    Wow, very unusual yet creative use of pieces! Jabba's tail works perfectly, and the simple details of the face give the character great personality.

    That's one of the nicest Technic/action figure MOCs I've ever seen - very smooth build for the limbs, and I love the colour scheme! The shield is fantastic, really great use of those pieces.

    Sorry for the late reply, but yes, it looks that way - in other sets, different animals wear the same party hat piece, so it's seperate and just connected by a small pin like lots of accessories in Friends sets. Edit: Just bought the set, can confirm it's a seperate piece!

    The upcoming Lego Friends set, 41112 Party Cakes, will include a pug in it - which is virtually bulldog shape, even if the colouring is different. They can't produce new moulds, true, but they can do recolours and new prints for parts in Lego Ideas sets. So, if you got the Friends pug then it wouldn't matter about the colour/print.

    Those heads bring to mind - dare I say it - the old Galidor figures. They're not bad moulds necessarily, but I think any time Lego makes figures like this it's going to look a bit weird, as (unlike the bodies) the heads aren't brick-built. I think Rey and the Stormtroopers look pretty cool, anyway.

    LEGO's been like this for as long as I can remember... I've never found it worthy of complaint; the packaging is cheap and disposable, this allowing most of the money to go towards the actual product. Board games are meant to be stored back in their original boxes after every use, so it makes sense for them to have trays and suchlike. And, as you say, their pieces are often made of cardboard - which means they can afford to spend more on the packaging.

    Fantastic MOC! I was at an old British pub right next to a canal the other day, and I can tell you this captures it perfectly. I especially like your roofing techniques on both the building and boat, and the plantlife.

    That's true, but also, it's not just about the content... LotR, Star Wars and Indiana Jones are all aimed at a crossover market of both adults and children. As far as I know, The X-Files was just aimed at adults. LEGO tends to make products for the kids of the present, and although I watched The X-Files as a kid (around the years that it aired), I can't imagine that many kids do so nowadays and LEGO have no way of finding out if they do.

    No further comment needed. There are definitely others, but these ones come to mind straight away...

    For a moment I thought that was a photo of a real building! The lack of studs and ordinary brick techniques on the outside give it quite a sense of realism. Nice details inside, too!
  11. The Indivisible Woman
    That roofing technique is great, and the scorpions definitely add to it! Love the water too, never seen it done quite like that before. Really nice work overall!
  12. The Indivisible Woman
    Thanks, haha, but it is in character! -
  13. The Indivisible Woman
    Thanks! To be honest, I wasn't really going for any particular scale - although I didn't want it to be huge - but I'm glad you like that.
  14. The Indivisible Woman
    It's certainly cleaner and tidier than any supermarket I've been to - but a really nice build! The details are great, I think you have some really inventive building techniques for seemingly simple (in the real world) things like shelves, holders and shopping items. Good work!
  15. The Indivisible Woman
    Wow, I love this! It would be perfect as a set if it weren't for the whole "mature themes" thing (although saying that, I started watching The X-Files from about age 8). The attention to detail is brilliant, even down to the tiny photos on their badges, and it's very appropriate for the subject matter.

    I've been reading a lot of Jamie Hewlett and Alan Martin's great Tank Girl comic books recently and, after looking online and only seeing movie-version MOCs of the tank, I thought I'd make my own inspired by the comics... TG and her assortment of wild weapons! Interior furnishings borrowed stolen from Jet Girl. Thanks for looking - comments welcome!
  17. The Indivisible Woman
    Very nice MOCs, preroller and Stiel, but they deserve to be posted as their own topics rather than as comments to EtelEnzos' own customs topic!

    If it's genuinely going ahead, this could be fantastic. I always found LEGO Creator a bit limiting - although the Harry Potter and Knights Kingdom ones were fun for what they were - but considering all that can be done with videogames these days, this is sure to be the ultimate building game out there!
  19. The Indivisible Woman
    I don't even watch Game of Thrones (yet!) but I can see that these - and the others on your Flickr - are perfect. The faces and hairpieces are absolutely spot-on! Nice work.
  20. The Indivisible Woman
    Always liked the Nautilus, and this is fantastic - amazing attention to detail! Loving the different uses of sloped pieces, too.
  21. The Indivisible Woman
    I think for me, it's still got to be Adventurers. I'm very into minifigs, but Adventurers had it all: great minifigures, buildings, vehicles (that airship!), monsters, animals... The Adventurers themes always had interesting, if undefined, plots - and more than any other theme, it gave a (very simple) insight into ancient cultures from around the world. In terms of themes that are still around, I really like the superheroes ones, but that's more because it's something I was already a fan of. Absolutely loving the new Elves theme, though - the sets are just really pretty!
  22. The Indivisible Woman
    Thanks for the welcomings! I may be posting a MOC on here today or tomorrow. Haha, it was actually sunny when I posted this though. And it is right now!
  23. The Indivisible Woman
    I get this, absolutely! For me it goes way back to LEGO Racers - I wanted to recreate everything in the game! And then the Rock Raiders game came along, and for a long time I wished I could make something like their spaceship, but unfortunately there aren't that many turquoise parts around. I'm kind of conflicted about the whole non-LEGO backgrounds thing. On the one hand, it usually looks nice and doesn't ruin the appearance of the game, but on the other hand it's just really cool to see absolutely everything made out of LEGO (like in The LEGO Movie Videogame) and think "I could actually make that!"
  24. The Indivisible Woman
    Lovely build, especially in the construction of the rooves and the criss-crossing wooden beams. It kind of reminds me of the castles in the Kurosawa movie Throne of Blood, but maybe that shows how much I know about Japanese architecture... I always think of Tibetan or Cambodian Buddhist temples, so it's interesting to see a Japanese one! Same here - the attention to detail is impeccable. How sturdy is the curved roof, by the way? It looks great, but looking at the process of how you built it I feel like it could be quite brittle (maybe not)?
  25. The Indivisible Woman
    I feel like it would take me a few years just to assemble the right bricks for this - it's beautifully intricate! I particularly love the techniques for the windows and the waterfall, and the overall humour of the build as well!
