  1. Location: K13 (Dining Hall, Neb Monastery, base of Mount Sophia, Western region of Black Knights Kingdom) The healers guided the rest of them into their respective chambers. Lord Kenneth turned his back and saw Erik and Adrick standing at the corner, discussing some important matters. Bluervo interrupted Lord Kenneth’s thoughts and said “Now, why this Erik has to command me to do such chorus for him. Why don’t we ask Fernando? He will need to do some exercise.” Lord Kenneth replied “It’s a pity that Fernando is not with us. Otherwise, both of you can share the workload.” As they were walking back, Princess Diana said “The remaining seven members. I wonder who they are. The Black Wraith Demons are a threat to our kingdom. What do they want from us?” Lord Kenneth nodded his head “I have no idea but we must stop their plans no matter what. Earlier ago, did you see how both Ninja fight against the Prince of Darkness. Their speed is so unpredictable and we could not get a clear sight.” Bluervo added “Stop worrying about other things. Have an early rest, and we shall continue this tomorrow.” Back at the dining hall, where Adrick and Erik stood and discussed. Adrick’s expression showing sights of worries and said “Old friend, are you sure we are able to get the rest to join us in Neb Monastery. With both our powers, I am sure we can avert this disaster.” Erik showed a disappointing look “We have limits on our current powers, and we can’t go as far as we used to. Although, we managed to stop the assault today, but there is no promise that we can stop the next assault again. Furthermore, it’s time for us to reunite again. After all, it’s our sworn duty to exterminate them from this dimension.” Adrick pointed to the two ninja which stood there and asked “These two are not normal ninja? I am sure they belong to one of the special clans in the Northern Highlands.” Erik smiled “These are the subordinates of Hayate Krinio. I must apologies that I cannot divulge any further. When the time is ripe, I will tell you what happen. Right now, we should be worrying about these foul demons.” He showed a smile and said “Erik, you are right. We will continue our discussion tomorrow.”
  2. Glad you enjoyed viewing the review. These are some of the improvements which we can do it ourselves to mod it better. I think these are great suggestions. Otherwise, we can add in a white air tank to be included onto the mini-fig. In S@H, Crystal Hawk is priced at USD $3.50. I bought mine at a much expensive price, when you compared it with USD. I never bought the Astro Fighter. I am supposed that it comes with a little bit more parts and an additional alien fig with it.
  3. Dragonator, you have done a very great job so far. So don't worry about us waiting for it. Do what you need to do, in order to make the game flow smoothly. Today is your special day, just wind down yourself and have fun. If anyone giving you trouble, rest assured that the Royal Guards will do their job.
  4. A very wonderful birthday to Alice, Dragonator and Evil Willy! May all your wishes ever come true and be happy! (Image taken from Sean Kenney, mocpages) Dragonator, as part of the alliance and your birthday celebration. Part of the Black Knights Kingdom had went for Dragon Knights conversion course, and will be assisting you in your campaign in EBRP. May I present you the Dragon Riders from Black Knights, Lord Dragonator.
  5. These is what I bought yesterday, 5618: Troll Warrior 5619: Crystal Hawk 5620: Street Cleaner 5621: Coast Guard Kayak And more multiple sets of Indiana Jones, Temple of the Crystal Skull and Troll Warship.
  6. Guys, thanks for your kind comments. I am glad to know that you have enjoyed viewing this review. I thought by calling it as a "Mouse", it will be a little much friendly unlike calling it a rat. I must agreed with the both of you, that this is a much easier way to acquire these troll warriors at a much affordable price. I am glad these trolls are available in Impulse sets. Now, will there will be a dwarf impulse set in the future? I supposed that will be much interesting. If this impulse set includes a troll shield, my rating will defintely go higher. This is a troll army builder set, with minimum feature and limited weapons range. If the troll comes with an armor or a shield, I will think this set is worth it. Troll armor is hard to get by, as it appeared only in Troll Warship and Tower Raid.
  7. Thanks Sir Dillon. I appericate your honest comments. I wanted to shorten my carriage, but I thought a storage compartment will be useful to load up. That's why, I extended the carriage a little longer. Your idea is great. Maybe, I will try and improve on this MOC and present a much better looking model in the future. Seriously, I never thought my MOC reminded you of such things. I prefer older castle mini-figs too. Well, I think it will be great to do one in the near future, especially Black Knights faction.
