  1. I will believe it when I see it on store shelves. As @Robert8 said, the source material can be very adult. Even if the Netflix adaptation is made differently / adapted, it still will be tainted by association with the original works in my opinion.
  2. @Vilhelm22 @Shiva @Toxic43 @ILoveSeatron - If I tagged you, you commented before. Here's an major update on this project: The remaining 385 parts required to finish the Haunted Train were ordered today, 12/20/24. (I got all of the needed wheels and most of the magnets cheap from a Lego resale shop in a trade.) I just hope these 385 parts arrive by Jan 2nd, so I can get them ready to go into the next Gateway LUG show on January 4th!
  3. My brother's standard Oct. 8th order shipped yesterday. At this rate, I'll see my Nov. 28th order in February or later.... oh well, it will makes a nice Valentines Day gift for myself.
  4. Seconded. It's quite ridiculous to think just because two people came up with the same thing independent of each other, that there must be some sort of nefarious conspiracy by LEGO to plant fake AFOLs on fan websites. (as that's how it reads when people say such silly things) ANYWAY: I actually agree with @Lyichir - it does make the canopy look glowing. I will be getting my copy on Day 1 at store opening, no matter what anyone says about it. I wasn't even alive in the 1980s, so I shouldn't have any nostalgia for this - but I do. (same with Classic Space, in all honesty) My first Space theme I remember that wasn't Star Wars was Mars Mission, which I disliked. I thought the way older classic stuff was cooler but could never afford it as a child / teen. Benny's SSS showed me the path of neo-classic space, and I'll bet (and hope!) this does the same for Blacktron 1 for today's kids. (It's is the same price point as that 2014 SPACESHIP!, after all!) I can't wait to pit them against each other in a battle...
  5. That's what the search function is for... sifting through threads so you don't have too!
  6. a good mix of both photographs and background info, with a side of a slight connecting story.
  7. I have been summoned! Here you go @Swordy, and anyone else who likes Blacktron.
  8. Try 'The secret Life of LEGO Minifigures', (a non-exclusive edition is coming, I think) for all kinds of interesting tidbits, and 'LEGO space 1978 - 1992' if you want to see how that came about.
  9. Yes. Midnight, Jan1 is when it will release for insiders. Be warned: the website will probably crash due to all the releases that night, as it usually does on Jan 1 - so you may not get it!
  10. I don't think it will be up for preorder. I'm going to the LEGO store at basically the crack of dawn on Jan 1 to secure my place in line and get my copy!
  11. I will be buying this, Day 1. (Now I just have to change all my Blacktron spaceship MOC's engine thrust to trans-red!)
  12. @FullBrickDev @Feuer Zug The model is done in real life! (I've tagged you two because you commented before) See the first post for more details / pictures, including a NEW car!
  13. Shhhh! Don't mention that word - LEGO reads these boards! It's like tempting fate!
  14. You do know Lego reads these boards, right? Don't give them any ideas!
  15. It's a leak of the official reveal date.
  16. We don't know that. There is no way there is just 2 sets for city in the summer.
  17. Will pair well with set 8677! (which is Mater, average intelligence)
  18. We have an new train coming in 2025, as noted in the CITY 2025 thread! I'm hoping for a rotary snowplow, how about you guys? @JopieK, can you please rename the thread to 'LEGO Trains ongoing Rumors and Discussion'?
  19. If this means atompunk sets, I'm all for it! I've got a CS-styled nuclear-powered train ready to go along with them! If this train turns out to be a rotary snowplow, I'm will buy at least one no matter what!
  20. I'll take "Things I didn't need to know and am now worse off for knowing" for $500.
  21. It was a joke. But in all seriousness, The Big Bang Theory has featured Lego sets or mentioned Lego several times. Heck, the night / morning after Sheldon's marriage to Amy takes place at the LEGOLAND Hotel!
  22. Awesome to hear! And RE: the fig, i figured that was the case. (i was just making a joke.)
  23. I didn't know the Rebellion had acquired BSG Vipers! But this does raise the following question: Are the Cylons helping to build the Death Star? Great work @icm!
  24. @SpacePolice89 You do know that Storage Wars show is totally faked, right? A few ex-employees / 'buyers' have said so. (just saying) As for LEGO in films and Tv, there was a film a decade ago you may have heard of? It's called the Lego Movie...
