  1. This had a great classic town feel, laka! The lights coming out of the roof (as well as the chandelier) are nice touches to a good building.
  2. Beautiful vignette, cmaddison! The Iron Giant looks so soulful, and the SNOT ground with different colours looks great as well.
  3. Went downtown today and picked up 7965 Millennium Falcon. But I won't let myself get started until I've worked through a mountain of chemistry.
  4. Your roofs are incredible! The 2x2 tiles (with stud, I take it?) facing bottoms-out make the brown look more interesting. Lovely scene you've made here, Buurli_Burri!
  5. Great job in capturing the essence of the buildings, daystar!
  6. The set 3661 is one of the better City sets of recent years, and you've made it look really good as a modular building. It strikes me as more "suburban" than the modular city sets, but I can still imagine it would fit in with those buildings. The inclusion of a traffic light is a good touch. Great work, Luke Styer!
  7. That's a nice scene, Capt. Stabbin. I think the upside-down dark tan bush is a great way to represent the growth on palm trees beneath the new leaves.
  8. Your historic area looks great, and so does this bright green house. The glass canopy over the front door looks interesting. I love that you interspersed both brick-bricks and grille bricks to give the building some texture. Excellent MOC, castor-troy!
  9. Wow! The doors on the brown and small orange buildings are superb! All your buildings are jam-packed with detail. Welcome to EB, 2013-lego, and great work!
  10. I would be very comfortable with the Planet line continuing and using EU material, as long as TLG chose fairly recognizable locations. But of course, TLG will only continue the series if they see it as economically worthwhile. There's no reason, also, that TLG couldn't re-release planets with new vehicles, such as Tatooine with a Sandcrawler or Sail Barge, or Kamino with Jango Fett's Slave I. Hoth and an AT-AT, even.
  11. This set looks great; I would buy it if I had the chance. However, I think LEGO would print the bantha's mouth, rather than create a new piece that seems to be hidden to some degree under the animal's fur. I love the use of Darth Maul headpieces on the Tusken Raiders, though! Good work, Daiman!
  12. Beautiful! I love the splash of blue in the cheese slope roof, as well as the pillars and balcony. Great MOC, Stephle59!
  13. Your pizzeria is so very '90s, but fits in very well with your modular street! The building to the left of the pizzeria also looks very interesting and asks for more pictures. Good start to a good town, JDW!
  14. I hope New Mannum recovers quickly now that it has a new home. Good luck with the new LEGO room, lightningtiger!
  15. This is great - especially the building to which the dome is attached. I suppose the containers on the freighter are Modulex? The little wotsits made out of a stud and a tank tread are also pretty clever. Excellent work, Lt. de Martinet!
  16. Great work; just keep what you're doing. The upside-down ceiling looks a little confused with regard to colours, but it's built well. The stained-glass windows are another highlight. I look forward to seeing the complete MOC, ProfessorChaos!
  17. Your restaurant looks great, Kai NRG! The floor is nicely done and I also like the partial covering of the roof in snow.
  18. I'll go with eagles, because they as an animal are really cool and the figures are great. Also, out of the Chima factions, the eagles' vehicles look most similar to the actual animal.
  19. The spaceport does its job, but I really like the micro-scale spaceship! Great job using the handlebars to put some interesting shape into the spacecraft. Good job, Kai NRG.
  20. The interior of the Millennium Falcon is beautiful. I don't need to repeat what a great job you've done with the panelling in the corridors, but I will anyway. The tan tiles in the walls look great! The B-wing looks a very well-put-together model that I should build myself. The technic backbone seems more than sufficient to keep it together. Great work, Renegade Clone, and thanks for the B-wing instructions! Edit: spelling
  21. I prefer to see piece counts on boxes, but is this really a good idea for TLG? We, as hobby consumers of LEGO, find how many pieces each contains and we judge sets differently than people who buy sets as toys for children. People who buy sets as toys for their children would see a set like 4202 The Mine, for example, as extremely playable. It has lots of vehicles and a bulky-looking mine area. But if TLG had published that it contained 730 pieces (according to Bricklink), those prospective customers could have thought "Ah - that's not much" and passed on purchasing it in favour of a rival toy company's products. The same goes for recent Star Wars sets; they seem in some cases outrageously overpriced, but that's a conversation for a different topic. TLG want sets to sell, and if the number of pieces that is on the box does not match with what the customer expects by looking at the box, they might lose a sale. And we don't want TLG to lose money.
  22. To see member profiles, including your own, you need to get out of the "I'm New!" group and properly into the "Vassal" group; making "ten good posts" gets you there. See this thread (pinned at the top of this board) for more information about user ranks.
  23. It seems absurd that pigs should use exosuits, but they look good - especially the smaller one. It is so small and simple, but the technic parts really make me imagine legs, shoulder armour and nefarious arms. The people-pen is also nice, as is the laser-beam gate. Good job, Big Sal!
  24. The bending pieces on the butterfly and dragonfly models are very evocative of wings. Well done, Rook!
  25. I like the tubes coming out of the back of its body, but also the cooling system they are connected to inside. I prefer the "Soviet" colouring of the first picture to the olive-and-tan in the others, though. Great work, Sunder!
