So bootleg it is. I think I deserve a medal. -
Operation gas station infiltration
Natman8000 replied to cole's topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
Sometimes the nerds are the ones who take care of all our problems, so I would give them credit too I'm also curious, but I know that it only came in gray in the sets. There is it in red, as a preproduction part, but I never knew or silver or chrome. Perhaps a bootleg set? EDIT: quick BL search comes out flat, so either painted or bootleg. -
And that is why I really hate bionicle box arts, they make the sets look incredible on the box, and crap on the bottom.
-
Okay, that color scheme turned out to be terrible, just as we expected. At least the ignika is gold, that is one mentioning point.

vbbn, how long will each auction last?

Good morning sunshine. There were no pics of the RBR, because it was never there!

Great moc! I must admit, I'm a real fan of your work. Great work with the select parts, and those faces for the agents are great! -
I heard this. I don't really know what to say, but his hits will always live on in our hearts.

[MOC] Sandman's Wonderful Maze of Amazement
Natman8000 replied to Commander Flash's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Cool! Although, some pics are really blurry. that Darth Nihilus is incredible! Where did you get the decals? And nice trandosian too. -
Alert! Lego city's bank has just been robbed! Now its up to Agent Fuse to save the day. But wait, there's a Tusken here! Do you think he will be here to save us? No, I think hes here to review some Legos. Thank God! Name: 8968 River Heist Pieces: 203 Theme: Agents 2.0 Minifigs: 3 Price: $19.99 at the Lego store Availability: Later 2009, at select stores now. Brickset, Bricklink, S@H S@H quote Recover the stolen safe by water! Box- The box art for this set is very exciting, and bright. It certainly caught my eye when I saw it in the store, and I wanted to pick it up immediately. The logo for the Agents theme didn't change much, but now there is a 2.0 next to it. Intructions- The cover, same as the box art. Random page. The instruction are easy to follow, not too many problems with telling black and bley apart. The build took about 7 minutes. The Minifigs- A great way to start of a review of a set, is the show the minifigs. In this set, there are three excellent minifigs. Dyna-Mite, Dollar Bill, and Agent Fuse. By far, Dollar Bill is one of my favorite minifigs that I have ever gotten. Right now these figs are going for about 7 dollars on Bricklink, so it shows how many people want them. The Baddies- Check out his sweet diamond monicle- I really love the money sticking out of his pocket. Their backs, nicely printed, like most figs in the 2009 range, the dollar sign is cute, and the bomb is very well placed. The sweet hair pieces that are both new to those colors. Unfortunately, the red one is a bit low quality, it almost seems like a pre-production part! The good guy- This is Agent Fuses fourth time in a set. He is pretty standard, but nicely detailed. He has no back print. With the new armor piece. I'm a bit disappointed with the fact that the front is printed, it could be so useful in other places. His back, showing his scared face. No teeth? The accessories- This set comes with a decent amount of them, notice the gold gun and dynamite part. Its a shame that the set didn't come with a gun for Fuse. It would have been great if the gold gun which before seemed like Gold tooth's trademark was chrome, so Dollar Bill could have his own awesome gun. The safe- As an addition to this set, there is the target of the Baddies- the safe. It can hold three dollar bills, not exactly very much if you ask me. Its built nicely, it didn't break when I dropped it. Yup, still pretty cramped. The Speedboat- As usual, there always needs to be mini ship to accompany the main set. In this set, there is a speed boat, which is not that impressive. I like the aqua, but there is no silver following the Agents color scheme. It is pretty poorly built, and suffers from flick-fire missiles. Fuse in his boat. He can stand or sit, and if there weren't handlebars I would be very angry. The Super hovercraft- This is the main attraction in this set, It think it looks looks great in orange. Unfortunately, this part is a bit too small for my liking. The box art makes it look quite bigger than it really is. Unlike some, I think the lime highlights are fine, as is the rest of the color. The front is really empty, I think they should have kept the harpoon from the preliminary image. Front- Side- Back- I think the way they made the rotor is almost genius, I never saw anything like that in a set. It is really well built in the back, where the gears turn the propeller. The only slightly complicated part of the set. More views- The control panel, thank goodness its printed. It would be cool if we had a new print, that one is seen a lot. Bottom- I've wonder about the blue tiles, and I think they are either cheaper, or to blend in with water. Overall set- Here is the overall set, I think it is really good altogether. Solid, fun, and easy to play with. You wont get bored with them, unless you don't like flick-fire missiles. Well if you don't, just take them off, it's that easy. Ratings- Parts- Some fun and useful parts included, but some are very dull and common. The accessories included are excellent, but there could have been some more. Minifigs- Great selection, two unique figs, and one common. Dollar Bill is a creative excuse to give a pimp fig, and Dyna-Mite is pretty plain other wise. The red bob-cut almost looks like a pre-production part. Build- A nice but slightly repetitive build throughout. Some places things are just slapped on, and look like they did not put that much effort into. Price- For $20, it is a fair price. 203 parts is acceptable, but I think that it could have included some thing else, like a little bit more for the hovercraft. If there was a land platform as well, I'd be sold. Overall- 8/10 This set is fun. There are so many possibilities to do with it, and ways to mod it. I would recomend this to most, but only if you are buying this for a 'for fun' set. Besides the cool figs and parts, things are pretty shallow. So watch out, this set is making a splash into stores near you! One day Dollar Bill and Dyna-mite were coasting down the river with their loot, pursued by Fuse- 'Ha ha, we'll make it free in no time!' Until they saw a certain figure in front of them- 'Wha! Who is that?' 'You know who I am..,' A minute later- 'Ouch, I don't like money that much!' I hope you enjoyed the review!

