Hmmm Inteeeresting... You have many MegaBloks stuff or just dabbling? I think MB is ok, I mean if they were orginial block toy we all had I reckon this would be a MB forum and we'd all be dissing LEGO.

Harry Potter or Harry Pothead fan?

Who do you support, Melbourne Knights? 8-

This argument is serious now. You know, virtually none of the stadia used in Germany had race tracks. The reason was because the Germans had the benefit of hosting the tournament following USA'94 and Italia '90. The disaster of Italia '90 (and lesser extent USA94) was that all the redeveloped stadia (69,000 delle Alpi, 82,000 Olimpico, 55,000 San Nicola, 80,000 San Paolo etc) had athletic tracks built because they are not owned by the football clubs, but rather they are owned and funded by the city councils using taxpayers money (and therefore have to cater for everyone). Now in hindsight these are considered crap, there is no athmosphere (even if you are there, or watching on tv). As a result the attendences are dwindling which is a disaster for football in Italy. For some, there are plans to demolish them and make new stands close to the pitch, a good idea, but a huge waste of money originally. (Delle Alpi) Germany and France learnt these lessons from Italy's cock-up and rebuilt stadia after thinking about what's best for football and not what is best for skinny idiots running around in ovals. FIFA encourage this approach.

Some impressive stadia for sure but maybe in some cases the pitch sizes would be too big thus making the crowd far from the action, creating a crap athmosphere? I dont think AUS would be good for hosting the world cup on a fans point of view howver. It's a nice place sure but too far from the nations who love football and I suspect most games would be only half full. Too expensive to get to also however the cheap wine is a positive.

Surely it only takes a second to change back to the one used before Christmas?

DIE BIONICLE DIE! *n*

Thanks Holodoc :-) Cool pic. No these red ones are the best!

Although I am not a fan of wide cars, this is good and it is nice to see a MOC made from the official sets. The use of the engine maintenace crane is great btw, suits it perfectly. I hope you post more City MOCs in future!

Just as well those bloody cannot-spell-to-save-their-lives Evangelipublicans live so far away.

This is amazing. Well done. How long it take to do this and when you get the idea? You use the light sensors to recognise the different coins?? You do electronics? I have made minifigure-scale manual vending machines for my legomen which are cute but suck :) Nice to see a real machine!

Yea but may I point out that this is a Lego ship made in the 2000s ;) About the cannons, I too think they are just a bit too close together. Still looks cool though. Yeah.... sliiiiigghhttlly :-D Pity the sails aren't just plain white/cream colour :(

Never minding the horrible sporty look of this thing, horrible windows etc, but the wheels! my god! :-X :-X :-X :-X Worst set EVER (Even including the hovercrap)

European Union.

Now, now, don't be harsh. :-D *y*

You must be the first person I know who likes shopping trolleys :-D

Great review, especially the crap bits :-D :-D :-D Wow that hull piece really does suck. So too does that fire truck though.

Am I the only one who thinks this looks like a wedding cake or a giant boot?

Yes :-) they are 4 good bands *y*

I listen to these all the time :-) Anyone like similar? Wanna swap tracks?? ;-) Kaiser Chiefs Air The Arctic Monkeys Franz Ferdinand Mogwai The Arcade Fire The Pixies The best The Cure Death Cab for Cutie Echo & The Bunnymen The Flaming Lips Guns n' Roses Hard-Fi Interpol The Killers The Kings of Leon The Kooks The Kinks Muse Pavement Radiohead The Stone Roses The Strokes The Zutons

I think you should be banned.

This is my fav -> Beautiful hat *sweet*

Whats the petrol/km of this thing? I don't think the Green Party will be to enamored :-D

These are what I think so too. Not sure if you mentioned above , but I think there should be no baseplates that aren't flat. Ramps should be made using boards, raised castles should be made on foundation of bricks and boards. Recently the crests used by the armies look very childish. The old Castle Lion/ Draco (Black falcon) crests were simply more realistic IMO. The sets of new Castles should be bigger and have more basic bricks, not all this fancy crap that makes them look bigger than they really are. Also, it would be good if the sets were connectable, i.e. you could connect the castle walls and sets together to make bigger castles, like the sets of the 1980s. Similarly if you could open them out...
