    When I saw the ship in a bottle reach 10,000 supporters I knew it was going all the way. Like another poster wrote, it's a perfect display piece. Adult buyers will grab this and I'm sure it will be big at Christmas. I think it looks cool and will try to pick it up. I bet the price will be decent too.

    That's the way it is with tournaments. Only one can win and there are tough match ups. If the lesser ones sneak by they get taken out by the stronger ones. Tournament!

    Anyone have a guess at which figure will win it all? Not necessarily your favorite, but which has the gravitas to take the contest. My initial thought would be maybe series one zombie, spartan, or series 3 elf.

    I always love figbarf, and this is some of the highest quality. Love the pirate lass, mummy, and hunter god. But really all of them. Nice work!

    So was the guard in on it? I didn't quite catch that. Nice story crammed into four minutes. I would definitely watch a second installment.

    Great build and really creepy. Just thinking of that movie brings back some scary memories.

    I have to agree with others in saying the colors really contrast and pop. Nice little village!

    The crowd is great and natural looking. They dont look so stilted or linear like they so easily can sometimes. I think the way youve situated all your figs in this give it so much character. Kudos!

    Well, to be honest, it shouldnt be difficult. 160 is not too big a number. Remember that they are toys and meant to be played with, and are pretty hearty. My kids' figs get heavy use and show no wear. You could simply pack them in any sort of container and fill the remaining space with a soft material like foam or even a towel or clothes. That would prevent them moving and grinding against each other, though even if they did theyd still be mint in the end. Dont overthink it, theyll be fine and you probably have lots do and pack, good luck :)

    Well, I think that they look pretty good. That is coming from someone who had no interest in this series at all. Mickey and Minnie look accurate and I dont really think they look odd. The headgear in this series should excite everyone! Alladins is really cool. Ursula's, and Malefacent's too. Pan's hat/hair combo will be showing up in many historic builds here and Syndrome's is wild. Ill be getting most of these figs.

    All the targets around me have tons of S14 but no S15 yet too. I wonder if they have them but are waiting to get rid of the 14's.

    For the cyborg I wouldnt be surprised if they gave us the laser robot with a new color scheme for the for the 17th time. (Eye roll)

    You dont have listed the guys who come with the current set. Tasu Leech and whoever the Kanjaclub gang guy was in the movie before the escape fight with those big ugly creatures.

    Couple book questions: Are you planning on a physical or ebook? Potential release date? I'd definitely buy the book when it comes out!

    Its hard to say. It may happen right away but I dont notice it at the time or it happens later and i catch it then.

    I have some cracked figs and I chalk it up to arm and hand removal. With arm removal I have mostly noticed splits from the armpit to the bottom of the torso or some length in between. For hands the split will be in the wrist making hands super loose. Its so sad when a prized fig cracks

    Based on the bricklink link you provided it looks like it originated in 1995 in the royal knights series. Did you look in the "sets" link?
  18. egg roller
    That's interesting. I'll have to pay attention and see how it holds up Thanks for digging that up. I agree, some of those ratios in the Galaxy Squad and Ultra Agents stink. I suppose they could be better for Ninjago 2016, but the figs that I've seen are pretty darn good so far.

    Sorry if this has been asked and answered but, is it usual for sets to contain so few minifigs? Looking at the set descriptions, many of them contain only two. Just by paging my memory back a little, seems like most sets usually have more. What do you think?

    I really wish TLG would just make Boudon's designs with no changes. I, like some others, love the shepherd guy with chicken staff. The face print on that one is fantastic as well. What needs to change on that? I suppose part of it is the current designers probably want to put their mark on their work. But really, why mess with perfection?? Also, the Avatar-looking guy would be awesome, the dwarf wizard, and the guy to the left of the undead warrior. I think his designs are unmatched.

    Without having a particular part in mind I will say this. I dont necessarily despise oversized accesories. The wrench and walkie, I think, are fine. I really like the new (or old?) magnifying glass. The oversized nature of the parts are mostly functional; how can you really make tools more to scale? I think their size is part of the overall minifig charm. All that said, the scimitar though is a bit outlandish.

    I totally second greek or roman inspired lines. With or without mythological aspects. Also they could do hercules and his adventures. Could you imagine? Gorgans hydras, nymphs, et al? That would be awesome. I realise TLG takes some amount ofcalculated risks, see nexo knights, but really they stick to a formula that works for their bottom line. I would like them to take the risk on greek/roman stuff. They might be surprised. Even small first wave to test the waters. Finally, STOP the red vs blue. Please!!! There are almost literally unlimited other colors to choose from.

    Haha, This. Yes, Sci's drawings were wonderful depictions of the catalogue (unfortunately). Really nicely drawn, and charming. I only wish I could say the same for the actual product. There looks like there could be some cool sigils, but they are connected to the clunky, tech-ridden shields. And what's more is it looks like Red vs. Blue again yaaaayyy!!! Pass.

    Series one zombie. I love the face print on it and the gray tattered clothes are perfect. Its a real shame that they are prohibitively expensive
  25. egg roller
    Thanks for this review. I had no idea that there were dedicated sites to this. Its a shame thay arent done better but if someone made a site for the trade of all minifigs, that would be really cool. If bricklink incorporated this aspect that would be ideal as they already have the user base and +\- feedback.
