£20... Welcome to the UK and its pricing ;)

Thank you threepwood, I had forgot about those!!

Or maybe she fancied you and was trying to keep you there talking to her Im slightly confused, which sets are being released on 8th May in the UK? I thought all currently known sets had now been released already?

If anyone manages to get a darth revan without having bought £50 worth of SW lego, can you post here, and how? Thanks!

Are people able to get the free minifig with £50 worth of any lego or is it just Star Wars lego, when they do it on the website? It used to be put in your bag regardless of type of lego, but this time, it seems to only add it to the bag with £50 of SW lego...

Thats really crap. I picked up a small box of lego with spiderman in it. well, it didnt have him in it, someone had carefully opened it and took out the bag... I hope you were able to get it sorted out!

If that screengrab of the MTT is a hint at one being released ill be extremely happy! I missed the second one and kept missing good deals on ebay... please let it be coming out!!

I love it! Looks just like it could be a scene seen in a WW2 film! Do you have any close up detailed pictures of the church and tank? Can I also ask how/where you get the German WW2 soldier minifigs?

Im jealous! I want the TIE Interceptor!

Can't hurt to try, I would.

I think the X-Wing is a pretty damned decent microfighter. I was skeptical of MF's as a whole, but after having gotten the X-Wing for some reason I can't remember, its a pretty good build, nice parts, looks pretty good chibified and I love its little folding wings :P

With rumours of a new Slave 1 potentially coming out, I'd hld off on either until the rumours of Slave 1 release are either confirmed as truth or fiction.

The real question is what do you want it to have? ;)

Ahhh that looks nice! You have flexible toes, i always like that little touch! I think the far left and far right leg motors might need to be supported to the body or the weight of the head and body on the legs might try and twist the motors away from each other under the weight. A good thing to do would be to start off with buying pieces for one leg, then see how that stands. buy the other 3 and the leg motors, put them together and join them with a plate as though the body was on it and see how well it can support it simply standing. Apply weight to it to see how it reacts. Then you can work out if you need to add support anywhere and if it would need to be tied into the body or not. I also think a lot of the support will depend if you want an interior or not. That is where a lot of extra weight comes into it. No reason why the head couldnt have one though :p

I think you'll find mine is completely different in all aspects other than trying to achieve the same vehicle design, than Cavegod's AT-AT. Mine is slightly smaller as we have compared them together, as we have displayed both his and mine at the same event. https://www.flickr.c...157631753367794 https://www.flickr.c...04/10193597806/ As you can see, mine can stand, and the knees can be positioned to whatever angle I wish from the hips, down. The part you linked, is a good knee joint, however it is NOT strong enough by itself to support the weight that will be going onto it, as I have used two of these, and even then, they still flex slightly under the weight. However, that may be because I have a full interior, and so all that extra weight might make just 1 of those joints not be able to handle it? http://www.modelerma..._at-at_-060.jpg As you can see in this image, there is not a lot of detail to be captured. However, the detail that is in this picture, has been replicated well in his current design mainly on one side, as happens when working with plates facing a particular direction. He has done well with the other side in attempting this. The only other thing he could possibly do is do something similar to the way the 2 halves of the UCS B-Wing is held together to allow studs facing out on both sides, but I am not sure if this would keep with the thin-ness of the legs he is achieving. @Reflexes When people MoC AT-ATs, it always interests me how people do their own versions of the head, the rear greebles and the underbody leg motors mostly. I really like your head and the rear greebles look well done too! But I am unable to see the underside Do you have pictures of this? Stick at it though, it is most satisfying having the complete model right infront of you after finishing building it for the first time!

Ohhh! That looks really good! It is possible to fit an interior to it, as it looks similar size to mine! The shape of the head and body look really good, the leg shaping is well done too... But... they look maybe slightly too long? The hump on the head looks slightly too wide from the front to the back. I see you have the 'hip' parts not supported where the upper leg joins it, but free of the body. Im almost positive that will need some reinforcing support attached to the body with the size of the body and amount of bricks/plates thatll be on the body. If you want to streamline it at that size, you might have to compromise on detail, or rebuild the internal supporting structure. Judging from the good detail on the exterior, im assuming you havnt been slack in the design of the supporting interior structure so there might not be a lot you can actually change, without simply removing detail to attain a certain number of pieces at that size. Build it in real, see how it turns out then work on it from there. Mine has about 5500 pieces, has a complete interior, including hollow neck and head with detail, joints at the hip/thigh, knees and ankles and can still stand. Im sure yours will be fine!! If you do have any concerns about yours, send cavegod a message and im sure hell be happy to check it over. The lack of knee joint is a good thing as it only helps with stability. At that size, keeping with thin legs you wont manage knee joints and stability at the same time with knee joints that can flex. Anio's is a completely different size so will require different pieces to achieve the same results. The legs don't have too much detail on the studio model as it is, and I can already see most of the main detail has been attended to one way or another. Too much detail on something narrow as it is might actually ruin it, but it cant hurt to try as it is only in LDD at the moment.

I was a bit hesitant when I saw the first picture, I think because the empty space next to the pathway leading into it. But I saw the rest of it, and oh my, was I surprised! What an excellent playset you have designed! All the little rooms, are packed with so much nice detail, and they can be seperated as well! I think this has created a playset that lego could be proud to sell regardless of the whole child massacre scene, I really don't get why some people are so solidly against the fact TLG would produce a set because of it. This set depicts nothing of a child massacre and shows so much of the life that can be portrayed being alive! Excellent job!

*edited* nevermind :-P

Is it Slave 1 or 2 that is rumoured for UCS release this year?

Some how people always get hold of them early, perhaps from straight out the factory or some other sneaky inside way...

TIE bomber.... Why oh why havnt they done a tie bomber already??

They're just an assumption based on his own opinion. Nothing from that list has any weight behind potential.

Its interesting how those typical house bay windows, when used in a well laid out context can actually fit in extremely well! I can't wait to see the rest of this as I love everything about TIE fighters and a bay for them??!

Sources for these supposed rumours? Or is this just a 'hope list'?

I just hope they don't go down the route of too many playsets focusing on characters as the USP. I like vehicles :(
