I agree. Those Technic beams seem to serve a folding function like on the back of the ISD, but these will fold the whole bridge section toward the front. And it would be a shame if there wouldn't be something underneath those wings. Also, don't forget that it will have some kind of bombing action feature. I still wonder what those things on the sides with the two blue lightsaber blades are for. They look like turrets, but a Venator usually doesn't have a turret at that spot, and these don't seem to have any play feature (except for maybe aiming them to different directions), so I don't get their purpose. Can't wait to see pics of the remaining interior and of Palpy's final CW face!

I like the improvements that you have done. The oasis scene is a nice touch, even though it doesn't make any sense (They are taking a vacation in the middle of a battle?? ). I think it would have been funnier, though, if you would have used figs that look like the beach troopers from LSW. The figs that you used don't look much like clones, you know. It would even help if you would just exchange their heads with flesh toned ones. Either way, the figs in your diorama are still waaay out of scale, though. Why not? You could use miniland-scale figs, like these or maybe even figs like these. Those would fit into your diorama much better IMO!

Impressive, most impressive! You have everything! Even the ISD Alternative, all the pens, all the maquettes, and even some custom figs and minis! Do you have all the magnets and watches and other accessories too? Also, I don't see the old AT-TE in there. Do you have it? And I can't believe that you have the space to display your complete collection! You are quite the completist, aren't you? I bet KimT is jealous of you.

I was going to say the same thing, but I forgot. That can't be, though, since she has her usual hair in the Robo Attack set. Yeah, I thought that too.
-
Very cool! But the engine on the truck doesn't really look like a steam engine. Is that Lt.Col. Thok flying the plane? I'm jealous of all your telescopes. Good luck in the contest!

Holy Moly! Amazing find indeed! Thank you so much! I shall comment on the pics that are really new: the Agents ones! (I hope I'm allowed to ) My thoughts: Awesome, awesome, awesome! Some very nice vehicles, new villains, new uniforms, and best of all - bullet-proof vests! Woohoo! Gold Tooth's Getaway: A nice little affordable set with Gold Tooth in it! The vehicles are kinda "meh", but at least there are two rare pieces in that set: An orange telescope and a golden dinosaur baby! River Heist: Looks like Break Jaw's twin brother and his girlfriend! And she looks pretty cool! The catamaran boat thingy looks good too, and it has a mechanism that makes the propeller spin when you roll it over the floor - a cool play feature that I haven't seen since that one Technic set in the 90's! One question though: Who the heck builds a bank right next to the water? Oh well. 4-Wheeling Pursuit: A nicely designed Jeep with a nicely designed copter. Nothing too special for me though. But wait a minute - Is that a green Dr. Inferno? Sweet! Perhaps some kind of clone? Or maybe it's Slime Face who is pretending to be Inferno? We'll see. Robo Attack: One word: AWESOME! A very classic villain vehicle, and it looks like it wont cost more than the Turbo Car Chase, so this is the cheapest way to get Dr. Inferno to date! The glass dome piece looks cool! I think it's new. And I can't believe that TLG gives us several innocent civilians for Inferno to terrorize with this set! One of them looks like he's bleeding from his eyes or something! I wonder what's up with that. This is the only set of this wave that seems to come with Agent Trace. And Agent Chase is nowhere to be seen in this set. Strange. Maybe she broke up with him. Aerial Defense Unit: A strange type of helicopter, but very cool looking! I'm loving the new robo-villain and his remote controlled minions! Also, we get a new female Agent pilot here. Overall, a very good looking year for Agents!

Trailer for the Ryloth Trilogy! (Clone Wars)

