  1. This is so cool! I love how you buried the TIE in the snow The snowy terrain looks fantastic! Also a fun scene and story with the pan
  2. There's an exlusive GWP rumored to pair with the set at release. Would be the perfect opportunity to include a missing minifig, no?
  3. Phew.... maybe with a laaarge discount.... We'll see.... Hehe yes, Cloud City Luke! Funnily I was thinking about him just yesterday, saying to myself "I wonder how many they overproduced. Someone must have made a typo in a excel table somewhere " The magazines are cool and a great way for starters to get some minifigs, but i wish they would throw in some interesting ones between all the Mandalorians and Clones. We had like 4 Mandalorians in the past years or so, comming with the magazines! At reddit I saw that we will get another Maul soon. Feels like we just got him recently with the magazine. (I don't remember exactly when Maul came last with the magazine, but I got him this way.) We'll get Ahsoka with the mag next month here in Germany, which is good, but there are more interesting minifigs like Aayla, or even Saw, like you mentioned.
  4. What is the price of the snowspeeder? It's the only set I am mildly interested in. To bad interesting minifigs like Aayla never show up in a magazine. She looks great! As does Solitus!
  5. Very nice cantina! I really like how the pole dancing stage is build. And those two spots add some great lightning to the scene (to the dancer). The colorful selection of exquisite liquors, illuminated from behind, looks great and sets a fitting atmosphere for the whole cantina! Great job all around
  6. Nice to meet you Matej Welcome to Eurobricks @Wolfgarr!
  7. Trouble for the sales you say? I seriously wonder how the Endurance is doing? So far I never spent more than 150€ on a set and even that happend only four times or so. I didn't even buy the fantastic Mos Eisley Cantina or beautiful Rivendell. The set I spend ~400€ on must be an absolute super-duper banger and I don't see this ever happening. From a 400€ set I expect 5000+ parts and not 2800 and at least 15, better 20+ minifigs. I don't want to dive too deep into the topic, but I watch a lot of reviews of pirate sets from other companies or Pantasy and Funwhole (now Lumibricks) sets in general and I don't think Lego is able to deliver the quality and quantity (parts, prints, lightning, etc.) I would expect from a 400€ set with the competition in mind. Spending 100€ and occasionally 150€ on plastic bricks... I already feel like an idiot , but 400€, I just can't bring myself to do it. And, even more important. First and foremost I am a moccer. I build a set once, but often I don't even build a set and part it out straight away (like the two botanical sets i recently bought just for the parts, one of them being the insane 10348 Japanese Maple Tree. The palm finger leafs alone cost 27€ new at PAB). So I may build a set once and then take it apart after few days and use the parts for mocs. But a black ship... I am afraid most the parts would be useless for me. I know there were some black ships in history, but for me a Lego ship has to be brown! But enough of talking about myself I am happy for everyone who will enjoy the Pearl, but for me it is an easy pass. I am waiting for POTC 6 and hope we get a wave of playsets. Fingers crossed!
  8. Yes, exactly! But I have a feeling, they never jump the gun and when they report these leaks/news in an article, they have been confirmed by their own sources. But that is just a guess of mine.
  9. Maybe it's just my gut feeling, but has stonewars ever reported something that is not accurate? I feel like they always wait until they have "internal cofirmation" for the news they put out. Seven minifigs indeed is lackluster and leaves a lot to be desired. Arkham gets 16 minifigs for 100$ less. Anyway, for me the Pearl is an easy pass at this price point. And speaking as a moccer, the Black Pearl has one big disadvantage.... it's black! And who needs all those black pieces? I would never build a all black ship anyway! I know the Black Pearl is an icon, but because of the color I would choose any other ship over it.
  10. I don't know which of this is new info but stonewars reports the following about the Black Pearl: 10365 Parts: 2800 Minifigs: 7 18+ 399,99€ 14,2c ppp 12 September 2025
  11. Awesome moc of Luthen's gallery! I think my favorite part is actually the backroom with the cluttered desk and listening device. And I love that you included the quotes. They really add some itensityto the presentation Those beautiful coins really belong into an gallery or museum Had so many of them as a kid but they were all lost. It's one of the classic parts that was/is better than everything we have today in its place.
