How many are planning to fly to Billund ?

I remember back in 2006, flying from Amsterdam to Pretoria in South Africa, we did not fly straight, but much more east than normal, over Sudan, Ethiopia etc. to avoid possible ash from an eruption in Congo.

Those Belgians are very clever, they realize that the best toys come from Denmark

Regarding Danish currency DKr (Danish Kroners) For those that want some Danish currency, I am always interested in some Euros, so we may simply make an exchange. I will make sure I've got a bit of dKr with me.

I am getting more and more ready. Lovely minifigure display.

Very nice. I will have to try this at work tomorrow. Are you actually the guy that we shall thank for pushing TLG to allow this Universe mode ? I think you will find a brick that is very old in the palette. Not in production for many years.

Maybe you can be picked up quickly and join somewhere in thurdays program. I'm pretty sure it can be arranged.

First page

8:30 is perhaps the latest you should be there Thursday. There is stuff scheduled .....

I showed of some Stronius pictures the 31st of May, maybe a week after people started to get the sets.

There is no doubt that the diver is the best minifigure of 2010 but having 40 ? I don't even have 10. I haven't even seen the polybag version other than pictures.

Stupidity has taken on a new level. I've seen this one selling for about 1 US dollar.

A good solution could be the use of 2444 attached to bricks with Tecnich holes though Techninc bushings. A bit of calculation is needed though, if the roof should use two of these pieces, both at the bottom and at the top of the roof.

Ok, I'll start with new dates. What about 23st to 26th of December ? Legoland is closed, there is noone at work at Lego, and we will have it all for ourselves. I've already booked a flight to the moon, it's leaving the 20th of April.

I was in the park too this saturday (opening day) and had some nice hours together with Henning and other guys from "Byggepladen" I never managed to try the new stuff in the park.

One thing that is possible it to place the Bionicle sized balls between two Technic beams, so that the ball fits in between two Technic holes. It will give a ball-link with more or less zero friction. But off course the movements will be limited somewhat by the cross axle colliding with the two beams. But still is allows some 3D movements.

To me this surely looks like 3D rendered animation, with movements that makes it look a bit like Stop-motion at times. How on earth does this video appear four months after launch ? We are getting closer to Hero Factory out in the stores.

I only see fake adverts

Copmike, you don't deserve this girl. If the figures are available to me before EB event, I will throw random thick poly-bags at you, making sure though, by CT-scanning, that no cheer leaders are inside.

What is the likelihood that there will be two helmets released, that design wise is nearly, but only nearly exactly the same ? btw. I see Skrall stuff on the pictures :-) No comment to what colours it will have

Well I have thought about it ever since 2001. Motorcycles has been a big part of my life since I was a little child. When we (family) drove on the highways down through Germany or similar, I could spot out nearly every model driving towards us. That was at the age of 8 or 10 years old. When I had a bike I drove a lot of kilometers, I would just jump on my bike and do a little "twist of the wrist" just for the fun of it. Well everybody does this, but I kept on doing it week after week, year after year. Then I crashed. Badly. Was picked up by helicopter and flown to hospital in Bergen (Norway). Had a fracture to shin and thing of the left leg, including some cuts in that leg. Took a month to get out off hospital, much more to have my last surgery. Everything went fine, but I used to do high jump and stuff, and had to realize that that and similar is history. I then picked up cycling, and have both Mountain bike and race bike. I love it. Is it like motorcycling ? No. But it's not nearly as dangerous or expensive. Doing a lot of kilometers cost money big time in a country like Denmark, and bikes have 200 % tax, though cost about 3 times as much as they do in e.g. UK. I have several times wondered if I should get a new bike, but then think about all the money I would spend on it. Then there is crashing. I drive way too fast, especially in corners. I have got older, learned my lesson, got hurt, I might be able to ride more sensible. One thing about motorcycles that has not diminished one tiny bit, is my love for Road Racing. I used to be a "mechanic" for a friend who did 250cc racing back in the late 80s. I have visited Assen as spectator four times for GP and once for Superbike World Championship. Visited Anderstorp in Sweden for the last two GP's held there in was it '87 and '88 ? Watched the 1999 24H moto-Le Mans race all by my self, among thousands of crazy French people, after doing a tour from Denmark to the Pyrenees in Spain and back up to France (Le Mans) in early April. I still watch GP on television, well on my PC, as I stream all the races live without commercials from motogp.com. Just renewed my 2010 subscription, and have watched the 1993 and 1994 GP500 championship the last weeks or so. NOSTALGIC. I hope you enjoy your bikes guys, I may not have one the next ten years, but maybe some day. Ride safely, please.

A Skrall armor I would guess was something that appeared back on the 2009 Skrall set. I might be blind, but I don't see any on Xplode.

Look at the new pictures, they are official, they tell the truth about how the products will look like. But Skrall armor, I have no idea where that appear in red. Do you see that in any picture ?

Having finished my entry several days ago, I really started doubting today, turned my entry up-side-down, gave it another 90 degree rotation, and am now satisfied again. Looking forward to the 20th of April. Hoping for good weather I am.
