  1. If it weren't in that packaging, maybe. I don't think TLG would go and recolor molds (hair and arms) for the Toy Fair exclusive. My only memory of an exclusive colored mold for a SDCC/Toy Fair figure is Batman of Zur En Arrh's cowl.
  2. Althior stood up from his long-maintained spot in the bar, making his way towards the questboard. Seeing a few new quests posted, he bolded his name under Quest #125 and signed up for Quest #124 as an afterthought. If there was something amiss in Ziegfried manor, perhaps it was a time he payed the family a visit, especially after the information he'd learned of Bluto's knowledge. He had promised the tower keeper to keep the boy safe, and he had intended to, no matter what.
  3. Very nice interpretation! 6082 remains to this day my favorite set, and though I do appreciate its classic charm and colors, this is a very nice redo of it. The gate, staircase, and extra floor above the dragon pen are all very, very nice. Maybe you could try your hand at some other redos akin to this? I'd be very interested in seeing what else you can do to revitalize Classic Castles.
  4. Lyren and Nuitan In Quest #???: The Red Wedding. I think a shift of power could be neat, but I don't think we need to full on eliminate one of the house of power, but if one lost some power, that could prove interesting. If Quest #120 had gone the other direction with the party turning their backs on Shanxian, the Ji Pei would lose credibility and power in the city with the loss of its Matriarch and the Tritech corporation. This would supply the death/loss that Zeph was talking about without eliminating the house altogether. We'd still be seeing Jun and Lee struggling to have power over Eubric. And with the Ji Pei no longer being capable of being Xu's ambassadors, the influence of the Ji Pei in the city would decrease drastically. On the other hand, this could lead to much more power in the hands of the Bonapartes. There would be a definite shift in power over the city, but the houses would still all be there.
  5. None of the ones I own are (Shazam, Phoenix, Zur En Arrh, and Collector).
  6. It's happening when you put them on the jumper. What I don't get about the jumper is why those protrusions are even there. Are they supposed to keep the figure from flying off when you launch them? I didn't think the figures would end up falling off, but I don't see any other reason to why they'd be there.
  7. Are you thinking of the Emergency Essence? If it's in your inventory when knocked out then you automatically get revived with half of your max HP. Otherwise, it can be used as a regular essence (I think). I used it during the Monkey Guard battle in #100.
  8. Got the entire new DC wave and the Detective's Office from the LEGO Store within the past week.
  9. As soon as I saw that in Quest #119, I could've sworn that Serevan had been a Watch spy in the Bonapartes or something. It's actually a really nice head/hair combo, though, so I'll allow it.
  10. Yup, happened to my GL when I got the set a few weeks ago. There's some pointless ridges where the back of the leg meets the jumper. Makes it hard to get the figure on and off the thing.
  11. Marvel Best: Star Lord (Starblaster Showdown) or Taskmaster Marvel Worst: Thor DC Best: Flash DC Worst: Riddler No terrible figures this year I thought. Some were kind of boring, but still neat to have.
  12. I agree with this. Last years Grogmas event was really cool, even if I didn't have time to participate. Perhaps this could be an anniversary event?
  13. I fully agree. The only reason I think we would need one is to be able to have reversible faces like Flash has. The only reason I would want the wings on the helmet is if it were printed on the side of his head (ala Lobot). For AoU, Cap's wings are barely noticeable anyways. They seem to be subtly incorporated into his costume and are nothing like Flash's huge lightning bolts.
  14. Really liking the combo's for Superior Iron Man. Very simple, but it works.
  15. Last we heard it was going to be an annual Grogmas Event.
  16. Ah the joys of early Althior. It seems to me like a lot of the heroes in this game are either tall and lanky or towering behemoth's. Though the name Munchkin is very confusing in itself too.
  17. There's a few areas where the rounded part meets the straight part where the paint is thicker/thinner than the rest, but I'm fine with it. The sides don't match up exactly, but that's not a big issue to me either.
  18. The question on everyone's mind. It's a shame to see Erdy go, though it's better to go out in a blaze of glory than to just disappear. Hopefully one day you'll be able to come back and play.
  19. Althior signs up for Quests #122 and #123
  20. Great review Oky! I managed to pick this set up a few days ago and I must say, it might be my favorite modular yet for the feel alone. The pool hall, barbershop, and the detective's office itself are all wonderfully designed!
  21. Nice to be getting a non Batman/Superman character for an exclusive! It's good to see TLG is focusing on other heroes rogues galleries now. I don't honestly know what book it would be for though. There hasn't been a ton since the last batbook...
  22. I enjoyed this game much more than LB1 and LB2, and I absolutely loved LB2. This one isn't as bat centric as the other two, however, despite the name. If that's not an issue, I'd definitely go for this one.
  23. Yeah, my Batman cape ripped a little bit around the neckhole just from putting it on and taking it off. Luckily I have plenty of older capes to replace them with.
  24. I did that to him right before I had him change to Necromancer; sometime between my last trip to the Fields and Quest #68 (so around March of 2013 I think). There isn't really a post or anything describing what happened exactly, though. I remember Finnegan coming in and telling Haldor what happened and that was really all I did with it, seeing as I like to keep it a constant mystery tormenting Althior (at least for now).
