Wow, that's alot of figs! Absolutely looking forward to them! Thanks again for this raffle! ~ General Magma

The amazing 5974 Galactic Enforcer! Now my SP3 2009 alien collection is fully complete! ~ General Magma

I've been following your comics for quite a while and have read everything so far. I think it's the only comic around of which I really look forward to seeing the next parts, everything is done very nicely and the comics have very good plots. The humor in it is nicely done aswell. So I'm looking forward to the next one! ~ General Magma P.S. In your newest comic's description I read you got the 5974 G.E., I'm planning on maybe getting it too soon (with my Christmas money) but I'm not sure. I'm not even sure IF I will spend it on LEGO, but do you recommend it?

Looking at the new pics, the orange guy may be another Frenzy, if you look at its height. Looks all very nice so far. ~ General Magma

Nothing, but I got 100 euros from my grandma who visited us today. I still don't know what sets to get though. Much more than last year, especially as I got about 250 euros earlier this month for another holiday we have in my country. ~ General Magma

Merry Christmas! I will get money, and am unsure if I will buy something soon already or keep it for 2010 sets. (I'm pretty lucky already I will get something, as we already have another holiday in december in my country each year, and I got ALOT with that this year.) ~ General Magma

Looks good. But I see he's also very similair to mine. Ever seen it? (the top part, atleast - BTW my GG has changed since then - white dishes, new custom front tile, and claw pieces as feet): link I think many people use the design with the dishes though. Anyways it's nicely done but I also recommend to replace that blue piece with a white or light bley one, and maybe the legs should be a little bent up.. still an improvement from the original one. ~General Magma

Yay! I won on the last day! It was a surprise for me, after the first 23 days didn't show my name I wasn't going to expect to win anymore, but then checked today, and thought "Wow! I won!" Thanks again for this wonderful raffle, I'll make sure to participate next year again! The waiting was fun and so was winning! Congratulations to all other winners aswell! ~General Magma

The sets look good 'n all, I'm just disappointed that the base looks nothing like the one from the SP3 animation logs, which looked very nice. Also about the minifigs; one of them is a purple alien, kind of cowboy-like, another is a recolored Skull Twin (I think), and I can also spot an alien with a cyan skin color and red/orange eyes, looks a bit like Squidman, although I don't know if it's a new variation of him or not. Cyan alien is in all 3 new sets, the purple guy only in one. The orange thing in set 5985 may be the new Skull Twin, but I heard there's a fourth and unrevealed set, so he might be in that too. I doubt that orange thing is a minifig but you never know... Maybe the Black Hole Gang is still out there, just with new members. (would've liked a new gang, though) Set 5984 has the 4 wings on the vehicle just like ALL the other earlier Black Hole Gang vehicles. On the front it appears to have a technic cannon. 5985 has a car vehicle and a strange, white flying thing that appears to be flying out of the base. Can't wait to read the bios for the new aliens to find out who they are, and where they came from or what their gang is. ~General Magma

Erm...it's ok, but on the other side I don't like it. Maybe more detailed, but the older SW heads were just dot eyes with a stripe as a mouth, eyebrows, maybe a stripe under the chin, done. This will also have effect on the old faces that most of us liked. Like sok117 said, the Landspeeder set shouldn't have smiling minifigs, especially after Luke losing his home, aunt and his uncle. It will have effect on ALL of the existing heads returning to sets soon. I don't like this. I don't like this at all. "I feel a disturbance in the Force." ~General Magma

Thanks everyone for the nice comments! I do really appreciate it! @CommanderFox: Just wait and I'll be two steps ahead of you, if not three! ~General Magma

I see, is it the newer motorized AT-AT or the older one? By the way, I'd also like to know; where do you get the pieces? I don't really have a lot of white, PaB online is too expensive (and the closest LEGO store is a country away), maybe I can use BL but the people with high amounts of 2x4 and other sized white bricks are more expensive... either that or the description says they are in bad quality. Now about your MOC; are you going to add a roof too? I'd like to see how it looks like with a roof. ~General Magma

