    Ziro the Hutt? Are you serious? That would be a minifig-sized abomination. TK

    LEGO don't do direct conversions on prices... sets are always cheaper in America. And as NTF said, the source always has high prices... TK

    Posted mine rather late... and given an excuse for my crappy photos (the real excuse is that I didn't have time to take decent ones ). TK

Oh, and let's not forget the horrifically grainy photos... (purposefully done for extra spookiness and low-budget horror movie style effect ) TK

    Am I the only one who wants a dark blue saber blade? Everyone else just seems to be obsessed with the hilts (which, by the by, should be available in black as well - there's only one black one in the Indy chase set). TK

    The Police Get Tough

    Nice MOCs overall, but the levers on the police car look like antenna And the piece on the front of the fire truck that juts out seems out of place. Other than that though, good work! TK

    Show us or tell us about your Album collection?

    We have around 80-90 albums altogether, from artists such as: Metallica Guns n Roses Iron Maiden Megadeth Weezer Dropkick Murphys Dragonforce and many more. The most recent album we bought was Death Magnetic, special edition by Metallica. Brilliant album and return to form after the mediocre St. Anger. TK

    Your favorite lightsaber duel!

    Obi-Wan vs. Vader I on Mustafar. Perfect music and choreography for the saber fight itself. Very moody as well with great visual effects and lighting. TK

    Star Wars: The Force Unleashed

    That's exactly what I'm saying It's crashed twice though; the first time the screen froze but it still allowed me to pause/save/restart checkpoint, the second time everything crashed and I had to switch off the console from the back. Also lagged quite a bit earlier, but pausing it for a few seconds fixed that. Otherwise there's been no problems other than a few sound errors where the sound hasn't quite matched the image in the in-game scenes (such as a guard departing a shuttle). Nothing to affect the gameplay itself, though. Overall it's an excellent game, with a story (so far) that's three times the plot of the prequel trilogy - it leaves you guessing at every turn and is really unpredictable; you don't know what's coming next! The graphics are beautiful as well; in the cut-scenes they're almost - and very nearly - film quality. The expression on the character's faces is remarkable. Based on what I've played so far, the game gets a 9 from me - losing a point due to the technical bugs and objects/bodies/lightsaber damage fading. Plus, there's no dismemberment. However, that might raise to 10 once I see the ending TK

    Star Wars: The Force Unleashed

    Odd; the game lets me restart from the last time it saved (i.e. mid-level) when I quit/die. This is on PS3, are you on Wii? TK

    Star Wars: The Force Unleashed

    Hopefully picking this up at lunchtime tomorrow to play it straight after work Looking forward to it, it does indeed look amazing. By the way, I sold Brawl for this. No, it's not sacrilege. TK

    Your Favorite Band

    "SUICIDE, I've already died, you're just the funeral I've been waiting for - CYANide," (Metallica - Cyanide) So, yeah, Metallica are my favourite band. Iron Maiden and Guns N Roses come in second. Which reminds me, Death Magnetic (Metallica's new album) is out Friday. TK
  20. Ugh... not liking it at all from these pics, but then again these are bad quality, prelim stuff. I'll wait until better pics come along. TK

    In the pic of the three minifigures on the Shuttle Mace Windu is the non-LULS ROTS version. That'll bring the price down a bit... maybe I should sell mine soon TK

    Does anyone else...

    I wasn't referring to you more mental age than physical age, if you catch my drift. Really? I thought Golden C-3POs were around $100, if not more... TK
  23. A thought... if the PM are indeed similar to RR, perhaps they will also utilise the mine carts and tracks seen in sets such as Dwarves' Mine (and hopefully later to be seen in a Temple of Doom set ;-)). TK

    Does anyone else...

    Concentrating on one member's no good either, this site's full of kids these days... And on topic, Non-LUL is actually $40 lowest price on BL, not $50: http://www.bricklink.com/search.asp?itemID=61737 I have him, he's cool. Wrists are a tad slack on mine though. Still, awesome colour blade. As for LULS, as I may have said already in this thread (can't remember that far back), I think they're decent enough apart from the head spinning and the terrible aesthetics of where the lightsaber/hand meets. Oh, and I wouldn't want LULS figs if a normal version of said LULS version did not exist as well. Sense that make did. Well said TK

    Star Wars: The Force Unleashed

    I played on the two hardest difficulties. The TIE bit is when Juno tells you that the Empire has set a TIE squadron to patrol the area. There's a bit of steel framework on the walkways you can bend, and the two TIE Fighters were not simultaneously but rather in rapid succession TK
