Are there any good screenshots of the LSW3 Stun Tank? I like the concept I would like to see you make one that is minorities scale that uses Lego own style guidelines (you need to create a cabin that has a removable top interior space needs to be accounted for... Play value per piece count - use generic pieces for structure must support it's own weight it would be cool to have a zillion beast foot included like the old movie maker set...

Sent Thanks - I was hoping TLG would actually finish the set or combine several aspects together into a UCS Acklay, Nexu, Reek Jango vs Mace, Obi-Won vs Count Dooku, Padme (clawed) vs battle droids Jedi bob in new browns/flesh And maybe another Jedi With 5x geonoshians, SBD, GBD, and 3 Destroyer Droids (v3) -

Muddy replied to XimenaPaulina's topic in LEGO Star Wars
A few years back at SW weekend at Disney (at least if my failing memory serves me right) they had pictures of the prototype Genosis Arena Set - Acklay and Reek The reek was DkRedish with "Tan Princess Cone Heads for horns" The Acklay was articulated in DkBlue booth were pretty good looking Does anybody know where I can find the pictures? I did these draw renders a few years back based off of the picture http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=2614431 They apparently were on display for exactly one day with the other sets - prototype AT-RT and swamp Speeder (version 1 of each) I think they might have had a prototype jabber the hutt on display too... Anyways if you could post a link to the pictures I think everybody would greatly appreciate this rare glimpse Especially considering that SWLego3 just came out highlighting that very battle Whistles and walks away wondering if that set will ever be made... -
Do we even have confirmation that the Hoth Set will be released? I believe the advent sets are released in June Wave usually

Stupid question how often does Lego use "filler" figures in finalized calendars/catalogs/promomaterials I know they do it for preliminary set pictures I don't think Lego changes the mmb after the monthly flyer is out - so one would assume - that the ARF is the figure it just boils down to which one... Are there many arf troopers in Episode 3? I think we determained Waxer, Boil, Trama, Digital Camo from CWM, and the Geonoshishian Variants, trapper I think that is it I can't wait I hate the word "chance" they should say limit first x per time zone/state etc
-
Waxer, Boil, or Trauma Maybe ARF from Movie but doubt it My bet is on one of the two Skycorps ones Edit - autocorrect changed waxer
-
I vote UCS Jabba's Palace We need a rancor DKGreen Garmareans and some twi'leck dancers (we got the head piece) max rebo (we got the elephant ears) It needs to have alot of Minifigs with it ~10+ dang it

Here is a picture of three of the microships - Slave-1, Imperial Shuttle, and A-Wing Slave-1 Micros (Sorry I am missing 1 piece on my Midi Scale, and three pieces on Boba's Slave-1 Mini Here are Comparison pictures of the three Droidikas models I think I did the hard links right... if not go here when the gallerys go public Muddy's Gallery

Duplo Animals vs Normal Lego Believe it or not duplo does not have that many more animals than normal legos Cost is a big factor in Lego selection process - paint schemes are cheaper than new molds - standing cat -> Lioness/Tiger - Horse -> Zebra - Polar Bear -> Brown or Grizzly - Bear (mold 2) -> panda - Whale parts -> Orca Duplo has a giraffe mold (or 6), hippo molds, penguin molds, seal, sheep That really isn't that different given the additions above... I mean the rumor for the next Modular set is that of a "Pet Shop" Play features are part of the focus of the Lego company "play well" So incorporating icebergs for example would be fun or "escape of the monkey's" Duplo Animals vs Normal Lego Believe it or not duplo does not have that many more animals than normal legos Cost is a big factor in Lego selection process - paint schemes are cheaper than new molds - standing cat -> Lioness/Tiger - Horse -> Zebra - Polar Bear -> Brown or Grizzly - Bear (mold 2) -> panda - Whale parts -> Orca Duplo has a giraffe mold (or 6), hippo molds, penguin molds, seal, sheep That really isn't that different given the additions above...

Make the purple motorcycle next! Or the sign Please thank you

I just watched the movie "Big" The focus of the "Transforming Building" scene is the point I want to highlight A zoo has many play features that are more fun than a boat that just floats Just imagine all the cool things you can do Just look at the age upon when kids go to the zoo on school trips ditto with amusement parks Maybe throw them together Imagine the play value of sea world - dolphins jumping through hoops, polar bear fishing for salmon (sandred fish) Imagine creating slides for the penguins to shoot down The tide pool Even impulse sets would be cool Lion tamer? Eagle's nest So many other cool things They should do a cake topper set I so can't believe Lego has not designed a better Lego rose yet - carrot top + 1x1x2/3 round Belleville corner ----- What harbor farm set? I am surprised Lego action themes have not made King Kong, Godzilla, etc yet There are so many cool things they could do with that

