    Now, I haven't even seen Civil War yet (comes out on Friday here in good old America...) but Spider-Man is a pretty glaring omission from Super Hero Airport Battle. If they'd put him in instead of Sharon Carter, that set would be perfect.

    Currently procrastinating doing some English homework. And also procrastinating the (slightly better than English) LDD build of 75098 Assault on Hoth... but mostly the homework.

    They do, and I sometimes post there... but it's completely nuts, and 90% of the content is useless megablocks like fanfics and "Who would win?"-type things.

    I'm seeing Civil War on Sunday with some friends! So excited! (Even though I already know the story... it's a thing I do so I'm not bothered by Youtube trolls and such...)

    A GBC version of an internal combustion engine. Is that even possible? I don't care, it would be awesome.

    The two new boat hulls (found in 2016 City sets Fire Boat and Police Patrol Boat) and a lot of new minifigure parts cannot be dual-colored. Neither can the hourglass. Also, when I was updating some Summer 2015 Ninjago sets, I found that the ghost cloth armor thing (part 20566) and the headgear things (20568 and 21485) meant to go with it cannot be placed on a minifigure at the same time. A gem still cannot be placed in the Pharaoh's Quest staff.

    @ Junior Shark: (sorry I can't quote, I'm using Internet Explorer...) Quite frankly, Umarak the Destroyer is a total mess in my eyes... ugly head, loads of gaps and exposed structural bits. If I get any of the summer sets, it'll be Lava Beast... he actually looks kind of interesting, but he's not exactly good. Toa Ekimu just looks weird with that color imbalance, and the other two beasts are too weird and under-armored to consider. For availability, my Target only has the $20-$25 sets and empty slots for the smaller ones.

    Well, that explains a lot. Any official source on that?

    @Japanbuilder: They're not older model X-Wings. The OT X-Wings are T-65 and the TFA X-Wings are T-70. Personally, I'm wondering how the First Order got the money to convert an entire planet into a bigger Death Star... they seem to be a renegade faction with nowhere near the Empire's resources in the movie.

    OK, thanks! I'll try that. If it works, I'm going to start filling gaps in our "Official Sets Made In LDD" index. EDIT: That didn't help. I think I'll try Chrome, and stop posting until this issue is resolved.

    Wow. That evil castle is just... wow. Can I just say now that this is my new favorite Elves set?
  14. PicnicBasketSam
    That makes sense... hmmm. Maybe somebody should host a contest. Do I hear ReBrick calling?

    Great review WhiteFang! It was a little wordy, but I really love the pictures of wacky situations with the characters. My favorite minifigs of the bunch are Syndrome and Ariel. Now, I haven't seen some of the movies these are based off of, but some of these figures look odd. Maleficent and Buzz are great too... but seeing as they already made a Buzz head, this one looks strange.

    1x2 baby bows in trans colors! That'd be great for headlights and microscale spaceships. Also Kylo Ren's lightsaber blade in solid colors, I can see a lot of potential uses for that.

    There are a few more sets I can think of that connect to other sets. Minecraft sets The Wither and The Nether Fortress can combine. Three Creator sets last year- Cargo Heli, Blue Racer, and Auto Transporter are meant to go together. Same this year with the Chopper Transporter and Ocean Explorer. So an add-on to the Airport Battle wouldn't be unheard of... although perhaps within the Super Heroes theme, it would be.
  18. PicnicBasketSam
    OK... thanks guys. Huh. See, this wouldn't happen if they printed the character names on the box...

    I just joined up for EB yesterday, and I'm having a bit of technical difficulties... I'm on Internet Explorer, and most of the time when I try and post, something glitches out in the middle of typing and bits and pieces of interface start flickering... the cursor line thingy in front of the text I'm typing, and a word gets the "MISSPELLED" red underline put on it while I'm typing. And random characters don't show up when I'm typing. AND I can't upload anything via URL, the dialog box freezes and it will neither do its job nor close. HELP! Oh look, it's happnig an... aghhh! Maybe it hppenswhenI hit th enter key twe... (I intentionally kept that in to show the problem.)

    Well, I'm going against the crowd here... but I don't mind Tahu very much at all. The clashing textures everyone complains about are not that bad, and the color scheme actually works pretty well. He looks good, he's playable (those swords are pretty neat) and he has good pieces. Something doesn't quite work right, I can't tell what... but he's not a bad set at all. Anyway... I think that none of the summer sets are any good.
  21. PicnicBasketSam
    Wait, I'm confused. Do ALL of the City summer sets come out in May, or just the volcano sets and Fun at the Park? That would leave... the airport sets and the $90 gas station. I think it makes more sense to release them all at once, in May.

    I think there's two reasons behind the lack of bloody helmet. One, it's a bit dark for the kids who would buy the X-Wing set. Two, that would be really complicated to print... I dunno how much LEGO could print on a helmet, but still. Also, would you do a minifig hand or a human hand?
  23. PicnicBasketSam
    @Kevkipo I have one, but I can't work out how to upload LXF files... I'm new around here. But I will see what I can do. EDIT: Figured that this would be useful... I have LXF's of almost every 2016 set released so far. As soon as I get this small problem sorted out, I will be fixing some rather large gaps in the index.

    Um... why is Zane gold in the lighthouse set?! Also, there's no new piece on top of the lanterns... or at least, the only lantern I can see, which is in the Ultra Stealth Raider. That's a paint roller.
  25. PicnicBasketSam
    I figured that something would be pushed over to 2017, considering how many D2C sets are coming out this year. Not surprised. Besides, I don't think that TWO Hoth UCS sets in one year would work well.
