  1. But why no socket Bayonets?
  2. If It's true, I'm wondering, What "Prince Charming" we're talking about, the one from Cinderella, or Snow White? I'd say the Cinderella one, since Cindy herself is also listed...
  3. It sure can also be Monaco flag, and if you flip it upside-down, you can make it flag of Poland
  4. @Nerd--With-A-Pencil: Ha, Nice, I really like your bios, I see you listened to my advice concerning the Emperor, and I really like the Tambourine player's bio, although now that I think about it, there should be a mention of Series 7 Fortuneteller, since they both are based on Gypsies/Romani people. @Actor Builder: Oh, I'm really sorry mate, it wasn't my intention to ignore your CSI bio, I just didn't notice it... Still, even though quite different from mine It's quite cool.
  5. @Nerd-With-A-Pencil: It's ok dude, nice biography. Anyways, Here comes the rest, starting with the Evil Queen bio: Mirror Mirror on the Wall, Who's the best minifigure of them all? Once Upon a Time there lived a beautiful Queen, who ruled over a well prospering Kingdom. But, alas, the Queen's vanity and jealousy over the beauty of other queens, princesses and duchesses have drove her to the path of evil and wickedness. She tried her hardest to stay the most fairest lady in the kingdom, nay, entire world, either by keeping her good looks with the help of black magic, or eliminating rival Maidens, using her calling card, the poisoned apples, yet still, her magic mirror always says there is still a prettier woman somewhere in the Lego Universe, like the Aztek Princess, or Kimono Girl. Green Boxer: Come on, Hit me, I DARE YOU. Just not in the face, please... While the Red Boxer prefers fair play and good sportsmanship, his Green counterpart is brutal and savage in his punches and jabs. The Green Boxer is really strong, and he hits hard, but he has one soft spot: his face. In fact, Green Boxer is very narcisstic, and cares only about protecting his handsome facade. In fact, he never wanted to be a pugilist, but a model, but everyone laughed at his dreams, and his questionable manliness, so instead he joined the most testosterone filled carreer of professional boxing. Bearded Woman: Yes, my beard is real, yes, it's quite itchy, and no, you can't touch it. The Bearded Woman is one of the main attractions in Lego City Circus, and she's pretty proud of her facial hair. Rumor has it, that she has the blood of Middle Zealand dwarves coursing through her veins, other say, that her impressive whiskers are the result of a curse. Curse or not, she has grown to like her beard, and will never shave it off. Everyday, she carefully grooms it with a brush, trims it a little bit, braids it, and sprays some perfume on it. She even proudly show it off at many Beard Conventions! Hipster Ugh, Collectable Minifigures are soooo Mainstream... The pretentious hipster despises everything that is "Mainstream", and tries to be as edgy and original as he can be, wearing thrift shop clothing, listening to the most obscure, indie music on his smartphone, and hanging out in his favourite coffee hop, sipping gluten-free, soy milk frappucino. But being a hipster is pretty hard nowdays, since hipster lifestyle is now being more and more popular, and slowly becomes Mainstream... Country Music Singer: Here's a lil' ditty for all you lonely cowboys 'ere... Country Music Singer is a wandering bard of the West, traveling from Town to Town, from Salloon to Salloon, with his trusty guitar as his only posession and companion. He sings the songs and ballads of the long lost Pioneer days and heroes of the Frontier. When you hear him croon, you can almost feel like you went back in time, to the era of the chivalrous cowboys, rightful sherriffs, noble natives and, of course, troublemaking desperados and bandits. Then, the Singer gets up from his barstool, pays for his drink, and walks away, towards the sunset, to his other destination. Dragon Trainer: No, Bad Dragon, don't breath fire here! Slaying a Dragon is hard, but befriending and training a Dragon is even harder. Dragon Trainer spent his whole life in