  1. I dunno, I thought the figs looked better this way when I assembled them. I guess I'll switch the legs back to keep it accurate though. What's the point of reposting? It was a nice little joke, but not that good that it needed to be reposted IMO. And it still has wrong spelling and capitalization.
  2. And it's a good thing they went with a different design. (No offense, Mr. Chiang)
  3. Hehe, nice one, Pig_Brick. I too was thinking of doing somerhing similar, but you beat us to it. Two CW jokes from me today: How the Twilight Was Designed (Also how the Twilight books were written) If anyone has an idea they can't execute, send it to me in a PM and I'll see if I can do it for you!
  4. Aye, Tortuga is a good idea, especially if it's anything like SlyOwl's rendition. Anyway, here are some of my ideas: The Flying Dutchman Will and Jack's duel inside the blacksmith shop Port Royal, possibly during the pirate invasion The Kraken Calypso's Swamp Hut Scenes from the Disneyland park attraction And I'm sure the upcoming movie and videogame will give you some inspiration as well.
  5. It's "that", not "at". ;-)

  6. It's basically an ADU trooper with binoculars and one of the new guns with a jetpack that consists of the old jetpack neck piece (the Mr. Freeze has) and a SNOTed construction where 2x4 wedge plates make up the wings. Pretty neat army builder.
  7. Actually, according to this cross-section, the side hangars weren't really used to deploy vehicles, but merely to "dock with space stations, mooring towers, and larger starships, for the purpose of transferring troops and materials," so only the hangar bay doors on the top and bottom lead to the main hangar.
  8. Now that I've seen the rest of the episode I can safely say Wow! What a weird episode. I can't say I liked the Batboy & Rubin bit much at all. It wasn't funny, it was just stupid. The Japanese episode was pretty good though. Does anyone know what the Batman figure was that popped up when Bat Mite said "Believe me, there are some weird versions out there"? As for the episode with Superman, I kinda liked it. The cheesy portrayal of some of the characters was pretty funny. Now if only they would air the Matches Malone episode...
  9. Good news: The new assortment of PAB parts includes a TIE Pilot torso! Not sure how useful that is without the helmet, but it's still neat to see more minifig parts with SW prints starting to pop up in PAB.
  10. Is it really that hard to see that it's supposed to be the Queen? I was hoping that now that the two queens are facing each other, there wouldn't be a doubt about that anymore. I guess I really do need that S5 Cleopatra... And what do you mean by "black pharaoh minifig"?
  11. Oh, silly me. I guess not having played chess for a long time, I have forgotten the setup rules. Since it seems to bother you guys so much, here's a picture of it with the right order of squares and queens. I have also given Jake a torch to make him stand out as the king. I only have two or three of those mummies and I don't want to buy three more Golden Staff Guardians sets just for this entry. And the scarab is well over 4 studs long.
  12. The last wave of Power Miners? I think this is just their way of drawing out the last wave of a theme over here. I don't think it would make sense to do that in the first wave.
  13. You just couldn't resist quoting that pic again, could you? Yeah, I wonder what the story behind that guy is. Having multiple lightsabers is usually a Sith thing.
  14. Yeah, definitely the guy with no pants. Maybe he just has a really bad sunburn on his arms.
  15. Well, City, Kingdoms, and Creator don't have a lot of new sets, so that leaves enough room for Cars and AC, and the words "first look" probably just mean that those themes haven't been seen before. It would be weird if they only released part of the sets, but then again, they did the same with Atlantis for the current wave...
  16. No, it says "a chance to get (...) while supplies last", so it could just mean "You'll get the fig if we still have it in stock". At least that's what I hope it means.
  17. You mean like this?
  18. He said "Some day this war is going to end". That doesn't say anything about the show ending. We still have at least another two seasons to go. True, but they're a primitive race, and Grievous is supposed to be able to hold his own against several Jedi at once, so the idea of a single non-force-sensitive Gungan with a stick being able to damage him that badly is ridiculous. Filoni said so in this Q&A. Like I already said, no. And I think you can wait a long time for that. Let's hope so. If there's anything good about them copying stuff from the original show it's that there's a chance for some of the characters and vehicles from that show to be made into sets. Don't worry, you've got a couple of months to catch up.
  19. Huh, I didn't notice that. It's not a big difference, so I'm guessing she must've modified it between these episodes. And given Sugi the new zabrak horns. Oh well, every ship eventually gets re-released. The finale was pretty good IMO. Not great, but a lot better than most of the season. I didn't think the death of whats-her-face wasn't all that predictable, and the cameo of Sugi and Tarful was a nice surprise.
  20. Interesting suggestion. We've been due for another chromie.
  21. It's not fuzzy; it's just edited to be very dark. Maybe it's to hide the true awesomeness of the fig. But yeah, it could also just be a stand-in to build up the mystery.
  22. Sorry, I forgot to add the link. Fixed now.
  23. Well, it looks like Lego finally decided to give away something actually useful this year! According to the May Store Calendar, you'll get an exclusive minifig with a SW purchase of $75. Pictured is a black ARF Trooper with silverish visor, but I'm not sure if that's the fig they're talking about. I certainly wouldn't mind if it is though! What do you think? And as mentioned before, they'll post a prequel to the video from last year. UPDATE: Looks like it will indeed be this Shadow ARF Trooper.
  24. One day too late, buddy. Gotta love the uber-cheesy narration.
  25. According to the May store calendar, the official release date is May 10. Happy hunting!
