Palin Jax

RUMOR: TIE/ru (Radar Undetectable Multi-Mission Over-coated Reflec); standard TIE MITH: TIE/mi (Multipurpose Intelligence Tracker Hunter); TIE Interceptor, only more compact and with folding wings MITHOS: TIE/ms (Multipurpose Intelligence Tracker Hunter Operations Special); or SPECTER: TIE/sp (SPECial Transporter Equipment Reflec); Possible moniker for TIE Bomber WHISPER: (Warfare HIgh SPEed Reflec); Reflec version Z-74 speeder bike! In the TIE Army Thread, it is my covert operations intelligence gathering platform... The MITH was really a response to the Stealth-X a few weeks ago, but I needed to flesh out the wings. And I wanted a TIE so compact that it could fit on just about any small frigate, maybe even in a Lambda Class shuttle. I am now tackling the Bomber concept... Most likely to be dubbed MITHOS or SPECTER but I want it to be able to transport the Z-74. Maybe this could be a special poll... just leave your thoughts then for which designation you prefer! The helmets, unfortunately, are not custom casts... but paint overs... Thanks for all the great comments thus far! I guess membership in the 501st "Shadow Fist" has it's... Perks. Quick Edit http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=307268 ... When public, enjoy!!!

Well folks... I finally got the last pieces I needed to complete my first MOC. At long last, the RUMOR is The folder isn't public yet... But if, in a few days... You've heard the MITH

Since this is a dream team string, I'll toss out my personal pick 1) Clone Marshals Backpack *wub* ... Each Clone Marshal (Bly, Gree, Cody, Bacarra, Neyo, Etc...) With a distinct vehicle in the afore mentioned personal color scheme. Most like new speeder bikes :'-) . 2) 501st Battle Pack... Commander Appo, Coms Officer, and 2 Troopers with a speeder bike :'-) of some kind. 3) 501st Shadow Pack... Above mentioned in black and silver highlights... with stealth speeder bike :'-) And the last.... 4) Sniveling commoners battle pack >:-) ... Think fodder ala battle pack... For GP... Gungans... but Ewoks, Wookies... anything and everything you know you gonna miss even though you are supposed to be the best the universe has to offer... argh... with a speeder bike :'-) :-P

The question would be more properly posed in regards to any non-jedi person. Obi and Ani, at this point in the clone wars are, therefore, how could they refuse, and hence their excuss ;-) . Now... for a Sith >:-) ! August Fifteenth, 2008... A day that will live... in infamy!

Just curious. 2 questions. Would anyone like me to continue writing? And a bit of a snag. I have kind of rethought Palin's Charater a bit. I would have to start from scratch? This would basicly wipe out the existing story, but I have gotten more into the whole Clone Commando, Shadow Trooper thing. So, if anyone cared for this post, please answer with positive feedback. Also, consider contributing. Thanks!

Jax to The Force: CM-2008, I hardly think you need a transport to get across the room, but I will humor you.(Hands TF a segway.) Now, if you won't be needing me, I must see to other... plans. Thanks again for your work with the Admiral. (I know you said you where on Fonder, but the Admiral was brought onboard the Event Horizon during evac. But great responses! *sweet* ) To Admiral TK: Sir, I can not do that. You are a Hero to the cause. Lord *vader* 's right hand man. But I will do all that is within My power to help you. You must focus on the now. With each breath, drink in your hatred of those Rebel scum. With each exhale. feel it as though it courses down the necks of your enemies. I cannot promise you much, but the little I can is revenge. You see, dear Admiral... Revenge might be a dish best served in Space, where it is truly cold. But a brand is red hot when it strikes it's mark, and Our Master can use that scalding flame to strike fear into those accursed Rebel banthas. The Empire shall leave it's mark on the universe... And the TIE army will be at it's helm... And you will be it's rudder...

A nerf... >:-) :-D ... Not! A Taun Taun *wub* ... but only with a whampa... to lay the smack down on that roddy-poh, candy @$$.... Thats what The Commander is Sayin! And maybe an Umpha Lumpa... doppity do!!!

Jax to Admiral TK: Sir, that is a difficult question to answer. You see, you are neither, neither are you both. You are a conundrum, half the man you used to be, yet twice the measure of any man before, save one. You are a hybrid, a man within a machine, drive by the Force. We can't explain it, but hopefully with time CM-2008 will be able to assist you. When you have regained your balance, Lord *vader* requests your presences. It is hard to know the moods of the Dark Lord of the Sith, but if I may, what seemed the last vestige of his humanity expressed joy at you continued existence. We therefore have spared no expense to raise your tattered flesh from the cold embrace of death. The 501st some time ago on Utapau uncovered and retrieved the burned out husk of one General Grievous, and from those forgotten remains, we have fashioned as it where your cybernetic limbs. My hope for you now, is for you to adapt to the changes within your body. As to your mortal appendages, even our vastly superior medical techniques could not resurrect your fried, fractured limbs from that grave. Be glad you still breath with your own lungs. What I fear now is that your mind will be tempted to stay locked in that catatonic state you have been in since we rescued you, save for your brief message to our master. Rest easy now, Admiral. You are Alive. Jax to the Force: CM-2008, I need you to look over some articles we retrieved on our last mission. I want you to glen any additional information that you can. Good Luck

