  1. I think this is the first MOC I've seen of Hapes and it is gorgeous! What a wonderful take on this planet. And I have to ask, where did you come by so many tan profile bricks? 2 Disney castles?
  2. @WhiteFang Thanks for adding those details! While not the main draw to this series, I do think it adds appeal to these figures. One mistake I caught is that you said Schweinsteige's hairpiece comes in reddish brown when it should be blonde
  3. Thanks WhiteFang! I'm glad you were able to do this review. This is a great series and I wish Lego had marketed it in the US as well as Western Europe. I was able to get my hands on about 10 of the figures and I can vouch that they are all amazing as we've come to expect from the CMS line. One suggestion I would make to the review would be a commentary on each figs hair-piece. Many of them have (or had at the time of release) exclusive colored hair-pieces. Like Toni Kroos is the only fig to have Emmett's hair in medium nougat. Just a thought.
  4. Any further update on when the new tech prices for 1.0 will be posted?
  5. See the rest of the story: Season 1 Season 2 Season 3 Fleshing Out the Problem Bothan Data Hub Parting Ways MKJoshA led a couple troopers to the remote location of the Black Sun agent's hideout. Like many buildings on Bothawui, this one was decked out with all manner of surveillance and communication equipment. This particular Black Sun agent had been hiding on Bothawui under the guise of an information broker. Josh and his men followed a group of un-happy looking former customers of the Falleen to avoid showing up as intruders on the buildings security systems. "I told you," the Falleen said, "I can't help your employer gain access to any more data. It's become to risky. I think I'm being watched." "We don't care if you're getting cold feet" the Gran responded. "Our employer paid you with the understanding that you'd help us finish the job!" "Listen, I've given you the data you paid for" the Falleen continued. "I just can't get you any more." "But now you know what our employer is up to" interrupted the Gran. "He doesn't want to hire another person and have to give them that same intel. He naturally wants to keep the number of people in the know to a minimum." As much as Josh wanted to wait and see if these disgruntled customers would take care of the Falleen for them, he couldn't risk waiting any longer. He motioned for his men to move out. They rushed up the steep hill and were able to get some shots off quickly before the villains knew what was happening. The villains had the high ground, but Josh and his men had the element of surprise. It pained Josh to see life extinguished so quickly, but he reminded himself that these were beings who had made their choice and had chosen a path of evil. Now he was choosing to kill to them in order to save many others. He still didn't like it, but he knew his orders were given because innocent lives were at stake. They gave the Falleen a chance to surrender, but he began to raise his blaster at them so they had no choice but to riddle him with blaster bolts. The job was done. The Black Sun had lost another agent without them knowing it was the Rebel Alliance that was after them.
  6. Location: C10 Marden Tags: Vehicle, Land Vehicle, Exploration Last time, in Ender's story: Season 1 Season 2 A Man and His Dog Hamilton The Puffin Fight Night! Roomba Robot The Scurrier I Spy... Ender had been exploring the frozen wastes of Marden when he had spied a MANTIS patrol. He geared up and went out to tell them to get off his planet. He met up with the patrol in a red-tree field. (Judges, please note that the Green Mech is reused.) After some aggressive negotiations, MANTIS was persuaded to leave the area.
  7. Another LARGE update today. Hmmm. Maybe this one will finally fix things?
  8. Guys. Stay on topic. If you have questions about members, PM a moderator.
  9. If they make the version of the flying monkey that shows up in the Dimensions game but hasn't yet been created in brick form, maybe they'll make the Sauron figure that also shows up in the game.
  10. Great entry and story Thebeeze111! You've communicated a very ruthless of the Empire extremely well. As a gamemaster though, I do have to point out one thing. The official rules state that customs are only allowed with your sigfig. So the extra custom blasters you've included aren't allowed. Can you provide a shot of your build without the blasters that we can use for judging? We would then put that at the top of your post and hide the non-approved photos behind a spoiler tag. We don't want other players to get the wrong idea about being able to use custom and 3rd party weapons. All of the judges have seen your entry and we will judge the story as you've presented it so you don't have to worry about that. Thank you for working with us on this. I understand that the customs rule was not the easiest to understand and we are working on making it more clear for the future.
