  1. Scary how much that minifig looks like Beatrice Arthur.
  2. 649 regular price? Any Swedes in here remember the original price point on that one? I don't think I paid more than 400 for it.
  3. I didn't have much from the 80s town, but if I had to pick I'd say that 90s was a bit more complex, vehicles started getting nicer lines to them instead of just being a few square bricks and a windshield slapped together. The Octan station from 92 is easily my favourite town piece of all time and IMO the best gas station they ever made, which is why I'm disappointed they haven't improved on it, I wouldn't mind a higher price point if they give us everything a gas station should have, at least 3 or 4 pumps, a car wash that fits cars and smaller trucks, a repair bay with sliding door, and a tow truck. 7993 was such a disappointing release, I mean, they're releasing 6 wide vehicles and they barely fit into the station.
  4. Some dueling banjos music and this scene is complete. Nice work!
  5. This is my first MOD I've posted, actually it's my first mod, as I'm generally an OOB kind of guy. I raided Lego 7733 for trailer hitch parts and designed a dolly to attach the trailer from 3180 to this years 60016. I'd like to show you more but I can't upload any more than 100K atm, is that a new member thing? In Sweden we have gas trucks that look like this... https://www.google.com/search?q=tankbil&bav=on.2,or.r_cp.r_qf.&bvm=bv.50500085,d.bGE,pv.xjs.s.en_US.ciY8R2R6XC8.O&biw=1920&bih=921&um=1&ie=UTF-8&hl=en&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=hEkKUqTLMMG54ATa7oCwAw#facrc=_&imgdii=_&imgrc=EtpBOBEyQhwBzM%3A%3B3NIm7ySwXU6CwM%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.lilltroll.com%252FLastbilar%252FVecka%25252044%252Fimages%252F2006%252C1245%252520Volvo%252520FM12%252C420%252520Preem%252520tankbil.jpg%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.lilltroll.com%252FLastbilar%252FVecka%25252044%252Fpages%252F2006%252C1245%252520Volvo%252520FM12%252C420%252520Preem%252520tankbil.html%3B600%3B450 I'd like to have used wheel wells on the dolly but it would have made the scale way too large and unrealistic.
  6. I haven't heavily invested in city sets since 2009, and bought my first one since 2010 this year, the action sets they've been releasing lately are completely unappealing to me. I really don't like the fact either that sets are being given several minifigs with seemingly nothing to do but stare at what the other guy is doing. If they want to give us extra parts, give us pieces to cover the gaping holes you leave in the wheel wells in pretty much every vehicle you release,
  7. Greatest space set ever IMO
  8. Nice work Too bad Lego is against everything war themed, I'd buy this in a heartbeat, but they have no problems with Pirate Ships, swords, guns and cannons, seems like a double standard to me. Love the Angry Bird and the use of Imperial logo as the exhaust. Room for minifigs?
  9. Long time reader of the forum, first time poster, wanted to try and sell some of my collection
