We should combine forces and plunder all the minifigs we can

Bless our corrupt U.S. big business owners and politicians!

I suggest you don't make the mech a Steelix, I tried making just his head to scale with minifigs and it was gonna cost like $70 alone! I say make a Wobbuffet mech (good luck finding light blue legos though xD), who doesn't love that blue blob! Wobba!

See, I don't even consider it blind packaging when there are very easy-to-use charts around to get the figs you want. The barcodes were annoying but the bumps are very easy to see. And what exactly is a "filler" minifig? They're all useful! I may not like all of them but they all have a unique purpose.

Thank you! That helped tremendously to get them listed for sale, I appreciate it!

I'm not sure what the problem is with people who don't want so many figures in each series. They could have 50 in each series and I'd love it. It's not like I'm gonna be buying all of them, I not gonna like all of them anyway. Why would I buy a Pop Star when I don't like the figure? Only because it's in the series? Lol, that's crazy.

I'm guessing they're Bionicle things, they're made of rubbery plastic, very flexible. Any idea what they are?

Here's a quick one, a revamp of LuxorV's Jill Valentine: I also have the .PSD file, with the colors in separate layers so you can edit them all you want.

I love the Mullet on Rabastan xD

That's an awesome lookin' soldier! I'm still a little confused as to why people don't just go to Kinkos and have them print out entire sheets of high quality decals. Is it horribly expensive to print a page or what?

Hello Leggorinos! Okay, browsing through the gallery of minifig decals, I can't help but notice that many of the decals are pixelated or fuzzy. Are most of you guys using MS Paint to make them? No offense meant, I love a lot of the ones you guys have posted but don't see how some of them would make good-quality prints in their current state (Do they look great once you shrink and print them? Why not offer a pre-shrunk pre-sized version as well?) I've gotten decent at using the pen tool in photoshop (I've been inking drawings) so I was wondering if it would be against the rules to redo some of the decals to be less jagged/fuzzy. I would ask the original creators for permission of course. If you have a design you want to make into a decal, I'll give it a shot. And I mean only if you have an actual drawn design that's ready to be inked. For example, don't just post a picture of a pirate, instead simplify the design first and make a sketch, then post it and I'll get to work. I'm not good enough to come up with my own designs, but can easily ink yours.

Whoa, what head is that? That totally looks like Stallone

Come on guys, it's just a bunch of CDs, he doesn't need a complex hyperdimensional-defying design xD Build a shape that holds the CDs you want (looks like you're done! good job) then glue all those pieces together. I say that as someone who lives in the U.S. that can get a bunch of those common bricks for a low price, I don't know how expensive LEGOs are in Europe so this could be an expensive investment. (I say do it, it looks cool) (Edit: Oh, a Speaker stand, tell you what, I'll make something like what you built and put my speaker on it, then report what happens after a week.)

It's just tomfoolery. If I were a street-vendor selling only watermelons and a guy across the street decides to start selling oranges, I'm not gonna get all pissy because he's selling oranges. He's selling a product that I don't carry and don't intend to carry at any time, so why am I gonna be upset about that? He's not maliciously cutting into my business, he doesn't even sell the same thing I am. All it does is give people more options for fruit to buy. Hasbro is like "THEY'RE SELLING MELONS OVER THERE! WE HAVE TO STOP THEIR MADNESS! ORANGES ARE THE ONE TRUE FRUIT!" Going by the definition of "action figure" though, I guess they'd HAVE to make a stink about it so LEGO doesn't keep pushing the limits and release figures that are "more action figurey", like the articulated Megabloks figs. So, I guess we'll never see Star Wars Bionicles, huh? (not that I care lol)

I remember saying MEH to a few of them at first, but those blown up pics make me not mind getting any of them! ...except the soccer player har har

I appreciate the first-hand testimonies and lament over your unfortunate purchases! They sound terrible! Looks like I'll have to suck it up and buy the real LEGO pirate ships. If the bricks aren't even a decent color then I'd rather not get them. I customize action figures, but painting large amounts of LEGOs is beyond my patience! The florescent aspect has me cringing, I don't think touching stuff that glows inexplicably is good for anyone's health xD And yeah, they're not MegaBloks, don't be blinded by hate guys, read a little lol.

No, no, send me the money and I'll buy this crap, then burn it at a later time of my choosing

Saw these at TRU for... $4.00? What the hell, Toys R Us? I picked up a Snowboarder for my sister and walked away crying after not finding an Elf The bumps are pronounced on the two boxes I got a chance to rifle through, the Snowboarder is one of the easiest to identify. I have memorized the bumps, but I still can't seem to learn braille, go figure!

I love this place, where else can you inquire about a problem and have a thermoplastic engineer conveniently stroll by and give you a solution?

There are a couple of bootleg lego sets actually, up on ebay that I saw that are bootlegs but look great and are way cheaper than their official counterparts (...because that's what bootlegs are for, of course, haha). They're found by searching for "enlightenment". Maybe it's just because I'm partial to the pretty color on the sails, but I love that ship, and would have no problem plunking down the cash if I had it (I bought a bunch of cheap Space Police stuff recently :D ). Has anyone bought some of these? The also have City Police and Firefighter sets, along with closeups of the actual products in each auction. (am I gonna get yelled at for posting this? :P) This piano is pretty awesome http://img526.imageshack.us/img526/4738/t2bnmxehaxxxxxxxx196536.jpg

I want some squid-aliens! :D

Oh noes! Thanks!

I wanted to say Gender Balance was important, but you could just switch the head with one in your collection if you felt like it, har har. Still, it'd be nice to get more female heads/hairpieces. Love that punk rocker, he's totally going to turn into a chick when I get him xD

I was told the lego set in store displays are shipped to them pre-assembled and glued together, would it be possible to muscle the bricks apart or is the glue indestructible?

Those worms outshine the robots, awesome creatures!
