  1. I'm going to get all those microfighters and the battle packs!
  2. Of all the prelims it seems that Ninjago is the most unfinished of them all... I still can't recognise the details on the helmets because of the poor resolution. All of their torso have no prints yet. Fusion Dragon looks better in picture. :)
  3. Frankly, I am repulsed by the action figures... the proportions just don't work - If they are Mixels I would understand but aren't those supposed to be exo-suit or armour? I was expecting a proper mech. Oh well. The selling point of Nexo Knights is that it mixes both physical toys and digital play for kids -- as well as tie it up with a story through the TV show. I personally chose not to buy Nexo Knights because I am minimising the screentime of my kids....and I realise that this "interconnected nature" of Nexo Knights can drive it to success as well as cause it demise because without a powerful story driving this theme forward and not having a reason to use the game app at all, then the sets should at least be highly playable and memorable so that those kids will continue playing (and wanting more) Nexo Knights. But unfortunately, I'm not feeling that for this wave... all I am really getting are the villains.
  4. I'm a bit outdated on my dinosaur knowledge so I really don't know if there is anything wrong with the model choices. I think the LEGO designers also wanted to leave much of details to kids' imagination so even if the models are inaccurate, scale or proportion wise, it should serve its purpose well.
  5. Great MOC! How tall is that?? I want to see this in person... Are you displaying this in any LUG nearby?
  6. The "starring" section of the end credits is only about 1.5 - 2 seconds only so unless you know his voice very distinctly or you happen to glance the credit and capture his name, a lot of people will miss it... It's like Martha Jones was in The Force Awakens and yet only few people know about it... because it was split-second only, too.
  7. Only in Friends that the original character torso print is still used today, since 2012... and it seems to be okay. If this ever happened to Ninjago or Nexo Knights (or even licensed themes) I think we're going to get a lot of complaints. Anyway... that umbrella piece in black is so long overdue and for that reason I think I might get 41305 Emma's Photo Studio.
  8. This season premiere started with a bang! How they got Tom Baker (4th Doctor ) to voice for Bendu is interesting. I'm amused that the list of Doctor Who alumni crossing over Star Wars universe is growing.
  9. You're right...this is the 3rd option. I posted yesterday that BBcode are still supported here -- but there is no documentation right now which is officially supported and to what extent...
  10. To insert (embed) image, just copy the link of an image (URL) and paste it into the editor -- the post editor will automatically insert the image in the post. EDIT - it is not working now... was working yesterday. Now I can't insert other media from URL as well.
  11. I can't really see much detail because the pics are blurry.... But of all the part 2 leaks I am most interested in the Y-Wing.
  12. Oh... I do see it at the sub-forum topic index... but I never use that feature as I what I used to do is list the topics I have replied or followed, and when I click on each topic it will bring me automatically to my first unread post. Now with the new update, it either brings me at the top or at the bottom of that topic page I last read -- like how @Borex mentioned. What I was referring to earlier is the activity stream topic list... which does not bring you to the last read post, but at least gives you a visual indicator which post was the last one I've read.
  13. haha! :P I thought it was an original character too! ... you're not alone.
  14. I'm not in the US so I don't know if we are getting Revan in my region.... but there is a Force Friday event scheduled here by the local TRU store.
  15. There is a dark blue bar that separates the last read post from the thread... Although the new forum does not locate the last read post for you anymore. @Fugazi I don't see that brick you are referring to.
  16. Under 5 minutes. Way to go! I don't know why the LEGO designers did not do the hatch this way... maybe the source material did not portray the hatch to open that way so they left out that detail in early design process.
  17. You're right, it resembles the 6889 Recon Robot but in medium azure. It also has an alternate build for robo-dog, which reminds me of Aibo :)
  18. @Rotundus it is an issue across the forums until the conversion is finished with the old posts due to the forums software upgrade. It can take days, even weeks. If you are using Chrome, it is a browser notification setting that will pop up notification messages whenever there is new activity in the forum that you opted to receive notifications.
  19. So we can do nested quoting as well? (Are all the people quoted around here also notified?) No...um... ...unless you like it! Good answer... But, to be honest: No, I don't like it...
  20. For testing purposes @Hinckley I have tested this in at least 5 different platform/devices and that overlay menu is not working on iPhone (iOS 9.x) and Android (M) for both Safari and Chrome. If I simulate the small screen size on a Mac (El Capitan/Sierra) or PC (Windows 10) it seems to work for Chrome and Safari but on actual mobile devices, they don't. Even on iPad, there is a horizontal scroll bar that appears below so the CSS code is not behaving as expected.
  21. Indeed if I use the basic BBcodes which I am doing now, it shows correctly.... However, more test is needed as to what "basic support" means. You can see below what I have done. The actual code I used below is written in the code block (without syntax highlighting) For those who do not like double spacing, you can use SHIFT+ENTER to create a single line break which should be equivalent to <BR> HTML code. I think the parser interprets single enter keystroke as a new paragraph entirely that's why it creates double spacing which is a common behaviour in document processor like MS Word. bold italics underline strikethrough color URL test ordered with numbers list test ordered with letters list test unordered list or bulleted list [b] bold [/b] [i] italics [/i] [u] underline [/u] [s]strikethrough[/s] [color=red]color[/color] [url=http://www.eurobricks.com/]URL[/url] [url=http://www.eurobricks.com/][img=http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/uploads/profile/photo-thumb-5261.jpg][/url] [list=1] [*]test [*]ordered with numbers [*]list [/list] [list=a] [*]test [*]ordered with letters [*]list [/list] [list] [*]test [*]unordered list [*]or bulleted list [/list] [quote="Mr. Quotes"]This is a quotable quotes[/quote]
  22. Not that I know of.. I haven't seen part 2 yet.
  23. Kids will still get keychains, but it is less likely to be in their mouth
  24. The designer of that dinosaur set put a lot of thought to make it possible to make T-rex, Triceratop and Pterodactyl in one set. I will buy the beach house this time... as I have missed the previous beach houses.
  25. The Duel on Naboo is rather small.... and I also wasn't expecting that the new Phantom will be that small.
