i planned to post this in the Minifig Customization Category, but i thought i would get more response in this part of the forum. While trying to upgrade up on my collection of minifgure hairpieces and found many interesting hairpieces from the friends minidolls. Searching the Web didnt give me the right results... After figuring recently that they are sometimes to bulky/big for normal minfigures i tried some combinations in LDD but still undicided about some of them. So what i am looking for are pictures of these down below in particular (and other friends-) hairpieces on "regular" minifigures. It would also be good to have a regular minfigure with longish hair standing next to them for comparison. thx in advance Minifig, Hair Friends Long with Curls at Ends http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?P=18842 Minifig, Hair Friends Long with Curls http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?P=93352 Minifig, Hair Friends Long Wavy http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?P=92256 Minifig, Hair Friends Short, Bob Cut http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?P=92259

thank you very much guys - thats exactly what i was looking for especially the hair on nya looks much better than the original! i only have 2 friend hairpieces yet and one really looks a bit off on regular minfigures, which is this one: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=92255

http://www.brickbuildr.com/view/pab/side/off/122/ been updatet a month ago - should be almost what they got in store be sure to update the site after visiting the store

as i only have 2 friends mini-dolls and 0 cmf princesses i cant try it myself. but what helps me when trying to separate a stuck head/headgear-combination is the "tissue trick": dismantle an ordinary tissue into its layers - put one layer on top of the head-connecter of a random torso (friends in your case) and put the head on the torso. this trick will give you much better clutch power and maybe you will be able to wiggle the headgear off the head again. good luck

Meet the Crew of the Carnivore - a ship to flunk the 7 known solar systems on the hunt for treasures (and the next bloody gluttony) All the crew members are genetically modified. A wide range from a parrot to a saber-cat helped to improve their DNA and their abilities. Cpt. Leo Lionheart The Captain himself chose a lion to give him the confidence and leadership of a lion to guide his party through the depths of the universe. Petty Officer Ben Batbite To give him the overview in battle and to coordinate his fighters in a space-fight, Ben chose the Bat to alter his DNA-sequence Sniper Salem Saber-cat Salem managed to proof his creativity in picking his animal of choice - he extracted blood from a mosquito found in an amber, only to discover Saber-cat dna. He gained a massive improve in reactivity which made him the perfect match for the sniper-position. Chef Ceno Piggy Like most of the members of the Carnivore, Ceno likes fresh meat - although he refuses to eat space-pig. Still somebody has to do the cooking! Pvt. Polly Parrot Polly is the perfect mechanic for the Carnivore - he knows all the anatomic peculiarities of the ship. He prefers crackers of meat - but the Carnivore rarely robs a Cracker-delivery ship. Doublehanded Wolf Walter Walter could spice up his ability to double-wield his guns with the ferocity of a lone wolf - greatly improving his kill count when it matters. thx to Bob de Quatre for hosting this Contest - its always great to have a minfigure only category =) i really thought about adding a brickbuilt-robot to the crew but couldn't get myself into it.

have you missed out on this head? its from storm of the marvel superheros line

i did i nice job arranging ur crewmembers. i like how u mostly stick to white/purple/red color scheme! my favorite figure has to be vlad

i got that combo rolling pretty fast after getting the cmf piggy a while ago. the head works with the unicorn mascot headgear aswell , though a space pirate unicorn didnt go well with the rest of the crew.

thx for the nice comments, guys. the head is from atlantis but from the hammerhead: http://www.bricklink...em.asp?M=atl017 i have to agree the pants for Walter are not perfect - the crew had some lastminute memberchanges maybe im posting some pictures of the dismissed crewmembers aswell.

yeah technically the _legs_ are red but can be considered "flesh legs" (light flesh to be precise ) because the printing is covering the "legs" of the minifigures - they are red for 1 reason: Lego still doesn't like to print the "boot"-part as we know =) - so printing the "leg"-part in a light flesh color works aswell. you could maybe try the handpiece from azog if u have him =) http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?P=bb611

your elektra looks almost perfect! there are at least some minifigures i know with partly flesh legs: http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?M=hp068 red "pants" flesh legs http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?M=sh157 skirt with flesh legs and boots http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?M=sh004 stars might be not fitting elektra at all =D http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?M=sw485 slave leia outfit wont be fitting either http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?M=sw504 i guess i would either try viktor krums legs or supergirl's - or just use plain red legs