Maybe this helps (I don't know, can't take much better pics ): The piece in the middle is this one. (just took the pic with a lamp at late night) @Roncanator: Thanks, and yes the antenna looks a little too big but I didn't know how to do it otherwise, but I'll see if I can fix it sometime soon. ~General Magma

I need an X-Wing too, but I'm going to need the newest version from 2006, hope it will still be available then. I hope I can get as many white pieces as possible. I will also make the corridors, and far away from it I will add a Wampa cave. ~General Magma

@Penitent: Is that a smiley face for Luke there? ~General Magma

Yep. It starts with this Probe Droid, then I collect many Hoth sets (battlepacks and such, also the ones coming out next year in the second wave) Then I slowly make some more figures and stuff for it, then I need many pieces to build the Echo Base, I will add surroundings such as the turrets, the trench, and details outside. I am hoping to buy an AT-AT sometime soon. Then I maybe need an AT-ST and a Millenium Falcon. (I don't have any Millenium Falcon, and I don't want the midi one which is too small... maybe I'll have to make one myself if possible) I'm going to include many LED lights aswell, I hope it will atleast turn out like I expect it to be. It's not gonna be a giant like this at all, I will try to make it at a good size that's not too small, not too big. Can't wait to build it. ~General Magma

Hello all! I wanted to show my newest MOC, the Imperial Probe Droid! As usual my pics are blurry, sorry about that but please excuse me for it. I photographied most of it with snow visible around it. I couldn't take my webcam outside (I know I know, I'm trying to get a REAL camera but that'll take a while) so I shoveled snow onto a baseplate and took it inside, so there still could be snow. So here it is: It has five arms; four are long ones, one of them is short. (I think it's supposed to be like that too) The piece in the middle is this one. More pics in this BS folder when public. Enjoy! ~General Magma

This is GREAT NEWS! I have SWBF1 myself and IMO it's absolutely a great game! I would like to play another one in the series. Though what I'm hoping for is a PS2 release... *fingers crossed* ~General Magma

Thanks for this great review, Etzel! Can't wait to get a few of those, along with the snowtrooper BPs. Though I'm disappointed that they changed the outfits, now only the 'officer' has the real outfit. Oh well, I can always replace the legs and the arms. Overall it's a great set and definately worth buying, to make the troopers more accurate you'll need a few of those light grey hips, white legs and light grey arms. I guess that's better. ~General Magma EDIT: 400th post...

OK, thanks! Haha, same here. By the way, got any AT-AT\'s? ~General Magma

This is very nicely done! It's awesome! Will you add a Millenium Falcon too, and how much did this cost you? I hope to make a nice Echo Base diorama next year aswell. I'm wondering, which type of LED lights did you use, because I myself can't manage to put a LED light inside that cheese-slope grill piece while the light is on or something sticks out? All in all, you've done a very great job on it, thanks for sharing it! ~General Magma

WOW! This, is AMAZING! Hopefully I'll have enough money for them! The new Grievous looks awesome, I can spot Nahdar Vebb, and that droid from CW Ep "Lair of Grievous" (can't remember his name, though) Hopefully Aayla won't be too anime-styled, and I am looking forward to better pics soon! The new Wampa mold looks good, and a new snowspeeder? Awesome! Boba Fett and Bossk are very nice too, don't know about Han Solo... I think the white box in the Slave I pic will be the Han-in-carbonite. Boba Fett has a small cape on his shoulder. The Wampa appears to possibly have Tauntaun horns. I think Palpatine is from the 10188 Death Star. New Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker minifig, clone pilot and a med droid. Do I see a new AT-RT in the CTT? It's kinda stupid that Bane has two BLASTERS instead of two smaller, grey pistols. But that may change. No lookout tower this time... Overall, 2010 will be a GREAT year! Can't wait! Thanks, KimT! ~General Magma
