Location: H03 - Kaalin Tags: N/A This is a rebuild of mccoyed's Kawashita Commissary, which can be found here: http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=113473 Kawashita Octan takes the comfort of its flight crews and guests pretty seriously. Even frigates and cruisers have fully stocked commissaries staffed by actual humans robots! The politest, most helpful humans robots in Andromeda! Let's take a closer look! Uh oh. Koro, a special consultant who works for Kawashita Octan has a delayed order and he is not happy about it! Looks like the consummate professional Ms. Melynchuk will have to quickly look up the ETA and report it to him in order to promote the excellent customer service one can expect in an Kawashita Octan commissary. Even Tim, the youngest crewman robot onboard this particular ship, is helping out by making a call to the cargo deck to check if Koro's item has been misplaced. Let's hope not, since Koro likes to order only the best exploding death devices, available now at all participating Kawashita Octan outlets! But what's this? Another consultant is trying to get on the public QE (that's Quantum Entanglement, boys and girls! only the best tech for Kawashita Octan!) communication station to make a call, but there's a marine in his way! Well, I'm sorry but our flight crew gets first priority, Mr. Beltar O'Reilly, and you'll just have to wait your turn! Who are you trying to call anyway! Over here in the corridor, a dapper Kawashita Octan executive confidently walks the halls of the ship. Where others might find the constant presence of armed marines intimidating, Mr. Tanaka Pombe is happy to see them and knows he is safe under their benevolent watch. Look how friendly they are! Jackbooted thugs? Not on an Kawashita Octan ship! Our marines know that good relations and good etiquette keep a crew happy and less likely to succumb to the Space Madness. Extra photos in spoiler: Thanks for looking, hope you enjoyed this build as much as I did! Comments and criticism welcome.

Having built WALL-E at Christmas, I deleted my vote for the Exo-Suit and switched it to him instead. He's just so cute!

I haven't watched the show in a while, but it looks pretty accurate!

Sure!

The Brickset review says it's the same size as the Helicarrier.

Two-Face is great news! I still regret selling my 2006 version. That one might be one of my favorite figures of all time.

Wow, your builds continue to impress! Great work on the trees and the drone.

Hmm. Volcano sets could be interesting if they're done right. I have a bad feeling they'll be just be some BURPS with trans-orange cheese slopes though. A new Gas Station is long overdue, we'll see if it can live up to 7993, that was a great set.

Thanks for all the comments! Thanks! I built the cockpit and had the ship finished before I tried to fit him inside... He only fit with his hands up like that. I picked a random water planet and spur of the moment decided to link it to Big Sal's boat... probably should have stopped to think it's on the wrong side of the galaxy.

Thanks for all the comments guys! Thanks for the advice! I swapped the heads as you suggested and it looks much better. I'll post a picture eventually. Not currently, but I am thinking that I will plan the expansion in LDD. If and when I get around to that I'll make this one in LDD and PM it to you. Speaking of expansions, I was able to scrape together enough black bricks to beef up the bottom and add Technic beams with pins for ease of expansion. I'll post pictures in this thread when I eventually order the bricks for the second tier. I'm thinking there will be slots for 3 more suits, then maybe a larger Batcomputer or a Kryponite Safe instead of the tool wall on the second floor.

The HQ looks pretty good with the modulars, but it definitely needs to be next to the bigger ones like the Town Hall and Grand Emporium. (As Cremilar has it) Imagine this beast next to something like the Detectives Office.

On an unrelated note, I can't wait for Lego to reveal their Jar-Jar Binks buildable figure for the summer wave.

I'll have another Phasma when my EB raffle prize comes.

I'm surprised nobody has done this yet.

Captain Phasma

Did you bother to read the build commentary?

Ha! Great build! The blue tree is awesome. Wait a sec... Jebediah is no "goon"... He's a highly trained Special Forces operative!

Location: H09 - Wastyria Tags: Vehicle, Exploration, Spaceship Jebediah pilots an Octan stealth fighter over the oceans of Wastyria, scanning the seas for signs of MANTIS activity. This scene, of course, is inspired by the shot of the Resistance X-Wings flying across the lake at the Battle of Takadona in The Force Awakens, which I will be seeing for a second time today. Here is a shot of the fighter by itself: Comments and criticism welcome!

A bit on the simplistic side, but a good way to display my collection of batsuits. I think I have 6, but I had to choose my 3 favorite as I ran out of black bricks. Comments and criticism welcome!

Do you have any pictures of your modification? I'd love to see that.

I really liked LEGO Batman I, but Jurassic World is close behind. I'm not entirely sure why, but I didn't care for LEGO Lord of the Rings. I don't think I even finished all the Story levels.

They were selling a lot of Brick Banks this morning. I opted to wait for the mysterious polybag to be released and got some BvS and TFA sets instead.

Got Captain Phasma today and I must say I am very impressed. The cape and battle-damage on the helmet are fantastic.

Hmm. They didn't have any of the microfighters except the Snowspeeder at the Lego store today, and the guy I asked said they just didn't get any of the others. Very odd indeed.