a mountaintop fortress, taming and taking care of these majestic beasts. An apprentice of legendary Wizard Majisto, the Dragon trainer knows everything about Dragons, Drakes, Wyverns and Wyrms: Where they live, What do they eat, their powers, temperaments and needs, and he puts them to good use, taking care of dragon eggs, teaching baby dragons to fly and breath fire, and cleaning their scales, so when they grow up, they could join the elite ranks of Dragon Masters. Crime Scene Investigator: It seems the victim will be... Resting in Pieces... The Lego City Police has a competent CSI department, lead by this minifig. Even the tiniest speck of a clue won't escape The Crime Scene Investigator's keen eyes. Unfortunately, this professional field scientist has a tendency to quip witty one-liners during investigation. He just can't help it, even at the most serious crime scenes he has to make a sarcatic comment on the situation. At first, it was all funny, but his co-workers soon became weary of it. Now he tries to keep a straight face during the investigation, and not utter a word. Sensei: Remember: Your sword is just a weapon, a tool, true Warriors fight with their hearts, their minds, not with their steel. Living in secluded monastery, the wise Sensei was the teacher of the Kendo Warrior. Not only he is a Zen Master, but also a skilled warrior. When threatened, this Old, seemingly feeble minifigure turns into furious whirl of martial arts prowess, he is able to fend of even the mightiest foe. Still, the Sensei is a pacifist, he hates violence, and uses his staff only as a last resort. Instead he prefers to teach anyone who he deems worthy how to live in harmony with your surroundings, and the way of Discipline, Meditation and Butt-kicking. As for the rest on Minifigs, I pass them to Nerd-With-A-Pencil.
  6. Great Job Robert, I especially love the Emperor, Evil Queen and Dragon Trainer. Also I'm taking a note about the Sensei into consideration. As for the Bios, They'll come soon, I just got back from our summer house, and for now I need some rest and inspiration.
  7. Damn, Robert, now I'll have to think about a bio for her...
  8. I guess CMF would be a good place to start.
  9. That wasn't very nice. I understand that you have your own opinion about Bidea's MOC, but at least you could elaborate, why do you think it's, as you put it, "lame". Saying it's just "Lame" without any kind of constructive criticism is rude, childish and stupid. I mean c'mon man, how old are you, 5? This isn't how an AFoL behaves, you should be ashamed. Anyways, Unlike Lord Raphael up there, I think it's a nice little MOC, It's Impressive how you managed to make a ship solely with Mixels parts. And the Nixel Pirate is really cool. I also like the stern, very clever use of Lewt's legs.
  10. Well, I saw the Title, but your MOC is very true to the source material, And I see you made a reconstruction of the Palace, than recreated it's present state...
  11. I've been to Split, fantastic recreation of the Palace!
  12. Thank you Robert, as always, it was fun to write them down, the Paranormal Investigator is my favourite, he obviously was based on Fox Mulder from the X Files, so I just HAD to include the "I want to believe" reference right in the beginning, and I also referenced my own Basil the Bat theory. Also I liked the Idea of Lady Scarecrow being actually being the series 11 Scarecrow, so I decided to go with that. The Lake Fisherman and the Droid where the most difficult to give them bios, because as awesome as they are (I love the Droid) they were pretty generic. For Droid, Iwas just thinking, what is actually the difference between Droids and other Robots, and I got nothing, other than it's just a fancy term for Robots in Star Wars universe, but I didn't want to reference SW at all, since he didn't even remotely resembled the droids we know and love from Galaxy Far, far Away. As for the Fisherman, at first I wanted to go with Ron Swanson references, thus the "I'm a simple guy..." quote, but then I came up with the Dream within Dream Inception sillyness, and I went with that.
