  1. Not for everyone. Not everybody agrees that this is the best Castle subtheme, though it's definitely up there in my opinion.
  2. She would be nice in a LEGO store summer pack, and it would be great to see her physically someday. I like that hairpiece, but in Medium Azure + starfish and seaweed printing? A greater piece. And that lavender tail... It would be a shame to see such a good computer-generated design go to waste. However, I do hope that if a physical one is made, that they remove the yellow printing on the tail, though. First people were upset about some torsos not being fleshie/classic fig compatible, now we'll be up in arms about the mermaid tail! Syrena and Tamara's weren't interchangable between licensed/classic figs, so I hope that if Nicki Minermaid (thanks for a good nick-i-name, TrumpetKing!) gets released, she won't have the yellow triangle on her tail.
  3. The product placement funny is hilarious! Supes wants you to buy! NOW!!!!
  4. Haha, it does look like Nicki! I've seen a Playmobil mermaid wearing blue and with blue hair, and I think the flesh tone makes it look better. I do think the purple tail is interesting, but why would they make it? What would make it a separate character with a unique name?
  5. Okay, that pool is just over the line. Poor kids! They expected something bigger, and I honestly don't blame them. I'm glad LEGO doesn't embellish the sizes of their products.
  6. Maybe it was a typo, and he meant 11? I do hope they are shown at SDCC. but even more so that the pictures aren't blurry as heck.
  7. Oh, boy. Building time argument? Really? And started by the leader of the Minas Tirith debate, no less! And, TheLegoDr, another way to understand the size of Orthanc is to go to a LEGO store!
  8. Where did you find that? I hope it isn't it, since the Bobby on the left in the comparison looks like a better minifig possibility.. It's more traditional, too. I hope that picture isn't what we're getting. He looks darker skinned. Hmm...
  9. I've seen S7 recently at two TRUs.
  10. You're talking about the pictures, right? Because the actual figs come out in September.
  11. I would go with the Barge, because the new Padme is . The set doesn't interest me. Consider the scenes as well as the sets. Maybe that could add new insight?
  12. Especially the top two rooms.
  13. One problem with the review: It is an ENT, not Treebeard, and not a "treebeard" It's annoying that he calls all Ents that, as Treebeard was only one Ent. He made quite a few other errors, as well. Great review otherwise. I do like that the Eye palantir works in this set, as it looks great lit up. I saw it today at my LEGO store and it was quite large. I plan to get it soon, but likely not during the remaining promotional time.
  14. 1x1 plates fall off when attached to a surface. The Frankenstein's Monster from Studios originally used them, but the idea was scrapped because the plates wouldn't lift off with the feet. They followed through with it in the CMF Series 8 Diver, but the plates stuck to the base.
  15. I knew it from the start, but you'll see a debate about it if you look back a little.
  16. Indeed the white dynamite looks great as a candle. Put it in the narrow end of the telescope piece and you have a great candlestick! And I agree, some items are pointless in red. I really like the Ogre Armor since it's reversible and finally gives us the chance to have two-headed minifigs. The Demon Armor/Shield/Helmet with the Dragon Wings and Tail are a really cool combination. You use Uruk-Hai in your picture scenarios to show off the parts a lot!
  17. I remember that both lists were revealed, but I only knew of the Librarian as the Female Scientist until later. Back on topic, I think the Yeti has one head/chest fur piece.
  18. I knew the scientist would be female, as she was partially leaked in the Series 10 preliminary overview. The Librarian was originally mislabeled the "Female Scientist" and was seen with the flasks. And I would like to see the rest of S11. Who cares about Series 12 right now?
  19. The DS will likely be replaced by the Ewok Village as the "Big Star Wars playset". And Jabba's Palace was originally going to be put out of production by then, but LEGO made it sound like "We'll stop making it in 2014 to appease you".
  20. Who wants the battle horn for Boromir? I particularly like some of your accessories, including the Voodoo Doll: The Scroll: And the Wrapped Baby: I wish I had these! The only problem is that some pieces like the singular stick of dynamite aren't available (yet) in the image color. Dynamite is red, and pictures show it in that color, but you cannot get it in that color.
  21. You beat Artifex to the punch! The video makes it look really large and imposing. I got the VIP email today. It gets more and more tempting...
  22. I'm sorry, but I see nothing, since the princess in the first picture is so small.
  23. Am I the only person who doesn't care about the Lieutenant at all? I don't really like clones, as they're not interesting to me. They also seem like they're there for an army on the Republic's side, so I don't really care for them. Imperial troopers are another story...
  24. And white on red, too: (The torso, LEGO made the hat white with red paint to avoid it there.
  25. I'm sorry, but I didn't understand that post. Could you please explain?
