  1. Yup, I'd say that is pretty decisive.
  2. And why does this guy call LEGO pirate lego? If anything, it's megablocks that stole TLC's idea. Anyhow, the model looks awful. It's way too jagged, it looks more like you could cut meat with it providing you don't plan on eating it.
  3. Thanks MacK! Unfortunately, because of my Dark Age, I don't have a good number of models with inspirational models but I will try the ones that I do have.
  4. OK, here are two models that I've made from the box inspiration for the sets 7250 Clone Scout Walker and 7258 Wookiee Attack. I hope you enjoy! 7250 - Self Propelled Light Armoured Turbolaser (SPLA-T) Scorpion Turbolaser: Some background on the SPLA-T: The SPLA-T is a small but powerful turbolaser artillery unit. It is entirely capable of taking on smaller ground targets as well as some of the smaller starships. Due to the vulnerability of the driver, small remote-controlled shield generators (the little thing on the turbolaser's right) were also produced to go along with the artillery units. After awhile, the SPLA-Ts became obsolete compared to the larger SPHA series but still found use among pirates and smugglers. 7258 - Heavy Assault Droid Tank (HADT) and two Wookiee Anti-Infantry Speeders: OK, the inspiration for this model: And the model itself: And a better picture of the droid tank: Some background on the HADT: The HADT is a heavy droid tank, produced in small numbers. Although armed with a powerful cannon, it was vulnerable due to the angles of its weapons. The two small cannons were used for short-range anti-infantry combat while the large cannon was capable of firing heavy plasma-based projectiles and was capable of destroying vehicles up to SPHA-T size. Used to some effect during the Battle of Kashyyyk, the HADTs use in the CIS army was stopped at the end of the war. The few produced fell into the hands of pirates and were a fairly common sight during raids. I hope that you enjoy them and I'm sorry for the lack of images - I don't yet have a digital camera.
  5. I'm loving the recent ant-building spree. And the Golden Ant! That should definitely be the fifth Indiana Jones movie, no doubt.
  6. Happy Birthday Sinner! Have a great day!
  7. Woah! That is amazing! The obelisks are great, the statues of the Egyptian gods are really cool, and the stargate is really good. My only criticism is that the pyramids are a bit small. Other than that, great job!
  8. Thanks for the review! This set looks great and I really wish I had the money to buy the entire line. But unfortunately, I don't. I love the way TLC used the wing parts to the Jedi Interceptor for the life raft - very well thought of. Anyhow, great review!
  9. Awww..... Why couldn't it come out on PC as well? I don't have either a Wii or a DS.
  10. Welcome Rook! It's great to have you here!
  11. I'm pretty sure it's: 7673 - Magna Guard Fighter - July 26th? 7674 - V-19 Torrent - July 26th? 7675 - AT-TE - July 26th? 7676 - Republic Gunship - July 26th? 7677 - ? - ? 7678 - Droid Gunship - ? 7679 - TX-130S Fighter Tank - ? 7680 - The Twilight - ? 7681 - Homing Spider Droid - ? 10188 - Death Star - ?
  12. Agreed. A whole Mon Calamari Star Cruiser is definitely needed more than just the command deck and an A-Wing.
  13. I think that it looks a whole lot better in grey than in blue. This, to me, should have been the way TLC designed it.
  14. Excellent job! That is an amazing diorama!
  15. I'm fairly sure that there is 3 "grunts" in the RGS. I also think that LEGO may increase the number of clones in the AT-TE. Look at this picture: I think it looks like an extra clone in the front of the walker and well as one on the cannon! Let's hope it's true!
  16. I just watched the Bourne Identity last night. That was such a great movie, way better than Bond!
  17. Sounds cool! I look forward to seeing this happening.
  18. Have the 08 castle sets (besides the Troll Battle Wheel) been released everywhere in the US or are they just on S@H and at TRU?
  19. Thanks for the welcome guys! SW is the only line I buy but I also like Mars Mission and Castle sets. Unfortunately, SW is the only one I buy since it's my favourite and I don't have much money.
  20. My votes went to: Impulse: Jaudeau - I just loved that idea for a set! Small Set: Dufresne - I really like the idea of a cannibal tribal queen. Large Set: FelixTheCat - The island and storyline behind your entry really caught my attention! Good job.
  21. Sorry, I meant the around the same time as the Falcon of last year.
  22. Around the same time the UCS Falcon came out?
  23. Woah! Is that a real cake? Anyhow, Happy Birthday to Palin Jax! Have a great day, filled with LEGO.
  24. I always have called it LEGO. But the rest of my family insists on saying "legos," no matter how much I tell the it's wrong.
  25. Nice job! If only the ones that came with the snowspeeder sets were like that.