  13. And Here come the Bios: Archer: Bullseye! The archer is the master of the crossbow, he can solve any problem with a precicely aimed shot. Some folk even say his arrows never miss, and he could shoot an apple of a minifig's head, from 100 studs away, but the Archer himself says, that he could do it but will never do, because it's too dangerous. Holiday Elf Girl: Oh, how do I envy these kids, these toys are so nice... Holiday Elf Girl, just like her male counterpart work at Santa's Workshop every year, to bring toys and presents to children all over the world, but, as jolly as she is, she's also a little bit jealous about all the toys she have made, which will go to some random kids. She also would like to have a toy, at least one little doll, but she only can make toys for those who wrote a letter to Santa, so she decided to trick the system and wrote a letter herself. Now, she just can't wait till holiday, to see if it worked, although it came to her notice, that she was ordered to make a plush bunny, just like one she always wanted to have... Rodeo Clown: YEEEHAW! Who wants to be a cowboy, if you can be a Clown! The rodeo clown may seem like a silly doofus, with his oversized boots and hat, but in fact he's a truly professional stuntsman and caballiero extraordinaire. Why is he just a clown, and not a real cowboy then, you ask? The answer is simple: he always wanted to be a clown, and entertain folks at the rodeo with his crazy antics. He just likes it like that, and who are we to judge? Droid: I am a droid, not a robot, not an android, not a Cyborg but DROID! The newest creation of Robotics Engineer, the Droid is a versatile machine with state of art AI, and many gadgets hidden inside his shiny hull. Although, the droid is a stickler for robotic semantics and terminology, he always needs to point out that he's in fact, a droid, and not some other form of mechanical being, even though he really don't know what the difference really is. Cinephile: Whoa, look at that shot, it perfectly works here, and the lighting is spot on! Cinephile is a true conneseur of motion picture. You can always see him in the theatre, munching on his popcorn, and commenting how good the movie is, or writing film reviews on his blog at home. He loves all the movie genres, Action, Comedy, Romantic, Dramas, Sci-Fi, Animation, you name it. He also knows everything about the cinematography, from history of the moving pictures, to how a 3D projector works, to the inner politics of Hollywood. He even met the Hollywood Starlet herself, and his treasured posession is the Piece of Resistance movie prop, signed by Emmet and Wyldstyle! Paranormal Investigator: The truth is out there, somewhere... The Paranormal Investigator wants to believe, that we are not alone in the universe. And considering the sheer number of LEGO Space themes, he sure is right, yet no one believes him. During his career in investigation bureau, he solved the most bizzare cases, and unearthed many conspiracies. He revealed Evil Wizard of Fantasy Era being the ancestor of the infamous villain Ogel, he discovered that Basil the Batlord was a vampire, he found the long lost themes and sets that never seen the light of the day, and yet, he never saw any alien, or even a glimpse of a flying saucer, but he won't give up in his mission. Aztec Princess You want my father's gold? Then come and get it! Beautiful Aztec Princess is not your typical maiden in distress, oh, no, in fact, she is the one, who causes distress to anyone who would dare to attack her father King Montezuma's kingdom. She in fact is the leader and commander of the fiercest Aztec Warriors. Whenever she appears in her full battle-dress and spear in hand, she strikes fear in the hearts of even the most greedy conquistadors. Lake Fisherman: I'm a simple guy, I like fishing, cause It's so relax... ing... zzzzz... Where's a lake full of fish, you know, that the Lake Fisherman will be there. Standing on a pier, or sitting in a boat, trusty rod in hand, and his eyes plastered at the bobber. Unfortunately, the monotonous swinging of the boat, calm sounds of the nature, and total serenity of the lakeside make this fig zone out. While sleeping, the Lake fisherman is dreaming of... Fishing in the lake, which in turn make him fall asleep in a dream and so on. But in his dreams within dreams within dreams he is catching really huge fish, and when he wakes up completely, it turn out that the fish he dreamed of is