  1. Also, I will say that it is pretty much confirmed for 2014, there are 3 series per year, and 2013 has 9, 10, and 11.
  2. Another thing I forgot, what was the point in the siblings????
  3. Oh, wow, Shadows, what a coincidence!!! OK, so I have some explaining to do about the whole situation involving my lynch. My first post about the cookies didn't even cross my mind about it being a claim, and I was referencing that picture where I fed the animals those apples. def then messaged me about the lie detector and told me how to use it, but since I couldn't be as active as I wanted, and couldn't read his instructions in time, I asked him to help, thinking he was giving me his lunch. I only continued because of that. When he messaged me back, saying he thought I had a detector, I was frustrated, because if I had a detector, wouldn't it be explained in my role PM? He did acknowledge that it was a misunderstanding in thread, but it was too late, and I was well on my way to being lynched, so after convincing some people I was ton (Danny and Hinck), I was thankful enough that Fred and Danny tried to help steer the lynch away from me, but I know everyone else wouldn't believe them, especially because the whole situation was bugging Hinck and everyone else, so I just basically said "megabluck this", did a few rants, and accepted my defeat. Well, that's it. If there is anything else that needs to be clarified, just say so.
  4. Wow, DathPotato, even if you didn't win, twice in a row!!! You do a really good job playing as scum, it's really hard to suspect you! Congratulations to the winners!!!
  5. DISCLAIMER: I searched for a similar topic, without finding one. If a mod feels like there is a better topic, or no need for this topic, feel free to lock it. I was looking at all of my CMF's, and I really couldn't decide which one was the best (in my opinion). So, I came up with a little game. I took each series, ranked the figures in order of my favor-ability (favorite to least favorite), then counted how many I wanted, an example of Series 7 is shown below. The last two underneath the dotted line are the ones I show no interest in. 1. Ocean King 2. Bride 3. Galaxy Patrol 4. Bagpiper 5. Swimming Champion 6. Rocker Girl 7. Evil Knight 8. Viking Woman 9. Grandma Visitor 10. Aztec Warrior 11. Hippie 12. Computer Programmer 13. Daredevil 14. Tennis Ace ------------- 15. Bunny Suit Guy 16. Jungle Boy Therefore, it is noted that I was interested by 14/16 (or 87.5%) of the series. Upon analyzing my interest in the other series, I discovered that even though I feel some CMF Series have stronger figures than others, they aren't as strong as an entire series.I also found that I found interest in no less than 12 figures per series. Below is my brief description of what I had concluded. Strong Series (14/16 or 87.5% of interesting figures) Series 7 (See Above) Series 4 (Figures not of interest: Ice Skater, The Monster) Series 9 (Figures not of interest: Roman Emperor, Chicken Suit Guy) Good Series (13/16 or 81.25% of interesting figures) Series 1 (Figures not of interest include Ninja, Demolition Dummy, and Deep Sea Diver) Series 8 (Figures not of interest include Football Player, Vampire Bat, and Pirate Captain) Series 6 (Figures not of interest include Flamenco Dancer, Classic Alie, and Highland Battler) Decent Series (12/16 or 75% of interesting figures) Series 5 (Figures not of interest include Fitness Instructor, Ice Fisherman, Detective, and Royal Guard) Series 2 (Figures not of interest include Weightlifter, Traffic Cop, Jungle Explorer, and Ringmaster) Series 3 (Figures not of interest include Space Alien, Pilot, Tribal Chief, and Sumo Wrestler) So, what are your thoughts of my method? Do you have any methods of your own on ranking the CMF Series? Post 'em here, and try mine! And vote in WhiteFang's polls if you haven't done so already!!
  6. Well, I don't currently own it, but I love, love, LOVE the Grand Emporium. I am going to be picking it up this summer if it manages to stick around until then, because I am currently broke.
  7. Sign me up too, please!!! I need redemption from the utter mess I caused in Heartlake Heartbreak. EDIT: I ran out of lie-detecting cookie batter yesterday if it is any consolation. No crazy claims for me! I'm ready for the madness! MWAHAHAHAHAH- *cough* *choke* *any other noise that makes the crazy-laugh-coughy-thing a cliche* HAHAHAHA!!!!!!
