  1. Quick thought... I wasn't happy with the Black Widow figure from the Quinjet, has anyone tried using this head and hair on the black widow torso and legs? http://img4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140707151237/lego/fr/images/7/7e/April_O%27Neil-79116.png I think it would look really good, anyone who has both figures, could you post a picture? It would be much appreciated! :)
  2. Balotelli to Anfield! 0.o
  3. Lol still looking to make that trade? I have all of your wants except 2011 Batman... Want any of the following: Rockets Warbird, 2013 Spiderman, Spiderwoman, and Green Arrow.... Let me know if you're interested, thanks! P.S.- I have tons of old Star Wars stuff, if you're looking for anything inparticular, PM me as your inbox is full. :P
  4. Lucky for me, I have a friend who works in the walmart toy section! He lets me know usually when they have some really good deals. One day they remodeled the entire toy section and for some reason or another, in the very back next to the fishing supplies, they had a huge LEGO clearance section. Picked up six Uruk Hai armies for $8 a piece, helms deep for $60, three weathertops for $20, a forrest police staction for $25 and four Hulk Breakout sets for $18 each. On top of all that, my friend get's a 10% discount on total purchase. To say the least, I was very happy...
  5. As much as I'd like that to be true, we've never gotten a Marvel figure in a dvd release and I doubt it, that it would change now. On the other hand we've never gotten a sdcc set with an exclusive figure before either... Definately feel the same frustration though! If it makes you feel any better, as someone who was at Comic-Con, even if you would have been able to go, getting the sets were virtualy impossible! My friend waited since 5am to get into the exhibit hall and he still didn't get to the booth fast enough. The problem is that the floor opened at 9:30, and by 9:00 they were sold out. It's because anyone with a professional badge or disabled badge is let in early and by the time attendes get to the booth, it's too late. What annoyed me most was later in the day, random toy booths had all three sets marked up to $400, when they payed $120(still too much) for them a few hours earlier... :/ I really wanted Rockets Warbird, it was one of my top priorities, but some things aren't ment to be. Hope LEGO fixs this problem next year!
  6. Sounds like a splendid idea! My team name is Bournemouth Rovers... Don't mind the EPL though I follow Seria A and the Bundesliga more, however leage league prediction goes as: 1. Arsenal 2. Liverpool 3. Man City 4. Chelsea 5. Man United 6. Everton 7. Spurs
  7. Definately worth a watch, favorite Marvel movie to date!
  8. Love the figure and hope that we see it in a ship to home polybag at some point. I think we have a good chance of seeing it as it has special molding/printing. Like the two exclusive SDCC sets last year, neither of the minifigures were exclusive. The batmobile set this year, you can get both figures in the Junior Batcave set, I'm just hoping it's a matter of time. It's rather unfortunate, I was at comic-con and was not able to get any of the exclusive sets. A friend of mine camped out from 4am and was still unable to get any of the sets. You basically had to have a professional badge or be disabled to have a chance to get them. :/ Did manage to get the collector however! :P
  9. Regarding a post earlier... "This year, for the first time fans will have access to a free build area that allows them to build and take home their own brick based heroes." Anyone have any idea what this means, are these minifigures? Anyhow guys, this will be my last post for a couple days, unless I can find time to do so from the con! Hopefully I'll get some good pictures to share with you all! :) - Rob
  10. Interesting... The Last two years LEGO has released 4 Super Hero Figures only available at the con. This year however, 3 of the 4 figures realesed are all different themes? A lot are expecting to see Bard down the line. Has LEGO finally decided to do away with the con exclusives and stick to preview figures? That's grat news for pretty much everyone if true, excluding the scalpers. This makes collecting a lot easier, yet at the same time I enjoyed seeing the con exclusives to see what ideas LEGO is throwing around under the table....
  11. The Collector! Kind of an odd choice, but then again not a super popular character. Not as bad as it could have been, mixed emotions... :/
  12. Yes! I'd like to know as welll... I'll be attending the con again this year, but couldn't attend the preview night. :/ (Sisters Birthday) Anyhow knowing the schedule, if there is one could make the weekend a lot smoother!
