    LEGO Star Wars: The Padawan Menace TV Special

    Calm down, there isn't anything there impossible. look at the top of the new falcons cockpit corridor, those could be side mounted to make the rounded parts on the front side, pretty sure Lego make new parts when they have a need anyway.

    I think it could happen, the midi range has huge possibilities, you can only do so many remakes of the existing sets and as you see from the reaction over the net to the new falcon for instance, fans get a bit upset, I'd love a full midi fleet

    There did seem to be a lot of possibilities for future sets, and features for upgrades in it.

    REVIEW: 7052 UFO Abduction

    Name: 7052 UFO Abduction Theme: Alien Conquest Year: 2011 Pieces: 211 Minifigures: 3 Price: £25.99 When I picked up my first Alien Conquest set I was torn as to whether I should also get this set, in the end I didn't bother and just got the HQ, luckily for me fate conspired to bring me back to toys are us here is the review. (light was against me, so the photos aren't as well lit as the last ones) Description UFO Abduction The Alien Defence Unit soldier is preparing the city defences. But wait! An alien UFO is trying to abduct the farmer with its tractor beam and grabbing abduction function! Launch the flick missile before it’s too late and send the galactic human snatcher spinning home! Review Box front and back Minifigures The set comes with three minifigures, exactly the same moustached double sided head ADU trooper from the Earth Defence HQ set, a different alien and a really cool single sided head farmer. Building its just a single instruction booklet with this set, nothing too difficult and its built pretty quickly without and fiddly bits at all, rather odd placement of three green "Plate 1X2 W. 1 Knob" (as Lego describe them) in the cockpit could indicate something else was to be included in the set but was removed maybe?, nothing is shown on them on the box or in the instructions so it will remain a mystery The light is activated by pressing the green ball forward at the back of the cockpit as you can see in the pics. Underside of the UFO showing the rubber claw pieces, the light grey ends are rubber going to regular plastic as it goes dark grey. "abduction effect" is more impressive in the dark Ratings: Minifigs: 9/10 Minifigs are great, the farmer is the pick for me, he looks fantastic. the alien is good too, with different printing and a different head to the ones in the HQ set. the ADU trooper though is a direct copy of the HQ trooper, must have requested a transfer Parts: 8/10 Not a great pile of parts but some nice pieces all the same, including a light brick giving the "abduction effect" a really nice clear dome on the saucer and some nice rubbery fangs on the under side of the saucer, for picking up unsuspecting abductees. Design: 8/10 Its a classic saucer in the style of the 1950s B movies, the grille on the front is a little confusing though its a little too high in the sides for my liking but if it wasn't there'd be no room for the abductees, so its the price you pay, there is a nice "Area 51" sign on the front of the saucers stickers. Playability: 7/10 The playability is pretty good, although its not very swooshable but the "abduction effect" is pretty cool so it makes up for that. Price: 7/10 If the HQ seemed steep this one is a little steeper regards size Vs price, but it does have a light up brick (technological costs?) or maybe theres a worldwide plastic shortage going on Overall: 39/50 Nice but no classic. Hi Res pics are here
  17. Does anyone know of the official release date here in the UK? I'm desperate.
  18. Blue bags for series five, think I'd like all of these, which is a first for the minifigures.

    The Eurobricks Reviewers Academy

    Hello I'm Dave from the UK, recently turned 7. 37 that is. I have a great many sets going back as far as the early 80s I think, if not earlier and an ever growing collection of new ones. I have a decent camera and I've put a few reviews on here in the Sci-Fi forum with the pictures. I have plenty of time and I'd love to be able to make better reviews and help the the people here and forum.

    Are POTC sets too expensive?

    I've always loved the pirates theme and having missed out on the pirate ships I made sure I got one once I had money of my own seeing that Lego had Pirates Of The Caribbean licence I was really looking forward to the sets, but now I've seen the sets and more importantly the prices I'm less than happy, money isn't really a problem but these sets feel very much like a massive rip off, skipped them all so far and bought the whole Alien Conquest theme instead.

    Review: 7065 Alien Mothership

    I know what you mean, the camera and a camera man should have been in the set, not a huge addition but it would have rounded the set off perfectly, shame, maybe next series

    2011 Alien Conquest

    Yeah, it really should have been a fresh set of figures, rather than a reissue of ones already in the current range.
