Wow! How awesome is TLG?! Honestly though, I would prefer to win the 1000 VIP points, as I'm not really in a position to travel. I would definitely pick Billund though. As I'd probably not have an opportunity to go otherwise. Round of applause to LEGO for this!

Nobody is forcing you to read this thread...

Great job. Don't think it could've been any better.

Cool entry. I like the use of the 1x1 teeth pieces as the windows. Very ornate looking. I know this is supposed to be mini, but that doorway is a bit short. I like everything else, the 1x4 fence(?) piece above the door is nice variation, too.

Why is it even a big deal? So a tiny buckle isn't shiny...I would recommend not calling TLG for yet another torso.

That's cool. I like seeing minifig legs as fingers/toes, very cool look. The build is neat and simple enough. I like it.

B-B-B-Batpod?! Is there a Batman involved too?... Han looks great, even with those dead eyes. The gun is awesome. Your figs are always awesome. He's definitely not scruffy lookin', smooth as a babys behind...

Ha! The Bane one is funny. It would be better if you could balance Batman on Banes hands in the air, but I don't think that'll work. Great panes, Oky.

9525 Pre Vizslas Mandalorian Fighter is a great set. Cool fig in Vizsla. The ship has a great color combo and is a good looking ship with major a swoosh factor.

I recently got both myself. I haven't built 9474 yet, but I'd go with that one first. It's just so impressive looking. 9473 Mines...is a neat build, but there's A LOT of stickers, the most I've seen in a set in years. I don't mind stickers, but they are a pain.

The myth...the legend...has returned! Great shots as usual, smokebelch. I like the montage of shots from 9516.

It hurts so good! Nice little MOC. I'm not overly familiar with the book because A. I haven't read the book, B. I'm a guy. I know kind of what the book is about. Great build. That contraption on the wall doe ant look very inviting...

Just built 9473 Mines of Moria and I got a good little chuckle out of Gimli having a double sided head. I suppose as for MOCing goes, it's good. But having a mad face doesn't do much good when you have a big bushy beard in the way.

Artanis 1-1 Dr. Spock-1 just2good-1 Fun avatars, everyone. Got some laughs out of them.

It was an amazing movie. I really like how they made Bane a front runner as opposed to a second class villain. The twists were awesome and made me throw up my hands at some points. And, the ending...wow. Off topic... I'm on my iPad(first gen) and for whatever reason it won't open the spoiler tags....

Finally saw The Dark Knight Rises. Ah-mazing! Catwoman: black catsuit+red lipstick=

You do realize there's a what to buy thread in General...the beauty of it is, you can ask about any set(s), even SW.

That is awesome! So full of play features, very official. I like the use of the Holiday Target set 1x1 as the security camera. I like all the different cells and they all have unique escape features to them, great job there. Can I come over and play too?

That is excellent! I'm glad I saw this this morning instead of last night... I especially like the use of minifigs as toys. I like the flowerpot in the window and all the little details in the room. Great job on the boy, Venom and The Joker too.

What did they feature? I watched the 4 hour coverage...was there more?

9473 Mines of Moria 9474 Helms Deep S7 Tennis Ace-my 3rd... All finished with LotR. Unfortunately, I saw some of the Summer SW sets. Man! An AFOLs job is never done.

I agree. It just looks better. Great job all around, lorax. It's great seeing all these and remembering the stories. I loved the Billy Goats one!

That is an excellent movie facade, but that interior...WOW! That theatre is just amazing. The "ROYAL" sign and the spotlights are great details. I like the closed and opened umbrellas on the front of the hotel. But, the stripes on the flag are backwards. It starts and ends on red.

Agreed. You need water cannons, not squirt guns. Looking at the source picture, I have an idea for a suitable replacement, albeit may be a bit big. A jumper plate, 1x1 cone, 2 Erling(headlight) bricks. Put the jumper on the front of the Erlings and put the cone on the jumpers studs. Like I said, it's probably a bit too bulky for that particular scale, but would look pretty accurate.

That is an awesome front! It has great detailing. I love that you used just the light grey color. Your details are great and you succeeded in giving it texture, in my opinion. Some nice piece usage here to achieve that texture. I like the interior bank as well. The cameras in the corner, the tellers area are all accurate looking details. The flower bush is pretty ingenious too.
