The first time was fine, made sense in context as who wouldn't be horny around the Jerker but when he came back in the Flash and told the Flash brothers to suck his nuts and the showed it in graphic detail it was going too far I think you could interpret dreamers as a sorta thing tank/inventor class. We don't know if what that alien had would be considered a blaster given how CS is all over ambiguous accessories, they have so many weapon looking things that are really scanners or cameras OR guns if you so wish. Glad to hear it! My favourite detail about the game is in the original Dummy is a late game character, only unlockable on the statue of Liberty island, in the remaster for some reason they swapped his unlock location with a mataince worker. He's now one of two characters you can unlock before even playing the first level (before even the second cutscene too) as he's in a disguise booth right outside the police station AND he's cheap so you can play the ENTIRE game as him (which I ofc did) He came two series too late :( He'll make it a great one

I like that too, Cody love is always appreciated. Your way does make sense I just refuse to double up on roles because I think that's the fun of the game. Purple is the only modern one with a "canon" designation as the designer conference set gave them the role of "dreamer" with the idea being they're the astronauts tasked with coming up with new inventions and ideas to propell the faction forward. I like that more for Blacktron too, plus them existing at the same time as CS explains why they have spies. I always thought of it as a joke that a scientific discovery team had spies but if their role was invented later (along with Blue for security) to spy on the forces of Blacktron (who were on the shelves with the last wave of CS shortly before Futron) it makes everything a little neater Pipe bomb is more his speed, he sent neither though as he delivers them at midnight, if you have a new bomb then that'll be his :) Dummy fever must become known, maybe then LEGO will finally be brave enough to release a new Dummy outfit (I've made a good few custom Dummy looks myself, all inspired from when I played LEGO City undercover back in the day and made all the custom character slots different forms of Dummy) Maybe we all need to politely email LEGO and let them know we want a Santa Dummy, maybe a Dummy plush too. Only then will peace on earth reign. It's not even the first time I've done this, back during lockdown I got really into blender, mecabricks in particular. I was terrible at it but I was one of the early members in this discord server (as this was when it was first getting popular I believe) and I went on my Dummy tirade there too. It was less successful but there were still a good half a dozen people Dummy posting for a year or so there. And before that I tried doing so on the LEGO official forums as a youngster but no-one cared. This is my most successful Dummy experience so far though, so I thank all of you for being willing to let him into your hearts, back in 2010 he was considered the dud of the line up but now he's probably the only figure in series 1 to have the potential to build a cult (he wouldn't as he's so kind but he could) TBF he is the mascot for multiple LEGO fan sites and used a lot in LEGO media, but now there are a handful who, if he shows up in a crappy LEGO animation or game, will have a vaguely similar reaction to me and that's fun. Now the LEGO community memed Nick Bluetooth into being in this year's LEGO Christmas card + frequently referenced in prints and stickers, maybe one day Dummy nation will be strong enough to do the same. My life's mission is to convert people to the way of the Dummy, it shall happen...

DC Superheroes 2025 - Rumors & Discussion
Renny The Spaceman replied to Clone OPatra's topic in LEGO Licensed
If both are based off the Schumacher films how many figures will be used in both? We'll get two sets with a good amount of reused figures right? It'd be like a parody version of how they spread the cost of making new figures, this time doing so by just doing the same minifig line up twice five or take a couple -
That's a really good theory, this means canonically Johnny English would hate the 2013 LEGO castle line but fw Kingdoms They're outfits definitely don't convey that This is all accurate, ngl though I think going full starship troopers over some looney tunes aliens robbing banks is a little disproportionate, I feel you could paint some money on the side of a jail cell and they'd run into it. Fun headcanon, checks out, like how much you thought it through. It contradicts the Black astronauts "official" designation but those designations make no sense already so who cares. However I take a strong stance against Orange also being leaders, I think anyone's headcanons about what role a colour fills are fun and valid but doubling up on one is a CS heresy, the fun is the more colours they release the more megablocks their roles have to be :P In 5 years we're gonna be assigning teal as space cobbler and coral will be roadside repair for the buggies

