  1. I like it. The head shape really gives it a proper demonic look, what with those humongous eyebrows. The legs and feet don't really work well with the look of the rest of the MOC, however. The feet look like they should be larger, while the legs could be a little sleeker-looking (the shell closest to the feet is especially jarring).
  2. Beautiful. The colors work really well, much better than they by all rights should, and the armor and weapons seem spread over the figure in such a way that it has a kind of aesthetic balance.
  3. A share to win does seem the most likely. And I can understand why they wouldn't do another contest. Amongst other things, it'd seem less special this close to the last one. I do hope that they do one last contest at the end of the line, perhaps for an "Ultimate Edition Mask of Ultimate Power".
  4. Nice, but the position of the wing-hands looks a little awkward, as does the way the body tapers into the tail. I'd suggest moving the hands to the ends of the wings and making the body slightly longer so that it decreases in width less abruptly.
  5. Ugh, yeah. If it was another contest, I'd be a little more interested, but a giveaway seems kind of pointless.
  6. Why would Ronin even have a final goal? He's a bounty hunter, why exactly would he want something besides money?
  7. I would love dinosaurs, but I would adore pterosaurs even more. Maybe the first wave of 2016 could be the new Toa, with the smaller sets being small velociraptor sets, maybe a small pterosaur, with the second half featuring stuff like a T-rex, a generic stegosaur, other large dinosaurs or maybe even an Azdarchid.
  8. I kind of want to see either fully mechanical or fully organic villains, with those aspects emphasized. Rahkshi-like creatures would work well, but I would like to see some characters for whom non-humanoid is the default. Snake-like creatures would be great; the only thing like that LEGO has made recently were Ninjago's Serpentine, and those ar humanoid versions. Insects or dragons would also be interesting choices.
  9. Actually, some of those plot holes aren't all that difficult to fill: There's no real excuse for the rest of them, except that Dareth is a: lazy and b: stupid.
  10. In my experience, Intertoys always has retailer exclusives, and in fact, in the Netherlands most stores do. It would make up for the late arrival of sets, were it not for the fact that the prices are always through the roof.
  11. Could you take a picture of the Jalopy? I kind of want to see how they managed to translate that model into brick form.
  12. I've seen both the polybags in an independant store here in the Netherlands. It used to be a Toys R Us, though.
  13. Yeah, that's what I meant. What's weird is that I remember typing PoE. Also, my guess would be PoJ. PoW has a different backpack setup, PoI has lower arms, PoE has a completely different back build and weapon (quite nice, but I would remove the spike on top and make the lower part of the handle shorter) and PoS is missing his second armor add-on. PoF is completely different, as it's now mostly a solid splotch of red with some gold thrown in.
  14. Yeah, I got PoS just for the pepper grinder thing alone. Instead of getting PoS I'm planning to just order a bucketload of parts (40 tr. purple bones and 10 tr. purple mace halves, amongst other things).
  15. The JP ideas set would also be licensed and give sales to the JP/JW group.
  16. Personally, while I think Gali's tone of voice is spot on, the voice itself really, really doesn't work. Onua also kind of bothers me, but Lewa with a slasher grin and an ominous voice is so hilarious that I think it deserves to stay.
  17. That should be in Culture and Multimedia, but man do I want the evil version of Ronin as a set. Too bad that it'll probably end up as an exclusive for the preorder version of the game, which I won't be able to use even if I buy it (I don't have any consoles).
  18. Yeah, I heard that too. And there is no discernible difference between any of the apparently GitD pieces, so it seems unlikely that only some of them are really GitD.
  19. Okay, that is officially the creepiest thing I've seen made from constraction pieces, beating out the Jack-in-the-Box. Seriously, this thing is horrifying.
  20. They aren't spring green. I compared the color with my spring green skull spider when I got it, and the color used by Morro's army is definitely different. It seems brighter and more like lime green in comparison.
  21. Huh. To my mind, increased contrast is a good thing.
  22. Huh. I don't like the proportions (the extremely wide knees) or colors much (the silver dilutes the bright purple a little too much, and should probably be spread out a little more), but that gearbox is genius. Can I please have permission to steal that design?
  23. I personally just want the boring and ill-fitting grey bone pieces gone. Preferably, they would be replaced by black pieces, except in sets where they make sense aesthetically.
  24. I originally wanted to get 9 PoE-s so as to combine them into a giant glyptodont monster. Instead, I'm just ordering their rare parts via Bricks and Pieces. Much cheaper.
  25. I got a total of four Dragon Bolts for my project. I never found the time to finish it, though .
