Shadows

Herself?

Indeed they are. You know, it's only natural that I would love breakfast foods so much, considering my line of work. Speaking of which ... You most certainly may. Exciting? Oh yes, most exciting, I'm in toaster sales. Yes, the flagship of any kitchen is it's toaster, why I could go on for hours discussing the merits of the glorious toaster. One time, a toaster saved my life, you know.

Most everything has been covered, but I will say this... smaller boxes actually offer more protection. The vast majority of box damage I see is from large flat areas being dented in by other things placed on them. With a smaller box, the odds of that happening is much lower. So, as everyone has said, it's pure marketing and nothing more. It is my single largest gripe with TLG. A prime example is set 5970. It's a $10 set, but it's in a bigger box than the old $10 sets, giving the impression it'll be something more like $15, but once you get inside you realise it's 1/4 full, tops. It could easily fit in a $5.99 box and that would reduce packaging, shipping, and printing costs. It's all about marketing it as something more than it really is.

How about Hellanor's tongue?

You always know where my hand is.

I could go for some pancakes, I guess. Could probably use some strong coffee to get the day started, then we need to get down to figuring out what we know and stopping these people who would destroy us. Admitting you think like a psychopath, eh?

Oh my, what a day to sleep in late, so much has happened and so many things have been said. I am saddened to see so many allegations being thrown around so quickly before we've had a chance to do any investigating. I hope some of it is based in fact and not just idle speculation, as we can't afford to make the kinds of mistakes that come from that. What? Sorry, I'm Shawn Imperante, I am a local businessman and have always wanted to run for town council and help keep law and order, but I'm just not that politically minded. Maybe I can do my part by helping catch the scum responsible for all of this horror. I'm very sorry for your loss, Robert. Is there anything you can tell us about your wife that might indicate why she would be the victim of such violence?

If I'd known it was going to be that kind of party ... Oh, right, ladder. Those are usually outside in sheds or lying on the ground where idiots can trip on them. Maybe we could send Jethro out.

Awwwww.... let's get this door open so we can run up those rickety stairs too!

He's in Wellington? I'll have to keep that in mind.

45% minifig body parts (torsos, legs, heads and hair) 25% accessories for the upper and lower part (I know... ) 15% food 15% windows and doors OR! Anything in rare colours.

You're going to be a very popular girl.

What was misprinted? Can you take pics? It would be unusual to get two misprinted parts so quickly in different sets, but there could be a widespread problem that would need to be reported, so letting us know what it was might help to confirm that. If that was the case, they've probably had a lot of complaints already and wouldn't be surprised.

Ah, something for me. Time to pick the lock and then let Brakes slide it open while I stand reassuringly nearby.

Would one of you just go in? Geez! *runs in the building recklessly, dragging Brakes along by the hand*

Plus Fabuland did have stories and background information in every instruction booklet.

Pretty much it. You can post in the buy/sell/trade/finds forum asking for people offering any, but it's rare.

Hello all, I'm Shawn Imperante, the outraged businessman. I can't believe what has happened and demand justice! Until then ... Seems I'm not either, baby.

I'd love to, Florence, but you know how it is, I can't get away from the restaurant for that long. Don't forget me when you're there... *cough* promos *cough* special stuff *cough*

Ok, if you kids are done playing with your organs, let's see if we can get somewhere before dark. Wow. That's one serious moc. Let's go in there for shelter and see if we can find anything at the same time.

I can't, I don't know who I am yet!

Just stupid threads. Don't let this become one or I'll have to pound the life out of it.

And hallucinating.

You're imagining the whole thing.

We were tricked onto the train by an invitation to travel with and protect Miss Thornton and her 'valuable possession', then she didn't arrive and no one knew anything about what this item was even supposed to be. Along the way, we were forced to stop at this hellhole where we've uncovered some kind of mysterious goings-on, and then the person we think was helping give those clues was murdered on the train while we were off chasing them down. So what are we really doing now? Are we trying to solve a murder or just get the hell out of this place? Are we actively doing anything that leads us in either direction, or are we just eating up scenery and time as we slowly descend into madness? I think it's time we list what we know, what we don't know, and what we're trying to do.