Lego City focuses around 8 basic sub themes - Food (Rarely the focus - Pizza, Burger, Ice Cream, etc) - Transportation (Harbor, Spaceport, Airport, Trains, Postal, Etc) - Public Works (Sanitation, Road Repair, Garage, Bank, etc) - Emergency Response (Coast Guard, Police, Fire, Etc.) - Construction (Vertical (bldgs), horizontal (roads) - Entertainment (Sports, racing, movie theater, etc) - Homes/Shops (Rarely the main focus) - Farm (Newest Addition) - although I love the addition of banks, and farms in recent times I want a divergent sub-theme There are so many things they can incorporate into the city They have yet to make a real push for homes, or toward shops like grocery stores (save for the beautiful modial series) I would love to see a Corner Deli, or Toys R'Us, or Grocery Store But that is not what I really want to see The collectiable minifigures have been hinting at going this direction Imagine a Lego Circus... You could have the clown cars, Elephants balancing on balls Dunk the guy Shooting Gallery Etc With the creame-de-la-creame : A circus Train With only minor additions Lego could make this beautiful series Add lions, and giraffes maybe hippos So then wait a little while for follow-up Lego Zoo They should work with Sea World, Columbus Zoo, etc to make the first Non-Duplo Zoo Sea World - would obviously focus on Sea Life They could include Penguins, and polar bear exhibits Mammal Section - Horse repainted as Zebra, reintro Pony Mold, recolor the Bear Mold, there is so much they could do Aviary - Owls, Parrots, Bats... Redeco of Bird as Eagle pattern, Ostrich also reintro the bird in a cage mold but in different colors Reptile Room - Sadly reptiles are less represented than other filliums Alligators, Snakes, an easy turtle is taking a starfish and attaching a 2x2 dish, tortoise could be brick built, a chameleon is easy to make, the Indy whip could be a good start for a snake, and maybe a giant python would be cool to make as well Insects - More implied here termite mound, ants, scorpions, spiders - "bird eating spider" Also there are two "rare" molds of beauterfly and Bettle that could be reintrod in different colors Monkey Buisness - Monkey, Chimpanze (new mf series 5 mold), Ape (Costume) could be used So what divergent sub theme would you like to see? Zoos? Circus? Houses? Shops? More Eateries?

Those who search for treasure Quickly get in over their heads And are soon to be followed by agents of death Undertones when you spill the heart and the sands run out, all you will know is sadness ---------- This is easy I love the hidden message about George Bush that is awesome! How exactly did you know his fate? I mean using the girl diver was subtle...standing in oil, the color references, also only one figure with an accessory aka bludgeoning device otherwise know as a mace - (my) ace - as in up the sleve also a reference to the first bomber jacket - which is also very amusing - you should have used Johnny thunder for the Katrina being redirected from its original path toward Crawford TX...but I don't think ISC is from a country that knows that one... Oops my bad...

Glad this made it on page 43 (as in 43 is an idiot) Okay I have to point this cool little factoid out Okay Cryptography is cool Finding hidden meanings in things Check this out Pivot means to hold one thing in place and move the rest If you pivot ADU With the A being a pivot point You get NDA - which is standard for Non-Disclosure Agreement Basically if you talk about aliens you get the green pet one on your head... Ogggie-Boogie Boo PS there are alot of other cryptic messages hidden in the series see if you can spot them O:-) ;-) Don't talk about them though...or else

Realistically one a year is a perfect pace for these sets Well as much as I want a pet store I to doubt it going that route Downtown American big cities - have banks, drug stores, odd to see cvs as part of a bank bldg Looking at legos previous buildings Here are some possibilities Parking garage - remember the old one? - Bank Movie Theater (doubtful considering main street - which I consider part of this theme as well as winter village series) Office - cubicles and such Dr Office Vet City Garage Car Dealership Post Office TV Station Apartment Complex Hotel/Motel That is all I can think of right now I am hoping for petshop - return of the caged bird... - I want parrot mold as eagle dang it... I guess dream Lego theme would be zoo with each section being a different set Not quite enough animals yet But getting close - need giraffes or something...

