Johnny 5

I think this is great overall. I love the bridge, that particular tile technique has been popping up a lot lately, guess I'll have to try it. The hustle and bustle of the everyday life you've depicted is what gives this moc it's charm. Keep it up hope to see more.

This isn't fair, Texas has only one store, California and Massachusetts have more than one already. We need more stores in Texas!

This is truly amazing. It is the sides of your building that catch my eye the most, the snot and how the slats are staggered just so. I also love the sluice and if ever I need to build one I know what moc I will be referencing to steal borrow. The huge amount of detail in this really sells this and makes it seem bigger than it really is, you have to look at it three or four times to get everything and you still wont catch it all.

This makes sense to me. Just think if we didn't see any pics and those sets were all of a sudden on the shelves at your local toy and department stores, and TLC managed to pull off a huge cover-up leading up to release date in January, what kind of craziness do you think would have went on?

This is fantastic!!! I love your rock formation and the bones over the side. The coconuts and the layers of colors on the ground is great also. The dog is also brilliant. One of the best pirate mocs I've seen.

:laugh: Can't believe I can't count, and I'm studying to be an engineer, maybe I should reconsider... My number is 2223

I like it. It has a good ruined bridge look, which i assume you were going for here. Good job, keep it up.

Everyone who didn't see the Yeti, it's there in the next to last picture made out of brown and tan holding a skeleton over its head. Amazing work and sense of detail, I'm simply blown away. The high level of quality that is consistently included in your mocs is astounding. I haven't seen a bad one from you yet, and don't think I will. Keep them coming! :thumbup:

:oh: You got four? Wow!!!

I liked Rock Raiders a lot, with it's interesting vehicles and minifigs, also it had some fantastic colors that we didn't normally get. Sadly I only caught the tail end of it and ended up with only two sets. If Power Miners is similar to that I'll definitely be looking forward to it. Also about the Space theme it may very well be retired in the major line sort of sense what with Pirates coming back. It could be that TLC will only run three "evergreen" lines at a time now, and rotate Space and Pirates.

If anyone is newsworthy its Johnny Thunder. Great to see Lego on the news.

This is interesting, count me in.

Thanks for all the great birthday wishes guys, I got my third dwarves mine from my girlfriend (), and now moving onto cake and ice cream. As for the steelharbingerofdeath, c'mon I can deliver nuclear weapons, beat that.

This is a good deal, I'm in.

I believe I hear angels singing. This is so exciting, really great news and a good enough confirmation for me. No large ship yet but it'll probably come if these sell well.

Where?

Oh my, that is impressive.

Fantastic!! I'll visit now.

If you don't like this thread, why post here? I think that people enjoy going over the same evidence over and over, seeing if they missed something or if something else can be gleaned from it. Half the fun is anticipating the line and discussing it at length.

There is a higher chance that the language that people use most for business will remain english rather than change somewhere down the line because in the past the premier business languages were centered around a particular country that was the richest or most powerful etc. Now it isn't, you have the majority of the countries using english even if the native language spoken there is something else. This came into being because the economic superpowers at the time when instant worldwide communication was being developed spoke english, resulting in the business language of our time being english. Now english has more sticking power now than any other business language in the past because things like the internet, cell phones, and other instant communication technologies are making the world a smaller place therefore making english more and more widespread. Microsoft recently came out with a study that everyone in the world is separated by only three degrees, which is virtually nothing. The current countries that have the most economic power may change in the near future but I highly doubt that english will ever go out the forefront of the business world.

Where do those Guardian dragon pieces in the front come from?

If they're not for pirates, then why were they made? Can you ask them that?

4? Wow that is stupid.

I tried to see it but it said not available in your country, and I'm in Texas!

I think thats just a screenshot or something similar from the game.