i was really happy to read about this contest in dezember and started to built my series right away. after christmas i was finally able to built my last and missing figure (watermagicus) in january i was able to do some minor changes to 3 of these guys and finally... just yesterday i finally built a lager lighttent/softbox to finally take the pictures =) Mitgardia Pikeman (Peter) mostly only wearing light armor the Mitgardian Pikeman likes to travel by boat - mainly cause he doesn't sink like stones (like some of the Avalonians would if the fall into the sea) Franco-mitgardian Swordsman (Christo) born in Avalonia he finally gets the chance to fight for the right cause and accept his Mitgardian heritage. Hammer&Lightning Mage not only can the Blacksmiths of Mitgardia forge the best Weapons - some are even able to control thunder and lightning. Fisherwoman because most Mitgardia's men tend to not have the patience to go fishing their women have to do this job. Nocturnus Voodoopriest drawning powers by sacrificing animals he can use the second sight to reveal the plans of Nocturnus enemies - Drow Assasine hiding in the darkness he is sent to silently kill the enemy leaders - but doesn't fear the open battle if exposed. Orcish arbalest because of the lack of ranged soldiers Nocturnus has to rely on the Orcish mercenary soldiers within their ranks. Kaliphlin Sandthief dont let the name fool you - he doesn't steal sand (would be kinda pointless in the dessert). This guy is a rarely seen thief hiding under the sands of Kaliphlin to rob a caravan at night or even stealth into cities by hiding in wanderingdunes. Watermagicus this wizardry mastermind is able to find the smallest amount of water in the desert and pull it to surface by will power (or maybe empowered by his golden staff). You should at least have one of these guys in your party if you don't wanna starve crossing some of the bigger uninhibited zones of Kaliphlin. Risen Scarablord long dead these undead ramble to the ruins of ancient pyramids. He and his fellowship are the main reason why u would not want to camp near abandoned structures in the dessert. Bone-Clairvoyant as u can tell by his name, the bone-clairvoyant reads the future in bones of animals and sometimes even slain enemies. Avalonia Herbalist picking flowers and mushrooms in the forest she knows everything about curing diseases and brewing potions. Soldier of Fortune his shield is your shield - his sword is your sword ... if you pay him! Golden Ranger scouting the forests he is the first to know about foreign hazards invading Avalonia. Werewolf Berserk infected with the werewolf-virus he developed supernatural powers and is not excelled in ferocity and brutality within his melee fighting skills

thanks for the kind words guys. i really had a blast building these and its nice to hear you like em too its from professor sprout from the harry potter line http://www.bricklink...tem.asp?M=hp131 i just changed the arms for reddish brown ones i feel a bit flattered to read this from you, as i pull much inspiration from your figbarfs - in the end your builds are what really got me into purist minfigure customization i guess the scarablord is the oldest minfigure of the batch as far as torso/leg combination goes ^^ i knew it would come out as some sort of zombie - the headgear just came off another figure i redesigned. (League of Legends: Nasus that is - there is a big horde of minifgures waiting to be photographed again in the bigger/better light-tent )

finally my entry:

This is Chirsto - ready to fight for Mitgardia. Although born in Avalonia he is now ready to follow the Mitgardian gods of war.

http://www.canon.co....rShot_A3400_IS/ according to the informatioin on your flickr, this is the camera you are using =) according to the website you got different white balance options - try to find the right for your bulbs (probably you have to go to the menu to adjust the wb) building a light tent isnt very expensive - i built mine using the explanation in a BrickJournal article, which can be previewed here: (dont forget to also check page 13 aswell) http://issuu.com/two...nal25preview/14

i guess the other sets will follow in january? germany (or europe) is late on licensed sets who arent starwars this will be 2 or even 3 sets i will buy for minifigures after not buying any sets for over half a year

are there any websites about lego lol heroes besides that? havent seen any, yet though i put together quite some league characters, but i still have to photograph all of them and post em =) i got 37 right now - all are purist, some are based on certain skin (of that champion)

ah yeah werewolf was monster hunters for sure =) but also from CMF: Yeti: i left out on beorn cause its only the hair/head from atlantis: Shark

besides the other ewok/wookie variants, i know these: Watto Atlantis Barracuda and featuring only halfchest / shoulders: Azog CMF Minotaur Rocket Raccoon CMF Werewolf ...and i am not sure where Max Rebo fits in =)

the barbarians look pretty damn angry - i like! are the shields custom parts or where the printed dish with the hole come from? i really like these armies aswell they remind me of a 90's tabletop with hexagonal bases i used to play (cant figure out the name anymore) it wasnt a collecting-type game like warhammer - just a big box with lots of miniatures with orcs vs humans ... perhaps anybody knows the name?

when looking at this the first time, i didnt quite get, what was going on with these stairs =D really like the amount of detail and moreover the floor / wall texture !

first one is kit fisto's torso http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=973pb416c01 cant tell the second one for sure because of the reflection http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?M=sw551 maybe? older han solo torso from one of these 5 figures: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?M=sw234 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?M=sw137 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?M=sw135 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?M=sw152 http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?M=sw162

i am using the same hairpiece for magnete right now =) good idea with the claws - guess these would work as bone claws I think its this piece : http://www.bricklink...&colorID=3&in=A

great job with these figures oky! they remind me of the dc-crossover series, where the superheroes would swap apperiance/forces or even combine both (aka spider-boy, JLX or super soldier) might try some combination myself ^^ yeah, i agree - raphys personality fits hulk best ^^ leonadro as the leader - donatello being the technical brain of the group - and mikey as the "fun" guy - raphael as the one always eager to fight
