Being a huge fan of LEGO CMFs, I am really liking the entries and presentation so far. So, please keep your entries coming! It is really very nice to see all of the many cool minifigures designs and weapons with numerous combinations being created from the LEGO elements without customised accessories.

Great job, I was actually focusing more on your interior furniture details. Your cabinet drawers is rather amazing, so is your fireplace.

A good job well done, on this stop motion. Love the way you handled the sound effects. It is one of the few videos which I have watched without skipping through.

Hello everyone, I am back to bring a small polybag which is one definitely one of the decent polybag range within the current Galaxy Squad which is about to end-of-life very soon. By chance, I picked this polybag many months ago when I was in the LEGOLAND Malaysia and it happened to be available to be selling at a promotional price for about RM10 which is about USD$3.00 which is very much reasonable for a hard-to-find polybag like this. So, I have decided to do a short review for this since I am going to open it up anyway. Hope you will enjoy reading it. Name: 30231 Space Insectoid Theme: LEGO System / Space / Galaxy Squad Year: 2013 Pieces: 27 Minifigs: 1 minifigure Price: USD $3.49, GBP N.A, EURO N.A, SGD N.A Resources: Brickset, BrickLink An original polybag image of the 30231 Space Insectoid Back view of the original polybag image of the 30231 Space Insectoid Incoming enemy! This is one of the two polybags in the LEGO Galaxy Squad. For a polybag like this size, it is great to feature both good and bad guys element in this small built. A simplistic built will allow Galaxy Squad lovers to amass a decent size of the micro space insectoid and build up a decent army of the Green Squad. Instruction Manual (Front) Instruction Manual (Back) First half of Galaxy Squad 2013 It is a pity that I am unable to complete the whole of the Galaxy Squad 2013. It is a good and short-lived space theme which kind of emulates the Starship Troopers to some extent of humans versus bugs. I am pleased to own the 70700 Space Swarmer and the 70703 Star Slicer in my limited space collection. The LEGO building content It is pretty quick to laid out the entire building content which will be the focal point of building up the space insectoid. After the built is completed, these are the remaining spare parts. Green Team Leader - Chuck Stonebreaker Let me introduce the Green Team Leader and he is Chuck Stonebreaker. He is the sole human personnel who is assigned to the Green Team whom excel in defence perimeter through the use of heavy artillery support. He is certainly combat ready and prepared to transform to his battle mode by turning the head to the other direction. It also contains back printing which reveal his battle division of '30'. This is just a random inference which I don't know what it meant since the other Galaxy Squad minifigures also have '30' at the back of their torsos. This minifigure including this polybag, can only be found in three sets Green Team and Blue Team standing by The finished built of Space Insectoid This is a micro scale bug sized enemy which is capable of flying and engage the Galaxy Squad at rapid speed. The colour schema stays close to the villainous colours of dark red, lime green and black. Although it may look small but don't be mistaken of the small built which is incredibly deadly when attack in swarms. Furthermore, do mindful of the Space Insectoid's deadly sting which is likely to cause paralysis. The built up scale between Space Swarmer and Space Insectoid Going into full battle mode To conclude, this polybag is pretty value for money. It allow the builders to own two distinct factions and pretty focus to give decent fun of playing against one another through such a small built. I will have to admit that the best thing about this polybag is able to obtain the Green Galaxy Squad minifigure through such an inexpensive means. I find the minifigure design very detailed and I am very much fond of it. Luckily, I managed to acquire this polybag without buying the main play sets. Summary review Playability: 8/10 (Very fun to play and set up a simple fighting scenario of good versus bad.) Design: 8/10 (The space insectoid is not too bad, but the minifigure is definitely the best.) Price: 8/10 (Reasonable pricing, if you are able to find it between USD$3 to USD$3.50 for it.) Overall: 8/10 (Do not miss this polybag especially if you are a fan of space or a Galaxy Squad lover.) I gave it a "4" based on my Review Score Card. My lowest score rating ever! What about yours? I hope every one of you enjoyed reading this simple review of mine. Comments and Criticisms are strongly welcomed. Pictures can be found in My Flickr.

Dear Eurobricks Community and to the EB members/lurkers who are fellow Singaporeans, I have brought news from the ongoing LUGSing Extravaganza 2014 which will be held from 6 to 7 December 2014 (Sat and Sun). It will be one of the first of its kind with AFOLs display and fun extravaganza. Be sure to check out official updates in their Facebook. Below is their official event promotional poster, WhiteFang

Good job. I thought the built was very huge, due to the picture presentation. Then I took a careful look, I realised it was kind of micro built. Meanwhile, I have updated your topic title for better clarify. Thank you for sharing with us.

This is not just a mere troops transport carrier! Wow, instead this involve high playability. Love the back of tail to demonstrate the slides. Awesome work indeed.

Splendid Rick!

Moving this to the Community Forum instead due to useage of bootlegs. Thank you. WhiteFang

Special thanks to CopMike for organising this annual Christmas tradition! WhiteFang is wishing for many things in the upcoming Christmas and what really matters to me is the opportunity to own the 'prized trophy'. Glad to have have Mr Rebrick Minifigure to chill out with me.

This is driving me 'nuts'. Loving this contest presentation. Even love it, when you are only accepting LEGO official elements for this contest.

Topics merged.

Updated the topic title for you. Nice review. This is one of my favourite advent for Star Wars.

Excellent built. This is really very nicely captured with the entire pose setting. At one glance, you will be thinking what will happen next.

Thank you for deeplink these new images. I have updated it in the first post.

Thank you VBBN. You have done an excellent job to depict this review in a good illustrating manner, despite of my first impression of this being a not-so-interesting set, as compared with other Minecraft sets. Still, this set which I believed is a milestone set for Minecraft sets, similar to meet the Dungeon boss as what you have explained. I will think you will have to be a true blue Minecraft fan in order to appreciate this set to the fullest. I will agree that the new Minecraft LEGO accessories are very interesting and nicely done but I don't think it can be justify to spend so much money to acquire them by buying this set especially when there are many other appealing LEGO Themes/Sets out there.

Just want to add, that after I noticed the release of this Series 12, this is getting very very popular, even among non-LEGO fans. I do see more people in shops who are into collecting this LEGO Minifigures Theme.

Through a very kind soul, I have just received my 40106 to extend to this Santa Workshop! Can't wait to see how it is gonna turn out to be!

Please keep this discussion on topic and not derail into something else. It will be much appreciated. Thank you. On a side note, I also don't think this list given is entirely correct. It seem dubious to me. This is just my own opinion.

TWO2SEVEN, I have merged all your topics into this single existing discussion. Thus, please discuss in here. Thanks. WhiteFang

Nice review, Clonie. I am very keen in all of these cars especially to note that they come with the pull-back motor and some nice printed car parts for the vehicles. Even though the polybags are more expensive now in Singapore, there is still a huge demand for it. Looking forward to your next sequence.