now unexplainally flailing at his feet. Mardi Gras King: Long live the Mardi Gras! Long live Me, the King! It's no suprise Mardi Gras King loves Mardi Gras, the celebrations, the parades, the masquerades, and he always gets chosen as the king. Every single year in in New Orlegoans, he wins the royal election. Why? No one knows, maybe it's because he looks great in green and purple? Or maybe it's because he has something of royality in him? Or maybe, just maybe, he has the most fun during the celebration. Even the King himself doesn't know, but that doesn't stop him from being the master of ceremony, and rounding up minifigs of all ages to join the party. Gondolier O Leeeeeeeegoooo Miooooo, Sta in frooonta Meeeee... When he was just a young lad, The Gondolier was diagnosed with a weird condition: instead of talking normally, he communicates in operatic voice singing, if you ask him the time, he'll sing you a whole aria about how it's half past ten. Because of that, he couldn't find any job, except in the Opera, and as a Gondolier in Venice. He chose the second option, because, quite frankly he doesn't like public performances. Rapper Girl Yo Homie, don't piss me off, or I'll diss you off! Rapper girl is a one tough gal. She have always dreamt of being the biggest and the baddest gangsta in da hood, so she decided to achieve her goal, by battling other rappers, using witty responses, perfect rhyming and timing, and the nastiest disses her mic could handle. And she did that while almost never using any dirty or cuss word, after all, she's a young lady from well mannered house... Mythological Hero Sigh, why can't people and monsters get together? This legendary warrior has made name of himself, by travelling whole antique world, and having adventures so epic, and so numerous you couldn't include them in one short minifig description. Yet, the mythological Hero never, ever, killed a man... or monster. The Gorgon's head on his shield is just a print, in fact he was giving the Gorgon hairstyling lessons, he also had a dinner with the Cyclops family, and helped Minotaur to trim his hedge maze. The hero is in fact a pacifist, and belives, that people and mythological monsters can be friends, and live in harmony. Cannonball Man: Hold on a second, I'll be right there... KA-BOOM! Cannonball Man started as a stuntsman in the LEGO circus. He soon realized, that shooting yourself from a huge cannon is the most efficient way of traveling, all you need is some gunpowder, and good aiming skills. Since then, the Cannonball Man decided to go everywhere using Cannon, he shoots himself to work, to the park, on vacation, to his grandma's house, literraly everywhere. Teacher: Ok children, now, if a single brick is 3 tiles high, and you have built a 45 brick tall tower, what was the first Lego Castle built? The teacher has a vast knowledge of many scientific fields, and her goal is to past that knowledge to the next generations of minifigures, so they can be anything they want in the future. And since she's teaching everything from Math to Social Sciences, she gets a little mixed up which class she's actually giving. But still, her students love her, because she can past knowledge in an easy and interesting way, and she never gives bad grades. Refferee Hold it! That was a fault, I guess... The refferee never was a fan of any sport, he became a refferee, because all his ancestors were refferees. He doesn't know, or even care about the game rules, and depends on other refferees. Clearly, he's not good at his job, but what he's really good at, are video games. His greatest dream is to become an E-sport Refferee, so he could combine his family tradition, and his passion. Scarecrow Lady Well, this is embarassing... You might think that this is a brand new minifigure, but at closer inspection you realize, that under those pink overalls and cute hat, hides a familliar face of series 11 Scarecrow. Apparently, the farmer's daughter wanted to play dress-up with him, putting him in a girly outfit. Naturally, the scarecrow wasn't very happy about it, but as dedicated to his job he was, he stood perfectly still, as he always did, and patiently waited for the farmer's daughter to put his makeup. And now he's stuck with his, or rather her new look, a poor victim of little country fashionista...
  14. It's EggySLAV, not slave. Or just call me Eggy. Other than that, thanks, W may collab sometime, you'll draw the figs, and I'll write their bios...