  11. When it snows, I like to sit inside and watch a good movie. Like the 15th reboot of Spiderman: (this was a great excuse for me to show off my custom Spidey)
  12. Looking at the pictures, it looks like Pink Batgirl's hair is slightly different from Barbara's in the Scuttler. The height position of the ponytail looks different to me, but it might just be that the hair tie is two different colors. Can anyone else help me confirm that?
  13. My A-team is broken too. Haven't been able to get it to work for 2 days now. EDIT: And now I have another hours long update. Maybe they are fixing more issues?
  14. They are from a Prince of Persia set. I bought a bunch of them off Bricklink.
  15. Amazing! I love the story and can't wait for the next chapter. Your effects are very well done and only add to your story IMO.
  16. See the rest of the story: Season 1 Season 2 Season 3 Fleshing Out the Problem Bothan Data Hub Out on the streets of Bothawui, two friends were saying goodbye. So this is it huh? I guess so. It's been a good run. I'm sorry to say goodbye, but I can't stick with the Rebellion forever. It doesn't pay the bills and besides, sticking my neck out for others really isn't my style. You stuck your neck out for me when you broke me out of prison. Yeah, but that was an exception. You should have heard Mon Mothma when she asked for my help. It was so pathetic! And besides, I couldn't just leave you to rot in that jail. Well, if I can't convince you to change your mind, then thanks for everything Kale. Who knows, maybe we'll meet up sooner than you think? Ever thought about spice running? The two friends chatted for a little longer, then parted ways. Later, back at the data center, Mon Mothma briefed MKJoshA on his next assignment. It's not going to be easy, but your the best man we have for the job. Are you sure you're up to it? I'm your man. I'll help take out Xizor's guy and then move on to the next assignment. Don't forget, you have to get out before Relve sees you. If he knows where you are, I don't know if we'll be able to get you out again.

Roomba Robot The Scurrier While exploring the frozen tundra of Marden, Ender spied something in the distance. It was a MANTIS scouting party! What were they doing on the Kawashita controlled side of the planet?
  18. So, none of the builds from last week have been judged yet. Am I okay to put up my week 69 build?
  19. Location: C10 Marden Tags: Vehicle, Land Vehicle Last time, in Ender's story: Season 1 Season 2 A Man and His Dog Hamilton The Puffin Fight Night! Roomba Robot OoC: Judges, the tv studio and the fighting baseplate are both re-used. ,,,It's the Scurrier! This is a robot to make all robot-kind proud. Top of the charts in every fight... ...and voted #1 robot you wouldn't want following you down a dark alley! The match has begun. Let us see who will win. The poor little guy never had a chance. Join us next time folks!
  20. Fantastic building and I'm loving your Bounty Hunter!
  21. Maybe because this is a kids game? *ducks while people throw things at him*
  22. Location: G09 Greater Drigo Tags: Vehicle, Land Vehicle, Spaceship Last time, in Ender's story: Season 1 Season 2 A Man and His Dog Hamilton The Puffin Fight Night! OoC: Judges, the tv studio and the fighting baseplate are both re-used. As Ender flew through the Marden system he continued to watch the Mech Wrestling on holo-tv. Alright peeps! We are back on the air after moving to our identically designed TV studio on a new hover-cam suite! We know you all want to see the next event, so without further, unnecessary explanation from my colleague about that move, here's the next robot contestant. Hey! First up tonight is the Roomba Robot. And who's up to fight this fancy vacuum? To Be Continued...
  23. I'm glad that there will be improvements, but I have to say I'm sad to hear AG 1.0 will end in the next few months. I'm been ready for the long haul and part of me will miss that. That said, one change I would like to see is in scoring. Right now I could spend 3 hours on a mech and get 3-4 points. I could also spend 8 hours on a 32x32 parts intensive landscape build and get 3-4 points. Can we weight the judging to tend to give more points for larger builds? If someone posts a fig-on-a-plate on a 32x32 plate, they shouldn't get more points, but maybe after that larger builds are judged on a scale of 3-7 instead of 1-7. And smaller builds can still get up to 7 points, but they range stays at 1-7. As for those worried about the Google Forms. We use them on Brethren of the Brick Sea without too much hassle. Filling the form out for AG would take less time than posting a topic.
  24. Yes, we are happy to have goatman running this episode! Let's show them that we can finally break our loosing streak Rebels!