Hoping that target has all the polybags for easter on March 8th when I go there Any news on Battle Packs for summer wave? I am hoping Geonoshian (Winged) x2 undead Geonoshian x1 and Sand Red or Dark Orange Battle Droids x2 vs Flame Troopers x1 and Geonoshian Camo clone Troopers x2 w/Commander (Jett) Otherwise I will be buying alot of Geonoshian fighters Re:Mini Vulture Droid 30055 what is the instruction # (it is the number on the instructions that is off to the side that starts with a 4 used to lookup instructions by hand in Legos DB)

I have allmost all SW minifig size and mini size sets in storage... I know I saw the Inverted piece in my inventory and it felt right to use it... I made the "official" Micro Advent A-Wing and Imperial Shuttle Mini's I got to add on there to... I just have school and am looking to go back to work as well... I have most of the pieces for the Mini- Vulture Droid and AAT but I am still missing a few Hopefully I get my package soon so I can fill in the gaps in my inventory... I am trying to rebuild my sets from scratch because I told my ex she could sell what was in storage to pay off the debt forced upon us... (I say force upon because somebody wanted me to work for them and I said no...and they lost the argument... If they would have kept it up I would have to talk about "air inferority" or something like that - don't ask) it is my belief that no country should be able to force ppl to work for them if they are law abiding citizens and just want to live free...Of course George Bush needed to get his megablocks kicked publically and permanently for him to let go... I laugh cause my work was "special" and he wasn't special enough - lol Not everybody working for the US is accountable to the President... Anyways I want to finish my Force Unleashed Advent... Ninjago added alot of pieces to make it look better The new Lightsaber Hilt and the 1x2 with 3 bars pieces A few others too Any suggestions for changing the layout? Anything look out of place? I know photos are not best quality but somebody who I burnt broke my camera in retaliation It still works but only cause I am better at what I did than he was... O:-) Down the drain you go... I can't afford a new camera yet I need to get my car fixed first... It cost alot it seems I feel like I am driving a F-117 except broken down and antiquated But it looks relatively nice...
-
I know here we put in an extra figure if you don't complain we won't take one away from a different set... Actually what I would like to see is Commander Gree, & Commander Bly - maybe they should include them in the FV-7 set (cannon from CW Movie) when it comes out. I am tired of getting the same recycled Commanders There are alot of clones they could make that would sell well especially if coupled with other characters... I am glad we are getting a Commander Wolfe - He needs more screen time!
-
Maybe it is like Luke's hair and was in case not with frigate... (see video) It would be a shame for Wolfe to be the same - I wanted a picture helmet off... Would have been cool to get him in an "out of armor rotation suit" Ki Adi's head seems like a logistics thing cheaper to make helmet than head...ditto with printing the seem is needed because it needs to pop off according to many different rules - see safety laws of a few dozen countries
-
So toynewsi has pictures of all but Sw they have city advent but no Sw advent Update - the City calendar includes a building and even a police cruiser small but minifig%2

Take out a second mortage on your Lego houses Oh wait this economy has gone to pieces...

Isn't this where run DMC got his name? To bad the guy who made them was a drug dealer... Oh well 88 MPH is a great point of reference They used it because of the Paradox of two continuities two parallel infinity signs tipped on their side... Loves pulp culture references that have a boat load of hidden meanings...

I purposely used Mr Crabs for Roron Corob - the sharp contrast was to show just how needed an ithorian head was ditto with R3-S6 (my black Astromechs are in out of state storage)... My camera is an old nikon digital (3 years old the screen is smashed (had a run in with a guy who didn't like to be held accountable for his actions...then he realized what I used to do and ran away to go play in traffic or something...the word is "oversight") ;-) Anyways I am a poor college student (former professional hacker for US Government ... The term advanced communications is probably more appropriate) I gave up everything to do with my previous line of work - it pissed off an assload of ppl who think they are "gods" who only can shoot themselves in the foot if they do anything about it :-p So I can not afford a new camera, I have been focusing on my studies so I can't afford better pieces all the time I am trying to rebuild my collection from scratch.., The US economy sucks... I refuse to clip pieces on the side of bricks it is so unlego like... I love the mini twilight myself Obviously this set took awhile to put together My next set is a force unleashed Advent... You can see the mini models in the folder and my flickr has preliminary stuff... http://www.flickr.com/photos/10092910@N02/sets/ I always prototype first - I am gifted with reverse engineering to hence why you see bagcharms w/o keychains - although I did steal the Millennium Falcon Design when I could not figure out which version actually got released (there are multiple stock photos of different versions out there all with just 1 view) Did you see my theed palace (personally I could have done better but it got 12k hit so far) considering LDraw at the time had parts that were 4 years behind the curve... The minikit cannister and the "tiles" which should be printed LSWVG tiles for Astromechs, Protocol Droids, and Bounty Hunters... The Force Unleashed one is early prototype you can tell by rancor hand not looking right should be new 1x2 plate with angled bars in white - the same as pictures you will see today of the ninjago monster truck launching hand function Obviously proxy was just a preliminary I tried magnaguard torso it strangely gets top heavy with lightsaber and protocol droid head...
