    I haven't really given a ton of thought to Hurt's Doctor yet. I don't know that I've looked at him enough to really have a feel for torso or hair piece. For his head you'll need an "elderly" looking head, preferably with a beard. Hurt wears a van dyke in character, and I'm not aware off hand of any older looking heads that sport a van dyke. Where his hair is sort of upswept, though, you could almost use the same hair piece you use for the Tenth, if it were available in gray, which I do not believe it is. We definitely have a new puzzle on our hands, and a bit earlier than we expected to have to start dealing with Capaldi.

    Awesome car! I'd be pretty happy to make a couple in different colors.

    Here are some Doctor Who minifigs I've put together, mostly purist with a few Character Building accessories here and there, plus the Character Building TARDIS The Second Doctor with Jamie McCrimmon: The Third Doctor with Sarah Jane Smith and the Master: The Fourth Doctor with the Second Romana and K-9: The Sixth Doctor with Peri Brown: The Ninth Doctor with Captain Jack Harkness and Rose Tyler: The Tenth Doctor with Captain Jack and Rose:

    It looks like this torso. I'm having a hard time choosing a torso for a minifigure of the 11th Doctor. The one you chose calls to mind that Western episode. He needs a Stetson. Stetsons are cool.

    Beautiful cars! All so distinctive, realistic and wonderfully scaled.

    That's a strong update of an older set.
  8. Luke Styer
    That's one gorgeous building you have there!

    I'm have to buck the trend here and say that I prefer the second version, though both are very cool designs.

    I love that pic of the white-eyed Turtles. There's been something that I couldn't quite put my finger on that didn't look right to me about these minifigs, and now seeing that, I think it may be the eyes. So I'm joining you in hoping we get white-eyed variants.

    My vote goes to Green Lantern because I love how you "brick built" his emblem.

    Looks great. I think it's interesting how you put the mohawks on the double sided faces. It works much better than I would have expected with face with the red warpaint. I would be interested in a better look at the back of the figure with Tonto's face.

    Love both cars. I always like to see the same basic car design executed in two different color schemes. It just makes it feel more "real" to me.

    I like it. I hadn't paid any attention to MBA 7, but you've certainly inspired me to look it up.

    Excellent! Thank you for sharing.
  16. Luke Styer
    That is amazing. Wonderful piece!

    Excellent MOC overall, but I want to particularly call out those parking meters, a small detail that really adds to the verisimilitude. The building facade is really great as well. I wouldn't mind seeing it expanded into a full-fledged building.

    Awesome MOC. I love that it works both as a structure and as a "scene."

    Thanks for the great review. I was already leading toward buying this set, but your photos have nonetheless encouraged me.

    From straight on I'm sure it wouldn't always even be all that obvious you were mixing. From other angles, it would show up more, of course. For my part, I only have one actual Modular set, but I have rebuilt my three CITY buildings into the modular standard.

    "Ultimate" Nick Fury is kind of a weird case because even in the comics, even before the Avengers movies were shooting, the character was drawn, apparently with permission, with Samuel L. Jackson's likeness. I've not watched enough of the cartoon to tell to what degree Jackson's likeness is used.

    If true that's only fair considering Nite Owl was, in turn, "inspired" by Batman. Also, even if that particular costume variation was in someone's mind when the notion of an arctic suit for Batman in this particular LEGO set, I find it pretty hard to believe that Batman never appeared in a white variation on his costume in the 40 plus years between his introduction and the publication of Watchmen. Variant costumes were a staple of Silver Age DC comics in general. I eventually picked up this set, and I thought the Bat Boat was a fun build, though I agree that the yellow highlights are a little odd. I suppose the yellow oval sort of makes yellow a more sensible highlight color than the blue of the Tumbler set, but I still wish LEGO had stuck more with black and grey. I almost immediately let Aquaman out of the ice block and put Captain America in.

    This is a very fun modification. I don't recall if I asked how many copies of the set it took.
  24. Luke Styer
    More likely it means he'd face some kind of legal liability if he refuses to appear in the movie. U.S. courts rarely enforce employment contacts by forcing someone to work. That skirts a little close to slavery.

    Great set, especially for the price point. I'd have preferred more "traditional" Cap colors for the minifigure, but it was clearly the movie version, so I won't fault it for that. I will fault it a bit for the maroon motorcycle. I ended up trading in the red motorcycle from the City fire motorcycle set. For what it's worth, I would vote to keep Marvel and DC threads separate. I think there's such a thing as cramming too much into one thread. When a thread gets to a certain size it can look a little unwelcoming. And the Marvel and DC lines are technically distinct anyway, so that seems like a logical division for the threads to follow.
