  1. This isn't in the chaotic and frankly unreadable Star Wars section. 77 pages of civilized discussion.
  2. Ahh I see, I don't live in Europe so I didn't know that the prices used to be higher over there. Here in the US the BP prices are raised every few years, and this year they raised it from 12.99 to 14.99. I thought that you were saying another price raise was in store for 2018. Sorry for the confusion.
  3. I have every Battle Pack ever made but they seem to have finally priced me out. Disappointing.
  4. The episodes just became available a few days ago, but they're mostly not in English.
  5. I honestly would like an explanation from some people for why they voted for the Scarecrow/Don't like the Elf. The Elf can't help that LOTR just so happened to come out a year later. If a Scarecrow-centric theme had come out right after the Scarecrow, would you all have voted for the Elf using the same argument?
  6. Similar logic can be applied to the Scarecrow. It has a new hat piece but there were several scarecrows that came before it (See: Batman). On the subject of new parts, the Elf has two, and one of them has not been used since. The Elf also contains three exclusive printed parts that are incredibly useful to Castle collectors everywhere. The Elf was based off of LOTR, mostly because Fantasy Era was as well. He exists as a consolation prize to those who wanted an Elf faction back in 2009 but never got one.
  7. Welome, Adam. See you around!
  8. Picked up the Heligoyle at TRU today, despite some criticism from others (Jang, etc.) I think it's well-designed and unique. Would highly recommend, even more so if you find it on discount.
  9. https://brickseek.com I was literally just using this before I read your post
  10. The feature that allows Wu to actually get in the bed is genius. Can't believe TLG hasn't tried that feature before. Overall it's a good set, the attention to detail is superb.
  11. Third-ed. I think that it would be a great idea to elect mods to two-year terms and such. There wouldn't be as much fighting that way if we could get it to work properly.
  12. IMO Hazmat is the only figure remaining that has any chance at defeating the Elf, and if the Faun upsets him here than the Elf has a much better shot at winning it all. I love Hazmat too, this round was the first time I didn't vote for him.
  13. All of these questions are within @Sir von Lego's power to answer, but for whatever reason he stopped posting in this thread shortly after its inception. Where art thou, SvL?
  14. Yikes... Pros: - Kylo's TIE looks fantastic. Easily the best set of the wave. - Praetorian Guard figure is pretty cool. - Resistance Bomber is a nice, original idea with a good figure selection. Cons: - BB-8 is not only a mess, but totally unnecessary. - FO Star Destroyer and FO AT-AT are almost carbon copies of the OT versions, but that's Disney's fault. - Chewbacca. Never should have been considered for a buildable figure. - The FO Scout Walker. The weird (but intriguing) design isn't the problem, it's the price. Isn't this thing supposed to be $50? It's tiny! That box size is indicative of a $20 set. Overall, underwhelming but I expected that. The most glaring omission of obviously Luke, but he'll be in a January set for sure. Don't see myself buying any of these, especially for those prices.
  15. Elves is a creative and well thought out theme, but I doesn't appeal to me at all, which is a shame. It had a three year run and a wide variety of sets, so it wouldn't exactly be a tragedy if it didn't continue. In fact, if Elves ends this year and Nexo ends next year we have a much better chance of seeing a new Castle theme in 2019 since there would be nothing to compete with it.
