  1. But is it not better than its predecessors' noses? Yeah, we haven't had an updated Lando in a long time.
  2. Ahh. Maybe you could view it on a desktop computer
  3. I will post some of my MOCs once I get my brickshelf account. It's taking forever to send me my verification link.

    Stay tuned! :wink:

      UPDATE: Brickshelf never sent me a verification link. I am using photobucket now.

  4. Um, it's right there in a youtube video above my review. If it didn't load properly, here it is again: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S3a5j8PgQxg
  5. Oh no. I'd definitely prefer one where it is on the wing. Having it in the center is the wrong type of Jedi Starfighter
  6. Haha, woops, I meant "But you can see the whole ship when you have it in LEGO." Having just the head on top and merely a thin plate beneath it would look out of proportions. I'm okay with it staying, as long as there aren't new sets based on it.
  7. That's because you can't see the underside in the movie. But you can see the whole ship in the movie. Anyway, is Tracker I supposed to be like a Freemaker Adventures TIE Defender? And WTH is Arrowhead? Have these appeared in The Freemaker Adventures yet? (Sorry, not an expert on the show)
  8. Also, we need a new version of this! Especially after the rumor turned out to be false
  9. HELP! How do I insert tags when I start a topic? I was able to insert them on my first topic I created, but afterwards I forgot how, and can't find a space to insert them.
  10. Hello everyone! The Star Wars Holiday Special is extremely notorious among the Star Wars community. George Lucas said that if he had the time and a sledgehammer, he would destroy every copy of it. Having never seen it before, I set out to watch it, to determine whether or not it actually is that bad. If you want to watch it, here it is: So here, in bullet points, are my thoughts about it. The opening: lots of Wookiee grunts, but no subtitles, so we practically have no way of understanding it (aside from the context of their actions). Really? The exterior shots of the Wookiee's home is incredibly fake when compared to the interior. Chewbacca's family is really weird. Itchy (full name Attichitcuk) and Malla (full name Mallatobuck) are very strange. However, it must be said that I do kinda like Lumpy (full name Lumpawarrump), and the way he acts does resemble a little kid. Though their nicknames are extremely cringey. I feel one of the main faults of the special was that they spent too much time on unnecessary portions, including the cooking show, Itchy's show, the Jefferson Starship music video, Lumpy's cartoon, and the Tatooine bar scene. These should only have made brief appearances and could even have been left out. One part that lacks logic is Lumpy's cartoon. Yeah, it did introduce Boba Fett, but who watches cartoons about the Rebellion when the Empire is literally in your house? Saun Dann is quite a funny character, especially when he talks so much to distract the Imperials. The part at which they defeated the Imperials seemed rather strange. The Imperial Officer, Navy Trooper, and Stormtrooper just left without questioning anything, and the remaining Stormtrooper's behavior was truly strange. Given how ruthless the Empire is, I think he would have used his blaster instead of just chasing Lumpy around. The ending of the Holiday Special seemed pretty stupid to me. So, is it bad? Yes. But is it "the worst thing in the world", the way that Star Wars fans treat it? No. Overall, I'd rate the Holiday Special a 2/5. Terrible, yes, but not the worst thing that could smite a film franchise.
  11. Strange, why are there two?
  12. The Importance of Being Earnest (1986 version). Also, if this counts, I watched it lately too:
  13. I always prefer ships with astromech sockets. It'd be better for kids to play with too. Just an astromech head with nothing beneath it looks even sillier in my opinion.
  14. What I don't like is people who do 1 offtopic post get treated as harshly as those who do, say, 10, when the mods do a mass cleanup of an offtopic thread. Also, if the chamber is supposed to be a discussion with the mods, why is it that I am always talking with the same moderator? Who happens to be in the opposite timezone from me? And no other mods join the conversation?
  15. Yeah, I can't see it either. Presumably it has the Hovertank on it.
  16. How are they going to do it? You'd end up with a headless astromech. Unless they use the 2014 V-wing style and come with an extra astromech droid head.
  17. Space battles?? The TIE Strikers are atmospheric patrol craft. I'm 90% sure all the TIE Strikers on Scarif were flying with their wings down (at least those I saw).
  18. Wow. I didn't know that Jar Jar Binks was a Knight of Ren :wink:

  19. Quick question: I want to buy a $19.99 set for a kid. Duel on Naboo is already owned. Which is an easier build (I want to get the easier one): Yoda's Jedi Starfighter OR Luke's Landspeeder?
  20. Ok, then, for everyone to see: The Star Wars LEGO sets will be available in North America in March. All settled.
  21. Canon starfighter model? Well do you mean that the 2002 Starfighter merely included an astromech head? The same occurred with 2005's Interceptors. I think it's just an old technique used by designers.
  22. Ahh interesting, I see it. However it seems like LEGO messed up then, as they put it as wing-up = flight mode, wing-down = landing mode.
  23. Yeah, but we all know that LEGO likes to add astromech droid sockets for playability and an extra minifigure. Also the minifigure list lists an astromech droid.
