The more I look at the designs of those, the more I like them ;-) Great microscaling there and that Falcon is soo cute *wub* I still think the price is okish: 19.99$ for 3 keychains, not really cheap but not that expensive *yoda*

Oh great news >:-( Now I have new stuff to buy for that freaking collection :-P Lego is definitly be the end of me X-D *yoda*

But WE can certainly X-D :-P After all the events we did, we have proof >:-) Just pray it won't be landed on Youtube :-P *yoda*

Right on it Steve ;-) *yoda*

One question Athos: why don't you include the new Exo Female ? Its space though and you don't have loads of figs in that category ;-) *yoda*
-
Looool :-P I just add the link to this topic on the main page for us to discuss it ;-) OK, now I'll need to find a real winning vig (yeay that sounds easy :-P ) OK so what is my chance of winning ? 1/10000 or something like that |-/ Anyhow, contest On !! *yoda*

Why on Earth would TLC pay for a license of a show that only exists in the UK, that makes no sense at all *wacko* Who (apart my English and UK mates would buy it I wonder, probably only hard core Lego fans but apart of them...) *yoda*

G mate, what can I tell you: you did unleash upon us the ULTIMATE Sith MOC IMO 8-

Yeay another rant anti licences !! I shall protect licences hehe The best arguments are linked to SW: without SW TLC would be in serious financial difficulties + how many AFOLS came out of their dark ages tks to SW ? (I am personnally one of them ;-) ) That argument is solely to prove that licences are profitable as a general statment !! Amen to those 2 points !! Me too I love to have characters I loved on the screen as MFs !! 5and I won't even enter in SW geek mode :-P ). I am a true fan of Batman and Spongebob !! Yes SB is a great theme with cool sets and great MFs !! Another good thing about licences is the novelty parts they include: tks to Batman we have those great pearl gold parts and tks to SB we have those green cherries *wub* (used to make Gary's eyes !!) And Amen to that Video Games !! LSW are so fun to play its amazing and I really can't wait for that ultimate edition !! Lets not forget the upcomming Lego Batman ;-) Sure licences have peach figs (I love those now hehe), and sure they increase the prices of sets (and yada yada yada) I think they are greatly needed if they are not too numerous and if they are well chosen. For instance I think that an Indy license is really stupid !! Sure it will have great sets and MFs, but what annoys me is each time TLC fails to use the momentum to release unlicensed products !! They could have loaded on easy cash by releasing a new pirate line with each of the POTC instalments, and the same goes with Indy4: release a new adventurer line at that time !! G I don't count how many times wrote this |-/ Comic Books, video games and cartoons are great for licenses !! So I will finish by... :-D License On !! *yoda*

What's a Good Price for an AT-TE?
xwingyoda replied to aayla-secura's topic in Buy, Sell, Trade and Finds
Indeed and I shall move it asap !! And Sne, you will not take the grass this year >:-) *yoda* -
Since that game will be available with next gen consoles (X360, PS3 and Wii) we might be able to play with 4 characters at once 8-

G what gave it away :-D :-P Oh I am indeed a real pirate fan hehe !! One of the movie that mlade me fall into that piratie mood was Polanski's Pirates hehe (and the fact that I saw each year that beautifull ship docked in Cannes' harbour ;-) ) BUt that sentence is off course directly taken from POTC: AWE ;-) *yoda*

What a fun contest this one was with so many great entries so congrats to all of us :-D ;-) And a real and huge BRAVO to you Alex, that Spyder was really a fantastic MOC (French Pride ON again :-P ) and you so much deserved to win hehe !! So now its police vehicle ON ;-) *yoda*