Huh? This is the TV series. EDIT: Oops! Sorry for double post. -
Trailer for the Ryloth Trilogy! (Clone Wars)
Oky replied to Snake...SNAKE...SNAAAAKE?!'s topic in Culture & Multimedia
Yes, there truly are some very nice things in this trilogy, some of which we have not seen before in this show and which are kinda overdue. It's interesting. It seems like most Lego CW sets were based on this season finale. I wonder if we will get one of those blue-and-grey MTT's at some point. Ah yes, the Shatterpoint power! I had forgotten what it was called. Very cool that they are bringing this kind of Windu-specific powers into that episode IMO! Go Mace! You mean the ones next to Windu when he says "Bring that bridge back up"? I think they are called Scouts. They are Windu's personal squad or something. They had a tiny role in the CW movie. That's Mace for ya: He always has to demonstrate how badass he is. Again: Mace FTW! -
Just kidding. Wow. How mature. Actually, you're already at the ship, and I believe it's your ship. So how about you hop in and come to help us? And yes, you're not being very helpful. And you wont be if you don't post. So, come on, post away!
-
Are you kidding me? That's hardly an argument! Her character has just been invented, so even if Lucas wanted her in any of those movies/stories, he couldn't have included her because the movies were made before she was even invented. Maybe, when they bring out another remastered/special edition of the OT, they'll digitally insert her in some of the scenes. Or maybe they'll release something like "TFU 2: Ahsoka's Revenge" at some point. You never know. I get your point, though. Since Yoda said that Anakin will have to let her go eventually, I'm guessing that she will disappear by the end of the series in one way or another. Grievous was just toying with her, knowing that she is just a puny padawan. Ahsoka's size made her harder to hit than the jedi that Grievous usually fights, so maybe he underestimated her a little. In the end, Ahsoka just got lucky. Rex hit the detonator at the right time, so that could escape. I'm sure that if she should ever meet him again, she's toast. If she is going to die, I hope it'll be in the hands of Grievous. On this, I wholeheartedly agree with you. But unfortunately, this show is nothing like the old cartoon (which was a masterpiece!). At least Mace Windu seems to be as badass as he was in Tartakovsky's cartoon. (see Ryloth trailer) But when did Lucas ever say that the events in the miniseries not really happened? I thought it was perfectly canon. Wow. What a good reason for wishing for someone to die. Yes, I'm aware that she's a fictional character and that you only want her to die so that she doesn't appear in the series anymore, but still. Yeah, they probably will. At least for most of the show. So deal with it! And if you feel the need to discuss this further, I'd like you to take that discussion to the proper thread. Thank you. Now, let's get back to wishing.

Meh, it's alright. The set looks decent and the minifigs are pretty nice. Not much playability and no special parts though. Still, I guess it's a nice playset in the style of cloud city. But to think that we could have had Palpatine's Arrest with all its jedi and palpy with transforming head etc. instead of this stupid hangar with control room... Oh well, at least I wont have to spend all my money on this exclusive and can focus on the CW sets. I hope that all the OT fans out there are satisfied now, and that all the unrealistic rumors of this set being the complete ship will finally stop. And who knows... maybe they'll make the Arrest set next year.
-
So... he changed his mind about not wanting us there then? Fine, whatever. But he is not inside the base, right?
-
But why? Dooku said he doesn't want us there. Could you please clarify this?
-
Interesting. Now we're starting to wish for magnets, eh? Good idea. Well, I'd love one with Gunray and Farr too, so that I don't have to buy that stupid shuttle to get them!
-
Yes, you kinda did. All that "Kill Ahsoka" stuff was getting too much! But isaacbrockthebuilder helped kill this topic with his weird post. Yes, that's a wish come true for me as well! Let's just hope that the Mace action doesn't end there! Oh, and I agree: Some more Aayla would be great! But if we do get more Aayla, I hope she will bust out here green lightsaber too this time!
-
No kidding! Man, I'm so jealous! I hope we get such a sale down here soon too!
-
I'm guessing TeeBee brought you up to speed. Btw, I attempted to clean up the mess caused by Thok, so please, everyone, go to the bottom of page 5 for clarification!
-
Yes, you did, Captain Smartypants, but darkrebelion was just reviewing the episode and pointing out what he liked about it. And I don't like bad grammar/spelling either, but I don't nag about, especially when the writer comes from a different country. Not cool.

Hold on, hold on! We need to sort things out here before it gets too confusing! Exactly! This makes no sense! Therefore, it has to be a dream. However, nobody said that the replica Ren Luun and whoever is behind the whole doppelganger side plot is working for Dooku, so they could have different plans. Dooku just wants us away from him, from Sector 15, remember? As I said, it's something that makes you go to sleep and dream (and believe) that the Sith Lords will fullfill your greatest wish if you betray and kill your friends, so that once you wake up, you will be tempted to kill your friends. That's what I figured anyway. This does not have anything to do with your stupid weird mutant serum from Season 1. However, it could be that this is the serum that that scientist from your first post in Season 1 (the one with the German accent) developed instead of the mutant serum in this timeline. Just a thought. Sorry about that, Wouwie, I'll edit my post. OK, this is what's going on now: We were captured and got that serum inserted. After that, we all fell asleep and were brought to a prison where we now wake up in different cells. This renders any confrontation with Dooku and/or Sidious a dream! It's all part of a plot by the seps to pit us against each other. This prison that we are in is not in Sector 15 and Dooku is not there! The only one in our group who didn't fall asleep (but pretended to) is Adam, who is a robot. His purpose is yet to be revealed. Got it? So anyone who posted between my post (where I wake up) and Thok's post needs to edit their post to have it make sense in the context stated above. Thanks.

