Intercom(Ground Intelligence Carida) : Most of our rebel friends are dead or captured, only a select few remain The empire will suffer for our losses, luckily we managed to crush their academy and burn it to the ground! Intercom: What do we now General? Escape to hyperspace if you can, there is nothing that you can do *Frowns knowing the Empire has gained the upper hand* Intercom: Very well, see you back at base..... To Myself:I don't understand, we raided their academy and escaped, yet some stayed behind and got slaughtered! Acclamator Communications: General, do you need space support? No I will do this task alone........

I wish to see the latest updates on the Carida situation, I feel something bad in the force Captain Carver: Most Distressing news General, the Empire has captured our leader Commader Scouts Damn the tyrannical empire! He will be tortured and our rebel base location might be discovered Captain Carver: He would never tell them such a thing They all crack under torture sooner or later Captain Carver: Should we set course for return to Carida? Lord Vader is there, the one who slaughtered jedi, I am no match for him The Imperial fleet is there as well, even with my flagship firing at full power can only holdout for so long This situation calls for tactical genius, Captain Captain Carver: Any suggestions? Infiltrate and make them suffer........ *Goes to hanger and jumps into JSF* R5 stay here, I can't risk having you killed *JSF disappears back to hyperspace and the Imperial fleet at Carida*

Name: Gong the Hawkeye Age: 30 Background: There was a time when the citizens of the isle of EB believed there was such a place called "Earthend" many went in search of it and no one has ever returned. Its legend is that those who find it will find riches beyond their wildest dreams. Born to a viking family but raised by an oriental family gave Gong his unique name. Gong seeks revenge to the people who killed his family and plundered the viking realm. The only way he can gain enough power in order to fulfill his wish is to find Earthend. Along his many travels he acquired a mythological scythe supposedly able to create earth quakes and tornadoes. He also forged a unique helm from cedar wood and mytherial(precious rare metal). In the valley of the dragons he found a unique papyrus scroll containing the location of Earthend. Since then he obsessed with finding it and will use any means to get there. He is tough rugged warrior who is not always happy. Faction: Vikings Class: Elite Viking Warrior Looks: Coming soon.....

Hear ye Hear ye: "Morituri te salutant!"

This one might be correct because I was chatting with my SW buddy on MSN who knows an lego employee Once in a while he gives him a sneak preview like with the walking AT-AT He says the Death Star set includes the new Luke,Han and Obi from the UCS MF and is large playset like cloud city was before it Something interestingly he did mention was that it included an exclusive fig It could be the chrome R2! :'-) EDIT:

Gamespots latest article on the game had an interesting tidbit "There will be several bonus characters that you can purchase from the Kingdom of the Crystal skull" I wonder who they will be? EDIT:

Re-watching classics Star Wars Episode IV! Han shot first though! *wacko*

Still each exclusive set is only costing you around $6.50 which is a really great deal considering that it is an exclusive set and they have the same piece count as other 6$ sets If it's another CW Anakin I'll still be pissed since that will be his 3rd appearance! :-| X-D All I want is a red ARC trooper with laser turret or speeder bike :'-)

Ebay seller ki$walker in the past sold this fig for around $15-20 Kinda pricey but it is a sweet fig, with pauldrons and custom blaster So if you bought 4 of those it would cost $60!! X-O However Kaminoian sells the decals to make basic 501st troops for $3.50 so if you bought 4 decals it would be $14! Plus the cost of the figs and then there is paudrons and blasters...... The cost would rise very quickly Hence the need for an official TLC 501st battlepack :'-) The issue is that it would be a specialized BP Basic ones that we have seen are Clone,Droid, Rebel and Empire All 4 have been covered so the next step is specilized BPs For example: Snowtrooper and Hoth Rebel soldiers are not basic since they only appear on Hoth in the fifth film That would be considered a specilaized BP If we were to get a BP similar to that then there would be no reason why TLC wouldn't give us a 501st BP If the 10th SW set is the Jedi Temple during the assault and it includes 501st then it's less likely we would see a 501st BP because TLC would use that "exclusive" factor to boost sales :-)

Sweet! *sweet* I went to go work on my entry but I just sat there and thought "Damn I have no clue on what to build" So I remembered we had an index of things to build in our very own pirate forum X-D Browsing for inspiration on

This is an unscientific poll *sweet*

I have trouble conceptualizing "Official" type based entries Can we enter entires that are pirate sub-themes like Islanders, Armada? How about a new pirate based sub theme like "Ghost ships" or haunted islands? This contest does have quite a bit of rules *Insert afraid looking emoticon here*

Sounds very fun! *y* I love the "Build whatever you want" contests *wub* I'll see what I can do *sweet* Yo ho Yo ho a pirates life for me.......

Working on it...... Do you have to rub it in my face? |-/ :-P X-D

That would actually be me, and I wasn't retreating, it was the next part in the mission :-P I was wondering what happened to you , maybe you should read th last few pages :-D We have are cargo lists posted on what we raided from the academy I am long gone from the planet, the cargo freighter I had made it safely back to our secret base *sweet*

Measuring, I find a standard 2x4 brick to be .4" (inches) tall Math at work: Piranha: 185 or 6'2" Imperialshadows: 187.5 or 6'3" Caffeine:178 or 5'9" Holodoc: 196 or 6'5" Rupeeclock: 194 or 6'4" Lord_slyp: 198 or 6'6" Hinckley: 4 or 0' 1" steelharbing.. 220 or 7'3" stealthhunter: 195 or 6'5" Plural: 197 or 6'5" *sweet*

:'-) I wish TLC would give us one There have been some sweet customs done

*Aboard Acclamator* Captain Carver: General, Infiltrator has made it safely back to Polis Massa , Welcome back General it's good to see you again Was the attack on Carida a success? Yes we picked up loads of weapons and equipment, the academy was severely damaged and some sections were completely destroyed It seemed it ended as quickly as it began, that's the key to victory, striking the Empire quickly and silently then disappearing as if we had never been there Captain Carver: I heard rumors that the Empire has devolved stealth TIEs. Is it true? Unfortunately it is, I witnessed there power up close, if I hadn't been in my Stealth X they would have quickly destroyed me Captain Carver: I see you wish to set a course for Raxus Prime, the planet of junk Not only a planet of junk but of useful equipment, the CIS first began there and was a stronghold All we have to do is find the location of it and salvage as much as we can Captain Carver: Is that why we had all unnecessary items in the cargo bays discarded? Yes, now prepare to jump to hyperspace Deck Officer: Setting Coordinates for Raxus Prime, we should arrive in several days *Sighs* Now what to do for those days in hyperspace Captain Carver: I might have something that would interest you *smiles* *Acclamator disappears into hyperspace*

Here we go again :-D I'm in *sweet*