  15. I've got inspired to do some bios for your minifigs, tell me how you like them: Gymnast: No one can move like me! . The gymnast is the most acrobatic minifigure in Lego universe, she can fit into spaces smaller than four studs wide, and contort her body in imposible ways, some say she can even bend her limbs in elbows and knees! She is also very skilled with tight-rope and hula hoop, no wonder she's the biggest attraction in the Lego circus. Town Cryer Hear Ye, Hear ye! Before Internet, there were newspapers. And before newspapers there were Town Criers. This Minifig continues the traditions of this noble profession. Everyday, he puts on his snazzy colonial outfit and tricorne hat, and with his trusty bell, he announces the King's decrees, news, and local gossip on the streets of Brickburg. Even though Brickburg is a modern town and everyone know what's going on from the news feed in their mobile apps, the Town Cryer believes in his mission. Crossing Guard Stop! Minifigures are walking here! Lego City is full of vehicles, speeding along the road, and giving pedestrian minifigs hard time when crossing the street. Luckilly, Crossing Guard is there to help them. This selfless fellow will do anything to warrant traffic safety to minifigs of all ages, from schoolchildren to any feeble old lady wanting to cross. Not only that, but the Crossing guard helps animals as well. He's maybe the only one who knows why did the chicken cross the road... Harpist Thank you, Thank you. And now I shall play "Through Fire and Flame", for Harp... A great musician and world class virtuoso, the Harpist have amassed many fans, and performed at the most prestigious music halls in the world. Yet, the classical repertoire quickly bored her, so she decided to arrange for harp works from other genres, like Jazz, Pop and even Heavy Metal! Since then many fellow minifig musicians asked for collaboration. Currently, she's working on her new album "Strings of Anarchy", featuring Punk Pocker and Rocker Girl. Galactic Traveler Tally Ho, Lads! Let's get this ol' rocket for a ride beyond the final frontier! Unlike these other super futuristic interstellar rapscalions, the Galactic Traveler likes to stick to the good old traditions of space travel. Donning his bubble helmet and retro raygun, this rugged minifig had many adventures back in the days of catode lamp computers, airtube communication systems and spandex jumpsuits. But nowdays, every technology he knew and considered to be next gen, is now laughably obsolete, and replaced with digital AI systems, super advanced bionics and cybernetics, and holograms, lots and lots of holograms. But still, he's a really brave minifig, and looking for new adventures, even though his ship doesn't have hyperspace drive, and his onboard computer every now and then needs to have it's tape reels changed, he somehow always can outsmart his more technologically advanced foes. Southern Businessman Livin' off the Land is Livin' Large. Ain't that right, Pardner? Southern Businessman is the owner of the biggest ranch south of Fort Legoredo. In fact, he's the owner of everything what is the biggest in the wild west: biggest land, biggest mansion, biggest cattle herd, biggest horse, biggest gold-plated guns, biggest hat, biggest moustache, you get the idea. Every day, he wakes up from the biggest bed, takes a bath in the biggest bathtub, dresses up in the biggest wardrobe, eats the biggest bowl of cereal, while drinking coffee from the biggest cup, and then he sits in the biggest chair by the biggest table in his biggest office, and plots how to make big, BIG money. Did I mention he has obsession about big stuff? Mime Girl ..................................................................................................... Like her male counterpart, Mime Girl never ushers a word from her mouth, and communicates solely in gestures and grimaces. However, she's somehow more expressive while doing so, her impressions and routines almost feel real. That one time she nearly suffocated, while putting herself in an invisible box. From now on, she tries to control her Mime powers, and she's making great progress, lately she only tumbled once from imaginary strong wind. Troll Me Troll, You Mad? The ugly, brutish troll lived peacefully, being mostly harmless, just harrasing from time to time some unlucky travelers who tried to cross his bridge, but all of that changed, when the Troll discovered something called the Internet. Since that day, all hell broke loose in the World Wide Web, the mischevious Troll went from forum to forum, posting nonsense gibberish, spamming emoticons, and insulting other forum members, and the more angry replies he got, the stronger he felt. The moderators an admins valiantly fought the pesky creature online, but when they banned him from one site, he showed up on the other. If you ever be annoyed by a Troll in the web, remember that this guy lives a lonely life under the bridge, and he just wants your attention. Lifesaver Guy Who wants to go swimming? Lifesaver Guy just loves water, in the summertime he spends all day at the beach, joyfully splashing and frolicking in the sea, and it wouldn't be weird if not for one fact: HE. CAN'T. SWIM. That's right, if it wasn't for his yellow lifesaver, he would sink like a brick, and by that