Commander Jax to Lord *vader* : I hesitate to mention him, mi Lord, because he is untested, young, brash, and unexperienced. But he shows promises and persistence. I detest making you want, but I will... accelerate his training. Please be patient, and I will see to this myself. Commander Jax to canadianD: CR-2408, report to me at once. I have a mission in mind for you. If you pass this test, I will make my recommendations for your advancement. COMSCAN(Event Horizon): CT-2653(Inertia), Stand by at your location. We have a detachment on it's way for extraction of the medical equipment. CM-2008 is indisposed at the moment. We also recommend you report to your Commanding Officer via your chain of command on the find. It is always best to utilize the chain of command in all situations. The Commander sends his congratulation on your discovery, however. Also, he sends his warm regards to your pod mates CTS-1621 (VBBN) and CTS-1950 (Volitio).

Jax to THE-FORCE: Glad to have you aboard. Permission granted. We have allocated your phase 1 armor to an upgrade Reflec modification, with decals of Imperial Medical Symbols with white pattern marking your indoctrination into the 501st. Welcome to the Shadow Fist. You will assistant Admiral TK through his difficult rehabilitation as he adjusts to his Cybernetic limbs and implants. Now this isn't bed pans and broom sticks here Medic. I expect you to actual help him regain his senses. He went through a very traumatic ordeal, and there is a part of him still trapped within his mind. I know the casing might be a slight distraction, but remember, He is a full ranked Admiral, and as such, your conduct must reflect that. Let me introduce you. Jax to Admiral TK: Sir, your new assistant, CM-2008. He will also respond to THE FORCE.

Comscan to Jax: Sir, we are picking up a signal from the Gelgelar System. Imperial Intelligence has been their for some time investigating a staging point XQ5 Hormuuz... It is most likely a Rebel hospital. We believe that was the last known point that renegade pilot Lord Sylp was headed to before the scent went cold. Currently, a strike time under the command of General Windu is in the area, leaded by VBBN. Pilot Inertias has request backup. Your orders Sir? Jax to Comscan: Let em know we got their backs. Xavier, dispatch Tyrant at breakneck speed. I want Her on scene quick for extraction. Cannor, get your wings ready for rapid deployment. Once we enter the atmosphere... Cannor to Jax... Sir, thats a bit risky... and hasty. You want to exit hyperspace caught in the gravitational field of an M-class planet. Jax to Cannor... Event Horizon is just another pretty moniker, it is the "Event Horizon". Time for a shakedown anyway. The new engines will preform as specified. Of that I have total trust. Jax to *vader* : Mi Lord, do you wish to witness first hand? I must head down to the med bay to see how our guest is handling his new Cybernetic limbs. Comscan to Inertia: Hold you position. Avoid unnecessary engagements. If possible, confine any classified information for further investigation. The Commander applauds your efforts. Jax to General Windu(via COMCH):{basically a relay of the proceeding conversations, so you are aware your men are engaged in pursuit, and keeping you abreast of the situation} Your men are preforming admirably.

Errr... Maybe not *yoda* ... Al Gore just sent a Hologram from Hoth with some really bad news. Seems all those nasty AT-AT's & AT-ST caused uncontrolable Global Warming, hence Lego felt complelled that they needed another Hoth set, hence the background for the Set. The good news, is that the Whampa's have elected Al Gore... as lunch... :-D :-D :-D

Sorry, thought I clarified it enough. The chess boards themselves would be buildings, with the roofs serving as the boards. The question becomes how to decorate the base of the board to look like the locations. I guess another approach could be to make this into a box, with the board inside, Like an arena... With Cardboard inserts or even bricks with prints that when assemble make a picture. That approach would only need to be one side or a one picture backboard scene. To add more fun to it, Lego could make the bricks loosely interchange picture points, so you could literally assemble other scenes. As a collector, I would ex specially like this approach. While at times I agree with your post, in my opinion, these sets would be ultra expensive and thus limited, hence the need of having all the unique characters. This would be good for your approach however, because Lego, ingenious capitalist as they are, would just love spreading out love with these newly developed characters into other sets. You could have your cake, we could have ours, and everyone could eat all they could afford to do. A win/win for all... And even still, bricklink would still afford yet others the chance to get theirs. Now if we could get it past the Hasbro-ists!