  8. Hello all Eurobricks members, This will be my last impulse set review for the second wave. Hope everyone of you will find my reviews useful and helpful in your purchase. Name: Crystal Hawk Theme: LEGO System / Mars Mission Year: 2008 Pieces: 26 Minifigs: 1 An image of a 5619, Crystal Hawk Alpha 3 in Sector 5, reporting to base Alpha 3, Crystal Hawk, reporting for duty, Sir! May I present Mars Mission, latest scout craft, code named "Crystal Hawk". This spacecraft looks very sleek and cool with its usual white and orange color combination. I am not a fan of Mars Mission, but these white mini-figs simply attracted me for it. In fact, I only owned its impulse sets, and none of its main sets. Nevertheless, this set has the "swoosh" factor. I was swooshing around in my home last night. Well, I am not swooshing it like KimT though. Am I seeing double? Haha, the answer is "No". It has double sided face. I combined the pictures, to illustrate the two facial expressions. Bits and Pieces Different angles Love the way how the wings bend upwards and downwards. The only thing I find it a little bit wierd for spacecraft. Normally, I thought joystick is the typical navigation controls for a spacecraft instead of a steering wheel? I am not complaining about a steering wheel in a spacecraft. To me, it's quite an uncommon sight. Anyway, the white steering wheel is an useful part for making vehicles MOCs. Summary review Playability: 8/10 (Fun to play with when you bend the wings up and down.) Design: 8.5/10 (Design is simple, but creates a sleek and cool look.) Price: 8/10 (An inexpensive set to get more scout craft and mars mission mini-figs) Overall: 8.5/10 (A very good set to have for any Mars Mission fans, and for collectors like me whom can't afford all Mars Mission sets, this set is a very great alternative.) Hope everyone of you enjoyed reading this simple review of mine. Comments and Critics are strongly welcomed. Pictures can be found in My Brickshelf (When moderated)
  9. Hello all Eurobricks members, I will be doing a continuation of my Impulse set reviews. This will be the third review at a go. Hope everyone of you will find this review useful in a way. Name: Coast Guard Kayak Theme: LEGO System / Town / City Year: 2008 Pieces: 21 Minifigs: 1 An image of a 5621, Coast Guard Kayak Roll Roll, Roll your boat It seemed the coast guard has a kayak of his own, roaming in the sea, making sure that swimmers will be safe in the beach. Now, I am illustrating him as a life guard instead. This set is simply wonderful. Among the 4 new impulse sets, Coast Guard Kayak is the best looking set in my opnion. The kayak design is very simple but looks realistic . Furthermore, if you don't need it to be a coast guard kind of stuff. Use it as a leisure water spot instead down in the marina. I will think any LEGO citizen will love to have some water spot in their busy life. So come down here and wind down with this new sport. Bits and Pieces Kayak and the bouy The bouy is very useful to position it at the coast of your water to highlight the boundaries in the sea, and warning incoming ships or vessels. Oh, I did not make it tilted purposely. There is a white round base which allow it to tilt on both ends. Useful parts These parts are useful to add on in your city. Somehow, when I see that red cone, I can use it as a police stop, to inspect vehicles on the road or form a barricade with it. The bouy base shape is unique too. I like it very much. It is great to attached it by the side of the boat as a life bouy. The coast guard's life vest and helmet are very useful for water activites. The life vest was produced in past sets, and now it re-surfaced again. I am glad these vests made their way back. A look of him, without the life vest Summary review Playability: 7.5/10 (Fun to play with, especially the bouy when you see it moving up and down.) Design: 8.5/10 (Design is simple but straight to the point, especially the kayak design.) Price: 8/10 (An inexpensive set to get more coast guards and more kayaks.) Overall: 8.5/10 (A very good set to have in your LEGO town. The kayak is simply so lovely to me.) Hope everyone of you enjoyed reading this simple review of mine.