LEGO Star Wars: No Longer For Kids?
Renny The Spaceman replied to jjr_2009's topic in LEGO Star Wars
TBF most kids who like Star Wars LEGO probably are mainly clone nuts given how they're the target demo for all those Clone bro channels -
DC Superheroes 2025 - Rumors & Discussion
Renny The Spaceman replied to Clone OPatra's topic in LEGO Licensed
Sure but on basic elements of filmmaking craft it's nowhere close, like pretty much everything in it is competently done it's just all in service of a script and tone no-one was a fan of. I think as a movie Forever is actually a lot worse because it's really awkwardly edited (Schumacher's original version was apparently much more centered on Bruce as a character but that got hacked off in favour of a lighter romp) leaving a film that's not really sure what it wants to be, Batman and Robin is going 90s Adam West and I think it does capture that pretty perfectly Both are pretty campy and insane, neither is funny enough to me personally for repeat viewings though. -

Renny The Spaceman replied to Clone OPatra's topic in LEGO Licensed
Okay, they're not anywhere near the worst films of all time, but assuming that they're not solely based on Batman Forever it is damming that they're willing to touch one of the biggest bombs in the genre's history with Batman and Robin -
DC Superheroes 2025 - Rumors & Discussion
Renny The Spaceman replied to Clone OPatra's topic in LEGO Licensed
I wouldn't doubt it, the fact we got a Superman mech was an act of divine (meaning Dummy based) intervention, a Superman side randomly appeared on the dice, no-one understood why but if anyone in the DC department goes against the D=dice they're taken behind a poundland and shot so no-one dared question it -
I like this theory I think they're all in the same world so Galaxy Squad would fit in, I do kinda like the idea of CS existing at the same time as some of the later themes, sorta showing the two different ways the original earth space faction evolved, with CS being more Star Trek while the 21st century ones lean more into Star Wars. I however think Galaxy Squad is more contemporary than CS is though, the faction could still exist by the time of CS but I imagine the events of the theme happened long before I was on the Way back machine with a friend recently, we looked through the old LEGO site and there was actually a section on the Alien Conquest theme's site where you could send in questions for the aliens to answer, only one would play but you could argue there that that was the attempt at diplomacy

Renny The Spaceman replied to Clone OPatra's topic in LEGO Licensed
The issue is we don't get half of those characters, we get Batman, Joker, Catwoman and then if we're lucky Mr Freeze, Two-face, Penguin, or Harley. Constantly switching the Batman media getting sets means all the figure budget goes into a million versions of the same characters whereas when they were able to reuse figures we'd be able to get fresh characters thrown in. Even at the end, in the weakest year for comic sets we got Bronze Tiger, Batwoman and Omac. If we get a Robin next year it'll be a cause for celebration now, let alone any hope of villains new or old like Mad Hatter, Manbat, Hush, Deathstroke, Deadshot or so on. Hell we can't even get any of the Batfamily bar the occasional Alfred or Batgirl. -

That's another funny point to mention, they were willing to do a Schumacher playset before doing a UCS Batfleck Batmobile. Those sets must have tanked so hard, I wouldn't be surprised if there's an ET game style burial ground of Flying Fox sets somewhere in Denmark -
LEGO Star Wars 2024 Set Discussion - READ FIRST POST!!!
Renny The Spaceman replied to MKJoshA's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Honestly I hate RTG because when those leaks happened I just thought LEGO had snapped and made random megablocks for no reason. Way less funny it was just tie ins to a show TBF none of these sets are TCW based, ARC 170, 327 battle pack, the Galactic Marine transport, Turbo Tank, Plo Koon microfighter are all RotS sets. It's really just the Ashoka ship from the start of this year, no? -

LEGO Sci-Fi Ongoing - Rumors, Speculation, and Discussion
Renny The Spaceman replied to Lyichir's topic in LEGO Sci-Fi
The original cockpit is tiny, don't need the same exact proportions but like the GE it should take up roughly the same amount of space relative to the ship IMO. The smaller version of the same piece used in X-wings or the one used in the Blacktron GWP would work better with the rest of the ship for me. As I said personally it makes the rest look undersized relatively as the cockpit is the widest part while having super dinky wings -

Right? Stick to one for at the very least two years and we'll at least get something. Right now it's a worst of all worlds scenario that makes Robin a pipedream character somehow! -
Unpopular Opinions about LEGO
Renny The Spaceman replied to Lego David's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Yeah, I agree here. I don't think LEGO's simple enough to have a designated golden age that it's been all downhill from. I think there's peaks and valleys as certain aesthetics fade in and out of use and that the late 2000s to early 2010s was our last peak for the fans of LEGO's original themes -
