  1. I hope the zombie footballer is extra to the ordinary series, that way we get more minifigures. But I kinda hope he's not in a book, there's a limit to how many minifigure books I require.
  2. I bought Billund Airport and I impulse bought the Palace Cinema it wasn't even that high up on my list, I wanted the Parisian Restaurant first.
  3. Very cool sinking ship, really like the two parts, very clever, and the angle you've made with the water is really good :-) took me a couple of goes to read the story (I am normally guilty of skipping straight to the pictures) but its a good tale and worth the read!
  4. There was a massive display of them in the airport, at least 100 there or so, so if you are going any time soon I am sure there will some left. You can see the issue in this photo Roof issues, on Flickr But actually I think it was more noticeable as a pile of bricks, maybe its not as bad in the finished model Billund Airport in Billund Airport, on Flickr I had another Bloody Mary and some wine on the plane and I really started to love the set, it fits nicely on a tray table and the little planes are very swooshable swooooooosh, on Flickr It would be really cool if Lego made another mini airport model with a tiny runway and planes, hours of inflight fun!
  5. Fair enough, if it's something all bricks have (I don't think I have had this colour before). I do think it spoils the cleanness of the design but I guess that's just a taste issue. It was still fun to build the airport sitting inside the airport so I wouldn't want my money back or anything like that!
  6. I really don't mind what piece (new or old) Lego uses, I am just happy to be getting a different style of dress, I hope that this means we get two different princesses wearing it in this series, together with the series 15 queen and maybe Nexo appearance and there'll be a decent new wardrobe for the minifig ladies with the possibility of ballroom scenes :-)
  7. Cool scene, liking the different rendering outputs :-)
  8. Beautiful ship, I really like the curved staircases.
  9. Cool coral reef and the splitting if the manatee is really well done (and quite hard to look at after reading the story). Awesome entry :-)
  10. I am currently in Billund airport and with time to kill I bought and built the Billund airport set. On the face of it the set looks really nice, comes in a cool box and is a very neat looking set. But after building it (which was fun) there are some quality issues with all the darker grey/silvery bricks used for the roof, three types, 1x1 cheese pieces, 1x4 curved pieces and 2x2 curved pieces. All the pieces have dark lines and marbling(?) which appears to stem from the injection into the mould or something. It's a shame because it spoils the appearance of the model as these pieces are all on the top. I will add some photos when I am back at home (but currently Flickr is concerned I am in a new location and not myself and I cannot convince it to let me sign in) Has anyone else had these issues with the set? Should I contact Lego about the quality?
  11. I got told by one of my local retailers that Lego was not taking any more orders from them until after Christmas and this was in august, although they did seem to get the order that they were waiting for. Some of their shelves were looking pretty bare.
  12. That winged helmet is very cool, I am now super excited for this figure :-) And the hairpiece for the the queen is really cool, I agree it could work really well in historical settings, loving the recolour (especially as I don't have calamity drone, yet), think I will pick up a few queens. It kinda makes sense that the farmer and scare crow have the same hat (since the scarecrow is probably wearing the farmer' old hat). Oooo I can't wait for this series :-)
  13. I am heading to Legoland for the first time (my original flight got cancelled and I am being re-routed and the whole travel time will take 4 times longer :-( but I have mixels to play with on the planes)
  14. Wow cool story and fantastic build! I really like the building, great design and the use of yellow minifigs (although I am sure flesh would have been good too)
  15. Gosh these words feel very familiar ;-p I don't really like having stuff I wrote reused in multiple posts (on and off this site) by someone else, makes me feel uncomfortable. On a lighter note, I really like this MOC, especially the cannibal chef, best bit, made me chuckle :-)
  16. Winged Warrior could be the Roman God Mercury (wishful thinking?) I guess the kendo warrior could reuse the fence guy's helmet in black Could queen still be Marie Antoinette if these are not official names If it is a classic 1960s astronaught, that would be awesome for the Doctor Who fans And female dancer could be a ballerina which would be nice :-)
  17. ah I also saw wildlife mentioned in the comments too (after I clicked translate), I would like wildlife ranger with a squirrel or something :-)
  18. Okay a whole list, is it legit? I guess it has all the "known" ones on it, and it seems to have enough scope for the standard 5 females. In the comments one on the list seems to translate to vet, I guess head of animal control. I hope we get a second cool animal as well as the piggy. Seems to have quite a few re-visited ideas though... could be a bit samey?
  19. That's my favourite bit too! And I like the sense of movement in the soldiers in general.
  20. Yes more hints please :-) :-) Also since we are getting the gingerbread house this christmas, does that up our chances of getting a gingerbread girl in the next series? I don't have a clear idea of exactly how I would want her to look different from the gingerbread man, but I want her to look tasty... (and then they can stand either side of the gingerbread house together).
  21. Ordered my train today, quite excited :-) only downside is I was ready to buy the Parisian Restaurant and now its out of stock, I guess there is no chance of it coming back before double points run out, because then I could have two trains :-)
  22. Action packed and out for blood, I like it. But who was throwing all the bananas and why?
  23. Awesome, I keep thinking I need a military band, the drums and cymbals look makable, but where does that chrome trumpet come from, any ideas (my google skills are failing me)?
  24. Amazing buildings, I love the use of the all different coloured bricks in them, really stands out!
  25. Nice neat scene! I like the rat in the sewer :-)
