  1. I have about 5 I think. I get the impression the plastic of the seperator is not te best. It dents so very quickly when I'm untiling from bricks and plates, that I can't use one seperator for removing tiles anymore. I'd prefer the grip of the red crowbar, but It's so small to use.
  2. They got punched holes so they can fit into ring folder binders. When I was younger, I saw lot's of kids/their parents doing It. I guess It's a Euro thing. :P Speaking of ring folder binders, I keep them in A4 sized plastic folders, sorted at theme. Without punch holes.
  3. I started sorting last weekend and I keep It at two colours over two sizes. For example: Cold light grey with cold dark grey - Small pieces (2x6 and 4x4 max) and large pieces from each other apart. I sort elements that I own in large quantities seperate. Big plates in all colours are seperated because of their size that keeps getting in the way while searching for other big elements. I keep this storing solution for now, as long as I safe enough room, yet quite practical searching for elements.
  4. I like Ultra Agents so far; great models and great parts.
  5. A far as I'm concerned, there aren't any in Amsterdam except for the toy shops that are already mentioned. You have a better change in smaller cities in The Netherlands. It's ofcourse strange when comparing to let's say big German cities that have a LEGO Shop or LEGO Discovery Center, but that's how It is for now.
  6. I was thinking the other day about resorting my LEGO elements. The point is, I don't have much space to store all my elements where I live and I was thinking to sort It to color and two sizes: small and big elements. Sorted LEGO at color can be bothersome during building, but I assume you create much more space. At the moment It's by main type according to Bricklink: Bricks, Bars, Hinges, Minifigures, Wind Screens, etc. So what's a better solution when you prefer economically space in your room but want to have a decent organized system? Because sometimes I'm thinking to end this hobby, because I don't have the space to store It. I hope that will never be the case ofcourse...
  7. Instant teleporting to wherever I wish to go.
  8. Nice, some interesting tomb designs!
  9. Great structure and scene. The explosions and fire are thankfully over the top.
  10. I like the shape of this train and It's blackness.
  11. I think hate is a strong word, maybe people are overall dissapointed. I think an online videoreview series is a cool thing, however I think The BrickShow lacks the profesionalism to connect to viewers who want that 'extra'. They should spent more time acting, filming and cutting out unappealing nonsense. Avoiding hiccups, long silences, being realistically informed about the set and license they review. Some little resource is better then trusting your own knowledge. And just because they want to appeal only to childeren and ignoring profesionalism, is an argument I'd like to trhow out of the window. Anyway, they are free to do and go as they please. Faking 'likes' and 'thumb ups' to get popular (and probably money), is as far as I'm concerned not done in general.
  12. I was aware of that, but that's how TLG rolls with tax increasement and I suppose we have to deal with It as citizens of the Netherlands.
  13. You should take a look at the inventories each set has at bricklink.com and compare It to LEGO's Pick a Brick has to offer. As far as I can see and can tell from your list, not every brick/part is available in official sets these days. Like the pigtails hair piece, windows and doors. But they can be easily replaced with modern (replaced) parts.
  14. Really? Normally It's a €30 mark up (X-Wing, Orthanc). Because of 21% tax in the Netherlands opposed to the regular 19% in Europe. Just go buy It in Oberhausen...
  15. At the moment, I don't care about LEGO Star Wars as a fan and I'm tired of It nor I'm interested in the new movies. But at least LEGO Star Wars is a lot more fun to collect then collecting Hasbro action figures which can be very expensive and suffers from shitty pegwarmers. Currently, I'm looking for parts which LEGO Star Wars has plenty of that are versatile to my building needs. I still love the OT movies a lot though.
  16. I like how you did the cockpit. :)
  17. Have you tried doing It your self, before you asked here?
  18. That works very well, looks very nice.
  19. I really, really like the Cop Car! It's aesthetic is just right.
  20. Thanks for your The LEGO Movie reviews so far, Clone O' Patra! Interesting parts and colour from what I can tell, the big smooth slopes are very nice. I think this set has the best of both models.
  21. I'm interested. August is still far away though.
  22. Good work on the details and welcome to Eurobricks!
  23. LOL what a thing to say!