Only Good ?? Oh boy how I loved this movie *wub* Quentin is such a fantastic fil maker that always refresh himself in a lot of ways hehe The dialogs were hilarious, some scenes were really crude, Kurt is a fantastic actor and the babes are hot BUT the cars are way hotter IMO :-D :-P OH boy that chase between the '69 Charger and the '71 Challenger is just *wub* (Dodge On !!) And I loved all the winks to Kill BIll :-P Have you guys noticed that on the Boss Mustang there is a "pussywagon" sticker on its rear :-D Also the ring tone of that cell is really KillBIllesque :-P And I'm not even mentionning that the license plate of Kurt's first car in the movie (forget which Chevy though) has the SAME license plate as McQueen's baby in Bullit ;-) DeathProof On !! *yoda*

You can check the really fun trailer here !! Enjoy my jedi wannabes :-P *yoda*

Its amazing how many of you guys went with the white princess 8-

Loool I lety the members do questions/answers :-P Seriously, its kind of weird because the 3 sets out in France and on most SAH (MTT, N1 & JSF) have the same release date as the Sith Infiltrator & Tie Crawler, but those 2 last ones are not out yet |-/ Regarding the 2 TRU exclusives (Hoth Base & Republican Cruiser) its a september release so we need more patience on those 2 ;-) Which is good because they will come out during the yearly way anticipated "buy 2 get the third set for 1

BTW Norrington, I see you have a new sig with the SW Imperial Logo :-P Nice of you to have included it hehe (it feels I'm not working for nothing looool) *yoda*

Loool, no my bad :-$ Will take pics tomorrow and I will post it on monday or tuesday hehe ;-) *yoda*

I definitly went wih the pirate hottie !! This fig is perfect for a whore house prostitute MF in WW or in any pub as a matter of fact :-D (G, for once I didn't go with the biggest boobies :-P ) *yoda*
-
Actually, I kind of doubt that ;-) Marketing strategies really can evolve through time !! Come on lets face it, how many times did we ask for guns instead of megaphones and for great MF packs ? We've been ranting on that for numerous years and only in 2007 TLC finally decided to listen to us (and the line started in 1999 !! 8 bloody years !!). Also lets not forgetthe cost for TLC !! It would be odd to bear such a production cost for only 10k units (in one part of the world !! But thats just me !! Lets not forget that Viking line story: vikings were not suppose to reach the US territory but TLC finally decided to have that line there !! Lets pray for a positive evolution of things ;-) With numerous years ahead of us, I think they will release both the gold and silver droids in regular sets !! *yoda*
-
Sure there are only 10.000... for now !! That doesn't exclude the possiblity for TLC to have it mass produced in a year's time, so what are all those arguments regarding numbers ? Its absurd really (I feel like reading Kafka right now lool) Bottom line this is just a marketing strategy (once again, for now !!), end of story !! *yoda*
-
I totally get your point Morris, but you know us, we love to rant over stupid decisions :-P And see your tone, I get it but who many members think you are beeing aggressive in there ;-) Cool off dude, let people be pissed :-D *yoda*

Consensus of the new themes: Castle and Mars Mission
xwingyoda replied to Berry Syedow's topic in General LEGO Discussion
See, that is something I really dislike in all these conversations: why the hell do we need a storyline ?? G society makes kids totally idiotic these days. During my childhood I made my own stories and sets and I was happy about it !! But now NO sir, society/TLC need to feed kids crappy story to sell their lines, whats wrong with the picture ?? Come ON, how many kids play with the adventurer line thinking its Indy ?? a whopping lot I'm sure !! Movies, books make the universe kids want to relate to, and bricks is a perfect link, so NO darn stupid storyline is needed... Oh well, I'll stop my rant now :-P Storyline OFF !! *yoda* -
Of course this was bound to happen :-| What did you guys expect ? I mean its in human nature to cheat, especially when SW MFs are at stake :-P Unfortunatly there is no perfect way !! The ONLY thing they should have done is include our golden amigo in an expensive set and end of story !! I wonder how much money will shops loose like that due to heavy destruction of boxes ? TLC won't loose anything since the sets are sold to shops and only retailers will loose money like that |-/ I bet their quite happy :-P *yoda*