  10. Hello all Eurobricks members, I will be doing a continuation of my Impulse set reviews. I was pretty excited when I laid my hands on these new impulse sets yesterday. Hope to give most of you a good insight for this set. Name: Street Cleaner Theme: LEGO System / Town / City Year: 2008 Pieces: 22 Minifigs: 1 An image of a 5620, Street Cleaner Let the cleaning begin The Street Cleaner has a job to do. It is to clean the rubbish on the streets, after a New Year Countdown. It seemed the cleaning agency have a new equipment to use. It's not as big as the previous street sweeper machine. The cleaner will need to operate the equipment manually, by pushing it. Look at the mess After sorting out Look at the pieces offered. It's not a very complicated set, since it's an impulse set. There are some pretty useful parts lying around such as the broom, spade. However, I was quite surprised when I could not find the lid of the rubbish bin. I can't used this rubbish bin to place it around my town, without a lid on top of it. I believed it is not a norm, by not including the lid. Look at that bin Well, that rubbish bin seem to be containing his equipment in it, instead of the rubbish. The cleaner's face looks pretty sad. I think he wants to have a change of job. Front View I love that blue brush very much. Quite fun to play with, especially pushing the rubbish aside. That's why a spade is there to help him to dig out the litter and the broom to brush it away. Ok, now I know why his face looks so sad! Where is that Street Sweeper machine? Summary review Playability: 6.5/10 (Not bad to play with) Design: 7.5/10 (The design is relatively interesting, with the use of the technic part, to be its foundation.) Price: 8/10 (An inexpensive set to get another cleaner and some neat accessories.) Overall: 7/10 (Not a bad set after all. Pretty average, but still quite good to buy if your towns required more cleaners.) Hope everyone of you enjoyed reading this simple review of mine. Comments and Critics are strongly welcomed.

  11. Hello all Eurobricks members, I will be doing the second wave of the 2008 Impulse set series, which had released recently. I bought this set earlier ago, and will like to share this comprehensive review with everyone of you. Name: Troll Warrior Theme: LEGO System / Castle Year: 2008 Pieces: 19 Minifigs: 1 An image of a 5618, Troll Warrior Let the march begin The mighty brave troll warrior, carrying a dangerous cart equipped with a "flick" fire missile. Marching into the lands of the Crown Kingdom. Crown Knights must be ready for this new troll addition. From what I see, this set has a very minimum piece count since it's an impulse set. There is no unique parts found in this set. However, this set has a couple of useful accessories, such as 2 spears and 2 wooden wheels and a grey mouse running around. This set is another alternative for Castle Army builders to buy multiple sets, to build a massive Troll armies. In addition, the flick missile really works. Use a little bit of force from your finger and flick it, the missile will fly. Well, it certainly does not impress me at all with such playing feature. Base of the cart Different angles There is one thing I dislike about this set. The wooden wheels are too big, and it is the same as the ones in the Crossbow attack. I prefer the smaller wheels that exist in old castle sets that produced smaller cart. Since this cart size is similar to the old cart size. The old wizard's cart is a very good example of the proposed wheel. Bits and Pieces Close-up on the warrior and the mouse Summary review Playability: 5.5/10 (The playability feature is not fanastic.) Design: 6.5/10 (Design is adequate. If the wheels is much smaller and the flicking thing disappear, the score will be much higher) Price: 8/10 (An inexpensive set to get a troll warrior and a mouse.) Overall: 6/10 (To conclude, this set is good only for army builders. A new range of millitary vehicle to be added. That's all) Hope everyone of you enjoyed reading this simple review of mine.

  12. This is the start of the Black Wraith Demons, coined by Aluvar. Yes, I remembered his son and I am very curious to his outcome. At the moment, we are fighting against lots of unknown evil within our lands. The development will not take place overnight, we will let it evolved as we move on. It's ok. Soon, it will be my turn to post less. Will be getting busy over the next few weeks. Till it's over, the plot will still continue and grows. I am looking forward to Aluvar's story. Anyway, I am sure most of us here do that too. You won't know what it is until you start typing.
  13. Once again, I had dug out of the past threads that are buried for almost 2 years. It's time for me to revive it. Was actually finding a similar topic like this, thought of creating something like that earlier. I am glad Brickster had done it 2 years ago. My most desired mini-fig will be the lost forgotten White Ninja Princess. Well, not really forgotten. But, it was a figure that I wanted the most. Well, I know there are Bricklink and eBay around. I am still having preceptions to do online transactions. Till then, this figure will have to wait. My top 3 favourite figure will be as followed The White Knight from the Black Knights Castle. A Forestmen and A Black Falcon soldier! These are my favourite figures from my Classic era, and no new castle themes can easily replaced them from my heart.
