  1. Uh... it isn't? Cool, why have I always been worried then... bid away! X-D As for the station: I've noticed, too, that this one's reeeeeeally hard to find MISB. Also the red version. They do pop up on ebay.de now and then, but not MIB, let alone MISB. On the other hand, I don't know what's so special about it. It's not my favorite station. It's a nice set with a nice building, no doubt, but I've never liked train stations that are just "a house". While they are pretty nice photography "models" in real life they just lack what makes them a train station: you know, platform roof and the like. 7824 is one I like. I know, it's very "plain", but looks more like a train station to me than 2150 or 4554 (and just look at the number of MF!). Might be the fact that I just like big, modern train stations, like the new "Berlin Hauptbahnhof" (Pic1, Pic2, Pic3, Pic4, Pic5) that just recently opened. The new LEGO City Airport goes in that direction, even more than 4513 which was a good start. I'd like to see a trainstation like the airport for next year. I won't buy the RC train sets but a good looking trainstation I'd buy. Now back to counting my endless money supply... Wait, the red version is rare too? :'-) I'll have to take a picture of my MISB collection <_< It's really random though, I don't tend to buy doubles, mainly if I'm given a second, or buy a spare by accident
  2. That's a rare set? I have two MNIB somewhere in my room back home...I think
  3. Actually guys, the Red helm was a bullet helm, not the one in the Airbender line. I later found out that they were from displays at Legolands and the like, never produced in sets. I snagged a red bullet helm, a purple bullet helm, and a green wide helm (none ever produced in sets, not painted, and 100% legit). When I get back home in a week I can take pictures to show you all. Never thought I'd see this topic dregged back up from the depths of hell again :-|
  4. <insert creative pirate-related comment here> 8-| Happy Birthday!
  5. This is a fun little game which I just beat. You have to connect the same-colored squares without having lines overlap on three faces of a six-sided cube. It starts to get a little challenging after level 19, so I screencapped my solutions for each puzzle, 19-30. If anyone needs help I'll be glad to post them. Enjoy ;-)
  6. heh, I love the name and style Welcome to Eurobricks :-D
  7. I'd say there were enough Americans here on EB to help our european friends out with that ;-)
  8. You want venom? Take the spare black skull from Graveyard Duel, make a decal of the SP torso in clear, slap it on a black torso, and instant fig! Since Lego doesn't have the license... :'-(
  9. One can only hope X-D But on a serious note, I haven't heard anything about a year two of the series, so they probably are. I don't think they sold that well anyway.
  10. Perfect! When I saw it on the main page, it said: A is for... Athos :-D Absolutely perfect vig, I just wonder if the fig is Al or Ed ;-)
  11. a knife, naturally. A knife can be used for a million things with survival, from helping to build shelter, to killing wild animals for food, to defense, to cutting food, etc. Maybe he's flying across the jungle, the plane crashes, and he's left trying to make his way to a ruin with just a knife? *shrugs*
  12. Ahh, Athos, your style is catching on! :-P Nice idea for the bow
  13. I love this. I've always had a strange soft spot in my heart for blacksmiths. And this is a great example. I mean the wall seems a little bland, but otherwise the details are great. I love the light bley and dark bley bars mixed together to give the feel of different metals.
  14. That's what you get for betraying me in the war for the old gray bricks! :-P
  15. nononono! are you insane?! you don't open the box! you just gently take it in your hands, threaten everybody who comes near it, stare at it for a while, listen to the parts falling from side of the box to the other and put it back into the vault... untill tomorrow... then you open the vault again... you just gently take it in your hands... oh well... you get the story by now, don't ya? :-$ I think I found my long-lost brother! :-D
  16. Oh thank god *breathes out* I was worried they had lisenced it
  17. I've been looking for a proper way to store my pieces, and on brickshelf I happened across this guy's system of shelves. Does anyone know where I can find storage like what's displayed in here? Preferrably something in the US. Thanks, I really appreciate it. It's exactly what I've been looking for.
  18. Enjoy :-)
  19. I can't say for sure, but it looks too "homebrewed" to be a real promo set. I'd wager this is a fake (the parts may be genuine LEGO, but that's all)
  20. I like how when the Ninja grabs the gem, you can see some people goofing around in the background :-P
  21. Don't you think you're taking it a BIT too seriously? I mean a few rims hardly make or break LEGO, who not only has an excellent reputation for quality, but also for customer service. Look what they did for Striking Venom, sending out the correct parts to fix their mistake. Why does it matter what the reason is? I mean we're talking about four tiny pieces of plastic which affect play in no way (which is really the point of LEGO). They've already shown that they can send out replacements with the SV, which you admit is more of a deal than an explanation. Does it really matter why the rims were changed? I think people are just making too big of a deal out of a very minor thing.
  22. At least the compliments haven't gone to your head :-P
  23. Who doesn't, honestly? :-P
  24. Vote: Enchanted Island Reason: Nostalgia
  25. Quite an impressive MOC! The scale and details are phenomenal, though I guess I should've expected something like this from a CC refugee ;-) Castle has always been one of my favorite genres, and you've truly captured the magnitude of it all. The one thing that gets me is the selective use and alternation between smooth tiles and studs. But it's a great scene, and I love Majesto taking a nap, the pose is perfect :-D
