That window is quite impressive. I'm digging those candles too, they look like the real thing.

This. Make sure you have a nice big table to build on and make separate piles out of each bag. That's what I always do with big, unnumbered bags sets.

9515 The Malevolence & 9526 Palpatines Arrest. Not bad, saved me quite some money not having to buy them.

I believe he came in Star Wars Pod Racer Bucket. Edit:upon further review, I thought it was 7159. But that's the one that has that awful Aldar Beedo that Oky posted.

You're gonna love building him! Have fun. Got a few Christmas goodies from the parents 9515 The Malevolence 9526 Palpatines Arrest

With all the hate for the Clone Wars figs, you have to only look at the source material for their deformities. In that respect, they're probably the best and most accurate figs. I happened to like the Clne Wars figs just fine. I haven't gotten my hands on CW Padme yet., so my opinion may change.

Nice shots, Hobbestimus! You're really making it hard for me to not spend more money I don't have on TMNT sets at the moment.

Especially since it's going $50(+\-), there's no way there's going to be 10+ figs. This sounds pretty good, and probably not far off the mark. That's basically what 6868 Hulks Helicarrier Breakout had in terms of figs.

Its not like blind packaging is anything new in the toy industry. TLG didn't come up with it as a way to suck money out of parents... Have you never heard of/seen all those vending machines at grocery stores and such? Don't remember Monster In My Pocket(among other blind bag toys I can't remember)? I've never understood why people make such a big stink over blind packaging. If you're really that worried about buying figures you already have, stick to eBay/brick link. It's not like these are a lot of money and buying a few extra isn't going to break the bank...

Jack Reacher- good murder mystery, action packed, a few funny moments, great cars. Awaiting 24 hour marathon of 'A Christmas Story'

Bah-dum-cha! Clever.

Awesome! I love the submarine, it looks quite menacing the way you portrayed it.

Love them! Especially the reindeer with his little buck teeth sticking out. Another great job!

Haha, that's a great storyline. They are some serious exterminators with that kind of firepower they have. I like this! Z06- it's nice to hear they don't take eight years(possible slight exaggeration) to build them.

Day 19 has ne stumped too... I'm guessing its someone lifting a house/building(?). How about a hint, DC or Marvel?

Wow, look at all those conquistadors!

I'm a bit worried about this now. With MWT being pushed to the side due to Lone Ranger, could this meet the same fate due to Galaxy Squad... I know the concepts are quite different, but both are space.

Oh wow, that is huge. I still stand by its price is whatever someone is willing to pay.

Is this known fact, or assumption?

The thing that bothers me about the taking away sales from Lone Ranger, while I obviously don't know the spending habits, but I gave a pretty good idea of AFOLs here(thanks to the bought today thread). For the most part, us AFOLs don't just buyvone set from a theme and call it a day. I know I would've bought MWT and LR sets(once I see them, I'm sure I'll buy them). Again, I wish we knew the voting percentages of kids:AFOLs.

Can you post a photo? If it's what I think it is, I'm super jealous! I tried getting one a few years back. Can't help you on pricing though. More than likely it's worth whatever someone(s) is willing to pay. Since there isn't much of anything to look at in the market.

Nope, 21102 Minecraft Micro World needed a license as well. Again, nope. It was made known in the thread for MWT that it would be a single building, at least to start. There was even a thread with a poll to see which one would've been built.

Well all, it's been real. I know the majority of members here won't read this because they're all gone... But, this was a fun contest. I really wanted to know who won though.

This is cool! I like the photos, very cool presentation of your MOC. Nicely built road and earth.

Hmm..maybe there's so new price point strategy in TLG. New themes with a lot of new minifig accessories/elements have jacked up prices?(see TMNT for price hike)
