Sweet! I love how you mix up both stories and adapt the naes to suit. Jessie and Woody look very odd with the clothing and cowboy hat combo!

Name: 30042 Mini Sub Theme: Atlantis Pieces: 41 (inc Minifigure) Minifigures: 1 Price: £2.49 Release: 2010 Brickset Bricklink I picked two of these up in Tesco yesterday for a good price. The set is very good considering how small it is, and it fits right in with the ret of the sets in the Atlantis line-up! Lets get on with the review... Packet & Instructions: The front shows the Submarine cutting through the deep waters, with the Portal Structure in the background. The back is just lots of writing and a barcode, so nothing too special here. The instructions are standard size for a promo set, and come folded. Here is a picture of the assembly page... The back shows the sets from the first wave. I noticed a difference between the positions of the arms on the packet and instructions. On the latter they are facing inwards, but I think the packet-art looks more accurate. Parts: A good selection of pieces with some interesting highlights... The head is double-sided; one side a happy expression and the other a heart broken expression. Reminds me of Captain Antilles from Tantavine IV! The Build: Not complex at all, but I speak as a TFOL and not a small child. Random stage: This picture shows the use of a white stud in the front headlamp/computer hub. A nifty technique is incorporated half way through the build making the side suports more sturdy. Finished Product: Viewpoints: The back propeller is fastened on by a technic pin. Spares: Who doesn't want a couple of spare studs and a grey technic pin? Ratings: Parts: 9/10 ~ Great selection for a set this size Minifigures: 10/10 ~ The figure is highly detailed, and I can't imagine more than one in a promo, so it's full marks! Build: 8/10 ~ Pretty average build which leads up to a good model, with some nice techniques along the way! Price: 8/10 ~ Could be a little cheaper, but it was still worth it! Playability: 8/10 ~ Good for swooshing and picking up LEGO objects, but nothing much apart from that. Overall: 86% Parting picture; "Fear us, beasts of the deep!"

If Assaj leaves the series in some way, I want to see Durge make a comeback. He'd look so awesome in the new animated style! Perhaps Maul's people have the markings because they wanted to honour him as a great warrior? -
It'll be a bit of both, just look at the picture I posted earlier in the thread that everyone seems to have forgotten about.
-
Two Atlantiz Mini-Sub promos, two Cheerleaders, and a diver. Have there been any reviews for the Mini-Sub set already?
-
Ooo! Nice rumours! Saesee's head will most likely be a whole new mold like Fitso's was. The only bads thing about this whole line is the denial of Sugi in the gunship. Why does TLG love Assassin Droids?! Answer: It's cheaper
-
Your MOCing and MODing skills are truly impressive! Fantastic work Kiel! I like how you stuck to the basic TLG RGS design and only applied the mouth decal on the side panels. The detail and custom troops are super, as usual. Do you have two Republic Gunships? If so, it would be great to see them both together!
-
So you still can't get out the dungeon? (I have a PS3 version) Just so I know whether to go in or not!

In the game they had different actors, with Morrison doing Sev (he played Jango Fett). Maybe they'll chnage it, I don't mind really. -
Perhaps, but I just tested that theory. A totally black one still has the same price tag as Boba in true colours! Meh, I'll have money to get them after my birthday!
-
£13! For Boba and Jango, £22. I think it discounts depending how many you add.
-
Sorry Masked, I didn't mean to! I really want to, but they cost just less than £60!
-
Yes... somehow... I wonder how! Oh dear, I just confused myself... again! Hopefully it's one of those cutscenes they make up to get us excited, but it's not in the gameplay?
-
Is it me, or does Starkiller look totally different now?

Yep it's Delta Squad. More info over at Rebelscum: Clicky -
That looks so much better than the first game, but I want more physics engines so where you swipe your saber, the body falls apart in that place. Just having arms, legs, and heads falling off isn't enough for me! Thanks Sion!

Oh, that is awesome! Thanks for the link Forresto! It would be a crime if LEGO didn't make figures of them now. -
Hi everyone! I made my own Mandos recently using LDD and the amazing deigns for the Celebration event! Using different techniques in each character, fololowing the basic dimensions, I recreated my favourite Mandalorian characters. From left: Boba Fett, Jango Fett, Pre Visla, two Mando Warriors, and another Mandalorian. Comments always welcome.

Great! The upper head nneds to be a stud higher, though. I'll make my own thread with my own versions too.
-
That set is so cute and a great buy if you ask me. The warmness of it all makes it better than the Winter Toy Shop, and that little pond it shaaweet!
-
One more BL order. I'll edit the post when the parts arrive to add some pictures!

When and what will the next themed month be?

No, more like stuff we wanted to see happen, not stuff to add to the story. For instance, Fluffy eating Ron in the first movie. -

In an interview Filoni said that Hondo took Slave I, repaired and repainted it in green and brown (his favourite colours). He did this because it was a rare ship, the only one of it's kind, and apparently Hondo collected old ships and made them work again, just like people here do with classic cars. Then he sold it back to Boba later. That just made my day! -
Congratulations guys. Enjoy that delicious apple! Looks like my raffle-winning skills are fading.

Doesn't work on my computer, but from the thumb I can see an awesome looking Phase I.5 Commander with yellow deco. Bly anyone? I just realised! There's ARF trooper with I.5 trooper! Does that mean there is a strong possibility we will get them in the new BPs?