  12. Nice too meet you Marco! Welcome to Eurobricks @Lonestar
  13. Beautiful display! I always really it it when ships are displayed together with a proper port. The island adds a lot to the scene too! But what really caught my attention is that paddle steamer gunboat. That one looks fun!
  14. Beautiful moc and such a peaceful one! I love the green color for the half-timbered house. That's a color we do not see very often used for this, but it works great together with the brown timbers and thatched roof. And I very much like how all the minifigs have their work to do, like feeding the animals, carying water, pick the hops. Great moc all around!
  15. Exactly! I even read at reddit that we are in a golden age lmao. Exactly! When you look at Star Wars, all the movies, shows and media.... How is it possible that such a small group of people dictate everything within the community? Damn Lannisters This kriffin' clone kriff has to stop! I hope Lego goes bankrupt My only hope for now are the upcomming movies. If Lego makes sets for the movies there won't be any clones right? Right? But okay, all these untiteled projects and future movies... we'll see what they will bring us. The current situation is just so frustrating! But at least I'll save a lot of money. Maybe I'll buy a bicycle instead of Lego
  16. I really start to hate Lego Star Wars. The least thing they could do is a rebrand: Lego Buildable Character Clone Wars. For the mental wellbeing of mankind it would have been better if clones never existed in Star Wars. Just sayin' At this point I am not exited at all to learn about next year's sets. The only question is how much of a horror it will be: big horror or bigger horror. Sorry for this rant, but what the heck is going on with Lego Star Wars?!?
  17. Beautiful diorama There's so much going on! Readbeard's pirates take the imperials by surprise! The gallows must wait. And I guess that one pirate had too much booze haha
  18. Welcome to Eurobricks @Lonestar If you want to add pictures to your post, you have to host them elsewhere at a site like flickr, imgur or basically any website that allows you to upload pictures. In your case you simply can copy the image location (address ending with the file format .jpg) from an image in your link and add to your eurobricks forum post and the image will be shown here.
  19. Welcome to Eurobricks @Brickstone_City Great to have you aboard! Your Mocs and photography truely look amazing Your use of fog and lightning is next level and creates some very atmospheric scenes! So good!
  20. Another amazing brickfilm of yours! Great visual effects and I also like the sound effects very much. Although I must admit, for the battle of Sevastopol, I miss the heavy German artillery and the large Soviet fortifications. But maybe these will be featured in the next part!
  21. This is such a fun and colorful figbarf Meditating Josara and Turd Culpritt (or what was his name? ) are my favorites! Then there's K'naz roasting a rat for dinner And the holo gambling machine really stands out as a side build! Great job all around!
  22. Coconut Cape has been chosen as one of five BDP 8 sets, set for Crowdfunding on June 1st, 2026! Coconut Cape by BallisticBricks
  23. I think the minifig scale dioramas, such as the trash compactor or Dagobah or okay But only because I see them as enhanced play scale sets. All the other 18+ lines I would dismiss Since I left my dark ages a couple years ago I bought 34 different Lego Star Wars sets: one 18+ set, 32 play scale sets and one advent calendar. For me play sets or play scale includes microfighters and battlepacks and some of the old planet series which I was able to pick up in a store 10 years after they retired (or whatever the number of years is ). The only 18+ set i got is the Dagobah diorama - because it's minifig scale! Of the 34 sets I bought the most expensive ones where Boba's Palace, the Scythe and the Resistance I-TS Transport all at an RRP of €99.99. (I bought them at varying discounts.) So long story short, I basically only buy LSW play scale sets with minifigs between €10 - €100. Maybe I am in the minority nowadays but If Lego continues their 18+ path, I am going to buy less and less Lego Star Wars sets And it's not that I am going to buy many more sets from other themes instead because the minifigs are an important part for me and other themes do not have Star Wars minifigs... (And there are no max €99 pirates or castle sets in which I would be interested in).
