  1. Most impressive, especially the bottom. Very nice SNOT! The SNOT part looks a bit fragile, though. Any problem with falling pieces? Once again, great job!!
  2. I´m glad to hear that. I just ordered that set yesterday and I was wondering if the bags were numbered or not. Thanks!
  3. S&H: 10212 coming soon on 1 Sep 2010! 2 days earlier :)
  4. I'm curious to know if there will be any interior in the 10212 (beside the cockpit), since it's a UCS set. Do you guys think that 10212 has the same minifig scale as the 10179 MF? If wookiepedia is correct, the lambda shuttle (20 meters) is aproximadelly half the lenght of the millennium falcon (34,75 meters).
  5. The third option is correct! She´s also a star wars addict. But you´re right. She would probably prefer to place a table like that in a private room. My only concern is related to space.
  6. Very nice table you got there, Jogi! What a coincidence! I was recently planning to build for my MF a display table very similar to yours. I have always thought a MF would look superb in a living room. Although my inicial plan was to design it rectangular, as brickfoot suggested. Anyway, thanks for posting your table! It gave me some ideas.
  7. I share the same feelings for this one. I´ve always imagined a lego town with the 4564 Freight Rail Runner, this set, the 4555 Cargo Station and the 6542 Launch and Load Seaport. Lot´s of containers and playability! By the way, thanks for the excelent review on this one. This set is definitely on my wish list.
  8. Thanks a lot! By the way, I´ve just edited the text in order to fix some english mistakes and mispellings.
  9. Name: Railroad Club Car Ref: 10002 Theme: Legend Year: 2001 Pieces: 273 Minifigs: 05 Intro First of all, I would like say a few short words. Since I was a kid, I have always been a huge fan of lego. The trains, in especial, used to keep my imagination rolling. Nevertheless, I've never got the chance of getting the coolest lego sets when I was a kid, since TLC did never produce or sell their eletric sets here in Brazil, where I live. My parents also couldn't afford to import those sets, because of the high costs. I once had the chance of buying the #4564 Freight Rail Runner when I travelled to Germany, but that was it. Now that I'm grown up, I decided to recover some lost time, and started to collect my favourite train sets, which include the RailRoad Club Car. So I trully hope you enjoy the review of this excellent lego set, which, by the way, is the legend version of the #4547, as many of you already know. The Box Here it comes. It's all black and white, just like the legend version of the Metroliner. It seems that the employess of my train station are having a little trouble with some very angry passengers. What could it be? I think i know what the problem is. Do you all recall that the old lego sets used to come with lots of minifigs? Well, although the Metroliner is considered one of the biggest passenger trains ever produced by TLC, I'm afraid there ain't enough room for all that mob. This is getting worse. They're taking hostages now! We better get started then! Inside the Box Here is what we got: The first thing that caught my attention: 2 sticker sheets? Wrinkled structions. Can't blame the seller. It's been almost 10 years now, since that box was first sealed up. Oooops. Extra page? I believe TLC made a little mistake in one of the instructions pages. That's right. Where it should be page 21, they repeated page 19. Now it's right! The minifigs I'm not sure if the other angry passengers will like the idea of a brand new and already crowded Railroad Club Car... The building begins Sinks! Nice touch. The passengers better be carefull not to get their heads wet while sleeping. A radio, maybe? Some colours! And a glass of lemon juice in the back. Yes, that day was particularly hot. In my opinion, this is one of the best colour schemes that TLC has ever come up with. Windows! More windows. And more lemon juice. The second floor. Simple mechanism, yet very effective. The car in it's full glory! Only one blue piece left. (and a sticker sheet ) Hmmm. I smell trouble. The new passengers are already boarding the Club Car. They should have let the angry passengers go first. OMG! The hostages!!! I wasn´t fast enough. If those new passengers have any love for their lives, they shouldn't leave that Club Car. What?!?! Is that Admiral Ackb.... "It's a traaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaap!!!!!!!!" Oh no. They should have listened to Admiral Ackbar. Regarding traps, he never lies. I guess now we'll need a new driver for the train. Who volunteers? Let's take a look at the full train. Overall This is indeed a magnificent set. It fits perfectly with the other cars. A must have for any Metroliner owners. Nevertheless, I must say that the train gets quite heavy with this extra car, making it hard to move with one single train motor. If you have a spare one, I suggest you use it. I hope you enjoyed this review, as I much as I did preparing it. See ya!
  10. Hello! I recently built the 1044 Sandcrawler and I can assure you that it's not as fragile as the ISD. If you take care when building and playing with, you won't have many problems. Regarding the UCS x Sandcrawler, I believe they serve for different purposes. If you like playing with your legos, I would definitively suggest the 10144, since it provides lots of great MFs and helps to recreate the movie scene where Luke and his uncle Lars go out to buy new droids. I also think it's a very good looking model and just looks great on the shelf. See ya!