Oky Wan woke up in a prison cell, all alone. He had a headache and had trouble remembering what happened. He slowly sat up straight and the memories started to come back to him. They had been captured by droids and then... the droids injected them with something that made them go to sleep... but Oky had fought the effect of the serum and managed to stay awake... and then they were brought to Sector 15 where he met Dooku who offered him something... something wonderful: A giant lab with unlimited high-end technology where he could peacefully invent machines for the good of mankind for the rest of his days!... But... the only catch was that he had to betray his friends to get it! Oky thought about this for a while. Was that real? It seemed too good to be true, but it had felt so real... He had always dreamed of settling down in a lab somewhere and do what he loved to do, but would he be willing to kill to fulfill this dream? But Oky didn't even want to think about it. He could never betray his friends. They had become more than just partners. They were brothers; kinda like the family that he never had. No, he wont kill them, he had to help them! He stood up and looked out of his cell. He could only see a hallway, but he could tell that there were other cells next to his. He didn't know who was in them, but he was hoping it was his friends, so he started asking: "Hello? Can anyone hear me?"... Elsewhere, Adam was regaining consciousness as well. However, he was not in a cell, but in a bacta tank like the real Ren Luun. He tried to move but he couldn't. The liquid in the tank must be preventing him from doing so. He looked outside the glass, and he saw that he was in a Techno Union lab. Judging from the moldy walls, it had to be underground. The bacto tank with Ren Luun in it was standing next to his. Then, the Ren Luun replica walked up to Adam's tank and said: "Well, well, look who just woke up. I hope you are comfortable in there, 'cause you'll be spending some time here. However, you should be feeling a slight discomfort on your cranium. Hehe." He was right. Adam did feel that there was a device placed on his head and it made his brain hurt. "You see, we replicas don't have sufficient memory space to save all of the memories and personality data of the person we are supposed to imitate, so the professor built these devises that let us wirelessly access the information in the brain of that person all the time. That's why you have to be kept alive. But that's as much as you will hear from me." concluded the Luun copy and walked away. Who is "the professor", wondered Adam. But he didn't have time to solve that riddle - he had to think of a way to get out of this situation.

Wrong. Although some sources state that it will be the 19th episode, I'm pretty sure it will be the 20th since the official website says that there will be 22 episodes, and this is a trillogy and the season finale. Wrong again. It is said that the first episode of this trillogy will be aired on February 27. Can't one of the mods just merge this with the other topic please?

I went to TRU and - I was disappointed. The sale posted FBTB is not true. At least not in the US. However, the Power Miners sale from the website is real, so it's 25% off of any Power Miners set - except for the Boulder Blaster. That's 25% off of a price that is only slightly above MSRP. For example, I got the Thunder Drill for $22.49. Was that at a Lego Store? Damn. I was hoping to get it at that price, but I got scared that I will miss out on that set, so I got at the $35 price. Oh well, at least I got one now. Gotta love Kit Fisto and all those navy blue pieces!

Trailer for the Ryloth Trilogy! (Clone Wars)
Oky replied to Snake...SNAKE...SNAAAAKE?!'s topic in Culture & Multimedia
Hooolyyy Crap! That - looks - EPIC!!! FINALLY we see Mace Windu in action! And - man - he is kicking some major butt! I can totally not wait for this! Thank you sooo much for sharing this excellent, exciting trailer, SNAKE! You made a SW geek very happy! Amen, brother! He is the Man! According to Wookieepedia, the first episode of this season finale entitled "Storm Over Ryloth" will air February 27. -
Yes, as long as you get permission from the player the character belongs to. Which I just did. @ Thok: Wait - WHAT?! Your post makes no sense at all! I mean, we just heard Dooku say that he doesn't want us in Sector 15, and now he is having us transported to it?? And why would Sidious offer you an army? This does not compute! Unless... Unless it's all a dream caused by the serum! That would make perfect sense! So, they injected us with a serum that makes us kill each other? Very intriguing! But wait... At the end it says that you are trying to find a way to save us... Is that a sign of you trying to fight the effect of the serum or something? Argh! This is just too confusing! Please explain your post, Thok!

Now, after my new post, we should all be together, except for JD, Jifel, and TeeBee who are in the Ewok village, and Garviel and the Adam impostor who are on their way there, and Adam himself, as stated above. As I said in my post, we will regroup, and then try to find Dooku. Hope that helped. So, we have permission to play as you then? I was unsure about that, so I just continued the story from where your doppelganger meets us. Sorry for not having posted any MOCs yet btw. I'm a little busy with midterms, but after thursday, they'll be over, so I'll have time to post some pics then. I'm still working on the CIS Saw-Tank, so I'll edit some pics of it into one of my older post as soon as I'm done with it. EDIT: Crap! I overlooked this post by JD. Looks like Jifel and TeeBee aren't in the village anymore, but on their way to the Fortitude in order to save our butts! I added a little bit to my post to incorporate the ambushing droid force. Now, let's just hope that they will get there in time...
