  1. No KhoRne !!! 18
  2. Sais the guy that is able to go the theater as often as he wishes for 20 euro the month.... >:( Sooooooory, its 18
  3. Guys, I said that as a joke !!!!! (oops just quoted myself *wacko* ) !!! Lets not start our own "War of the Posts" :D Yes Sarg, I was deeply saddened and heartbroken by your story :'(
  4. The convention starts tonight, so I expect pics to show up tomorrow !!!!!!!
  5. This little expedition has some good points and bad points: I shall start with the bad points !! Miss Darkie, Mister Athos, Mister Akkhraziel and Mister Jipay, would you be so kind to use the knife and tear some of the towels that are in the kitchen in order to prepare a bandage for poor Mister Kulo who injured himself ???? Your help is very much appreciated !!!! A second negative point is that the potatos are rotten !!!!! Now the good point is that we have can food !!!!! We shall eat my friends !!! Some thoughts about the unknow: Mister Brickster, are the vegetables eatable ?? How injured is Mister Kulo ?? How badly damaged is the ladder ??? Can we all climb up ??? Do the 9 barrils contain anything inside ??
  6. Come again Jon ??? :D ;)
  7. KhoRne, are you sure its a helmet ?????? It looks like red hair to me which makes no sense !!!!!! *wacko*
  8. Around 18 a day viewing my stats, so I think I can qualify for the n1 option :D
  9. Very well put SuivieD, but I do not agree with you !!!!! A lot of toy brands have put "colored" people as a marketing strategy to appeal to the broader audience possible !!! TLC just followed that trend which is not per se reprehensible !!!! Nowadays, its important for kids to identify to the toys they buy !! Its not because TLC sells "colored" MFs that every kid will turn to racists !!!! Also playing the devil's advocate, having a single color MF can be viewed as communism (everybody is equal... an ideology which led to more than 80 Million deads...). Its funny to notice that this whole debate started with fleshtone MFs. Nobody raised the point with the black MFs (NBA sets, Ambulance driver in Spidey) and the asian MFs (adventurers).
  10. Guys, did you read this thread at all ??? All these issues have been addressed :D :P
  11. I am more than willing to explore the depth of the mansion !!!! Shall I go down the ladder fist ???
  12. I have to disagree with you here Sarg, in real life people have different skin colors, and different shades within the same color; and in the Lego life, the MFs have two types of skins ;) I think it adds diversity ;)
  13. Well I have to say that I like those new flesh tone MFs !!!!! I was dubious at first, but I have come to like them ;) !!!!!
  14. Since there is no food nor drinks in the kitchen I suggest we all go downstairs and look for some, as well as clues !!!!
  15. I'm pretty optimistic about tha Awing Beagle ;) Viewing the latest SW sets, TLC is giving the good colors to its ships !!!!! So I think that tha Awing will be dark red !!!!!! (at least I'm really hoping !!!). They did Obi's JSF dark red !!!!!! However I don't agree with you on your general comment of the Awing !!!!! Being the fastest rebel fighter (I'm not considering the Falcon on purpose here), its A shape with those two huge engines !!! I think its a classic shape for the SW universe but I digress ;)
  16. * Radio Gaga ------------------------------------- * Rogue Commander to Lord Vader, My Lord, I have contacted my Bounty Hunters Ground Troup (the one who did an excellent job in taking control of the great restaurants !!!!). They are on red alert and ready for action !!!! Rogue Commander standing by and out * Radio Gaga ------------------------------------- *
  17. Well Mister Athos, that is a very interesting comment concerning myself !!!! First of all, I don't think we should pick up every possible weapon we can find. The pistol is a more sophisticate weapon that allows the shooter to kill his victim from a distance without the possibility for the victim to defend himself. Furthermore, I find your way to distract the attention from yourself quite disturbing. How convenient to try and shift the burden of attention on myself rather than answer the question that we all have pursuant to our first discovery. Mind you that I am not accusing you in anyway, I was just asking for clarifications !!!! At this stage, I think it is not wise at all to become suspicious, we are a group and as such we should stick together !!! Mister Brickster, is the knife stained with blood ??? If not, is there anything the murderer could have used to clean the knife ???? How intriguing to have the knife lying on the floor in a mansion that is so clean and where everything has its place !!!! Furthermore, Mister Brickster, I fully agree with Miss Darkie, we should open the trap on the floor !!!!
  18. Sure I agree with you that competition is a valuable asset for companies to make themselves better and more attractive ;) After its all a question of market and consummers' views of this market. If TLC was in a perfect monopolistic position, would that mean that they would sell bad product ??? I doubt it, especially in todays world where kids prefer new technology very young instead of playing with our dear bricks. If you have a too wide market, then a lot of familly with less income (i'm not being pejorative here, i'm being realistic) would not buy Lego but the Cheap rip off product !!!!!!! The building toy market is rather large, so competitors can come up with a lot of different design without being cheap copycats. Also, European law is rather restrictive on pure monopolistic markets !!!!!
  19. And here its just to show how the tile fits !!! Anywat, you see the point ;) I'm sure this will work perfectly on the Bwing !!!!! Hope this helped.
  20. Here it is Ras (sorry, bad pics !!! bad light !!!!) Here is with the "hiding" tile
  21. True, but nowadays most of the big civil cases are tried by jury, so you never know what to expect, and the judge always have the possibility to lower the amount of damages awarded...
  22. A huge online PAB would make sense !!!! However TLC does not make the best decisions... We'll see, I have lowered my hopes TT, now I hope to be surprised in the near future ;)
  23. Well one thing thats for sure is that TLC is not doing an excellent job in marketing and informing !!!!!! The always publish press releases on their products once they are already on sale !!!!!! So I guess we'll have to wait till August first !!!! If its a prank, well...
  24. I get your point Mister Bildur. However, let me remind you we have been waiting quite some time before entering the mansion, we are cold, hungry and we are locked in here for who knows how long. Therefore, we need to find some food. Is it stealing ?? No. Is it necessity I wonder ?? Surely yes !!!
  25. Fantastic news guys *sing* !!!!!!!! "Breda Metropolitan Court in the Netherlands has ruled that the Canadian toy manufacturer, Mega Bloks, is not permitted to market and sell bricks in the Netherlands which can be mistaken for LEGO bricks". Yeahhhhhh, in your face ( :oD :P ) !!!!!! The Netherlands rule !!!! Now lets hope this will create momentum in other countries !!!!!! There is hope: "Since the world famous LEGO brick was created, the LEGO Group has brought
