Piranha

Took me awhile to find this topic, had to search for it by checking my latest posts Yes that is correct, the NY Toy Fair

Hey I like the surfer and lifeguard Oh I see someone revived the poll WhiteFang made about Series 1 Favorite Fig, I had forgotten about that one But I don't know what to do, this poll is similar but has series 2 as well Good thing we have mods to sort these things out

Well all I know is there was 150 of those given out at the Canadian Toy Fair and that I want one If a lucky few hit the online markets I expect them to be very pricey

Well he is not a knight so I made the polls for him However I changed it up a bit. What is your favorite fig from series one? What is your favorite fig from series two? What series do you like better? Series 1 Series 2 Oh and the main Collectable Figs Topic Mine are Astronaut Hoplite 2

Nevermind... hehe I wondered why you didn't do post them, but forget you have to be a knight to make a poll, I will do this for you

Thanks for those new pics! The farmer impulse is great! I love the fact that it is a cheap way to get a pig. Now the LEGO truck is awesome The little LEGO sets are really cool and for $35 USD, that is fairly reasonable.

Well we knew about series 2 from some brief glimpses, but this is great, thanks! I see the surfer mentioned earlier, nice! Very nice, but the skier is missing?

Thanks for sharing What interests me most is all those nice civilian figs! How come this theme gets better city figs, than the acutal city theme? Hopefully parts in new colors and new torsos will be featured.

Cool Topic B, My first inclination was to go with Helicopter due to the Hawaii reference But then carefully over viewed it and selected Trains, simply because Trains are awesome. Buses are good too, but we have only seen 1, so I would like to see more expanding on it.

One of the best posts in this topic $2 is cheaper then I had previous speculated of around $5 That is great news! I will have to buy alot now, $15-20 worth at least. But over here they will be marked up just like the impulse $3.50 online, $5.00 in store here

Two of my favorite things, LEGO and aquariums. However I would never mix the two. Firstly because my aquariums have natural aquascaping, plants, rocks, etc. And I don't want to have my LEGO in a place where I couldn't easily access them, plus as mentioned they would get dirty fast with algae growth.

Yes this will be a very popular way to get what you want. I would trade you a nurse but hey I like her too I thought they come in a box like the Impulse? EDIT: Where is the post where it says if you buy a case of these figs you are guaranteed 1 of each?

Lets not get ridiculous here Ok phew, no 6 page discussion needed for this one Thanks for explaining yourself Back on topic, I plan to buy at least $20 worth of these random boxes, for the first wave, hope I get lucky on the first try, but doesn't everyone? They are going to be $3 each correct? Which I find extremely conservative for these exclusive figs

Hello everyone, So this is quite simple, over in the Historical forum, Castle exists , yet it wasn't always exactly historical Now TLG switched back to more a "real" castle theme. I use "real" very loosely as there still elements of fantasy in it So I pose the question to the Space forum. What do you guys like better? Fantasy Space- this is like aliens, laser cannons, etc... Dare I say Star Wars-ish? Space Exploration- Sound boring huh? I don't mean like modern day, space shuttles and such. Space is cool because it contains fantasy elements that are represented in futuristic stuff. That is all good, but this is meant toward just exploration of space. Much Like classic space did . Moon bases, land rovers, spaceships etc

Yeah, you did realize that it was a joke? If I recall Star Wars is LEGOs biggest and most popular money maker. I can dream can't I? EDIT: great I went off topic, continue along

According to Bricklink that torso appears in 17 sets and is on 9 minifigs I enjoyed reading your post about how LEGO does things in the instructions that seem strange. I always found this set particularly weak. Reminds me of this, but I would say this is much better. The only good thing is the street signs, until I found out they were stickers and that was a slap in the face when it comes to city Not even the signs are printed

Those parts caught my eye!! Particularly the utensils and the red cowboy hat. In all my collecting and searching for rare part colors I have never seen those before. I guess this means I am an amateur

I was trying to find my last post so I could read after that, I had to go back 5-6 pages, and in one day! But happily before giving up I did read Bonaparte's comment regarding the quality issue. And I am somewhat relieved that they will be held to a higher quality. But I think all LEGO products should be held to high quality. That was one of the reasons why I buy it, one of the few things not made in china I would say the zombie is the last fig I want, and if I get it, that is going straight to my BL store for a little lower than the lowest price, so I can sell it My most wanted of the 1st wave is the Astronaut, and I have been hoping for a decent space theme ever since Classic Space, maybe when Star Wars dies, just maybe

I voted for Greeks/Spartans which are losing considerably by 36 votes! With the Hoplite being a collectible fig now who knows? LEGO said they are exclusive figs, so maybe never even? And the Hoplite will be in a very very high demand, I would say $12-15 being a good guess. Hope I can find one

You had me at rare part But as mentioned the red fire helmet is not a genuine LEGO part

eeww that shovel is Looks like a poor LEGO imitation In that Brickset link, the writer says 2 pounds for the UK. Is it safe to assume around $2-3 for the USA? That would be quite reasonable. And I would buy quite a few. Some are rarer than others? uh-oh So much for all those odds and probabilities calculations I did

That actually sounds good to me! I will buy one and if I don't get a fig I liked, sell it at BrickLink then reinvest until I get the ones I wanted Surprises are great, this idea of an opaque bag sounds ok now. And in case anyone saved their X-Ray scanner from the Chrome Vader and Chrome C-3PO days, now would be a good time to use it again.

So the reserves are for when someone quits? And does the replacement get a new character?

Cool, thanks for those new pics! Again I love that they returned to more middle ages castle, meaning human vs human. The large castle, prison cart and Joker look like the the best sets. I will definitely pick up the cart and joker The new helmets they made look pretty good to me. EDIT: Castle Emoticons anyone?

Oh thanks Does anyone have a picture that shows those figures? , as the surfer and pharaoh sound great! I hope I get the Hoplite, Surfer, Skier, Pharaoh all in one bag on my first try They come in random packs of 3 correct?