  14. Forestmen map is updated. There are 2 new regions which total up to 7 regions. Sea regions will be included later. I just realised that Forestmen is a vast kingdom! Unknowingly, we had created a new faction which is commonly known as Black Wraith Demons. I must said, it all started with Aluvar and it had brought us so far in our stories. With our future plot development, we will experiment on how this new faction will look like. More importantly, the King of Darkness does not exist in the lands we know. More precisly, they existed in another time space. The Dark Princes and Princess are known to have 20 of them, each of them having their own unique powers. You are correct, that the earlier one is a much weaker level. In addition, there are actually quite a few of them appear in Black Knights Kingdom. One of them had taken over Lord Jason's body. The other is attacking Lord Calvin at the Oldennock Woods. In fact, Old Brown used to belong to that group. I know for some people who had watched "Bleach" anime. This is similar to the Arrancar structure. Believe me, this is so much different because this is EBRP. More will be explained slowly in the story. Players whom had encounters with Black Wraith Demons, can give suggestions to this mysterious faction. In fact, this concept was actually developed in the process of EBRP. ImperialShadows was the one whom coined "Black Wraith Demon" to the earlier arc/chapters in Lord Kenneth encounter in Green Valley. Looking forward to it.
  15. It took me a long time, to understand these posts. And, I am quite confused. Before I start cleaning my Breezeway Resturant, I hope to get some assurance from the ones whom had experience before. Most of the white bricks are yellow due to direct sunlight. Furthermore, this set is remain with dust and stuck onto them. My only experience of cleaning, is cleaning road base plates with toothbrush and body foam (those kind of liquid soap, used on my body) Most of the users here, keep mentioning about bleach. I wish to know if there is other safer alternative? Or is my propose solution suits for the restoring purpose. Oh, I can't use the washing machine techinque either. My house don't use washing machine.
  16. Location: K13 (Outside the Healer’s room, Neb Monastery, base of Mount Sophia, Western region of Black Knights Kingdom) Grandoth showed an astonishing expression and said “Where did he go to? Will he ever return?” Erik showed a faded smile and added “The Prince of Darkness will return, but not now. The shield earlier which is known as Divine Shield, belong to the Leader of the Nine. It is fortunate that Flynt managed to get it in time. Let’s return to the dining hall.” Adrick and Cecil lifted Siloux up. Erik turned towards him and examined his wound and asked “Did the healers poured a potion onto his wounds?” Cecil replied “Yes, it’s was a bright pink fluid.” Erik showed a sigh of relief “Your friend, Siloux had escaped death. The Potion of Antivien had done the trick. However, too much of that may endanger his life. Lord Kenneth, how is your injuries?” Lord Kenneth pulled himself up from the floor and replied “Erik, I am fine. Maybe, you can try explaining what is Prince of Darkness about? And he mentioned another Prince as well.” Erik gathered everyone together “Let’s discuss this in the hall.” At the same time, another group of healers arrived and apologized to his master for their late arrival. Erik requested them to clean up the scene, and pray for their fellow healers’ death. The rest of them proceed to the dining hall, filled with many more mysterious questions.
  17. Let WhiteFang help you, if you don't mind. I am not a big fan of Mars Mission, and my recommendation may not be justified based on my selection. Nevertheless, let me go on with my recommendation "if" I were you. Mars Mission theme is a mixture of white and orange for the good guys. While the bad guys has a mixture of green and black. That is their primary color combination. Go for the astronauts instead of the aliens. Why? Because the mini-figure is way much better than the aliens. In addition, the designs for both space-craft and vehicles are much better designed. This is my personal preference, if I were to get a "mid-range" set for MM. This is the only set which had caught my attention since MM was launched. And, my recomendation is the same as yours, the 7692 MX-71 Recon Dropship. Yes, it's sleek and cool. Most importantly, that aircraft is a much better design compared to the rest. I wanted to get this set earlier but due to the hefty price-tag, I delayed my purchase. Now, this set is no longer available in my country anymore. Furthermore, if you had watched Aliens (Alien Part 2), this design reminded me a lot of that dropship that were used to drop Ripley and the rest of the Marines. Yoda did a review earlier, but somehow, I could not view the pictures. I did not paste the link here, because I fear the links to the picture is broken. You can search it in the Space forum.
  18. Hello G.L.Man Nice topic for LEGO Star Wars fan! However, there is a topic, similar like yours, you might want to take a look.
