Looks less like a Star Wars toy and more like something from the villains of the old Starcom toyline.

Nah, because he switches to Good Cop after ordering them caught "NOW!" and adds, "or whenever you can." or something like that.

Oh! My mistake. Carry on.

I may be misunderstanding this, but it reads like you're trying to keep a low profile on these pictures.If that's the case: It, uh, didn't work.

If you do, I'd love to see it.

Just to go on the record, I strongly disagree with everything you said here.

Well, the cached gallery is gone now.

Hey, it's your LEGO. I've done worse. Recently.

Seconding what Zbij said: Try building something not a mech. One of the projects that helped me improve the most as a builder was when I built an extension to an existing set. That way, I had a pre-existing restriction (the original building's size and unique shape) to work around, and had to figure out a lot of techniques for making it functional as well as looking good. I build a lot of action vehicles, too, and I find that just loosely sketching the shape I want to wind up with helps a lot. Sometimes I down load official sets LXFs and see how many recolor combinations are actually feasible with existing bricks with Bricklink's inventory. But most of the time, if I hit a wall like your describing, I go work on Not-LEGO projects for a while. Maybe take a week or three off without opening LDD.

Stealth Bike's wheels unfold into a hover-thing. Pretty sure, anyway. New Agent Armor and Drill gauntlets look like preliminary pre-mold test pieces based of color and texture. Most of the figure prints look non-final, too. Set designs look done, though, although we might get another instance of how in Wave 1 the HQ cab window was upside down in the prelim pictures. Now, we just wait, I guess.

I love the printing on the figure, and the rubbery hair is nice. The Teddy Bear is a fantastic accessory that help cement the character's implied personality, and the printing on it is great. I've never been a super-huge fan of the cloth skirts, and I think I put it on wrong, but that minor inconvenience aside, this might be my favorite CMF ever. It should be noted, though, that I was going to be pretty biased from the get-go due to personal nostalgia.

Got a Spooky at a Wal-Mart. Box was new Saturday, gone Sunday.

Who dat yellow Ninja? Edit: Yellow minifigs always look weird to me because Naked.

LEGO Movie has that too. I don't think there is a "canon" for LEGO.

Spyclops in the original Agents had mechanical spider legs, and not the new one does too (sorta)! Can't wait.

I love this set. Except those two little robots and their loose-as-heck arms. Those jerks can go fall in a hole.

Exo-Force tried to coax me out of my Dark Age, with my love of mechs and robots. I had been in my Dark Ages since the third wave of Alpha Team stuff came out, and while I really liked that line, I just wasn't feeling it anymore. Anyway, Exo-Force hit, and I bought a few middling sets, built them, put them on a shelf, and went back to other things. Then Agents came out. I can't really explain exactly why, but when I saw Sawfist's newly-molded cybernetic arm, I had to find pictures of all the sets. And I thought the villains were totally '80s Weekday Afternoon Cartoon awesome. So I bought the whole line twice over (except the car/helicopter set). Then I bought the second wave. Then I started MOCing stuff for it. Then I was buying unrelated sets as parts packs, and even though the line was ended, I was still planning, buying, and building LEGO. And then Monster Fighters came out and that all happened again. So I usually collect one or two (in this year's case) themes a year, and if I'm not buying a theme I'm Bricklinking a ton of parts for LDD-designed MOCs. After all that, my son got really into LEGO Trains. So, now I have to budget those (often expensive) sets into the equation somewhere. YAY!

"It's a little dark, don't you think?" is what I hear a lot. *SHRUG*

Had to do this with my video game collection back in '05. Then my personal circumstances changed dramatically and the economy took a hit and I just cancelled the policy and sold a lot of the high-dollar stuff (albeit for substantially less than I would have gotten if I just sold them in '05). I've thought about it with my LEGO collection, but I really don't have many of the sought-after sets.

Gonna retract my Bespin Leia guess now that I've seen the Tracker/Genie hair. I dunno what licensed character it'd be for, though.

That's a bit melodramatic, don't you think? Most of the kids I know weren't really bothered by it.

Spooky!

Mine's getting the Lumberjack's axe.

I'm not going to mince words: I think Tremor Track is boring to look at. It just doesn't visually appeal to me for some reason. But I keep picking it up and making the fists go while I'm thinking about other stuff, so it must be doing something right in the play value department.
