    LEGO Star Wars 2015 Pictures and Rumors

    I was worried about getting accused of abuse myself, when a couple of sets were missing pieces within a month. No issues yet, but I dread having this happen. I'm very happy to hear that BB-8 fits in the Speeder. I have the Speeder, now I just need the droid!

    Nexo Knights 2016

    I'm hoping for some unofficial photos even sooner. I want to know if this theme will be worth my wallet or not!

    Nice work! Great Gargoyles and greenery!

    Favorite Collectable Minifigure?

    The Aztec and Island Warriors are great. I wish I had them, maybe would have voted them favorites.

    Nexo Knights 2016

    It's mid September, so hopefully we don't have too long to wait for information.

    Marvel Superheroes 2016 Rumors And Discussion

    I hope that Thanos comes with the Gauntlet printed on his hand. Preferably, he would have an additional hand to switch so you could have him with and without. Has anyone heard anything about this?

    "I'll bite your legs off"

    "None shall pass!" Great job!

    (MOC) Renegade's Fortress

    This looks fantastic, especially considering that you're working with your old parts. It's much better than I could have made with the bricks I had when I got back into LEGO. I love Wolfpack and Forestmen, and this suits both really well. The guys preparing the fish are my favorite part.
  9. True, the scale is not completely realistic, but at least most of the weapons and accessories feel proportionate to the minifigure. The scimitar feels like a sword that's as big as a person, it looks ridiculous compared to all other swords.

    What did you buy today?

    I picked up a second Gorilla Legend Beast (70125) because I found one discounted at the local Toys R Us.
  11. I've got more Fly Monsters than I need just to have them with 2 claw hands. I love it.

    Nexo Knights 2016

    It's probably not far off from what we'll get though. I really hope we get some real pictures soon, to either reinforce or counter what we all believe (that this will be futuristic, not castle).

    What could be in a Mythology series of CMFs?

    Bare with chest hair, I would imagine. And yeah, there should absolutely be a new Pan pipe piece! Returning to the original topic, I'd love to see a Selkie. Like a Mermaid, with a new tail piece. I think that could be very cool mythological figure.

    What could be in a Mythology series of CMFs?

    I've visited that site, and others like it, many times. I've filled my cart several times, but never ended up bringing it to checkout because of my purist ways. They make such great stuff, though. I'd really love to see some of their ideas made officially by TLG. I might just have to bite the bullet one day and pick up some of their items. Anyways, back on topic: If it is a Satyr / Fawn, how do you think the legs would be done? Peg legs? Probably just a print.

    Lego themes that we would like to happen

    They could do something like a return to the Adventurers line, except this time going a little deeper into the folklore of the world.

    What could be in a Mythology series of CMFs?

    Someone had posted a custom Cthulhu Dimensions idea using that head and the Gargoyle's wings in green. I think that would make an awesome mythological figure! EDIT: It was Ragnar.
  17. I mentioned in the Mythology thread that I would love to see some sort of Draconic minifigure, and these wings are perfect for that. The Gargoyle horns wouldn't be bad for a Satyr, as it would likely be used as hair with the ears and horns attached. Looking at it that way would make it seem less like a bulky head. I am also thinking it might be the Goblin's headgear from Series 13, used for some sort of Elf or Pixie.

    What could be in a Mythology series of CMFs?

    Well it could certainly be the Satyr using the Gargoyles horns, as mentioned above. That would be great, and I'll agree it sounds like the most likely. A Harpy using the wings of the Gargoyle is a definite possibility. I'd prefer to see them used for some sort of Draconic figure, either a Dragon Suit Guy type, a Demonic type, or something like the Draconians from Dragonlance. It may be the Goblin's headgear though, which I believe has only been used on that minifigure and the Green Goblin from the Juniors line. I could see that being great for another Elf type, or maybe some sort of Pixie. It would be very fitting for a character inspired by Link from the Legend of Zelda, for instance . It could be the Wacky Witch's hat with hair, but I really doubt that. It could also be the King's crown. Again, I doubt it with the way the rumor sounds, but it's a possibility. I'm sticking with the prevailing theory of Satyr for now, though.

    LEGO Star Wars 2016 Pictures and Rumors

    I was thinking the same thing. I'll be very excited if that is the case. I'd love to have both versions, and getting Jawas with it is great news as well.
  20. This is coming along really nicely! Great work, I love the attention to detail.

    Lego themes that we would like to happen

    I'd love to see a KISS theme. It would have the full band, a stage and pyrotechnics, perhaps a cool tour bus. Maybe they'll bring them into Scooby Doo?

    What could be in a Mythology series of CMFs?

    In my original post on the matter, I said "Most mythology is religious in nature, so they should be somewhat differentiated from their religions," and I stick to that. These should always be inspired, not direct, like the Ocean King or the Battle Goddess. I think an Elephant Lord could be done in a similarly inspired way. There's already a great head mold in Chima. I just like the idea of other cultures having representation. I do understand the concern though, and thank you for raising it as it's an interesting and important discussion, but I think that same concern could have been applied to the previously mentioned minifigures. I will, however, try to stick to 'folklore' in future suggestions so to avoid any problems or offense. And while I'm trying to find good examples of non-European characters, I'd love to see Beowulf and Grendel inspired minifigures.

    What could be in a Mythology series of CMFs?

    Wow, I don't know how I missed that. It's too bad, because it's obviously a fictional location from pop culture and not at all an insult to Islam.

    6086-X Return to the Black Knight's Castle

    This is a really cool version of a classic set from my childhood. Lots of great details. Thanks for sharing! It really made me nostalgic!

    Roof Techniques

    Agreed, and I'm glad it has been revived as I would have been unlikely to have found it otherwise. There is a wealth of really interesting and beautiful techniques in here, and I'll definitely be trying my hand at a few of them.