Hmmm... here is a trick suggestion for Lego then. It would be expensive, and would be for limitedruns... but I know we ave proven to Lego we are will to pay for something if we really want it... So here goes. Lego could build the chess board to reflect a "building" from each film 1)Theed Palace *sweet* or Pod Race Arena >:-( 2) 8-| Dah... THEE Arena *wub* 3) *wub* Mustafar or 8-

Ir.. did you read the above posts... Sam89 already has stated this is a custom and trooperdavinfelth clarified. If you had this as an avatar you should have known that. Fans must have made it and given it to Her as a gift. And what a gift guys. Lovely work gentleman *y* ... it's that platform that makes it look so real and good. If there is a God gifted custom molder out there, I would suggest making up some of these bases... and maybe tackling the board backing for another idea!

To canadianD(Comscan Event Horizon) Via IMPCOM Ch: (Classified Secret) Report to Event Horizon for assignment. You have been transfered by Imperial Mandate into the Shadow Corps under the command of Commander Jax of the 501st. You are assigned the rank of "Commando/Trainee". If you are as capable as you dossier suggests, Commander Jax will recommend you for advancement to "Shadow Commando".

I hope that by posting in this, that I am not adding my support to it. I know that you are looking to participate in the TIE army thread. This post was unnecessary just by the sheer lack of support it recieved initially. While it was good that you first looked for an alternative post instead of rushing headlong into a new post, of which I commend you, you migt first want to give the official TIE army thread another whack. Remember, by posting in that tread, you keep it alive. We are always looking for good directions. Believe me, if what you are doing in your posting sparks a cool note, others will follow. Just be patient, and report to one of the leaders, which, if you read back through the post, will become apparent.

Even if you could confirm that, I doubt many here would hang up their hopes for 3. Regardless, right now, Lego is seriously going to be stressed with just get out the stuff for the Clone Wars. Think of the endless remakes, not to mention new craft at their disposal. Then there is the up and coming living action series. If Lego is lucky, they could literal live off Lego for the next ten years. Which undoubtedly would be sad for many of the other hopefuls awaiting the glorious return of a Pirates lines. At least Lego has, and to their benefit, tackled head on the lagging Castle and City lines. Space, well, in my opinion, will be tied up with Star Wars. I really don't consider the Life on Mars a capable filler, though it is a good solid line in it's own right. When I define space, I am taking Futron, Blacktron, Space Police, and that like. Now, back to the point. I think that the "KOTOR" line could be done in this way. A shop-at-home or exclusive line, you pick the store. Each release cycle, Lego could unleash two models in a "Limited Edition" type situation. BTW, their are tons of great MOC's out on the net for this line. Most of these posts talk of older, more seasoned(another word for wrinkly :-P ) veterans of the RPG genre. But I think that kids, who might have seen their parents play the games, or maybe just talk about them, would love to swoosh some of those ships around. I would bet, not guarantee, that Lego will look at this option closer to 3's release, which according to rumors out on the net is in the works. Just look at "The Force Unleashed" Rogue Shadow as the test bed.

I went to the web address from the photo. It appears to be Saak Ti's, or rather Orli Shoshan's personal website. I would post the link, but you guys can figure it out too. What a fox... hubba, hubba. But anyway, I would venture a guess that this is for the individual actress as a gift, but I am hoping ;-) . Really hoping :'-) . I think maybe a little digging on the net my flesh out more of these pics, so heres to looking. Shaak Ti on!!!

Lord *vader* : We have unearthed a plethora of pre-imperial data proceeding the Galactic Civil War on body/ robotic cybernetic replacement operations and procedure. With your permission, and vastly far more antiquated knowledge on the subject, I will respectfully request your input on how to... fix... Admiral TK. We have now full stabilized his major motor functions. His respiratory and circulatory systems appear to be normal, but digestion and excretory functions may be a problem( >:-) ). It appears he has lost his stomach for Corillian ale, but couldn't give a crap less. A strange development, mi Lord. No one has been able to ascertain how, but it appears that he has... bonded more acutely to the force. This again is more an adaption for his body and mind to overcome the stresses of so much loss of limb. We would also request a medic to assist Admiral TK after the operation as it is... difficult to function after the many radical surgeries it will require to bring the Admiral back online. (TK, you might want to try a new sigfig for later... one with some robotic limbs, or maybe PM *vader* with where you might want to take your character)

canadianD You might want to read a bit back to get the back story :'-( . My Second In Command is Cannor Jax, who also is my Wing Commander(He is a NPC or Non-Player Character). Basically, just post to him and I will respond. As to story, it would also be good for you to see how others have posted in order to post first. It is also good to only post in character in the actual chat. The story lines we are in very fluid, so just follow the currents of what are in the posts and you should do fine.

Commander Jax to Lord *vader* : Well, mi Lord, that is a tricky question. (how much damage has been done to you TK?) He appears to be awake, but I do not understand why he isn't responding to you. Our therapy treatment should work. Guess I will just turn up the volume. Stand back... its gonna get loud! (cheesy Steve Vai line added because"The Audience is Listening" X-D !)

A bought another Stormie BP. 8-| Guess what? :-$ I'm going to buy more BP's the next time I go out :-D . Army building On! BTW, Good thing there aren't a lot of BP'er up here. Hoping to one day clean house on a clearence sale!