i don't mean Lego brick, but a literal one. This is why he never takes off his inflatable duck buddy, even if the water level is at his ankles, but now that he's taking swimming lessons at the Lego City Community Pool, with alot of determination, and many Lifesguard's interventions, he's trying his best to stay afloat without any help. Puppeteer Hahaha, and you thought you're in control? Don't be fooled by these colourful puppets and squeaky voices he makes, the Puppeteer is a true evil Mastermind, disguised as a wandering one-man theater. Just before you know it, the Pupeteer will bedazzle you, then manipulate you, and in the end you'll become a mindless dummy. And it will be him, who'll be pulling the strings. Some even say, that all of Puppeteer's puppets are representing his former victims. Some even say that the puppets ARE his victims, turned into dolls by dark magic. Or maybe he's just a harmless street performer, entertaining both young and old. Skydiver Girl Here I go! WEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeeee!!!! Skydiver Girl have had many rises and falls, quite literally. Unlike her friend the Skydiver, she never linger, and the moment the plane's door open, she's rushing to jump, just like that. Many times in her adrenaline rush she nearly forgot to put on her parachute, but luckilly others stopped hr at time. Her life philosophy is to not waste time on anything, and to get to action as fast as possible. Architect No, no, no, no, Red 2x4 brick goes here, and this tile goes here! You might have thought, that all the Lego buildings are conceptualized by professional designers back in Billund, Denmark, but the truth is, that behind every castle, house, or police station you have built, stands this minifigure. The Architect is an expert in her line of work, every detail, every brick placement is meticulously planned, and dictated by her. Girraffe Guy: It's not easy, being that tall... Girraffe Guy likes Giraffes, so he dresses like one. And that's all you can say about him. Other than that he has a hard time everytime he tries to pass through doorways. Organ Grinder No, bad monkey, don't throw that! Taking a stroll through the Lego City Park, it's hard not to hear the jolly Organ Grinder, playing his instrument. And it's harder not to laugh from the antics of his pet monkey, dancing and jumping around in a silly costume. But beware, for as hilarious and cute the primate might be, it is also a mischevious little beast. The Grinder bought it from an old pirate, and tried to tame the monkey, so it would behave, but to no avail. Oh, well, just enjoy the music, and keep an eye on your wallet and jewellery. Piper Why do I have this feeling, like I'm being followed? No one knows from where the Piper came from, or who he is, but one thing is certain: He's an expert in vermin extermination, whether it's mice, rats, voles, locust or even frogs, that are plagueing your kingdom, the crafty Piper is here, with his trusty magic flute, to lure the nasty creatures out of the city walls. Just remember to pay him, I heard Piper's music also works on children of ungrateful, greedy townsfolk... Robotics Engineer Legobot, Initiate Make_me_a_Sandwich Protocole. Robotics Engineer built and programmed prototype models of all Collectable Minifigures Robots, Mechas, and Androids. Most of his creations are obedient mechanical friends and servants, but some turned evil, due to inevitable bugs and errors in the programming. that's why he coined 3 Laws of Mindstorms programing: A robot may not injure a minifigure or, through inaction, allow a minifigure to come to harm. A robot must obey the orders given it by minifigures except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws.
  16. Concerning the Galactic Traveler, you wouldn't even need new mould for his helmet/head, you could just use two of these: And a regular minifig head... Still I like these ideas, my favourites are organ grinder (Classic Pirates Monkey FTW!), Puppeteer (I love his "Evil Puppet Master" looks, plus that mini puppet Robert8 is just adorable), and Town crier (I need more 18th century minifigs, plus I love the Tricorne/Ponytail combo, BrickWarriors, make it happen!), and Robotics Engineer (is it just me, or the robot look a lot like EVE from Wall-E?).
  17. I think you botched calculating the height of nanofig, on your chart it says it's 4,48 cm high, which is the same as minidoll, and it can't be right.
  18. Yes to both, but you need to apply lots of strength to do it, and in case of arms, be careful to not crack the sides of the torso.
  19. Kinda brings to mind Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, It has that certain grotesque, yet charming aesthetic about it...
  20. Yeah, and it's totally random, when you close and then open LDD, the color combination that worked before might won't work, and vice-versa...
  21. Hey Guys, Look what I found: CLASSIC SPACE LOGO TORSO PRINT. Both Classic, and Benny's Tattered one...
  22. HAAAALLELUYAH! HAAALLELUYAH! HALLELUYAH! HALLELUYAH! HALLEEEELUYAH! Finally! It is a GLORIOUS Day for LDD users!
  23. The Gingerbread man is obviously Limp Bizkit,The Police is self explanatory (The male officer clearly is Sting), and the middle one, I have no idea...
  24. So, Benjamin Button was a minifig! Another Mystery Solved!
