  1. The speeder / fighter that is standing at the platform where Grevious dies. Obi steals it afterwards... It is looking a little bit like a Vulture droid, just more bulky and a real ship and not a Droid...
  2. Greatest movie ever? Sorry, NO! A great movie and one of the best that were in the cinemas lately?? YES! YES! YES!!!! :oD :oD This movie was in one way very shocking, scary and also a bit disturbing and in the other way just great and cool!!!! Pros: - All this fantastic action and the whole cinematic things! Almost perfectly directed! - Artoo ROCKED!!!!! Coolest Robo action ever!!! - Ani's development, even if it was shortened you get the idea of it (showing this aspect even more had shortened the action part) - The scene with the Jedi kids... Ani's lightsaber blade coming out of the hilt... :() I really was shocked.... - McGregors acting: Superb!!! - New vehicles: *wub* (Loved that GG craft) - The "Code 66" Jedi execution scenes... almost as scary as the padawan killing. - Also have seen the falcon!!! :oo - fits almost perfectly in the gap of PT and OT - ... for more I have to see it twice to get a clear mind about it (just returned from the theater and am still a bit whoo-hoo in my mind...) Cons: - Grevious was wether as great nor as important for the storyline as I expected ... Shame, this part could have been done way better... - Wassup with Palpy's face??? Hadn't he this scary face already at Ep.1 and Ep.2?? This movie told us that Mace made him looking like that, or am I wrong here??
  3. I'll order ten of her!!!! :D (let's hope this isn't any of our local girls or the GF of any of our members... *wacko* )
  4. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery....y.cgi?i=1229195 no words needed :P
  5. Hope this wasn't announced before, but at German Walmarts you can get free Vader key chains when you buy a JSF & VD set or the new TIE Fighter with light up Vader. And, much cooler: You get a free 6966 - Mini Jedi Starfighter if you buy one "Duo Pack" of Pringles, 2,78 Euro!!!!
  6. I'll see it thursday night at 22.45. I could have gotten tickets for an earlier show, but I hope that there wont be too many kids around at the later time. (BTW its out here at tuesday). And I will see it at last a second time, even if its worse (what I don't think). We had a report at the radio this morning saying that the audience at the premier at Cannes was really satisfied by the movie! So lets cross fingers for some cool time at the theater!!!! *satis*
  7. Happy Birthday, dude!!!! :)
  8. Hope, this small sketch helps! ;)
  9. Happy Birthday mate!!!
  10. Ahhh, nice little ship!!! :oo I really love the overall shape of this, the position of the cockpit and the wings that make this whole ship T-shaped! The bubble part at the front makes this thing looking somehow nostalgicly... Nice! The position of the engines is great though they could need some little beefing up ;) (at the front, the back with those whatever pieces (looking like the end parts of fire fighter hoses) is just fine!) Finally two suggestions: The square parts of the wings could need the 2x4 slopes to give the whole ship a less box shape and I'd replace the 2x4 slope at the front with a part that makes it looking less like a ram (unless you want to achieve the ram-shape) and more "round"... Nontheless a great start for your gallery, please keep your MOCs coming!!! *satis*
  11. Hey all, the first semi official announcement of the Sandcrawler 10144!!!! http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detai...s=toys&n=507846
  12. Lol, I appreciate this! There's much truth in your words, but for this special case I decided to go with a more chaotic coloring, because the vehicle isn't used in any friendly Star Trek'ish ambassador thing, it's much more a wild and evil machine to hunt down poor rebels! Oh and for the grey/bley thing: When the changes were noticed the first time I was really angry. But nowadays I like more and more to build with both shades of grey (in a random placement way), especially for space MOCs it is working just fine! (for me) That may result from the fact that I haven't uploaded any recent pictures of the vehicle :P Yeah, I noticed this too. I already changed the weapons at the rear. And probably when I was able to strenghten all the joints I'll be able to put more material to the whole model and make the guns bigger! *twisted* Thanks! :) Here are some better shots with the cockpit roof removed: Pic 1 | Pic 2 | Pic 3 The click hinges will be removed later to strengthen the legs. I hope than the whole set will be even more articulable! Thanks alot for your comments! :)
  13. We'll soon come up with a much better chat room! Just be patient! :) (actually it's already uploaded and we're currently setting up everything!)