  19. Brickster, this Space Command Center is awesome! Simple, yet so much playability. The Command Center display is excellent. One set, containing a total of 7 printed computer bricks, is totally amazing! Most importantly, that one large big display screen. This is not a very big complex command center, but it certainly looks the best around here, with those amazing parts, which you can hardly see it anymore in most of the Space theme. The 2 mini-vehicles are very nice looking. This kind of design, will make much better impulse sets than the current ones. No offense to the MM theme lovers, it just that I really prefer the older days of Space, since it's simple to build and nice to play with.
  20. oo7, this is an excellent oriential MOC from ancient Japan. When, I saw this unique title, I got a feeling it will be something great. From what I understand from the chinese characters, I thought it is a "Famous Teahouse". In fact, it was a place, for a skilled warrior, commonly also known as samurai to live in there. Training their inner-peace within their mind and soul, understanding the way of life, is their code. I love this MOCs of yours, very much. On the outer look, the tree by the side of the river is illustrating a Sakura season, just by using the pink petal and attached on it is very smart! I like the miniature water fall, where you distort the water layer, by creating different blends, to show the ripples. The building color is very pleasant looking. I find that you made good use of white tiles to create an oriential window, since most windows at that time, used only paper to cover it. The resident, shown in the house is depicting a simple life he is leading, by giving up his katana aside, and lead a simple life. I always enjoyed viewing oriential MOCs, and this is no exception!
  21. I do have a couple of old space sets which is as followed, Now, the problem will be trying to locate it and restore it. Then, I will need to find time to do classic reviews! Glad you enjoyed reading my comments. Thanks for informing me about this point! Classic Space, looks real nice. I can still imagine when I am still a kid, looking at the LEGO Idea Books.
  22. Finally, I am able to view Shelter A pictures! I will defintely have to go for A! Hinckley, I will be looking forward to this "EB Survivor".
  23. Location: K13 (Outside the Healer’s room, Neb Monastery, base of Mount Sophia, Western region of Black Knights Kingdom) Flynt looked behind and saw them fighting with the demon and thought to himself “I must hurried. There is no time to lose.” Suddenly, the two ninja earlier leaped over Flynt, and joined into the fight. The ninja unveil their katana from their back, and stood in a defensive stance. Flynt was amazed by their agility, stood still and Erik shouted “Flynt, hurry up. We cannot hold the demon any longer.” Flynt ran towards the dining hall, and saw a shield with nine circles embedded on it, hanging at the top of the fire place. He said to himself “This must be the shield which Erik is talking about.” Using a few chairs in the hall, he stacked them high up in order to reach the shield from below. He was not able to grab the shield properly and a loud bang was heard. The shield fell off from the wall. Flynt glance quickly and took the shield with him, and ran back to them. Meanwhile, both ninja began their swift assault onto the demon, leaping, hiding and attacking at the demon’s blind corner with shuriken and kunai. The rest could not catch their movement clearly. Erik fired a few holy bolts from his hand, aiming at its leg, causing him to unbalance. Lord Kenneth went forward and slashes the Dark Prince’s leg with its blessed blade. The right leg began to frost from the sword’s white crystal. The Dark Prince stomped its left leg with its might. The loud vibration caused the white crystal to shatter, pushing Lord Kenneth to the wall. Princess Diana went towards the wall, where Lord Kenneth is lying. She took a bottle of blue liquid from her belt, and requested him to drink up and said “Kenneth, drink this. This is useful for internal injuries.” The rest of them continue their offense, hoping to weaken his strength. Bluervo, hides at a corner, observing the Dark Prince and think “How can we stop this force of evil? I am just a mere parrot that has very limited strength. Wait, is that supposed to be an injury?” He flies towards Lord Kenneth and Princess Diana and said “Look at his right leg. It appears to have some green fluid dripping out from there.” Lord Kenneth examined his leg carefully and added “Bluervo, you are right. Our weapons may not be obsolete in this fight.” Erik turned his back and saw Flynt returning and showed a pleasing face “It’s about time, Flynt. Hurry up!”
  24. Excellent preview! Thanks for the lovely pictures. I am looking forward to the full coverage with more pictures. Hopefully, one day, I will be able to join up these kind of events. I am sure it will be great fun.
  25. Terrific review! I never own any Classic Space sets before. The ship is very nice looking, and I agreed with you that the opening hatch, to store the mini-figs in it is fun. In addition, the cargo area at the back is very neat when you opened its wings behind. Now, is the forklift supposed to be stored into the ship?
