Stauder

The USMC has it's budget cut. Now all they can do is throw whatever they find.

No, I am Stauder. You are who exactly? Stauder.

Walter > Achmed Pwned.

Only people who have the account number of my swiss bank account get interviewed. Also Whitefang, when Hinckley finds out you stole his dress, more than your reputation will be at risk Stauder. PS - Who can find the Sesame Street reference?

*NOTE* This is by no means a serious review. But for the sake of Santa over there, I'll put in the stats. ~Stauder Name: Rebel Patrol Theme: Star Wars Subtheme: Episode IV-VI Year released: 2008 Pieces: 82 Figures: 4 Interesting Part: Rebel Helmet EB News Rating: Good Set. Welcome to another exciting episode of EB News Reviews! I'm your host, ImperialShadows and I disavow all responsibility for the content seen herein. This is my fellow conspirator and the one who's taking the blame if it all goes to hell, Staudie! He puts the ew in review, you know. WhiteFang is away on assignment this evening (he ran like a little girl from this one, not that I blame him). Before we begin the program, I do feel obligated to explain a few things. One, Staudie is crazy. He just is. Second, EB News Reviews isn't a traditional News program, or a traditional Review program, or a traditional anything else. It's sort of like "This is Spinal Tap", without the music. So, without further delay, crank it up to 11 and welcome Staudie, here to present our special 'guest' for the evening... 7668 Rebel Patrol! Today we will be reviewing the 7668 Rebel Patrol. Oh no, they've let him drive! He's only 12, people! I AM NOT 12! He admits he isn't even 12 yet!!! Not funny. I laughed. Me too. Who said that? The guy behind you. Which one? I dunno, they all look the same to me. Announcer: This baby can do Warp 2, no-problemo. No no no! This is Star Wars. Not Star Trek! *Half of the audience boos* *Boooo!* It doesn't work that way. They boo at you, you can't boo at them. He does it all the time. Who? You know! He-who-shall-not-be-named! Vol-de-Hinck? Heh heh. See what I did there? It was funny. *The other half of the audience boos* Fine. As far as he goes, he also dresses like a turkey and runs around yelling gobble gobble. Now get back to the review before he shows up. Right! Here we can see the DSS (dreaded sticker sheet, for you slow people), compared to a 6x2 plate. Here we can see the rebel helmet, a piece unique to this set, compared to a Fire helmet, Phase II Clone helmet and Stormie helmet. Quite big... I can imagine it being used as a cyclist's helmet in some Tour De France MOC... The speeder comes with a crew of four. Unfortunately the driver has to be telepathic to control this craft as there is no control panel. For this evenings program, the driver is telepathetic! Mr. Shadows, sir! What are you doing? I'm just stowing some junk in the trunk! There is no trunk. Quit interrupting, I just need to push harder! This is a close up of the helmets, the visor piece is removable, and on the left side (pictured) there is what I expect is a communicator. Here we see possible uses for the heads, as well as a comparison to a storm trooper. One of these things is not like the other, one of these things doesn't belong! (Shadows is proud of the 5 of you who got this joke, seriously) The rear turret is removable, so it can be "deployed" to provide fire support... Which is code for "he broke it." And the turret construction. Hollow inside, just like his head. Deployed, next to the speeder. The speeder looks like it could haul some cargo where the turret was attached. You could use it to clean out your office. I don't even have an office. No, but if you did and then we fired you, this would be perfect! Yeah! NO! WAIT! Overall, I think it is a nice battle-pack. 4 unique figs, a nice selection of parts and relatively low price. I mean, they could have only included the figs in some $200 set... Yeah, and it beat the heck out of that Imperial Crapship they put the stormies in..." After the show, our heroes meet again during weekend duty in the Rebel Reserve. Staudie, that you? It must be, I am not getting any intelligent life readings over there. Yeah, hey Shadows, long time no see. Looks like they actually put you in command of a little force of your own. Congrats, kid! Yeah, I got my own speeder and squad! Who's the man now, huh? And what have you been doing? Oh, not much, they gave me this little thing and a couple of battalions. *Signal Fades*

Heh, was just thinking that I haven't seen a Joe Vig in a looooong time. Good for a giggle :D and nice hull build. Stauder.

Great job as always Hinck. I agree with IS that the special effects budget is too big, not that it's a bad thing. I did'nt see the frog in the blender thing coming tough... What is green, red and goes at 200km/h? Hinckley in a blender. Stauder.

How can you take apart what is glued together? Probably not worth the effort. Still, they could have aucioned it off or something... Stauder

Thanks. And nope, me and Shadows are kidnapping people and highjacking rebel patrol craft as we speak. EDIT - Sucess! <- Click ME! Stauder.

Hello me hearty. Welcome to EuroBricks! Hope ye be havin' a good time, just watch out for the Blue Walrus... Arrr.. Some scallywags say he's been lootin n' pootin the high seas recently... Stauder.

Very nice Magna Guards. They seem very flexible, which could equal a very cool vig. Regarding that you mentioned the legs are short - Maybe shorten the arms abit? KUTGW. Stauder.

Exams are yet to come... The last is on 20th Feb... But in my free time I've been experimenting with new backdrops... So hopefully, you will see some better quality images and backdrops... Stauder.

Happy New Year's 2009 Ladies and Gents. I have a ton of exams in the next 4-5 months so don't expect me to be on. But every now and again when I have time, I'll post something. Stauder.

The sad part is I do a better Shadows than he does Stauder.

This offer intregues me. The toaster accepts your offer! Stauder.

Review Of 0879 sgt sinky Box is rather dull. No pictures at all. Box also contains a potted plant, nice touch but not very useful. A total of 5 pcs are included. Brain bought separatly Stauder.

By slowly I meant slowly but surley. You are the only one who is doing anything at the moment, so don't worry. Stauder.

I don't know. I am busy, Shadow's is missing, WhiteFang is slowly working at reviewing sets, and the cardinal has been missing for weeks... Stauder.

I do not belive it was. The decals are tough. If you want to by one, you can always email Kaminoan. PM me if you want his email. Stauder.

Because I am the one who does the interviews. And I am rather busy with school... Speakin of, better get back to that 1000 word essay... Stauder.

Aw Crud! Missed this! Happy Birthday you Ego Tycoon ! Hope you had a good one. Stauder.

First Row. Center. The red one. Gold visor may be replaced with black. Head seen in avvie. Strudle.

Great review. I used to have some of these lying around... Too bad I was clumsy all those years ago.... I wonder if TLC will start producing this kind of... Battle Pack? Stauder.

Trying to kill you as a matter of fact! Why must you move about so much in your sleep? These granades aren't that accurate! Stauder.