  14. Has anybody tested it so far? I'm not completely sure, but I think their server has some traffic problems currently, can't access the room. Please post your experiences here, the more tester's informations I get the better I can fit the chat room to our page!
  15. I had never a dog. Just one hamster, two mice, three turtles, several cats and a rabbit. My sisters had even more pets though, e.g. several other hamsters and two other rabbits (the second one replaced the first one which both were just kept for giving some company to my own rabbit).
  16. What the heck is a AZERTY keyboard??? And why has phes the same like me?
  17. Hi guys, today I can announce the brand new Eurobricks Chat Room! This is probably not the final version, it's advertisement stuff and from what we have seen so far it isn't the fastest service either. BUT it's free and it should work for us! So please enter it via the front page (at the left, last link (Jipay, we need a button! :P) "Chat Room") or via THIS link!
  18. Once again: The Mods can't change their counts, just the Admins have this ability! (Me e.g. *twisted* ) An if you really don't care about post counts (as you told us in the other thread) why do you complain ? If it doesn't matter it... shouldn't matter! :P
  19. Guys, just wait till all of you are killed and only the murderer is left ;) THEN the mystery is solved! BTW I'm lucky that I am not oin this train anymore, so maybe I will be one of the few survivors at the end! (Hey, one must be able to keep Eurobricks going ;))
  20. Matrix! Imagine, we could have a wide variety of themes within this one! The Sci-Fi theme brought by the hovercrafts, drones, APUs,... Then a standard city theme (inside the matrix) including cool minifigs and action! And then we could also have some sets showing e.g. the asian environement from the training fight between Neo and Morpheus or even the settings of some of the Animatrix clips ("Program" e.g.!) Would be great! My 2nd vote would go to this, too! (Just hadn't thought of it before... :$)
  21. Dude! Those MOCs rock!!! Your planes are really great, but the real jewels of your gallery are those bussesand vans!!!! :oo So much great detail in there! And the shapes are so accurate! Impressive, really impressive! Hope you'll show us more! :oD
  22. Lol, guys, please don't scare him! :P Welcome to this place, Sandoka! Hope you'll enjoy your time with us! :)
  23. Sure, why not. If there are some reasonable complaints left (concerning post counts, wise words Akkh!) please post them in the pinned thread at the "Eurobricks Website and Forum" section!
  24. Thanks for your comments! It was based on a wild cat, but somehow it now has the shape of a dog. Lol, 30 trooper, weaponary, several speeder bikes and also the most important replacement parts if some damage has to be repaired immediatelly. But somehow nobody will ever see this because there was just no space to include those fantastic details at system scale! :P They have rocket boots. All hail the imperial scientists! Me too :$ Its not 100 % stable, but if you articulate this thing one time and don't touch it it works. For the head turn mechanism: It was planned (and actually build), but I needed the joints for stabilizing the legs, so I had to remove it from its original placement. But I have ordered 24 of those hinges from Bricklink, so I will add the head-rotation mechanism again. Oh, and I have added a automatic gun at the "chest" of the walker, so single troopers or speederbikes beneath the walker and out of the range of the top gunner can be shot now! Clicky clicky hinges! But they aren't stable so they will be replaced by the ordered technic hinges! Erm... I like the eye'ish look of the X-Wing cockpits. So no argument here! :P And who knows, probably the whole head has a round bubble energy shield around it! |:| (And why should somebody attack me with blancmange or whatever? The gungans? Spidey's web??? *wacko* Eh... No critics here??? :P ;) Actually I have changed the guns a bit, now they look similar and fit better to the overall style. Hm, I added two small headlights at the front, but there are simply just no parts I could make a good head light (I thought about this alread before you mentioned it) No. If the engineers haven't included this unit into the body it's their faul! :P Nah, one pilot is enough. Think of any mecha games: You control the mecha and the guns as well! Or what about the X-Wing pilots? Have they a special gunner on board? Why shouldn't well educated imperial mecha pilots be able to do the same? And the guns could be controled by a computer if the pilot isn't able to do it!
  25. We don't want the people not to know who is who. To see somebody has signed up months ago is one thing, but this "Whoaw! 12600 posts!" effect is a bit more difficult...
