Wow, what a fantastic Mafia game! Thank you, JimB, for hosting it! As I'd already stated in the Confirmation and Discussion thread a couple days ago, I had a lot of fun trying to figure who was who. After Quarryman was lynched, I thought that the last Rouge was either Rufus or Whitefang; I thought the sword killer was either Alopex or Admiral Ron, and I thought "Gary Coleman" was either Rick, Inky, or Eskallon.

Well, there's not much else we can do, is there?

It's so hard to wait!

Man, JimB, this game has been a lot of fun to follow! I've especially enjoyed trying to de-cypher who was and wasn't a Rouge. Can't wait until the conclusion is posted, I'd really like to see what everyone's role was.

Yeah, sorry that my entry is a bit late. I understand if it isn't accepted.

FOUR pirates afloat for FOUR days and FOUR nights. Four Pirates Afloat on Brickshelf (when moderated)

Yeah, unfortunately, I think you're right about those prices. But a LEGO fan can hope, right?

No, I know that was what he was asking; I just didn't phrase it well.

It's a Geonosian drone. There are two types of Geonosians, the wingless drones and the winged warriors/aristocracy.

Thanks for the pics, prateek! Those Pod Racers are looking better by the minute!

I, for one, would love a Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic theme! Escape from the Endar Spire: $5.99 USD It could include Carth Onasi an escape pod similar to the one in 7106. The Tainted Grove: $14.99 USD It could include a small, brick-built grove (12x12 maybe?), Juhani, and a Kath Hound. The Hrakert Rift: $19.99 USD It could have a Star Map, various Kolto harvesting machines, two Selkath (with new head molds! ), and Revan in an Environment Suit. Taris Swoop Race: $29.99 USD It could include Revan's swoop bike, an announcers booth, two Black Vulkars, a Duros race announcer, and Revan The Shadowlands: $29.99 USD It could include three trees, Jolee Bindo's hut, Jolee Bindo, two Wookies, and Revan. Krayt Dragon Encounter: $39.99 USD It could have a Krayt Dragon, a small cave-like structure, a Bantha, a Tusken Raider, Bastila, Komad Fortuna, and HK-47. The Ebon Hawk: $99.99 USD It could include the Ebon Hawk, Darth Revan (in the Star Forge robes), Carth Onasi, Bastila, T3-M4, Canderous Ordo, Mission Vao, and Zaalbar. Sith Trooper Battle Pack: $11.99 USD It could have 3 normal Sith Troopers, one "elite" red Sith Trooper, and a small carrier vehicle. Republic Battle Pack: $11.99 USD It could have 4 normal Republic Troopers and a small carrier vehicle sort of similar to the one in the Hoth Rebel Battle Pack. Well, there's my two cents!

I watched the 1931 production of Dracula based off of Bram Stoker's novel today. Now I have some great ideas for vampire-themed MOCs!

EDIT: Sorry for the double post, my browser was lagging, so I accidently clicked the "post" button twice. Could a Mod or an Admin please remove this post?

Wait- seriously? I knew that Nolan was making a third movie, but I didn't know that Bane and Catwoman were in it. I honestly must say that I'm disappointed with that, I was really hoping for a Johnny Depp Riddler. He was one of the convicts that Crane (Scarecrow) had moved to Arkham.

Yeah, Breaking Benjamin's great. And yes, EB's server was down for about 5 hours. I don't know why; prateek says that it happened about this time last year too.

I have. But honestly, after seeing Panaka's hat on Qui-Gon, I'm not suprised.

The Sensei Wu white/black robes thing is probably just a preliminary mistake. I don't mind not getting Jay and Cole, because those guys are available in cheaper sets (Skull Motorbike and Ninja Training Outpost), but I'm not too fond of the fact that the only skeletons we get are the ones with the "weird" heads.

Thanks, Walter! A snack is just what I need while I watch Werewolf Mafia.

:laugh: Those sets look phenomenal! I suppose it's understandable that the Earth Dragon is $35 US; it probably has more pieces than the Ice Dragon, not to mention the "weird" skeleton head mold. Mountain Shrine and Blacksmith Shop are both very nice, but I really don't see what use I would have for them. The star of this summer is the Fire Temple. It's got a solid piece count, and (I'm pretty sure) all of the Ninjago minifigures, as well a new Fire Dragon. I wasn't expecting much of an interior, so I was suprised to see training equipment and sushi. To sum up my thoughts, the Ninjago Fire Temple deserves two thumbs up. :thumbup:

Those sets look amazing! The Geonosian Starfighter looks like a good ship, but the minifigures have really improved! Ki-Adi-Mundi's head looks a lot more natural than it did during the preliminary stage, and the Geonosian looks extremely accurate! The Millennium Falcon is even more attractive than before! I love what I've seen of the interior, and Luke's double sided training head is . The only thing I'm not happy about for this set is Leia's new hair. I can't wait until FBTB starts their coverage!

No, I am very happy that they brought back Ninja, and they made it very unique and imaginative. However, I am not made of money. I can't just walk into a store and buy something without worrying about the price. I'm simply disappointed that the Fire Temple had to be so much; I will probably end up getting it, but it will take away from my purchases of LEGO Kingdoms, and Alien Conquest, and vintage Wild West sets, etc. Secondly, I am not complaining. I am just suprised about the high price and I'm expressing my honest opinion about it. If anyone's complaining, it's you. You're complaining about the fact that we aren't perfectly happy with the prices of the new Ninjago line.

I suppose you're right. For 6 minifigures and 7 animals that is a fair enough price. I was simply looking at the cart and the two buildings, so it makes since that I thought the price was too high.

Wow, those are high prices. $120 USD for the Fire Temple? My wallet is going to be hurtin' after this summer! But really, we've been seeing a lot of inflation this year, first with the Mill Village Raid from Kingdoms being $70, now this!
