Greetings (Happy New Year!) I picked up Attack of the Wargs just in time for Christmas. Everything about the set was fine, except for the White Warg's hinge piece. The piece appears to be much shorter than the Grey Warg's jaw hinge. The Grey Warg's lower jaw extends all the way to the back, and the stud that attaches it is near the middle of the back part of the piece, whereas in the white jaw, the stud is at the very back of the piece, almost hanging off it. Seems to be a pretty clear case of a factory error. I was just wondering if anybody else has encountered this problem? Also, I submitted a request for a missing/broken piece on the Lego website, but this piece (and a couple of others) were had a red 'Add to Cart' button, while every other piece had a green one. I also called up Lego customer service and the person that helped me said that piece was not in stock. Now, I've visited Bricklink, but no one seems to be selling just the jaw hinge piece, everyone is selling complete Wargs. Does anyone know of another place where I might be able to find this piece for sale? Thanks (in advance) for any help that might be provided.

To everyone who is complaining about ROn's non-skater hair in Hagrid's Hut: Remeber that although these sets may be high-def, they aren't necessarily final. Look at the owl in Hagrid's Hut, they have no face/torso print. Look at the owls in the Burrows, they DO have torso prints, so the Burrows picture we have is probably pretty close to being the final product. My only complaint with these sets is voldemort's new face. It just doens't look good enough yet. And also, Lego is getting pretty cheap, Notice that in the burrows picture all the wood tiles have stickers on them when in the past, they have always been printed pieces I really do hope thats just something that they will change for the final set.

I'm glad to see the Police is looking into more serious criminals now, not just thieves, but they are now chasing down intergalactic pimps too Anyway, the Limo set really looks like the best of the bunch, at least to me.

Though all these sets look pretty sweet, I can't help but notice one thing. This wave doesn't seem to follow the harrypotter tradition. It seems Professor Slughorn on't be released, and, even though Snape was the DADA teacher in year six, Slughorn is still one of the only teachers who's minifig is essential and yet, remains missing It is rather dissapointing to see that we won't be getting him.

Venator-Class Attack Cruiser vs Imperial Star Destroyer
Belloq replied to Teddy's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Has none of you guys heard about the new Lego pricing policy? Past the 100$ mark, they have the eight to charge an extra 10 cents for every piece they choose not to add :-p Unless it's Power Miners, then they have the right to charge you double what the regular price per piece ratio is -
Tried to build up this sweet design but I couldn't, the republic emblem won't click onto the 2 side studded bricks. Theres something off about your design.

Is it just me, or does the ToD indy have one fleshie arm, like he's supposed to ? http://www.millionaireplayboy.com/toyfair_...ge=DSC08956.jpg EDIT: yes, yes he does.

Anyone notice the round flipping piece meant to represent the round wall that fell over, letting indy pass through to the graveyard? Nice looking bike

You mean his work stops amazing you? I think you mean your work ever ceases to amaze me. Nice figs

Nice review Brickster. The newly colored fedora looks great. Glad to see you bought the farm

I have a quick question about the ship included in this set. I'm planning to use it for a display, however, I'm not sure just how big it is. Will the new Power Miners Crystal Sweeper fit in there? How about the Drill digger or jungle cutter. If someone has both, could you post pictures? Thanks in advance *EDIT* Please, could someone respond? I need to get some idea as to what size it is, and, since I have no opportunity to see it up close, well, I'm kindda relying on you guys.

3 things: 1.Seems the new head is going to happen, since it is present in a few, but not in all the set. 2. Anyone else think Mola Ram looks like the juggernaut? 3. Notice the mini-minifig head in the headset?

Using the zoom in onthese I noticed that: 1. Anakin has what appears to be a new hairpiece, and a new face. 2. Leia's hair has reverted back to buns. 3. The rebel troopers helmets are now dark green millitary caps (prelim, though, since the ewoks aren't painted.) 4. Nute Gunray's crown looks unbelievable 5. The Taun Taun is split neatly down the middle 6. Palpy is still quite preliminary, his vest-shoulder thing, however, is not. 7. The senate guards might just be blue painted clones. 8. Endor will hold Death Star Troopers

The face with the smirk isn't going to be new, these pics are still preliminary. Does anyone not recall the same face appeared in the wave one preliminaries as well? Just don't get your hopes up, we've been "tricked" by ourselves before (or by misleading description in amazon de or uk) On a lighter note, I noticed that, upon using the zoom in function, I was able to catch quite a few details in the pristine presented quality. Marion does seem to have a new face, we will apparently get plenty of new flame pieces with the ToD, and the presence of the sliding-grin-like-an-idiot-Mola-Ram-escape-passageway-under-the-skull is not lacking. 3 cheers for the Big Thugee guard, now we have both incarnations of Pat ROach, now, if only Lego had stuck to the brown-mustached version in the fighter plane...

Show Your Army, Navy, and Collection Display
Belloq replied to BillytheKid's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Tee hee hee Had to get it out of my system. My collection is displayed in a bookcase similar to CopMike's, however, it goes from top to bottom and is next to my closet and near my bathroom. Occasionally I'll close all doors while I shower so some steam can reach the sets. Luckily the entire thing is in a corner of sorts, so no sunlight hits it. I do wish for glass doors though, that way the sets wouldn't even be dust exposed. -
What is all this chatter about no Padme? Does no one remember the dreadful figure some of us were able tog et back in '99? Yeah, we need a new one

Sorry if it was already given out, but this is what the description reads Commanding the Separatist assault on the Republic, Count Dooku flies from battlefield to battlefield in his Solar Sailor Starship. The Sith Lord's MagnaGuards and personal speeder make him nearly impossible to catch. I think it should've read "flees" instead of flies

Chrome black Darth Vader for trade
Belloq replied to Dennimator's topic in Buy, Sell, Trade and Finds
Actually, i think he wants the Chrome Gold 3po because he already has the Vader fig -
Huzzah!!! At last, the combined power of boiling hot water and a gray technic axel defeated the forces of jammingness! See, all separated Thanks, to all of you, for both the support, the humor and the ideas. However, something wierd I discovered, the hat immediately popped out when I used microwave water and a gray pin, but when I used stove heated water, it didn't work. Also, the gray axel pushed it out instantly, but before that I tried an equal length black one, and it didn't work!

How far in did you lodge it? /Users/lucas/Desktop/Photo 2.jpg That far in or less? Anyway, thanks for the suggestions, I think I'm gonna combine the whole hammer, plier and hot water thing.
