  1. So good! Now I want to watch the movie again...
  2. I recommend you to download a Japanese phone app called PlusL. It's a marketplace where people post their instructions for alternative builds using official Lego sets. Being a Japanese app, you can imagine how many amazing mechs they have available. Here's how the app works: people post pictures of their MOCs and others can vote them. If a pic gets enough votes, the creator gets to post the instructions and people can buy them. They are not too expensive and some are totally worth it. Plus they tell you the specific sets you need to buy in order to build what they are showing you. PlusL on iOS PlusL on Android
  3. Hi guys! Extremely sorry for updating this thread so late. New pics at the end of this post, and responding to the last couple of comments: So sorry to leave you waiting for an answer! The head is from the Karl Mordo minifig in (76060) Doctor Strange's Sanctum Sanctorum. I will send you a DM just in case you don't see this response. I know it sucks to ask for help when you're trying to build a minifig and not getting it! Thankee for your kind words, Sai! I am very advanced in the last book (my first read) and I have already built more scenes. I will just link them, because I don't want to spoil anything. I'll say the book they're from and leave the link to my Tumblr. III. The Wastelands Shardik Attacks! V. Wolves of the Calla The Ka-Tet The Wolves Andy (Many other functions) More to come soon!!
  4. @cebelicamya we love you so much for keeping this thread updated! That new hair for Rey looks horrible, at least in that pic and from that angle! But new hair molds always get me excited so I can't wait to see it from different angles. The new hair pieces from the Ninjago Movie are all amazing. Thank god they're not too difficult/expensive to get. Most can be found on the CMF...I think I'm only missin Cole's with the tied bandana.
  5. Two new pictures! The first one is a teaser of the scene I'm currently working on. The second, my way to celebrate that we finally have a trailer for the movie! You know how it goes: "The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed."
  6. I guess it depends on if TLG can or wants to recycle them. I've seen parts be released in CMF series first and recycled in later sets, either in the same color or different ones. For instance, the hair for the Zombie businessman (my favorite hair piece) will be used in one of the villains from the new Ninjago movie in a new color (black). I visited the Lego store in London last week and the staff is so damn sweet. They help you find the minifigs you want! Be sure to ask them...if you want certain figures just tell them they're the ones you're missing and they'll help you. The French guy is extremely easy thanks to the bread and the dog. For the vet you gotta look for the rabbit and the hair piece. And for the chef, she has a hat and a pie.
  7. These sets are outstanding! My main aim is to get all the new hairstyles, but there's a few buildings I really wanna get too!
  8. I couldn't take pictures at the London Leicester store, as it was way too crowded...but there were definitely a few different pieces. Most of the torsoes were boring, mainly from City minifigures and the same goes for the heads. They had the Jekyll/Hyde one, and the one from the Pirate from CMF. They had the paint palette and the Tower card (my favorite piece and totally appropriate since I'm building MOCs based on "The Dark Tower") but did not have the cobra. I'm thinking it may be that they had already been taken/sold out. But I think that the pieces in your pictures are way more exciting and useful than the ones I found in London.
  9. Ugh, I hate you guys! You're already enjoying them while I'll have to wait for a week or two until they are finally distributed in my city...
  10. @TheBigRedCheese no worries! Thank you for trying to help. I ended up finding it thanks to another fellow forum member. It's the ballistic mask from Modern Brickfare. Already ordered it and a few other pieces.
  11. You don't know how much I love you, sir. Thank you SO much!
  12. I started a thread but nobody seemed able to help and I'm kinda desperate. Can you guys recognize the helmet used in this custom? The guy who did it does not respond...
  13. For a Fistful of Dollars....again!
  14. I just voted the lumberjack. All of its parts are really useful and I believe he was the first minifig to get a more detailed axe, which was the reason that made me buy it.
  15. HA! Another Bloodborne fan! That's what I've been saying...I don't care about the secrecy, this is my favorite minifig from the whole series and probably from the last few, too...as it reminds me so much of my favorite videogame, Bloodborne! I've actually made a few custom hunters using mostly purist parts! I shared one of them on the forum by the way.
  16. If you guys want me to take pics at the London store I can do that!
  17. I'll be flying to London this weekend for work and I'm definitely visiting the Lego store. I am super interested in picking some minifigs so I was wondering, what are the rules for making them? how many parts can you choose? Just head, torso, legs and one accessory per minifig?
  18. Excuse my ignorance, but what's "minifigure bar"? Is that where you can build your own minifigs using different pieces? I am really curious, as we have no Lego stores in Spain but this weekend I'm going to London on a work trip and of course I'll visit the official store.
  19. @TheBigRedCheese thanks for your reply! unfortunately I had already looked at Si-Dan pieces and seems like they didn't do that one. I'm struggling a lot to find this piece, ugh...
  20. Hey guys, Let's see if somebody can help me out... I was browsing through Instagram today and I stumbled across this picture from IG user thelostminifig. Does anybody recognize the helmet? This dude customizes the toys with sculpted pieces, but this helmet seems to be from some Lego compatible accesories manufacturer...I just don't know where to find it and I love it so much! Unfortunately some people asked the guy but he seems to be the "I never reply" type. Hopefully some of you guys will know.
  21. Hi guys, Yesterday, in a local toy shop, I found some LEGO compatible toys from a brand called Sluban. They all look horrible, but I saw some cool hair pieces and wondered if they would be compatible with minifigs. I bought one of their figures and surprinsingly it looked really good on my Lego minifigs. They're made of rubber, thinner that the ones that Lego has made in rubber too, but the colors are on point and it fits the minifig head perfectly. Do you guys know of any brands that have their own hair pieces (no Lego clones) and that are actually worth buying? The one I bought is in the guy with the bandana in this picture:
  22. I actually want to add the classic censored pixel area. But I'll change the blue hips for a tan one and edit the colours a bit on Photoshop to make it look better! Thank you so much for your help!
  23. Thanks for the help! I don't seem to know how to use the catalog search, as I never get any results whenever I try to narrow my searchs by color... But I managed to find these legs from a Harry Potter set. They don't have a crotch, but I can edit it's color on Photoshop a bit. Along with Prince of Persia's torso, I think I'm good!
  24. Hi guys, I need to depict a naked character for a scene from a book I want to represent with Lego. I'm using flesh, not yellow. It doesn't have to be explicit, I will put a censor mosaic where his genitals should be, so I want to use official pieces. Can you guys help me find them on BrickLink? I thought of the Luke Skywalker in the tank minifig but it has too many details and I can't think of any other figures with naked torsoes, or with their legs being all flesh color. If the crotch is white or any other color and the legs are flesh that should be ok too! Thank you in advance!
