Indeed! 8-

Welcome to Eurobricks. I doubt we will see you that much, you being a stealthy Ninja and all. X-D Can you tell us more about you, or does that break your Ninja code?

As I told you earlier I would love to enter this contest, but Sir Dillon might have a point; could you delay this until after the City contest? 8-| I think you will get more entries then. Additionally, I think you should clarify if decals/stickers are allowed. Other than those whinges, good idea! *sweet*

I think this is better idea, but as Hinckley says, it really is too specific and I have no interest in making a robot base either. As you know there was a competition only a few months ago similar to this and it ended up with only one entry. What would I enter? Not many Exo-Force ones unfortunately. I probably would go for a completely open-ended "build a mech with under 750 parts" competition though as I do have one Exo-Force MOC in mind, but I already have promised an entry for the Firetruck contest. The problem is that I don't have a lot of time, so excluding Vigs, I am not going to enter a competition unless I plan to keep what I make.

Ahghghhh, I feel like I have been shrunk.... and welcome to Eurobricks!

Happy Birthday! Nice train. Is that the ICE train?

You're right, I wasn't seeing the big picture. Well I have already bought him a Mosaic set so I am halfway there already. I better get training tomorrow. Thanks for the tips. ;-)

Don't stress. I was going to reply, but I decided to ignore him. I think he is just trying to get a rise out of you. If my son could assemble anything that complicated at 4 I wouldn't be just boasting about it, I would send him to a circus! X-D

Welcome to Eurobricks! Can you tell us where you live?

I like it. Are you planning any more in the same theme? I especially love the ATBV. *sweet*

I'd like to see that! :-D Really? I would buy that if Lego released that. It would be a dream come true.... *wub*

I largely agree. That's why it could be my first and last. I wanted at least one so I would have it on hand for torture or similar. (I do this a lot. My Harry Potter lives in the bubble of my Shadow Crawler!) I do like the large orange wheels though.

I bought my first and possibly last Mars Mission set; 7695. I wanted to have at least one of the figs. Buying any of the others will depend on sales, but I do love the 6 wheeled rover.... Great find. Very optimistic parents. 8-| I paid full price for mine at S@H as it never turned up down here at all, and I still think it was worth it. I found it slightly on sale six months later.

I was browsing though my collection of digital instructions the other day (I have over 2000) and I ran into the cool whistle controlled train from 68/69. For those, like me, who have never heard of it, I mean this one; Aside from sharing this with the fun fellows at Eurobricks, I wanted to know if anyone has actually seen one of these working. If so, how good were they? Should I sell my soul and try and get one? It is interesting that Lego, even in the late 60s, were trying to add electronics to their toys.

Supposedly the wharf has sold well (I got one) and Lego plan more, so a Coast Guard set or two is possible. *sweet* As for the seaplane, I think I will just try to make something similar...

Tell me where it is? I must know. 8-

For the lazy types, here is a preview. Looks like the Alien! Cool! *wub*

Well, it was my house and I will make sure that it is rebuilt better. :-P

I can't see a problem with that as who would want it unless they already liked him! :-P

Thanks for the review! This set is not on my ful price buy list as I want the Monster Dino and the Bulldozer, but it does have some interesting parts in it. As for the 3D part, aside from the laugh value, I can't see any real advantage in it. How did you do it anyway? I'm not surprised. I am making a Ferris Wheel and I direct geared it. I don't reccomend it; it grinds the gears too much! :'-(

Any chance of you changing the rules and time frame? I would love an Exo-Force contest, but the time is way too tight and I hate the Bad Guy Vehicle set concept. I can make a poll for you when the time comes though...

Happy birthdays!
