What a beautiful little boat! *wub* It makes such a great action still. It may not be 100% realistic but it's still great work. Thanks for the story too! *sweet* (By the way, you seem to have made a mistake with you Brickshelf link. Or is everything on Brickshelf your work? X-D )

He's a very talented buider. A true artist. Something I don't think I have in me... :'-( That looks like pure evil and I love it! *wub*

The 4-Juniors line did have some good pieces in them. Shame almost all the models were lame. :-/ Good find! *sweet*

That is one of my favourite heads! *wub* Thanks very much. *sweet* Sorry for missing it and thanks for showing me the way to the divine pricelist. :-$

That is beautiful. *wub* It is very detailed and looks pretty realistic to me. I have considered that set several times but didn't buy it largely becuase of the older motorised parts. (Is your MOC motorised?)

In this modern world that's close enough! :-P

I hope this didn't take you too long... 8-| Lego do this a lot with the town sets too.

Welcome to Eurobricks! I look forward to seeing your town when it is re-built. *sweet*

Snow scouts? X-D

Welcome to Eurobricks! *sweet* Force powers eh? Where do you live? I have this Lego piece that fell behind a cupboard and I just can't reach it. :'-(

Welcome to Eurobricks! *sweet* Oddly we don't seem to have a lot of French regulars here any more... :'-( Do you know xwingyoda personally? I wouldn't worry about having bad English; you seem OK to me.

Errr.... no. As Brikbitz said on his site in the 7732 postal plane review... I was wondering if it is the old or new type. How did you find out the price? If you are right then this is a must buy! *wub*

Thanks for the photos and review Brickmaster. I'm hoping to find this on sale as well... no luck so far. I love the white ship, and I think the base would be amusing, but ultimately hard to re-use. Incidentally, that long axel is common in recent technic sets, but I think it was orignally made for the hockey sets. :-D

Indeed it is pretty cool. That guy has a lot of very impressive mechs in his folder. *wub*

Thanks for the review PSPguy. I think this is a very nice little chopper... but the biggest reason why I will probably get this is for the handcuffs! :-D Are the side windows flush like the old ones or recessed like the new ones are supposed to me? (The look recessed to me. :-/ ) Yes, you're right. ;-)

Thanks for the pictures. I may have to get this one to add to my orange. *sweet* Well most people don't run screens at that res. I run both of mine at 1280x1024 and I think that the average still is 1024x768. Even so, I think people should limit image sizes to 800x600 or less. I tend to go for 650x488 myself. This is for a few reasons; You really don't need images greater than 650 in most cases It takes less time to load For many it is a good size for their screen

Call me a mindless fanboy, but I actually believe them. :-$ If they weighed them in the bags it would be quite accurate. I have weighed sets before using kitchen scales and found the variance is extreamely low. Even so, I do agree that it is odd that in the 80s this used to never happen, but today it is relatively common. I still have never had a missing piece myself and I have bought around 200 sets in recent times. (Several times I thought I was missing a piece, but every time so far it has come down to incorrect assembly or not checking the box, bag or floor well enough.) I have however had wrong colours (2 black train wheels in my 7897) and broken parts (motor in 8421). Both replaced with extras.

The checkers and dominos sets have turned up in K-Mart in Australia for $25. Not very compelling for me though. :-/

Why are you even making this post? If you want to go, then just go... or do you need us to hold your hand for that too? :-| Hobbes is not rude or obnoxious and he was right; there are plenty of shots on Brickshelf, as well as in catalogs, for example look here. As my great grandmother said, "Ask not what Eurobricks can do for you, but what you can do for Eurobricks." When you grow up, feel free to come back.

You have got me worried now; mine is arriving any day now. I hope that I have better luck. 8-|

I completely agree. It's why I doubt that Lego will replace them. They determined that kids want lots of bad guys, so they make lots of bad guys... Lame bad guys yes, but Lego do playtest these things so the kids concerned must have thought they were good enough. Once again though, the aliens don't bother me. I love the Mars Mission line.

I have a digital copy of most instructions and I was browsing though them one day and I was stunned to see this... expecially since I don't think it came down to Australia. I love it, and I really want that radio! :-P Thanks for the review AgentRick57. *sweet*

This line could have lasted a bit longer. :-/ Big Ugly Rock Pieces. Such as...

Well that is simply stunning! *wub* I love that technique. What can't be seen from that pic is that it has water inside. :-P Oddly though I can't see any steam trains in your layout... X-D (I did find a few in your folder though.)

Doesn't matter. All that matters is that I made the cut. *sweet* Thanks Joey! :'-) I just use cut and paste with Paint. That's how I did the Household items competition one. The impressive thing is that he typed that all out from memory. ;-)
