Which Lego Ninjago set attracts you the most?
purpleparadox replied to Omega X's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
Epic Dragon Battle looks alright, but I'm still on the fence about it. Tight budget with Monster Fighters coming out! I'll probably be buying Lasha's Bite Cycle, and Jay NRG is a must-have! -
WW Category 2: 1908 Wild West Town
purpleparadox replied to marshal_banana's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
We're getting closer... About 750 votes was all that was needed last time I checked! I think TLG will likely produce this project. My personal favourite building is the Saloon. Keep on voting! -
Does fandom influence your Licensed preferences?
purpleparadox replied to Clone OPatra's topic in General LEGO Discussion
Fandom could affect my purchases, but I purposely don't let it. For example, I love SW, HP, LOTR, and Batman, but I've started only occasionally buying licensed sets. My reason for that is because I'd end up needing ALL the sets and characters from each theme, and I'd spend too much money. With non-licenses, the story/characters aren't quite as written in stone (especially City) so I don't feel a need to buy everything. -
I'm not sure where in the guidelines it says this, but they've raised the number of posts needed to make a topic in the Buy, Sell, Trade, and Find forum to 100.

Lego CUUSOO Firefly Serenity Playset Reaches 10k!
purpleparadox replied to CM4Sci's topic in LEGO Sci-Fi
That's how I phrased it, but I meant to say, "I won't be purchasing that, all I'll be buying is" -
I'll give a word of thanks too. Thank you guys all so much. You've already pushed me to become a better builder, be it through raising the bar with your fantastic MOCs, or with your constructive advice, or the opinions you share in all discussions. It's helped me a lot. And EB is a huge source of fun for me, I'm enjoying every second here. Thanks to the people who keep it going, and to all the members who keep it alive. You guys are the best!

Thanks LT. I've already got three more designs in my head, now I need to make them reality in brick, and work on photography!

Lego CUUSOO Firefly Serenity Playset Reaches 10k!
purpleparadox replied to CM4Sci's topic in LEGO Sci-Fi
Sorry if you misinterpreted that. What I meant was, another license but still no original content is kinda disappointing. I'm happy for the Zelda, Firefly, and BTTF fans, and I hope new themes bring new parts. Who knows? Maybe I'll grow to like one of them. It'd just be great to see a completely original idea (Western Town, Firefighter Train) reach 10k too. -
Thanks! I knew the lighting was bad, but I didn't know what to do about it. I'll use that technique for photographing my next creation. Thank you for the tip!

B-V-19D So, I'm working on a series of simple vignettes showing me going about my everyday life. To kick it off, here's me, building with Lego! I always have trouble building, I can never find the piece I'm looking for. I never know what to build, too. That's why I have a worried face here, because I'm stressed about what to build. "Now where did I put that piece...?" Hope you enjoyed it, and get ready for another vig soon!
-
I love happy endings, and this is ABSOLUTELY a happy ending! Congrats to you and your future wife! Also, very nice MOC. I really like it.
-
This is a great idea. I'm disappointed that licensed ideas like Firefly and Zelda are getting way more votes. I like to spread the word about projects like this, because I'd be thrilled to see a non-licensed, genuinely interesting idea be produced thanks to CUUSOO.

Monster Fighters 2012
purpleparadox replied to Darth Nihilus's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
Thanks, you just completely made all the Monster Fighters sets (except maybe Vampyre Castle) must-buys for me. There goes trying not to spend too much money! -
Lego CUUSOO Firefly Serenity Playset Reaches 10k!
purpleparadox replied to CM4Sci's topic in LEGO Sci-Fi
Looks like another license... I don't want that! All I want is for the Modular Western Town and/or Space Marines to reach 10k by the next review. Out of the recent projects to hit 10 thousand the only one that I think has a chance is the BTTF Delorean. -
I completely agree, that happens to me on my iPod too. Yes. I went from IE to Chrome, and it's way better. Once you go Chrome, you never go back.

8 Series 7 CMF from a local Walmart. 1x Bagpiper (YES!!! My favourite!) 1x Computer Programmer (YES!! My second favourite!) 1x Rocker Girl (YES! My third favourite) 1x Tennis Ace 1x Bride 1x Galaxy Patrol And I accidentally got 2x Ocean King. So thrilled to get Series 7, finally!

LEGO Collectable Minifgures Series 7 Discussion
purpleparadox replied to whung's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Could someone please help? I have no experience with pieces like the Bagpiper's kilt, and I don't want to wreck it. Is there step-by-step instructions (preferably with pics) on how to put it on? Thanks. EDIT: Nevermind, I received the help I needed. Thanks to the-bricking-builder! -
At... Toys'R'Us?

Monster Fighters 2012
purpleparadox replied to Darth Nihilus's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
Sweet! I saw your similar posts on the LOTR and Ninjago 2012 topics and I was hoping this would be next! EDIT: Even though there's still nothing for Canada. -
Nice trucks. I like how you put giant models of food on top of them! I do like the ice cream cone, but my favourite part has to be the giant hot dog.

Monster Fighters 2012
purpleparadox replied to Darth Nihilus's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
Thanks, I'd never taken a good long look at that building until now. It really is interesting. I'm not sure whether it'll be part of the Monster Hunters line or the modular building line. It looks like a more difficult build than most of the Monster Hunters sets, but it also doesn't fit with the other modulars. Maybe it'll be in the Monster Hunters line as a 14+ (16+?) set. -
I'll be buying Mia's music room as a parts pack. The sheet music (brasso removing the pink and teal printing on it), the drum kit design (swapping out the pink parts for black), and the book. Now the question is, what do I do with the minidoll?
-
Fleshies as elves...that's an interesting idea. Would you mind posting some pics of your elves beside some castle figs for comparison? I'd like to see how well they go together. Also if you have any MOCs incorporating the two races (humans and elves) that'd be great to see.

The rules said you may use custom decals if you design them yourself.

Lego CUUSOO Legend of Zelda Achieved at 6:05 AM today!
purpleparadox replied to CM4Sci's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Meh...it looks okay. I'm not familiar with Zelda so I'm not getting too worked up over the idea.The only thing that'd excite me about LEGO Legend of Zelda would be some of the new sword designs and an ocarina.
