LEGO Star Wars: The Padawan Menace TV Special
Final Exit replied to Brickdoctor's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Calm down, there isn't anything there impossible. look at the top of the new falcons cockpit corridor, those could be side mounted to make the rounded parts on the front side, pretty sure Lego make new parts when they have a need anyway. -
LEGO Star Wars: The Padawan Menace TV Special
Final Exit replied to Brickdoctor's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I think it could happen, the midi range has huge possibilities, you can only do so many remakes of the existing sets and as you see from the reaction over the net to the new falcon for instance, fans get a bit upset, I'd love a full midi fleet -

There did seem to be a lot of possibilities for future sets, and features for upgrades in it. -
I got that with my Falcon

"You've never heard of the Millennium Falcon?…It's the ship that made the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs." ―Han Solo Set name: Millenium Falcon Set number: 7965 Year of release: 2011 Price: £130 / US $139.99 / € 149.99 Parts: 1238 Minifigures: 6, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, Han Solo, Chewbacca, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Darth Vader. Lego.Wikia Description Exterior: The exterior of the Millennium Falcon features a cylindrical cockpit mounted to a slanted wall attached to the main body leading to a long cylindric tube reaching to the large gun turret. All around the main body of the large space ship are 12 long slanted tiles serving as the sloped look, and are able to be flipped up for playing within. To the second slanted tiles at the right side is a small turnable dish. right after the third slanted tile is a short cylindric tube with two round, flat tiles serving as vents. To the third slanted tiles after the tube are small dishes serving as the large vents, among as the other two slanted tiles afterwards. Interior: At the front of the interior of the ship are slopes to let the front tile set down on, leading to the middle turret are two seats set down next to two computers. To the right from looking at the front of the interior are four seats set next to the "Dejarik" board. Following further after the board and seats is a hiding compartment to lay in a minifigure which can later be dropped out. to the left of the hiding compartment is a gun turret that can fit in a minifigure while turning 360 degrees. Far too many spare parts, I need to check to see there aren't bits missed... New to me Construction is really quite good, its the first set I have really enjoyed making for some time, It wasn't the hurried job to get it finished, I usually experience. Nothing surprising or unusual to the construction and the only sticking points are the top sections of the hull and the outside sections that form the sides, these get a bit repetitive, nothing seriously annoying though. This version of the Millenium Falcon is more of a Play-set, something obvious when you look at the profile of the ship, its very flat base making it perfect for outfitting the inside (I will get my old version out and compare the two of them side by side, but this one seems more pronounced than the older incarnation, I'll update the pics once I have them together) Ratings Minifigures: the six figures are nice but unoriginal, Luke and Leia have double sided heads, but thats about the only think mentionable, it would have been nice to have R2 and 3PO in here but by now everyone must have a good few sets of them in their collection so not a big pain. 7/10 Parts: Grey, lots of grey / Gray, lots of tray depending on where you are located there are plenty of parts, nothing overly special, just a couple of nice parts, canopy being the big one, the above white part is new to me. 7/10 Design: I think the design of this falcon while not a UCS challenger by a long chalk it is really good, the way its been made to be very play set like is great 9/10 Playability: This set is perfect for playing, the whole of the inside is open and its pretty well detailed, but has lots of scope for modification, I think its close to the Alien Conquest HQ in terms of playability. 9/10 Price: it is a Star Wars set so it is marked up due to licence but It's a great set and a good size so I'd say its about right 8/10 Overall: 40/50 Yes, pics from the bathroom Hi-Res pics here

How open are you about your Lego passion?
Final Exit replied to Fugazi's topic in General LEGO Discussion
I'm pretty open, I don't hide it. In fact the more know the more "come out" as being adult fans -

The Eurobricks Reviewers Academy
Final Exit replied to Bonaparte's topic in Forum Information and Help
Hello I'm Dave from the UK, recently turned 7. 37 that is. I have a great many sets going back as far as the early 80s I think, if not earlier and an ever growing collection of new ones. I have a decent camera and I've put a few reviews on here in the Sci-Fi forum with the pictures. I have plenty of time and I'd love to be able to make better reviews and help the the people here and forum. -
I've always loved the pirates theme and having missed out on the pirate ships I made sure I got one once I had money of my own seeing that Lego had Pirates Of The Caribbean licence I was really looking forward to the sets, but now I've seen the sets and more importantly the prices I'm less than happy, money isn't really a problem but these sets feel very much like a massive rip off, skipped them all so far and bought the whole Alien Conquest theme instead.
-
I know what you mean, the camera and a camera man should have been in the set, not a huge addition but it would have rounded the set off perfectly, shame, maybe next series
-
Yeah, it really should have been a fresh set of figures, rather than a reissue of ones already in the current range.
-
The sound brick in this set and the light brick in the abduction set both use small watch batteries that are inside the brick, pretty neat and tidy.
