  1. The movie did really well so I don't get your explanation. I think retailers have sales to drive the market. Like the Walmart where I live has discounted lego all the time including ninjago, nexo knights, city, DC, and Marvel. So I don't think you can tell just by them going on sale. A lot of stores around me have sales on different themes.
  2. This is awesome. I love the landscaping especially the trees and the oasis itself. The fort is really neat. I like the color of the fort. The desert looks fantastic overall wonderful job.
  3. Nice cottage. I like the roof and the texturing of the walls. I think the light blue is and interesting color choice. I also like the landscaping and the vine on the cottage. Great job.
  4. Neat little scene. I like the cattails and the water. Nicely done
  5. Lego elves is doing fine and I wouldn't say chima was a complete fail. Only time will tell or an official statement from lego will tell us when NK is ending. I personally like the theme. It had some interesting builds and great minifigs. But to each his own and hopefully the next theme is something exciting.
  6. I think the figs are great. They may or may not be inaccurate we haven't seen the movie yet. I'm just excited to get Thor sets this year. I wish they had made sets from the dark world but I'm glad we are getting what we are getting. Some of the figs could've been based on concept art so I think everyone can just chill and create their own more accurate versions by customizing the figures themselves because isn't that what lego is all about having fun and building your own creations too. I mean its not the first time we've had inaccurate figures from movies.
  7. I don't understand your comments. Whitefangs review is just fine its his style and that's what makes it unique. Whitefangs reviews are fun they have all those set-ups with similar style figs. I understand its your opinion but this is a site about lego which is supposed to be a fun hobby. Plus Whitefang has been doing it for years. It just sounds like your post is really off-putting. Anyways Whitefang keep up the great work your reviews are fun.
  8. I think this is very cool. I love the cottage and the roof is really nice. I really like the windows and the gold part above the door is interesting. The landscaping is good.
  9. That headpiece looks fantastic. The fig looks good too. Thanks for the info on the rubberized piece.
  10. Neat story. The builds are great. I especially like the gatehouse and the battle scene. Wonderful job on the exploding camel. Your camera work is really good. I like the way you photographed the bar scene. Keep up the great work.
  11. I really like this. The landscaping is great and the house is fantastic. I really like your choice of colors. great job.
  12. Nice little scene. I like the roof and the tree with the vultures is great. Nice job
  13. There is no castle theme out now so obviously no they wouldn't be designing them. The designers probably design things all the time that get shot down or have to tweak them to fit into a certain theme. Its ok to take a break sometimes. Everyone was really disappointed by the last castle wave and now that we don't have one everyone complains that there is no castle. I think that in time Lego will have a new castle theme and they are probably already designing and creating things for it now. I think everything will be fine just give it some time.
  14. Nexo knights is slated for 3 years and apparently is doing well. I don't think lego is trolling us with the nods to old school castle sets I think you guys are reading way to much into things.
  15. I agree the green really looks great on the house. The house is very unique. I like the balcony. The forge is nice. The minifigs are fantastic. Great job.
  16. Tiki warrior the mask and the printing is fantastic.
  17. The Bear is great. The wall is fantastic, I love the texturing of it. I especially like the door on the wall. The small building is creative and the cobblestone floor is neat. I like the story as well.
  18. Nice build. I like the look of the wagon and the ballista on the back is nicely done. It looks like it will do a lot of damage in battle. I like the landscaping and rockwork too.
  19. I like the tower. The battering ram is good and I like the path. Wish there were more pictures to show different angles but not to shabby.
  20. Nice scene. I like the way you did the floors. The battering ram is cool and your figures are interesting.
  21. Nice little scene. The landscaping is wonderful. I really like the water effect and the flowers. The figs are great too and nice story.
  22. I also voted for the zombie pirate. I just think he had great printing over the rest in the group. Plus zombies are always cool.
  23. I think you have to take into account that back in the 80's and 90's castle minifigs had limited printing and no armor printing where as today everything is very detailed with printing the armor on knights is printed like the cmf good knight and the frightening knight. Several of the kingdoms knights had printed armor and torsos. And the heads have more details with the eyes and facial expressions and facial hair. Some figs even have dual sided heads so figs are more expensive to make. I personally think the minifigs today are excellent compared to the ones from the 80's and 90's.I But yes I do agree with you that Lego knows what they are doing as far as minifig distribution. They know people like to collect them and therefore make the exclusive ones in expensive sets so people spend more. When it comes to kids my kids love playing with their figs and changing them around and mixing up the parts so I don't think lego expects kids to not just collect them. My kids haven't had issues with quality but I have had an issue with one of the cmf where the face just came off when I touched it. I do have more issues with arms cracking. Those have been my only issues so far. But that's my 2 cents.