  8. Yesterday I watched two movies Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close- I enjoyed this movie, not a whole lot, it seemed kind of jumbled and confusing sometimes, but it wasn't horrible. I found it pretty sad, but the ending completely frustrated me. The Dark Knight Rises- I hadn't seen it in theaters, but I wanted to. I thoroughly enjoyed it, but there were some parts I felt were slightly stretched out a bit, longer than they should have been. I was also bugged by Bane's voice. It just didn't seem right to me. I imagined Bane to have a deeper voice, and I occasionally heard Bane's voice in a few different accents throughout the movie, but otherwise, I really liked it.
  9. Thanks for the review, PhillipJFry, and welcome to Eurobricks! I personally will probably not buy this set, but it does look pretty good, it might not be completely accurate, but I appreciate TLG's attempt at it. I do think it would have been a great reason to add a new Catwoman and Talia, however. Enjoy Eurobricks, and once again, thanks for the review!
  10. Yes,Bob, this mafia game looks incredibly exciting!! I can't wait to see more details later!
  11. To be honest, I don't see all the hype over this Chicken Suit guy minifigure, he is probably my least favorite of the entire series. But, I do think that this is my favorite series of them all, a great improvement from series 8. I liked Series 1, but thought Series 2 and 3 were more of a step down. then, series 4 came out, and it was probably my new favorite. After series 5, I thought the overall series wasn't as strong, but there were figures from that series that are some of my overall favorites. Series 6 was strong, as was 7, but I thought Series 8 was a bit weaker. Overall, I think Series 9 is the strongest series as a group, but I think that there are some figures that could have been executed better. Thanks for the review, WhiteFang!
  12. I watched Tower Heist recently too, maybe even that same day. I enjoyed it, there was definitely a lot of humor and comedy in it.
  13. I bought that Empire State Building set, I haven't built it yet, I plan on building it tomorrow though, along with my Space Needle. (I can't wait to build that one, I live an hour from Seattle )
  14. Has anyone seen any in Washington State, U.S.? The LEGO Store in Lynnwood was sold out, and I have no clue about TRU, but they always have markups, so I will probably just wait, or even resort to *gasp* ordering from S@H! If I do that, I'll just cross my fingers for no repeats, and that I get at least one of my favorites
  15. Well, I play the trumpet, and I'm pretty good at it. The "67" Really came from nowhere, actually.
  16. Well, I went to the nearest LEGO Store, recently to check if they had Series 9 due to all of the sightings. They did, but they were all sold out!!! I will probably check Target tomorrow, and then check the LEGO Store eventually, I live about 45 minutes away, so I'm not willing to drive over just for some minifigures. I am saving up for Grand Emporium, so maybe if my family members would be willing to give me a loan, I can go buy Grand Emporium soon, then see if the LEGO Store has stocked up again, buy some with GE, then head out. Of course, I would pay them back. (Eventually )
  17. Well, I didn't get a whole lot of LEGO this Christmas but I am happy that I got some, plus there still could be more to come. I have gotten 1. A $25 LEGO gift card. 2. 850486 Rock Band Accesory Kit 3.CMF Series 1 Super Wrestler, Cowboy, Tribal Hunte, plus my Circus Clown and Robot got shipped yesterday. 4. 9463 The Werewolf 5. Andrea's Bunny House. I will post anything else I get later. Merry Christmas!

  21. Nevermind my last post. I made some eBay bids and ende up getting the Robot and the Circus Clown, for about $24.53 USD. Pretty good buy, cinsidering that is just over the usual price for those individually, and they were sealed. I am really excited for these to come!!!
  22. Ok, so I am stuck between some CMF's. I can get either the S1 Robot, or the S1 clown and a few other misc. minifigs. I like both, but I get more figs with the Clown. But, the Robot is a definite favorite. So, which set should I buy? Well, moreso which figs should I buy?
  23. Well, the placing of the mohawk hasn't been oficially decided yet, because it could go well with either.
  24. I would like to request a decal for the Collectible Minifigures Series 1 Nurse's clipboard, which should fit on a 2x2 tile. I will post a reference picture is requested, I couldn't find one, but I will look later. Thanks!
