Fantastic interview, it's always great to learn more about our resident castle master *sweet* So what attracted you to castle in the first place, rather than any other theme? Was it the first sets you were given? Some experience from childhood? Or rather some inexplicable draw? Something else entirely? 8-| Where do you get your ideas from? Are they extensively planned out on grid paper in advance, or do you just create as you go? What's your primary inspiration? Also, jojo's a member here? I had no idea :-D

Sinner just had chinese food the night before and was a little bloated...he was already concerned with his weight from all those clam sundaes...he'll be crushed to read that :'-(

Just a minute, just a minute... Then how'd your FACE get in there? Huh?! I was gonna be nice about this but now I don't think I'm returning the towels I accidentally borrowed from the pool |-/

It's a public pool >:-(

What? *wacko* I wish Hinckleytown could be like that, where a walrus could be free from the constant fear of being whacked...or given a wedgie, or having his bucket stolen. The horrible, horrible nightmares they must have :'-( Edit: Just LOOK at the persecution! This was taken in their local public pool...

Ah, since you quoted Simon I thought you were talking about his correction

It was just a joke...check the person he 'corrected' X-D

It's not a matter of maturity, it's a matter of respect. I'm sure he can handle swearing just fine, and hell (see what I did there?) swearing even has a time and place where it's fine. However this isn't one of them. There's a reason we have a swear filter (which I'm adding I'm a moron to now), and that's not because we can't handle curses or swearing, it's because not only could there be younger people here, but it's disrespectful to others. Honestly, telling someone to "I'm a moron" because of differing opinions? That's hardly mature, it shows, if anything, a lack of maturity and a lack of the ability to talk things out and discuss opinions like adults. Because that's what we're all supposed to be around here. This isn't an IM service, and this isn't a chat room, it's a message forum. That means you should have all the time in the world to formulate any response you want. If you want to be mature, if you want to be an adult, then I'm sure you can find better ways of expressing yourself than resorting to childish insults. And that goes for everyone. As corny as it might sound we like to actually respect each other around here, and we like to have a real community. So please remember to respect everyone here, even if your opinion isn't quite the same ;-)

Not really sure why this isn't in the Star Wars subforum, so I'll move it. As for the first post, "Well????!?" isn't really a great question. You mean how would a KotOR set fare? Probably so-so. Most of the target audience wouldn't be familiar with them, a fate I fear for the Force Unleashed sets being released currently. I suppose it's possible to release some if the next KotOR comes out before the end of the license though

This is fantastic, I love the new helmets for the goblins *sweet* I've always loved the chicken leg thing, really screams LEGO to me! At least how LEGO used to be :'-( Great little bit The goblins are awesome too, and the sand green one should look good next to the tan ones...gives a nice feeling of a real species. In reality not all members of a species are identical, it's great seeing them in different colors. Great review X-D

There, I edited one in from Bricklink Happy? :-| :-P

Forget radioactive waste, it looks more like human waste :-X

It shows up fine for me 8-|

Fantastic, it's really hard to tell from the picture. If this doesn't convince castlers who are stuck with the bley problem nothing will X-D

Fantastic work as always, this really makes me want to build something civilian like this... Is this all old gray?

They actually used that technique a while ago on one of the best sets they ever made...the Titan XP *wub* So it's not really a new technique

Hm, since this entire forum is pretty much what this thread is for, I'll close this

Very impressive! Welcome to EB *sweet* I have my own Black Falcon army...but it's a little more 'in progress' than yours :-P Okay at the moment it's more like a Black Falcon club or something...anyway very nice, that must have cost a fortune :'-(

Hinckley refers to it as frown. The rest of the civilized world calls it rewn :-P

Fascinating! I love seeing how MOCs evolve...especially ones that end up like this *wub*

Shh! Don't say that or Sinner will be all over you :-|

That happened to me several months ago. It sold out on S@H and they're not getting any more in. I've sent letters only to get a form response saying they're not coming back. I then paid a trip in mid-december to my "local" lego store where I saw 7 of those babies and snatched them all up. When I spoke with a cashier (an AFOL) he informed me that they never expected demand to be that high, so didn't make as many. Also mentioned that they weren't planning on making any more. I'm afraid you're out of luck if they didn't have any in the back room :-/

Hey this is a great little tank here, Brickmaster *y* My only criticisms would be that it's a little boxy, and could do with some more details. I understand you want to go with the armored look, but even real armored tanks are covered with details. A great place to put them would be in the area by the gears, it seems a bit plain. The sides above the wheels too would be nice, and definitely the front. The lights are a great touch but a few more details definitely couldn't hurt, right? What about a ladder to climb down off of or up into? How do they get in/out of the cockpit? Little things like that ;-)

It's supposed to be some sort of thruster I think, no function with it

Aww, unloved? *wub* Better? :-P And yeah, I'm kind've curious about BZP too...as far as the early pics I figured since you and BZP seemed to have a close association, and you have that disclaimer on your site maybe you never really saw them.
