  1. You seem to really have a knack with these, and this one is no exception to awesome Yes the red back is a not the best but hey work with what you have :)
  2. Did anyone think in "Jedi Crash that Aayala didn't take enough initiative, wouldn't she be calling the shots a bit more and have gone with Rex to see Anakin, not let a Padawan go alone. I think that in the series they belittle the power of the Jedi Council and make Anakin and Ahsoka quite a bit stronger than they should be. Just a pet peeve of mine, however in retrospect yes it was one of the better episodes! I just wish that they could give the powerful Jedi the power they deserve.
  3. Well I had myself a little 09 shopping spree, using some Visa gift card's I got over Christmas I went to Target and Toys R Us and picked up 4 Clone Battle Packs, The Separatist Spider Droid, and the wonderful Solar Sailer. All great fun builds and I can't wait to make a crazy awesome battle scene
  4. I do like the Medieval Market Village box, very cool! However the Clone Wars boxes look very sleek (but I still can't wait until the summer sets where the boxes change to red) But I have to say I love the Star Wars Anniversary Box (i.e Vader's Tie) It's very retro but still sleek, haha I love it
  5. Congratulations Zorro, I've never gotten to formally congratulate you, you've helped me out quite a bit, and you deserve the promotion! So Congrats!
  6. I know It's been said a million times in the last few pages but these sets are MAGNIFICENT! I love every single one, I didn't even plan on buying the snail droid or the Y wing but they just turned out to beautiful not to. Not to mention the wonderful new box art, it's definitely a great change of pace! Just a few thoughts of mine regarding some of the sets The Y wing: No surprise, it comes with Ahsoka and Anakin, but oh well. The set itself is nice though, I was surprised how full it looks, I think it's good, however the front does look a little boxy, but not a deal breaker, The bubble turret looks great as well The Snail Droid - This is infinity better than the one that came in wookie attack, better color scheme, bigger, simply looks better, well done TLC! The Venator - this looks much better at that angle, I would still love to see what they did with the interior though, hopefully they're is something nice in there. I see it drops bombs, ok not the best think in the world but oh well. CIS shuttle - Looks great, not how I thought it would look, but for 300 pieces it looks good, definitely a buy! Thank you ever so much for the pictures!
  7. Haha you're really a fan of cliffhangers huh? Anyway I can't wait to see more, this is simply marvelous :) Keep it up!
  8. Not only is the Star Wars aspect of this simply awesome but it's also really creative. It really does look great, very nice Diorama!!
  9. I...I...LOVE THEM I will certainly pick up both of them, and I'll probably get two to three of Hoth sets to update my Echo base (MOC, not the crap set) I like the AT-ST in the Endor set, and I would like to see some closer picks of the bunker itself, but it appears that TLC has been generous with the Minifigs for once Thank you so much for the wonderful pictures, you made my day Can't wait for some ones with better resolution!
  10. I'm usually not a fan of comics but this one caught my eye, I can not wait to see more, keep them coming! I especially like the change in plot, making the Jedi appear as the bad guys, you don't see it often and it is a bit refreshing, not that I'm for the confederacy though
  11. Actually I wouldn't mind one of those Escape Pods you described Darth Legolas, but I'm just plain sick of the ones we usually get, I hope we do get a miniature Palpy's office (Because it seems we are getting a home one as the fan choice ) and hopefully a hologram table of some sort, I don't have high expectations seeing the size of the preliminary picture but hopefully they can do something great with it.
  12. I guess I have to say design, because even though I really do mainly focus on Star Wars I do have Castle, Pirates, Town, Indiana Jones, Creator and Technic so if the design is good and the price is decent I'll buy it. However Minifigs and rare parts are definitely a great bonus
  13. Wow great design and concept for this, the way you carried it out was wonderful, I love it!
  14. I just got my Asimo robot today and love it it really is a great collectible. Thank you to who ever sent it to me and thank you Sinner for organizing this great event!
  15. Favorite was definitely the Republic Attack Gunship, a great remake of a great set Lease favorite was without doubt the the Lego Star Wars At-AP , Yes I know it was not exactly the most hated but to me it was a let down. An open bottom? definitely a major design flaw, and the 3 legged thing did seem a bit odd (why would a 3rd leg be needed to retract anyway?), to me the whole set was odd and they were scraping the bottom of the Walker Barrel, hopefully better walkers are to come (I am actually a fan of the new battle pack Walkers, better I think)
  16. Haha I guess we have our confirmation, all I can say is I hope they make it a bit bigger or pictures come out that are a bit more flattering
  17. Sorry Samxsteal but I think that you're wrong, in that helmet from Brickforge, it doesn't close at the bottom. As in the holes for the eyes and mouth are completely cut out and there is no plastic sealing the bottom of the helmet. Where as on a close up of the guards you can see it does.
  18. I went into Photoshop since it has better quality then Paint and found a few things out you all may be interested in The think the thing in Palpy's hand looks like a hat to me, since it does match his robe. You can also see that black crease going through the middle which does make it look a bit like a hat to me. This is just another picture that I did that makes the Venator look a bit better. I too saw what looked like might be a hanger door, maybe they are trying to do the exterior non-minifig scale and the interior regular minifig scale.
  19. Oh man, I sincerely hope this isn't real, it looks awful in my opinion. It is far to short and stubby, and if this comes out I don't think I'll buy it. None the less thanks for the picture Legomilk. I have to say the only think that could convince me to buy the set would be a crazy awesome interior, and judging by the looks of it, it's not going to happen. Hopefully we can get a confirmation or denial soon.
  20. Definitely a hard design to Lego-afy () and you nailed it, congrats, looks great!
  21. Actually if they made an escape pod like that instead of that normal shell that they used in the ISD and latest non UCS Millennium Falcon, I suppose even if they did do that I could at least MOD it but let's face it, it would be ten times better if they did that. I think the most I would pay for one would be $130, but it would have to have a lot of good features. Here is the official definition for bridge by the way A raised transverse platform from which a power vessel is navigated: often includes a pilot house and a chart house. Hopefully the detail on the outside would be pretty good but not to good to take away from the interior.
  22. Darth Legolas I agree with just about all your hopes for the Venator, since the word has come out that it may be smaller then the ISD. I seriously hope there will be some sort of interior, a bridge would be nice but it seems unlikely, I would imagine there will be a small somewhat out of scale section that will hold one "pilot" each, which be better then nothing I guess but not great. I would also like some sort of control area with maybe something like the "control room" On the echo base 7666. Also maybe some sort of Hologram table that is seen in the Clone Wars series often would be good to, this could all fit into the somewhat small interior of a Venator, I just beg of you, please, not another escape pod Hopefully they will develop a way to get an interior without making the set to fragile.
  23. Unfortunately KimT is right and I fear we won't see many 09 sets until February or late January, I went to Target and Toys R Us for the last time in 2 weeks searching for the sets and they have nothing, I think Toys R Us may have had them at one point but they flew out the door within the first few hours. I gave in and just went to S@H to buy what I wanted, even though some stuff is back ordered there to I guess patience really is a virtue
  24. Really? If I may ask, where do you live?
  25. Thank you posades and trexxen, I think I will just wait, I can imagine they will restock them some time soon, possibly next week. Thanks for the news and it seems like at least you posades had some better luck then me However If I get to impatient I'll just order them off S@H since I have to get the Medieval Market Village off there anyway, thanks for the answers
