Batbrick

Thankyou for this excellent review Vader! *sweet* *y* What a sweet deal you got yourself there. I own the old Obi-wan JSF and must say this one is better! I don't like the Anakin fig, but if you ask me the entire highlight of this set is that hairpeice! *wub* Thanks again! To the Brickmobile! >:-)

_________ Well if thats how you feel about it, then you should post it, so we can suggest improvements :-) Its all about helping each other grow as a builder! Oh, and looking forward to the Robinmobile! (even if Batmoblie sounds more appropriate :-P ) _________ _________ Thanks Wout! Yes, I might post a Batbrick comic one day, chronicling how I caught iamded. And don't worry, soon he will be iamcaught! :-D _________ _________ You did comment on it in the entry thread, I believe it went something like this: "Oh Batbrick you are SO my hero! Greatest MOC ever! I worship you, even more than icecream!", of course I DID wake up a few moments later :-D But thanks, feedback is really important to me, even if, after doing a shot of you in prison, I left the cell open! _________ _________ Thanks TinyPiesRUs! :'-) And yes, two computers do come in handy when trying to read the new MM reviews and type this in at the same time! You never know, I might be in the cave right now......... Thanks for your comments on the walkways, I tried to make them look interesting :-$ _________ _________ Thanks Dark Sword Ragnarok! To the Batmobile! >:-)

I'll Take Asuka's advice above me :-) Watched Batman Begins again, I love that movie. I hated the old Burton ones because it was so style over substance, to the point where, as one critic stated, it had plot-holes you could drive the new Batmobile through. Also Batman killed, not cool :-( My favourite parts are featuring the Scarecrow, Cillian Murphy did a very good, creepy version of him. The story is great, and the inclusion of several morals and emotional scenes kept it from repeating the Burton formula. Also a favourite bit (spoiler ahead!!) is the meeting between Gordon and Batman on the roof at the end and Batman given a case about a double homicide, where the killer left behind a Joker card! X-O Batbrick Away! >:-)

hewkii9 got my vote, skelesort is so appropriate for a lego forum! :-D Batbrick Away! >:-)

__________ Yeah, I HAVE to get that one, to equip my orc armies! ;-) Thanks VBBN for this review, I can't wait to see pics! :'-) Batbrick Away! >:-)

__________ Both are his sigfig, like mine, his non-pirate one is his avatar ;-) Batbrick Away! >:-)

_________ The person above me will give me no such help after that nasty prank he pulled! :-P Batbrick Away! >:-)

________ The person above me is not actually as lazy as he seems, and is happy that I thanked him, although doesn't quite realise that this is all part of my plan to enslave iamded once and for all! *skull* Batbrick Away! >:-)

________ The person above me kindly set up the poll for the Halloween car contest and I thank him for that! *sweet* Batbrick Away! >:-)

________ The same thing is happening to me! :'-( But don't buy until you see those Batman sets iamded, THEN you will be swayed at the thought of cheap Mr.Freeze and Penguin figs! X-D Oh, and I haven't done this in a while, soooo........ Stalking you...................iamded *skull* Batbrick Away! >:-)

Stop taunting us Hinckley! *sing* :'-( Glad to see they still have alternatives on the boxes, I especially love the scorpion one! *wub* I HAVE to pick up some of these! :'-) Batbrick-wants-exo-force-2008 Away! >:-)

_______ Thought so! *y* Mine is nearly finished, the main mecha is done but I just have a few extras to add! >:-) Its pretty tall too. Oh, and Brickmaster, that is one be-U-tiful mech you have there! *wub* Batbrick-envies-all-these-mech-builders Away! >:-)

Nice army there *y* I wish I had blacktron troops. Funnily enough, I very much like the way you did the pie throw, very effective! :-D Batbrick Away! >:-)

___________ I wouldn't call the Joker's copter pathetic, the dissapointing cockpit can be easily modified to look like a cool clown chopper. But I agree with the batblade, I haven't even recieved the batcave yet but can already tell that it is poor in concept and excecution *n* Excellent peices though! :-) The Tumbler no doubt will be a strong set. Batbrick Away! >:-)

