  1. Thank you both :-$ .

    To simonwillems: I know it would look even more impressive, made out of the actual plastic, but for now I do not have the money or the space where to display it or even store the pieces... |-/ .

    Maybe in sometime... 8-|

  2. Hi, I've lately completed my first LDD model of a famous monument. Being Italian, I chose the 'Duomo di Milano' *wub* (maybe I'll go for the Colosseum next 8-| ).

    Here are some pics:

    As you can see, it can be opened and has some internal details (from a plan I found on the net).

    It's 1737 pieces, most of them white 2x2x1 bricks.

    I tryed to make it as similar as possible *sweet* :

    I'd like to know what you think of it :'-) .

    Now a little advertising >:-) : you can find it on TLG site in Factory Gallery, Famous Places. If you like it, I'd be very pleased to know you got it. [i do not get anything else from this ;-) ].

  3. If it was DT vd Ep2 Anakin, I'd have said DT wins.

    This is on a totally different level. Anakin now has the ability, control, experience he lacked before, so he can confront DT equally. In addition he is more rapid (he is younger, after all) and his rage has grown as well, and DT trying to control him with his speech only makes him the angrier. So it is Anakin wins the fight, the light-side loses a bit of its influence on him ( *vader* ).

  4. Hello,

    I've recently found a Sept-Dec 2007 Italian LEGO Catalog:

    1.jpg

    When I came to the Exo-Force pages, I saw this:

    2.jpg

    They call Hitomi a boy (red circles), even if they created her a female pilot.

    An then this:

    3.jpg

    I'll translate the text in the red circle: "The Sentai golden tower is a Japanise temple full of functions, which can always count on the battle machine 'Sonic Raven' ".

    Yes I say, if they want to be distroyed any moment, they can always count on an enemy battle machine to do that... :-|

    This is our madness *wacko* ! I'd like to know if in other Countries too you have such good free humor sketches in your LEGO catalogs X-D.

    See you

  5. Hello everybody,

    some of you may have already met me in some topics or contests... I'm not a so new member of EB, but for some reason I never found the time or patience to sit down and write something in this topic :-|.

    I'm from Italy and I have many interest in LEGO: last year I collected almost only Exo-Force, now I'm concentrating on some City veichles and I'm back to StarWars *vader* .

    Another big interest I have is building vignettes *wub* (or trying to... :-P ).

    See my BS here :-$ : My Gallery

    By the way, on the left you can see my new sigfig 8-

    Hello,

    here is my entry for the Engines category:

    It's a truck inspired to the Bedfored - 1939 you see on the right (a model from a model :-P )

    firetruck_1.jpg

    firetruck_2.jpg

    Sorry for the not-so-good quality of the pics: it's a very old MOC (about 10 years ago) and I had to scan the photos.

    If I've time, I'll try to build something new for one of the other categories later on.

    See you.

  7. Hi LuxorV!

    Do you really need the whole set or just the pieces for the Darkred Starfighter. The rest of the stuff is pretty cheap!

    Good luck On

    Hi copmike,

    I know it is ObiWan's DarkRed Starfighter that makes this set so rare... The other stuff is quite common and, as you say, cheap.

    But I'd like to have the entire set (box, instructions, that 'complete set' aura...) X-D .

    Certenly, I'll consider your advice in the case the other way is impossible |-/ .

    Thank you.

  8. Hello,

    I'm looking (a little bit late, I guess... 8-| ) for StarWars set 7283 - Ultimate Space Battle

    7283%20Ultimate%20Space%20Battle.jpg

    Does anybody know where I can find one (possibly at less than $ 100)?

    I have already searched it on BL, but prices are terrifying :-X

    Thank you for any bit of information.

  9. Hello,

    this is my entry: "Raptor in the kitchen".

    The scene is from the JP book (different form the movie), when Tim sets a trail of frized steacks to guide the raptor in the big refrigerator.

    Here is a view of the raptor an the steacks
