I was a bit sceptic first, but now i gotta say, i really start to like this theme, the color scheme works very well for me, and the figs are just amazing! I think this will be one of the best things regarding lego in 2010.

The tank truck looks really nice, but i can't agree with the helicopter. That big one piece front is just terrible. It looks like playmobil to me I know there have been such big pieces already before, but that (new?) one looks really bad. Why not build the front with bricks, like on the coast guard helicopter?

That base better be a very bad joke. This would be the most horrible lego has ever produced, if that is real. There's absolutely nothing awesome with it, not even near "nice", it's just plain horrible :sick: It looks like random pieces thrown together by a 5 year old...

I don't know if this has been posted yet as i wasn't able to keep on track at all the last months, but i found a folder at brickshelf that has pictures of the new minifigs in very high resolution. Here's the link: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=400896

To be honest i wouldn't mind if castle would take a year off, cause there are so many great sets out now i don't have yet, and i need some time to get them all before new ones are coming

I didn't keep on track much lately cause i'm pretty busy, i just was at my local store these days first since like 4 months, and just saw they had all the new PM sets, including the command rig and the crystal crawler. Unfortunately i'm that poor, that i can't afford anything right now, so i was just able to look at them

Just curios, where exactly did you find these set names and numbers at amazon?

magma poer miners and monster power miners? New sub-themes? Would be pretty cool. But all in all i can't really imagine how these sets look just by the names. Guess we have to wait for pictures...

I think it's a tad bit early to ask for that, but i'm pretty sure it will be.

The instructions of both the cave crusher and the mining station are also up now at lego.com: http://cache.lego.com/bigdownloads/buildin...ons/4562040.pdf http://cache.lego.com/bigdownloads/buildin...ons/4562068.pdf http://cache.lego.com/bigdownloads/buildin...ons/4562069.pdf

I only see it in one picture, but that shows it has at least some interior, which is nice.

you compare it with THIS?! No offense, but honestly, the only similarities i can see there is that big light

What about saying something a bit more...imaginative than 3 words?

As far as i understood that it is supposed to be 90 $, and not 90 Euros.

I fully agree with Algernon here. I don't see why it shall look worse now with the new pictures, i like it even more than before! The functionality seems pretty good, and it doesn't look childish or weak at all imo. The only think i could complain about is, that there are not enough minifigs, and that there maybe should be a bit more equipment or some brick-built machines (like the grinding machine in the new city garage). Other than that it's a full win, and i will buy it for sure

That's stupid, why wouldn't they let one make a picture? It would only be promotion for them and nobody would get hurt, for god's sake I'd just take a picture with a little cam or a cell phone when nobody looks :P

I gotta say, the RR HQ looked much to symmetric and, don't know..simple to me, and also it had a baseplate, so i like this much better!

I gotta say i never was abig space fan, that's why i'm not around in this subforum much, but i fell in love with the big space ship. I've seen many of the older sets, and think this is the best ship in a very long time, and even i will get it, though i have no space sets at all so far

thanks! And here we go: http://cache.lego.com/bigdownloads/buildin...ons/4561124.pdf

Hey, for what did you thank BlueBard? I posted that picture!

It is very small, i gotta say. Look fgor a very small "©2009 The LEGO Group," printed somewhere on the back, it should be right beside that.

I think the 2 instruction books were just 1 or 2 digits from each other, just try and change it +/- 1 or 2 digits, enter that and you'll find it.

I know that of course, i mean the INSTRUCTIONS number, which is written on the back of every instruction and is 6 digits long.

*Asking again for the drawbridge instructions number...*

Thanks for the pictures of the upper floor and roof! The kitchen and ping-pong table are very nice, but it really is a shame that when they already include so much stuff, there are no bedrooms That would be a missing second floor, right? But anyway, i will buy this (sometime) when i have anough money!
