You know even though Vader is a more Iconic figure, I just had to go threepio. It makes more sense for it to be gold. Frankly when I look at a pic of a chrome vader online I can't tell the difference from the regular one except maybe a little glint, but when I see a shiny 3P0 wow its great!

That's what I was initially thinking but wouldn't there be at least a bit more surprise from him when he saw it, at least a little jolt or change of voice inflection with the surprise. But who knows.

Holy Wow Mutley! You have effectively taken my breath away. I beg of you tap into your inner child and just make one crazy Clone Wars battle scene, if you haven't dissembled them You know you do sort of have the right idea, I wish I could do that: buy now, pay later. If you ever, ever want to sell anything, let me know, as I missed out on a lot of the older sets. I just hope some awesome sets come out right before the dreaded day where the license ends.

First of all I would just guess he got confirmation that it was in there from some one else, maybe a store owner knew he was getting one or something? Here's the problem I see with weighing things, one there could be missing parts or larger extra parts that could make things not compare well. Where the instruction manual is inside the box could possibly screw up the weight, especially if its a large box and manual. But most of all, isn't that a lot of work? I once heard people weighing packs of trading cards against each other to try and till which pack had the holographic card because that would offset the weight by like a gram Come on isn't that a little strenuous? How much does a Vader Package weigh anyway, it can't be that much. If I had to guess someone is probly taking a little pocket knife, cutting a whole in the side (just a small one so no one notices it) then taking a miniature flashlight and peeking around.

You know, I honestly think your idea Ricecracker is probably the better option. I'm ordering it now and think I will wait a month or so for the Dropship and AT-OT. Thanks for the advice!

Well I am a bit of a Star Wars Junki, so with the new Republic Dropship with AT-OT coming out in 3 days I have been planning to pick it up as soon as possible despite it's substantially large price. However I just saw that the Twilight was knocked down to $50 which is a great price for a set like that. Although its not the best thing ever it would be nice to have a ship for Ahsoka and Ani and with a few interior modifications it would be cool. I suppose I could get both but that's A LOT! So should I get expensive yet beautiful dropship with AT-OT or wait and snag the Twilight at a low price. Or should I try and stick the Twilight out hoping its price will stay down and pick it up when I can?

Haha if the outfit was orange and had mini legs yes I could see that, but that normally doesn't come to mind right away for me Anyway I actually really don't think the Mid Scale MF will have an interior, although it is an interesting question. It isn't very big, but i suppose it could have a mini interior. But that doesn't sound like something TLC would do. Either way I still probably wont get it, I find it kind of bland to be honest with you.

For a while I thought they might do that, but since we get Palpy with the Venator I highly doubt we will get another one. I hope it will happen, but to be honest I'd rather a big surprise be the continuation of the license rather than some new sets that TLC will take incredible shortcuts around.

The thing that annoys me the most is when someone walks into your house that you don't know all to well and sees your lego collection and says, "Oh, you still play with Legos?" In that odd little tone of voice, I mean what is the right answer to that? They act as if it's bad to make shooting and exploding noises while holding little yellow people

Wow, I've never really been had to much interest in contests but this one has really got me excited, I can not wait to see all of the details. I think I might just give this one a shot, whether I do horrible or great I think this will be a great experience for everybody, novice or expert, padawan or master

I'm sure that has been posted somewhere in here, but as I look further at the Home One pictures it looks pretty complete, so is it going to be released in august or will it be released in September like TLC said when the voting was going on?

Wow what a great way to make an entrance I love the entire scene, what a great use of pieces and how you were able to map everything out. This makes me want to make something like this, great job! I hope to see more from you soon, I'll be watching, but not in a creepy way...most of the time

Hmm interesting, thanks for letting me know what fighter it is They certainly don't look exactly alike (Like my fighter has the streaked "wings" on the back and is a bit more bulky) but there are a few similarities (the cockpit type, the overall design, and naturally the dark color).

Great! Thank you KimT Thank you, that does seem to sum it up, I am rather proud of this MOC Hmm that does share quite a resemblance, although I have never seen it before, that is pretty funny What ship is that? I would love to see an MOC of that, a sleek design like that isn't always easy to create!

Well first in my personal opinion, and in no particular order: Best - Star Wars Castle Pirates Worst - Exo-Force Agents (Please, don't shoot me, don't shoot!) Bionicle However when it comes to the sets inside these themes, things are mixed up a bit, and again no particular order Best- City Star Wars Pirates Worst- Bionicle Mars Mission Power Miners (Maybe they will grow on me, but it is just to much of a technic lego mix for me to appreciate it)

Rocky Walls and mountains were never my strong point and I have overall tried to avoid using them due to my lack of skill, however they look so great. I guess you could say I have a mountain deficiency or something If someone could be so kind to create a tutorial or let me know if there is one already written that would be great, haha I'm sure it will help a lot of us whose strengths aren't in the mountain area.

Not for me, I'm in the US and it says "Not Available" I wonder why it's up, hopefully it will come back, I'd buy it

First of all thank you for whoever edited the title, I was up late when I posted it and just wanted to get to bed Well Penguin That really is a great way to look at it and very true A great MOC creator can use what ever there is to make a masterpiece, hopefully I'll aspire to that one day! Thanks again for all the comments everyone

Thanks Penguin!! Means a lot, I wish I could make more MOCS and I think I will try to, but I really don't dis-assemble my sets so sometimes it's hard to come by some pieces, I guess I just got lucky with this one Thanks again!!

Haha since it is all black and has that certain style, well let's just say I think Batman and Vetnress' will just have to share

That set, is definitely one of my dream sets, this will be the first set I buy no matter how much it is. I really have to give credit to TLC for listening to us and then giving us such a great set, I really wonder how it hooks on, and I hope it's secure I don't know how they suck this CRAZY AWESOME bad boy under the radar, just wow Thanks for posting and I can't wait to see more pictures from the toy fair!

Well thanks a lot everyone for the great comments, glad it turned better then I expected I to wasn't very sure what she used and I thought it just better to work from the imagination so I taped into my inner child and did so Anyway here is the back view where you can see the thrusters better, I know the color scheme is a bit off but well I didn't have any of the rotators in black

Well I just thought I would do a fun little Starfighter, and Ventress' seemed that she needed one so ta-da. This is simply an own creation, no relevance to any starfighters Ventress' had (Although I thought she mainly flew around in the shuttles, anyway) Well I would like some opinions on this as I don't really do MOCS often, so let me know, thanks Front Shot Full View Expanded Cockpit with Lightsaber Holsters I have a few more shots that aren't really necessary but if you want to see them I'll gladly resize and upload them and put them up. Thanks again!

No, still not playing in St. Louis But it is a good thing to see that it is expanding further, and hopefully there will be a second expansion

Thank you everyone for the wonderful comments!! I have been crazy busy and I did update it with Grey 1x2s so I'll take some pics soon. Winbrant: Those sound like great mods, if you could post pictures of them that would be great! iH Master 13uilder17: Sure, it'll be up sometime tommarow
