great review! I really like this set, but I have to admit that I liked the alternative build a little bit better. And I have to say, what a creative and brillant use of the windscreen! There is one thing that confused me though... While I agree that this set would look great with 6074 and 6073, I think it doesn't quite fit anywhere near the UCS Imperial Star Destroyer http://brickset.com/sets/10030-1/Imperial-Star-Destroyer

    The Parrot Question

    I am torn apart between printed and marbled versions. While the colours on marbled ones definitely last longer, I'm going with printed ones because of the detail and distinction of face, eyes, beak etc. I suppose that mostly depends on with which set you got them for the first time. As for me, I got my first solid dark gray parrot with 1736 Wizard's Cart, then the second one with 6020 Magic Shop. Being pet-bird of a wizard and having a matching colour, I always thought of it as an owl, even if it doesn't look like an owl at all Hey, no love for owl and seagull? Although ı agree, it'd be nice to get a better variety of birds.
  10. Legs of Peter Pan and both the torso and legs/skirt of Malefice seems useful. I can't really see the torso or legs of Captain Hook, so I can't tell whether it might be useful or not. Looks like Ariel's gem is a new colour, light pink, which will be a nice addition to King's treasury Also, I'm not sure if Alice is holding a blue bottle or it is just the reflection of the blue background.
  11. I completely agree with you. A single Ninjago series actually makes sense, as they might use alternate minifigures of each character(like CMF Emmet and Emmet from Lego Movie sets). But a whole CMF series on Batman would be a complete waste. We have several different Batman minifigs all of which have already been released with Batman sets. Besides, there would be no regular CMF series in 2017 that way, which makes absolutely no sense.

    [MOC] Mixel-Ent

    Cool build! You captured the Mixels style perfectly! I couldn't see any Duplo bricks. Which one is that?

    [MOC] Lakeside Temple

    This is really awesome! I really liked the stone wall, it is brillant idea! I also liked how Master Wu is peacefully meditating by the pond By the way, I believe most Ninjago minifigures, or at least their parts, can be used for traditional 1990's ninja MOCs. So even as it is now, it has the 1990's ninja feeling for me

    Zunari's Shop

    Great! More Zelda MOCs are always welcome! Can you put a couple of pics of the interior as well?
  16. S13 turban is more of an Indian turban than an Arabian turban. Besides, PoP headgear was only released with PoP sets and it was only in black and white, so a new colour like tan or dark tan might be good. Although, a completely new headgear is always welcome of course And like I said before, that scimitar is simply oversized for a minifigure.
  17. Ah, I thought EW's sword was a scimitar as well. That scimitar you mentioned fits much better, but I think it is a bit too big for a minifigure. That scimitar was introduced with 4 Juniors Pirates in 2004 and since the mini(?)figures of that theme were bigger, it looked fine on them. But, while they've used it in a couple of sets with regular minifigures(Ninjago, Adventurers, Prince of Persia), it is practically too big for a minifigure. Perhaps they might make a modified/slightly smaller version of that scimitar for AK.
  18. When I heard about the Jewel Thief in Series 15, I was hoping for a medieval style thief who steals right from the King's treasury. Well, it turned out to be a city style thief, but I might be getting what I hoped for in Series 16 I guess the Rogue will be a castle/medieval minifigure. I wonder if he will be a thief, or more of a highwayman kind of rogue? If second, perhaps they might include a Wolfpack symbol somewhere on his torso(or shield, if he has one), or at least mention it in his bio, like they did with Forestman, Evil Knight and Space Villain. As for the Arabian Knight, I wonder if they'll use the headgear from Prince of Persia sets (88287) ? Also, I wonder what kind of sword he will have? Probably a scimitar like Series 13 Egyptian Warrior, but perhaps a new mold altogether. I don't see him carrying a shield though, I don't know why.

    Fantasy Funnies

    Hahahah, the last one definitely describes Skyrim Even if I've slain a legendary dragon and a dozen of frost trolls only a hundred meters away from their camp, then proceeded to cut the leader of his gang in half and effortlessly butcher the rest of the gang, that low level bandit still charges to me head on, believing that his rusty iron sword and worn out leather armor would be more than enough to kill me

    Puns in Character names?

    What he said. I don't think there was anything else to the name Vladek. As for the puns, only one I can remember of from the second Forestmen theme, Dark Forest. Name of their leader is Rob N. Hood.

    Nativity / Bethlehem

    Very nice build! Amongst other things, I really like how you made trees and the well. They come with 7573 Battle of Alamut set. Also, there is a camel with a slightly darker colour in 7571 Fight for the Dagger set.
  22. UCS Jedi Temple! Please make it happen Lego!

    [MOC] Urtican Wellness Center

    Awesome build! The unusual size of (mini?)figures makes it all the more interesting for me By the way, how could you separate the polar bear head from the torso? I tried to do the same for horses, but it was impossible for me.

    Future Castle Sets?

    Thanks for sharing the pictures! Inn and marketplace look like they have some potential. I totally liked the new style book with a dragon on its cover, also the shield in the marketplace looks great as well. I don't know why, but that shield reminds me of the famous mirrorshield from Legend of Zelda series. I'll be sure to get a few of it. The dragon egg in the baby dragon set seems nice, I'll probably get it. There is an hourglass in the school of dragons set! I waited for an hourglass piece for so long, at this point, I don't even mind the pink sand inside it. Also, as far as I know, the crossbow in that set is the only crossbow besides NK and SW sets that can actually shoot. Besides, this one looks like it is the most suitable one for historical themes. I wonder if it could be modified to shoot 18041 harpoon pieces instead of 1x1 round tiles?

    Future Castle Sets?

    Your call of peace falls upon deaf ears! We Castle fans will fight to put an end to this Nexo-filth until our last breath!