I would like to start the bid for the purple parts at $4.00 EDIT: new bid, after seeing what VBBN said.

Thanks for cursing at me, I know why it says megabloks. Now I understand the hatred between you coats, even though I don't think they really represent the British or France. I guess its like any conflict.

One of the most interesting and cool mos Ive seen. Really, really, cool job.
-
Some miifigs are very expensive on BL, such as star wars figs or Maersk line promo figs. There is one that is worth $400! As for parts... are you asking about colors or parts them selves? Because I know that unless the part is really uncommon, it only matters about the color. For one, the green or bley baby T-rex is worth no more than 75 cents, but the ultra rare red one is worth $15.

Galactic Paranoia - Discussion Thread

Great, I Millacol88 died. Oh well, at least we played a good game. I wouldn't of died though, I would have won. -
Those look great! I love how intricately you made them, the thirds my fave. THe pics are fine, but if you want to improve, you might want to check out the reviewers academy. Also, if you want a 'sweet' avatar, I'll make you one if you like. Just tell me what you want it to be. Welcome!
-
I guess it took long enough to get a reply. I see you aren't a Star Wars buff, those are clearly clones. About the moc- its pretty cool considering that its only from the battle pack. I think you could have left some parts out to make it look sleeker, but its all good.
-
I hate it when depressing people like you make dumb threads like this about depressing things! So I really hate this thread!
-
It is Docter inferno's hair part- a pic- And the smoke is the ice cream piece.
-
Which ones? Did they have them all? And to start a new discussion, how much do you all think the max security transprt will cost? My bet is 40.
-
And here..we GO! I took some pics of what the $10 set is, excuse the crappy pictures please. It has about 100-115 parts, pretty rare for a now a day set. Oh well, this could have been sold in 1999 when that was normal. The whole set Just the outpost Back The flyer (I forgot propellers) Figs- Some exotic one here, the dudes on the right are the rebels. I call it- Outpost Assault.

New Spongebob magnetsets/keychains
Natman8000 replied to Navy Trooper Fenson's topic in LEGO Licensed
They aren't even attached. They are normal figs, but with magnet bricks included. The magnets aren't attached to the fig at all. -
I think so, but Algernon would have to confirm it. And yes ground things are fine, just look at the turret I made. It doesn't fly.
-
Interesting to see this revived. Algernon, I'm up for making a $10 set, I'll post it tommorow perhaps. I built fast.
-
Of coarse you could! However, this is getting very much off topic. So PM if you need any more details. Anyhoo, can someone explain to me the animosity between these 'coats'?