I love it! Hilarious! :-D A classic retold in lego skellie form! *y* Batbrick Away! >:-)

_________ You certaintly like buying expensive sets just for something small in it Sinner! :-D :-P Batbrick Away! >:-)

We'll I believe that six pictures are not enough to see all the wonderful entries in Hinckley's competition, but unfortunatley they do not want to share, so you get stuck with mine! X-D :-P Anyhoo, here is a view of the whole thing: The batboat can fit through the dock pretty easily, as can other small boats. You can see I slipped in my love affair with chains as a handrail! *wub* Here is the first level. It has a display for the two batsuits, and the Robin suit, as well as a jail cell for my latest enemy in Eurobricks city: iamded! X-O Heres my favourite part, the control room! It has a semi-circular desk where I do my investigations. On it are a set of iamded's fingerprints I'm trying to match up, and a Joker Gas Bomb I'm attempting to gain an antivenom for. On the right is a small shelf with a model human skull and poison ivy toxin. Behind me is my Brickarang holder and on my right (your left ;-) ) is my Brickcomputer. Heres my Bat-submersible, which is completely watertight, and small and agile. It can go underwater for short distances, which is required for the best access to the cave, which is accessible by an underwater cavern on the coastline. In the background is my cape holders, with mine and Robin's cape. Also a bat :-D A view from the side, You may notice on the crane, a small computer used to operate it ;-) : Here is a spider web, covering the lower room, which holds the controls to the batcave and its many functions: It is accessible by a small diagonal ladder extending into the main platform: The access ramp: The dock from above, believe it or not but the batboat can actually manouvre pretty easily in there :-D : iamded in his cell, ha ha! :-P Oh wait! The cell is open! X-O Sideview with capeholders: The Batsubmersible on its own, actually fits a minifig for its small size. I'm quite happy with it, its rather sleek for something that can fit Batman in it: I accidentally caved a slope in this pic, so just ignore that, it is watertight ;-) (just not now X-D ): You can see him in this one: Back of the whole thing, pretty plain, but its meant to be a cave so the back isn't really meant to be good :-/ : A couple more shots of the whole thing: Hoped you liked it, comments and constructive criticism greatly appreciated! *sweet* Batbrick Away! >:-)

__________ Ahh, yes, I had forgotten about Alpha Team. So you think that if it is only mildly successful they release two more sets? Sounds like a good theory to me. Batbrick Away! >:-)

I was wondering, what with Vikings and now Mars Mission, if it must be a new tactic for TLC that a short-lived theme has a two set next year release. The boxes of the new mars mission sets only show an additional two sets, as did the Viking sets, will this become a trend? If this is true then maybe we will see another couple of Aquaraider sets next year! :'-) What do you think? Batbrick Away! >:-)

If I have the money I hope to buy this wave of Exo-Force sets, that way I'll be able to finally get those characters, and heaps of nifty parts and clicky joints! :'-) Batbrick Away! >:-)

___________ Thats actually a very good theory! *y* I so want it to be true! :'-) I have a pretty good reason to believe Gordon is hiding in one of these sets, seeing as the man who made these sets said that Harley, The Tumbler and Gordon were on his to-do lists! We have only one to go :'-) I've also thought about Harley Quinn's hammer truck, what does she need a whole truck for? Unless someone is being held kidnapped in there? 8-| Batbrick Away! >:-)

__________ Really? I thought of it more as a Fascist regime city! :-P But yes, it does send that message, and although I am not offended by it, it would be far smarter on TLC's part not to include police everywhere in the background :-/ But I for one would like to build a fascist police state with all these policestations! Batbrick Away! >:-)

_________ Funny how they love bridge fights so much they went to all the trouble of knocking a tree over a lava filled chasm just to keep the tradition! X-D BTW: good spot there iamded! *y* Batbrick Away! >:-)