  13. Sorry... :P Not trying to sound spoiled, I'd honestly rather they never had exclusives in the first place to be honest! I make a trip every summer to go to the con, and not for the exclusives... I'm lucky enough to live close by is all! I always stop by the LEGO booth to see the upcoming product, and what harm is it in entering the raffle? If I am lucky enough to get an exclusive great, if not I wont be disappointed. It's really unfair IMO that Europeans don't have a chance... Again sorry! :/
  14. Anyone know yet if there will be any exclusives at SDCC like the years past? I haven't heard anything yet, and by this time last year, I'm almost positive there were images released. I'm happy either way to be honest. I've been to the past three cons, and the first year I managed to get Green Lantern and Superman, 2012 I managed to get all four figures, and last year wasn't lucky enough to get any. I'm not complaining, I'm grateful for what I got, it's just it bothers me that I'll never be able to own figures such as Spiderwoman and Green Arrow. As I see spending $300+ on a single figure ridiculous! Anyhow if there are figures at the con great, if not great! :)
  15. I don't understand why anyone would lie about the theme not coming back.. :P if anything you'd expect it to be a letter saying it is coming back!
  16. Not to mention that the CMF figs seem to be made of cheaper quality than figs that come in sets! :/
  17. This is extremely difficult to decide! On one hand, I think we really need more Rohan soldiers considering the only Army builder with them, only came with one! Mount doom is such an iconic scene, and probably more likely, however I believe the minifigs would be pretty bland. If it is the last alliance Mount Doom, thats a different story! Not only would we get the iconic scene, but also important minifigures wiht Sauron, Gil-Galad, Elendil, Isildur, Last Alliance Elfs, Gondor Soldiers, and more Orcs, etc.! :) So overall, I have to say Mount Doom!
  18. Good point.. I'm still hopefull for a D2C Smaug set... I've been thinking that It was TLG's intentions to release him this wave, but based off where the movie cut off... maybe Warner Bros didn't allow them to make it yet, since he has not yet released his fury apon laketown? Just a thought. Many say TLG could have made a set with Smaug and the Dwarven forge, but the problem with that is that there would be no exclsuive figs, something LEGO would never do since that would leave a limited market. I of course would buy and ME sets no matter what, but from a kid who want's new exclusive figs in a $100 set perspective, I'd think that he would spend his money elsewhere. Anyone who's read the book and watched TDOS know the fate of Smaug and of Laketown, but since that particular scene will not be shown for another year, I think LEGO will be forced to wait till then. Anyhow, a Smaug set with a bigger section of Laketown if much more likely! Many people believe that Laketown has been completely covered, but I think there's still much more that could be added, not to mention Smaug. That would give us a good oppertuniy for more Laketown Soldiers plus possible exclusives like Braga, Alfrid and Bain! :)
  19. That's a thougt, though I usually just bricklink pieces I need for mocs!
  20. Someone brought up an interesting topic. If the LOTR line was to end, where would you invest your money into? I suppose after I stock up on as many LOTR army builders as possible, I would cut my LEGO budgit in half. And from then on, I would only buy various sets that interest me. Some Super Hero, and anything else that catches my eye... :P From then on, I would wait and hope that one day LEGO somehow aquires the Star Trek license(Highly Unlikely) so I can get my long desired Kirk and Spock minifigures! :)
  21. I know alot of people want new figs to be in any new sets, as do I, but I'm honestly expecting to get more members of the fellowship... We have plenty of frodo, gandalf, aragorn, legolas, and gimli, but I'm really hoping we got more sets with Sam, Boromir, Merry, and Pippin! We only have one sam fig, and he might just be the most important character of them all! I could see us getting another Boromir in an Amon Hen set, as well as Pippin or Merry! Or maybe Pippin and Merry in a treebeard set! I'm hopeing for variants of those four figs as well, Sam(Weary) in a cheaper Mount Doom set, Boromir(Captain) a little out of place but could be put in an Osgiliath Set... We might also see Pippin in Gondor Armor in a Minas Tirith set, and Merry in Rohan Armor in a Witch King Showdown set... Just hopeful Ideas! :P
  22. Yep it was Target! :) I can only hope...
  23. I know that everyone is expecting an exclusive figure with the game, but I was wondering if you guys think we will get an exclusive figure with the DVD release of TDOS? Similiar to the blue coated Bilbo we got with AUJ... Just a thought! :)
  24. Has anyone seen, or heard of this? Apparently it was given out to people who preorder DOS Tickets, and even though I preorded mine I never heard any news of any promotion like this! :P http://www.brickset....tail/?Set=ELF-1
