But they already integrated black figs into non-license system, so doesn't that kind of have the same effect? I'm almost positive there was a black fig driving either a medical truck, or a prison transport truck...looking Edit: The picture is DOWN. Did anyone save it? Edit 2: They just moved it. I updated the link to it earlier in this thread, and on the mainpage so we don't just get an error of "IPB image"

Done ;-)

Well you answered it yourself! They tend to use Tibaana Gas, which is why they can run out of "charges" and need to "reload". All it is, is super-excited, super-heated gas sent out at tremendous velocities

Those are some beautiful molds! I don't know which I'm more surprised about, the new whip (which wasn't really needed but is nice nonetheless), or that hat (which is a thing of beauty *wub*). I hope they really give this license their all, and since this is an LFL license, they might!

Wasn't the Ep 3 thing an AT-RT?

This is awesome news :'-) Thanks for the news, both of you! I think the general space community will love the Rogue Shadow, they tend to have a real hard-on for anything a-symmetrical As for me? Mine goes to the AT-PT, for some reason it has always been one of my favorite vehicles. That stormtrooper dropship looks like crap though, and way too big for any "army builder"

You might want to check my Viking Chess Review that I did awhile ago ;-)

Holy hell that's awesome. Great find, athos! I can't see too well, are those the flared helms for the pawns? Also, who are the bishops? I can see a viking torso but... And BLACK skellies for the pawns on the other side? I would've thought the'd be rarer... Damn, I don't have any cash to spare...maybe i'll just wait and hope they go on sale like the vikings :-/

You can find the article here, and I found (stole) the article here

That's insane! I'd expect one of the gold C3PO in there at that price... I'm sure this guy spent a lot collecting the figs, but he has to be reasonable *wacko* Although like almost anyone here I'd love to have a collection like that *wub* It's definitely worth a few thousand, I'll give him that

Hm, while I would have preferred the renewal of adventurers, this is still great news! Think of all the wonderful new pieces...that golden idol *wub* This will be a great series! Sadly not for MF though...I really wish TLG would take back their policy on that |-/

I can't begin to say how much I love this thing. While I love the way you built it, with the two interconnected towers, my favorite part is easily the landscaping. I love that stream, and the rocky banks! My one criticism would have to be the top of the tower with the telescope, it's too open for my taste, I know there has to be a better way to do that, and I know you can figure it out (I'll be thinking about it too), and when you compare it to the rest of the MOC, it's a very, very small criticism ;-) Great work, DarkSpawn!

For those who missed it, or didn't get the show in their area, they can watch it here

Keep time zones in mind though, you're probably GMT+7, right? I'm in EST and it starts around 10. I'm sure it'll be great :-)

Well I saw your other reviews up, and I kinda assumed. It's not like you did either just now :-P It's in there now though :-)

Sorry for the double post, but this is just a little reminder for everyone that gets Robot Chicken that it airs tonight!

So then what was the point of this topic, morris? You started it because you said "everyone who wants one will get one", and then you said "everyone who is a true fan will get one", and now you say "anyone who is a true fan MUST have one", so really what are you saying? How does that help the people who want one but can't afford one? No, there's a chance I might get one, and even if I do I'll be disgusted by this tactic TLG has resorted to. From day one I've said this is nothing more than a charlie-and-the-chocolate-factory routine to sell more sets, and it will just leave countless people disappointed. That set has nothing unique, it just has some figs that are available in many other sets. Is it a stupid stunt? Yeah, but it's not like anyone is missing out on anything with it. Of course not, and you know why? Because it's not feasible for them to sell the sets there. It's not as if they can have some, but not all. And if they really want they can buy sets for a reasonable price, or get a friend from another country to send it to them. We don't have the same luxury here. This is a stupid stunt to sell more sets. Not selling in certain parts of the world isn't. This thread has done nothing but turn into everyone trying to tell you that you're not being realistic, and you trying to redefine words, and change your story again and again. You said everyone will get one. They won't. Not everyone is rich, and before you go mouthing off to *vader* asking for sources, why don't YOU show some sources about them making more than 10,000, or that the price will go down, or any of the other claims you made? This thread is going nowhere, and is CLOSED.

If you really want someone to give it a try, you can always try asking over at MCN by requesting it in the (I think) WIP section

I think what he apologized for was putting that picture in the thread...the one he edited to a link of a child with a...nose problem :-X

*vader* gave perfect examples of this. And how many people on this forum can't afford to get every set? That doesn't mean they're not a fan, it just means they're not rich! Tell me morris, are you going to get every single SW set this year, including the MF, and buying the 3PO for $300+? If you can, good for you, but most people here can't afford that, I know I can't. I have to hope for slim odds of finding it in a set (which I won't be buying in bulk), and that's still more than all the members who don't live in the US who HAVE to shell out $300US for it, or the even slimmer chances of winning that contest! Since when does money have anything to do with how much you're a fan of something? You could be a fan and not own a single set Well good for you, but I know more than a few people who were disgusted by this and think they should've either made him available to everyone as a part of a set, or not at all. And if they don't like a single FIGURE they're not a fan? How in the world do you figure that? Now that's just being picky. Clearly nobody is going to go and just touch it with the tip of their finger, we were talking about positioning it in vigs, putting it in scenes, etc. And that COULD scratch the paint off, making that $300 investment WORTHLESS. I like how you changed from "everyone will get one" to "everyone who wants one will get one" to "everyone who is a SW lego fan will get one" to "everyone who is rich and wants every single figure wants one". That last one is a given, if you're rich, you'll get this. If you're not, you probably won't. And that's where the problem is. The whole point of this topic was "everyone will get one", and now you're saying you need a lot of money to get one. Well that isn't quite everyone, now is it? :-|

Er...what do you mean by a true lego sw fan won't be BROKE? They could be a true lego SW fan and have no money. What are you going on about? And just because they're a true lego SW fan, that means they HAVE to like this fig? Absolutely not! Maybe they like the sets, maybe they are disgusted by this promotion as it's just a blatant attempt to sell more sets. Maybe they just don't like it for a million reasons. They're basically the same thing. It's chrome gold PAINT. Afterall, what do you think "gold plated" means? You think they put a solid plate of gold over it? No, they basically dip it in liquid gold, which is sorta like painting. And if I spent $300 on a single fig, I'd be scared to touch it. What if it gets scratched, and some of the chrome gold paint comes off?

Hm, I don't know takuto, I still see some SNOT in that MOC above the window :-P Really nice find though
