Thanks for the picture However the same can't be said for the set, wow, what a horrible advent calender, that set is pretty useless to me, I have never liked the minis. Why couldn't they have done little scenes with a speederbike, STAP or mini walker like the promo polybags?? The only good thing is you get a TIE Pilot, R2-Q5 and a Clone Pilot and the others are all fodder. The new fig spot was wasted, I don't need a CW Santa Yoda, at least a regular yoda I would be ok with Probably will be overpriced too

Wow, great work here, I really like the Maersk Building, and the loader Also you have to love the Maersk Blue colors, I just want the train more now and I know I have to wait it just came out and I need to get older sets first I also really like the TRU Container, is that a custom made one or from the Truck? And the Classic Space container is nice too. Thank you for sharing this with us

Looks good thank you admins

Not sure if this is where it goes but Ebay is sending invitations to members to get 10% Ebay Bucks and a $5 bucks certificate for the first purchase, and all you have to do is download/install/pin and go through there to get the rewards. I love buying incentives

why must you tempt me? Maybe the Shadow ARF will appear in the CW eventually? I want Shadow Clone & ARC Troopers now
-
Me too but I like the White Boba

Yes I also strongly agree they should bring it back, however I hope it is a standard Western theme and not some fantasy crap like ninjago or so. The collectible figs brought us a Cowboy and 2 Indian's, which is a great start! The Bison prototype is awesome and should be used if we get a new theme. Still on my wishlist of themes to be brought back to former awesomeness, along with Pirates. You were the strongest contributor to my ideas for new Wild West sets I remember So yes so many possibilities.

Wow great work, I really like how you managed to integrate, System City, Modular Buildings, even castle and sets from the past in a layout, which is a hard to accomplish and has always bothered me as I like things to complement (a reason why I never bought any modular buildings as of today). I wish I could do something like this but I don't have the space, baseplates or track required, but I am slowly working to something like this one day. Some sets I still need to get are the Trains, track, Bank etc. But enough and lets look at what you have done and some suggestions. I really like the Farm area But my favorite part is the beach, imagine though a Cargo ship while your swimming, maybe a harbor area? Also some wind surfers and other small watercraft and expand the upcoming marina to hold more boats ( maybe a Cabin Cruiser?) The collectible minifigs, I always try to get the ones that fit into the city the best and they are all very detailed, I also get figs from other sets like Agents and the next space theme which have some good Civilians, which I find is the hardest thing to come by Overall it looks great!

Thanks for a great review! You pointed things out I didn't notice the first time. I voted outstanding but now I think it should be above average. This is still my favorite set of the lineup for these reasons: + 2 horses + Dark Green Decent/nice carriage + Great Figs, the officer, coach driver etc + includes a good deal of the new parts + printed parts + it is civilian! However there are some things that need improvement - The smaller coal cart is somewhat useless, I would have liked to seen the extra parts + higher part rating applied to the Pub/Tavern - the facade looks quite good but the inside is poor, the second level is sad, they should have made it like a complete structure like in MMV, open close, but some modding can do it - Pearl Gold instead of Chrome or even metallic gold, its hideous - Price, could have been 500+ parts and thrown in another solider or civilian for the $50 price tag Overall still a very good set and easily modded to look great with MMV.

List of reputable websites selling misb lego
Piranha replied to LEGO Maniac JEM's topic in Buy, Sell, Trade and Finds
Bricklink! But other hidden ones would be good too. -
Thank you for that I just paid $18 for that set and $41 for Vader's TIE, I could have gotten both for under $35!

Hello everyone, I am interesting in trading my 7676 RGS for IFS 10210 Trade Details: What you would get: 7676 Republic Attack Gunship - No figs or box - New condition, many polybags unopened - Instructions, unpeeled sticker sheet What you would send me (first) - MISB Imperial Flagship 10210 Each party pays shipping,tracking and insurance expenses. PM me if interested (yes I have a separate selling/trading topic ( mods) but I think this particular deal needs its own topic)

You guys are so funny I picked up 6212 recently and haven't built it, and I also agree that it is time for a redesign (w/ new figs)
-
Thanks that does look rather good I admit. The torso is very nice and could be useful for some Shadow ARC Troopers later on perhaps?
-
Brilliant, +1 I am thinking Stranded Island Beach : $10-20 Includes Jack and Elizabeth in "beach" attire, rum cache ( ) , bonfire , classic palm trees (not single mold), animals like a shark, monkey, parrot, of course the island, perhaps baseplate or brickbuilt with several extensions, and maybe a rowboat. (might aswell through in treasure of some sort) (btw I hope this line doesn't go for too long and we get back to a regular generic pirate theme because there are far more potential sets, I think an Indiana Jones or Batman run of this theme will suffice)
-
I saw them at the LEGO Store, Hawaii, I wanted to get some but I am broke.

Thank you

Hey thanks for starting this topic and all the people who replied. You all have also convinced me that this set is worth it for a pirate collection. I will surely buy it before the end of the year or much sooner I don't want it to be gone and pay 5x the price online. As for the IFS, I would say that will be around a little while longer it was just released last year, and that is also on my buy list.

Hello thank you for a great review! Do you think you could please take a picture of the back of the instruction manual? I am working on a personal gallery, and the generic TLG one won't do. Thanks!

Post your general LEGO Star Wars questions here
Piranha replied to XimenaPaulina's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Do you buy already made customs then? TLG Official Kama and Pauldron it is Thanks! -
I am also thinking of the TRU BOGO for POTC and other sets. How long does it last? Are the other new sets out, like City? Is the BOGO useless with the TRU Markup? Should I just go to the LEGO store and get points for the sets? I have a $5 coupon off $50 or more, and 18 points away from a reward.
-
I think your close, but I don't think TLG would give us another gate another snowspeeder another control room etc. Or would they? I hope it is a set based on the shield generator with Luke, Han, Medical Droid, medical bay or smaller attached rooms, Major Bren, some ion cannons or turrets and some snowtroopers and rebel troopers. I had a feeling it would be Yavin (Medal) Han in the book as the promo fig, it doesn't bother me but it isn't going to have me jumping for joy anytime soon

Piranha replied to XimenaPaulina's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Thanks you are right they don't really match up. And on the exact fig I wanted for. Yeah sadly I guess I will have to go with a set similar like that for Rex. I plan to also do arm decals as well. Do you customize your SW figs? Also which Pauldron would look better (on Rex), TLG Black or Grey, or this cloth custom one by Minifig Maker (ARC one in blue) About the Kama leg armor (Rex again): I think the TLG Kama is better than a cloth one yeah? -
Thanks for this great first time review this is easily my favorite of the new POTC sets, civilian town for pirate to pillage, two horses and a nicely built carraige, through in some nice figs and cool accessories and it is great. I would have liked a swordholder for Jack though and another white one for the other solider and I wish the hat was removable off Jacks Dreadlocks, this just means now I need a removed dreadlock and a hat one.
