    X wing MOD/MOC

    Wow, your idea for the nose is looking really good! Can't wait to see the rest of it. IMO, most System-scale Lego Star Wars sets of vehicles under 100 ft in length are pretty in-scale. Going by my scale (1 stud : 1 ft), Lego scale is 1:38, and I know that makes the average minifig only 5 ft tall in their own scale, but that doesn't matter to me much, as everything else works out and it makes it easier to accurately size minifig-scale creations. That puts the most recent System-scale X-wing at 41 ft long, which is spot-on for the "real" T-65 X-wing. However, I also have similar minor problems with the shaping, turning mechanism (as GuyDudeMan27 said), and other areas that you've mentioned, but I do believe that is the best Lego could do in 2012 while staying within (2012-era) legal building techniques and making it durable enough for kids to play with, so it doesn't bother me TOO much... but I still feel a little unsastified looking at it and holding it in the hand, moreso than that same year's TIE Fighter and Y-wing. I also can't wait for the TFA TIE Fighter and X-wing, and I agree that the canopy piece on the X-wing is GLORIOUS.

    Custom The Last Airbender Minifigs

    Great minifigs. The movie sucked SO HARD, though he is going to make two more, for the other two seasons, or "books" of the show. Anyone Remember in the beginning of the movie, where it said, "Book 1: Water"? The other two are gonna be Book 2: Earth (with Toph in it) and Book 3: Fire.

    Review: 7164 Preston Stormer

    Nice review. I got Mark Surge recently, and I got to say, he's a pretty cool little guy. Actually, the story is still going on online. -Jed

    REVIEW: 5984 - Lunar Limo

    Great review! I don't think anyone else has had problems with the helmet besides you. I've always been able to put mine on my minifig's head. Maybe your minifig's helmet is just mis-molded. -Jed

    Review: Shark's Crystal Cave

    My favorite themes are City, Space, and Divers, and this is one of the best sub-themes of the latter. Nice set, great review. -Jed

    Review: 10129 UCS Snowspeeder

    Nice review, Rufus! I love your reviews. At that part where you said the cannon looks like a U-boat deck cannon, I thought it looked like a Higgins boat landing craft gun, and I also thought the thing looked like a Higgins boat. -Jed

    REVIEW: Prince of Persia 7572 Quest Against Time

    Nice review! Loving that gate. Are those new BURP's I see? They don't look very ugly compared to the old ones. I'd even call them just BRP's. -Jed

    After the storm

    Great MOC! Really awesome. I love the guys falling into the water, the guys pouring the wine, and the "amateurish woodcutter." -Jed

    Review: 30061 Attack Wagon

    That's one of the first reviews of a set that hasn't come out yet I've seen. The only other one is CopMike's review of the Collectible Minifig Astronaut. -Jed

    That's a pretty cool set! The review's not bad, either.

    I'm new to Eurobricks. I have been a guest of this site for a while, and I decided to become a member. I've been a fan of Lego for my whole life. I'm in to Space and all it's subthemes. I probably won't make that many topics, and if I do, it'll just be reviews. No MOCs, cause I suck at them. Well, hi. -Jed
