:-D That's a smart solution which works well. *sweet*

Wow! *wub* We are getting more and more of the talented customisers at EB now. *sweet* That's a great looking coat. Welcome to Eurobricks PrincessAriana!

Ahhh, the old boats were so cute! *wub* Thanks for the nostalgic review! *sweet*

I tend to agree with Johnny 5; the abs are great but probably should be either lighter or thinner. I also agree that the scar tends to blend into the cheek. Perhaps a darker colour? I think this is really good though and it seems incredible that you are a newbie at this. 8-

Sorry for coming to the party late! I'm starting to get the impression that people are trying to highlight that I should have done a mech entry. :-/ First Hinckley does a Fabuland character, to which I whine "but the head is so hard, bla bla bla".... and then you make exactly what I should have done! *wub* Personally, aside from making this look exactly like a Fabuland figure, I think this is perfect, especially your smart choice of weapon. :-D The tusks are a smart solution, and I love the beefy arms and roomy enclosed cockpit. *sweet* The pots are a great idea too! :-P My only complaint is you missed my hat! I did... even though it does show me up as a pathetic untalented whiner. :-$

I believe it has been hidden while the re-sort is underway.

Well, that's proof enough for me. Hopefully CJ will clarify things, possibly here. Thanks for filling me in; I checked the site too but I didn't check the parent site... 8-|

Well everyone is welcome here, and we will never go black!* *sweet* Have fun on EuroBricks! *wub* (What happened to iBricks? conductorjoe who I believe ran the site, is a member here. It was on-line only a few months ago. Why are you so sure it's dead?) *Not an actual guarantee.

Well I see your point... but while a simple layout is great if you want to just randomly browse, it makes it hard if you want to browse set themes. It makes it even harder for people posting; should they post where it is logical, or should they post were some people go to browse.... Ultmately I think the changes are pleasing people who want clarity, and annoying those that prefered the randomness. :-/ You can't please everyone with change, and sorry to say it seems you are one of the annoyed ones. Aside from reversing the changes, do you have any ideas of how to make things more to your liking?

Real aliens. That would be so cool. I think Lego should fund a trip to Alpha Qunataur 23, bring back some real aliens and then shrink them. It would save on printing costs too. :-/ I wouldn't. The topic was only saved because Eurobricks has a great diversity of characters and silly topic are our specialty! :-P The fact that the aliens are exceedingly lame has already been discussed before and nothing will change no matter what any of us say. Lego decided that they wanted a cheap alien and that is what we got. Mars Mission will probably have no life after the the new sets and the jellies will never be seen again. The fact that they have a second wave shows that they sold OK and probably means that instead of a better alien, next time we will get a different lame alien. :-|

Questions? Are there any left to ask? I thought my intro post was long! :-D Welcome to Eurobricks.

Welcome to Eurobricks! Have fun! *wub*

Welcome to Eurobricks! *wub* I'll keep an eye out (maybe even both) for your tabletop town. *sweet*

That's pretty cool! :-D I think that looks perfect actually. My problem was that the walrus has a brown head, and without breaking my MTT I wouldn't have enough. I should confess at this stage that Tom Platz used to be a role model for me. :-$ My perception of correct leg size probably should be ignored! :-P

Oh please don't say that. :'-( If you want to refer to the Aliens designed by H.R. Giger you really should mention them in regard to an actual Alien movie (any in fact; I like them all) , not that travesty... :-X

Maybe you should ask them... *wacko* (It looks like edge detection.)

There was a man who had a pet dog for years, and they were the best of friends. The man fed the dog well, took him for walks, and the dog scared away salesmen for him, and always brought him the paper and his slippers. (No slobber either. ;-) ) One day the man had a headache so he asked his dog to go and get him some pain killers. Since he had no change he gave the dog a $100 dollar note. Hours passed, and the man started to worry. He went to the pharmacy, but the dog was not there. Instead he found him in the pub next door drinking a cold beer. Several empty jugs lay beside. The man was astonished, "What... but... we have been friends for years! I trusted you! How could you do this to me?" "Well", the dog replied, "you have never trusted me with money before."

A few Australian members have noticed 7036 Dwarves Mining in Myer AUD $69.95... and they have a 25% off sale as well. I went looking for it yesterday but was disapointed. :'-(

But I went to the Hobart Myer just for that yesterday and it wasn't there.... :'-( Eitherway, I will repost this news in the sales thread for you.

Sorry, no luck. :'-(

Yesterday I got a PS3! *wub* Boobalishious booty! It makes me want to search for Stupendous Sales.

Great story! I was given two moon plates the other day from a freind of mine who has a quite decent old space collection that he hoards for no good reason... I really should offer to buy it off him. :-D The friend I mentioned above has a space monorail... *wub*

Great review Brickbitz! *wub* (And thanks to you too iamded ;-) ) Thanks also for the detail pictures of the new doors and windows. I really want this set and it's due in Australia any day now.... *sweet* Aside from just wanting the parts, I want this as the design of the main model has some great features; including stairs, the balcony... and the BBQ! :-D

What a great idea! The original version looks so nice... and this looks mean. *wub* The wings look better now, especially without the competition cannon. :-X

Yeah I figured that, but it seems a tad unfair to be doing a Sigfig Mech... of a Mech. It's pretty good! *sweet* It's a shame you forgot.
