  1. Very nice and very coincidal, I just made an Ash myself and it's very similar. I like it that you did it a purist way (don't know about the torso). The chainsaw is cool, buy you seem to have the same problem as I did, you can't put it sideways to the figure. I'll be posting my version soon I hope.
  2. To bad they didn't wait a year before producing this figure. A shiny exclusvive every year is fine by me, but this one seems to come very soon after the Darth Vader. The anoying thing about it that there is always group of collectors who has a very hard time getting one of these "exclusives" It also looks a litle to mush like an artificial attempt to catch collectors. Lego is going Hasbro and I wonder were it will end.
  3. The coupon is mutch cooler than the poster
  4. I just buy an extra pair of stickers on bricklink and take realy care of the ones aplied.
  5. Another Endor Han, no Luke. But don't get me wrong, this looks like a cool set. Very funny revieuw
  6. Buy what you really want and spread it trough the year, that is how I collect. Also, when you want to buy a set just for the minifigs... Bricklink.
  7. very cool idea, this could also beacome a cool new spinoff. Star Wars city themed. Your creation looks already very good, but I think you need to work a litle more on the detail, more red and white, less other colors.
  8. I just got a chrome Darth Vader, bought it on eBay now that prices droped and I'm so glad I waited. This figure is just not as cool as I thought it would be. The chrome is just to mush and it has a purple shine. They should have made a R2 D2 with chrome head istead, that would have made some sence, but this Darth Vader doesn't, it's even not a good looking minifig...
  9. Nice to see the new Ewok next to a painted old Ewok. The old ones defenaitly look better and more like the Ewoks from the movies. I don't really understand why they made a new mold when they had sush a good one, but I presume it's because the old mold is to dificult to paint.
  10. this set has some very interesting parts. I would pas, but the new Indy head and motorcycle make it worth it. If the price in €'s is resonable. To bad we didn't have that motorcycle design one year earlier for the motorcycle chase set.
  11. this looks like such a great set, to bad for the monkey and scimitar, otherwise it would be perfect, now it's "just" great.
  12. looks better than the original one, great job
  13. cool contest, but a litle short deadline. I think I will have to pas again, but I'm looking forward on deeing the entries, good luck all.
  14. But eventually you have to sell them to make profit. How long must you hold on them? Pete Milligan probably has them for 10 years now, you can't keep them for another 10 years I think, what's the profit if you can sell them for a lot of money but aren't young enough anymore to scander the money in a descent way. BTW, I think that when the theme ends after a few years the prices will drop, if the theme ever ends.
  15. Maybe it is time we start a topic about the USA exclusives. So we can talk about it over there. The reason why I think it would be good is because this site is called Eurobricks and a lot of people talk about Lego USA like it's Lego in general and that really bothers me, since they apereantly are not the same.
  16. Just my opinion: You've probably heard this before, but a collection is worth as mush as you want to give for it. I would recommend to keep the sets you only have once and try to trade or sell the doubles for the ones you still want. I doubt you will be able to sell them al for what they are worth according to collectors. It's crisis now and there are more collectors stopping than that there are bgining. In extense of this, I don't think the prices will go up, I presume that they will only be getting down, maybe within 10 years they will go up again, but then it could be to late... Aniway, it's a nice collection, but I'm not a fan of MIB, so I would sell it al to buy boxes which you aren't affraid to open.
  17. haha, the UCS Falcon is a real home wrecker.
  18. I know I am maybe a litle harsh. But when you live outside of North Amerika you have al the reasons to whine, if you want one, you can't have one.
  19. echo Other minifigs they forgot: Imperial Pilot from the Emerors ship The droids from the Sandcrawler. When you put every version of the Clones and Assasin Droids on it, you must also put every version of every other figure on it, but offcourse from a commercial point of vieuw it doesn't make that mush sense since the old minifigs aren't being sold anymore. I know a place were you can print huge prints from just € 3,5, but I think it's not really worth it for this poster. Does anybody know if it's illegal to photoshop your own poster and print it?
  20. No no, you mean all of the world exepect the USA and Canada. I am really starting to wonder what we in Europe have done wrong to Lego. (I'm talking about the 25% of on the UCS Falcon, don't care about the lazy poster anymore)
  21. The idea is very cool, but it doesn't really give something new, it's just a picture of what is standing in front of it. I think a picture of the minifig in somekind of setting might be better. I would also try to use matching fonts
  22. after closer examination on Brothersbrick, I must say this poster really sucks and makes no sense. There is only one version of each figure, always the newest one. When you mix yellow and flesh, you should all of them to give it at least some sense. There is Yoda and Dooku from the Clone Wars and not the ones from the movies. The gold C3PO is pictured different than the rest. Some figures have weapons/ lightsabers and some none, when they should have. And best one of all: they forgot Cloud City Han Solo and I think the A-wing mechanic. I feel like sush a nerd but it wasn't that hard to spot. The idea for this poster is very cool, but the way they worked it out, is just a very very lazy photoshop. Let's hope it's not the final result.
  23. I love it that is is something cheap which every fan can get. edit, seems again us only
  24. They should have used this sword for the street battle scene
  25. I've done it again, I clicked the x Delete button instead of the " Reply button. I don't know if others have the same problem, but it's maybe the third time I do this. Why do these buttons have to be so close next to each other, why is there even a Delete button in the PM itself? I don't think I'm that clumsy, it's just when typping and comunicating to fast you quicky scroll down and click that button in the right corner. Luckey I'm ussing Firefox and I'm able to recover and restore most of the message that is gone, but still, links for example seem to get lost. Do other members hae the same problem / frustration? I don't know if it's possible, but can't the Delete button be moved to the left, so that they aren't that close to each other? Thanks,
