  1. I don't like the meme either. It's just stupid. Haters of the meme come ou!
  2. They already have done a dragonfly, albeit a small one, in the Obliterator. What is the Hive Crawler supposed to be, insect-wise? The Crater Creeper is obviously an ant, but the Crawler? I really want those printed dome pieces used for its "eyes".
  3. Well whatever the Barbie house was called, it was still funny. All I know about Barbie's Dream House is that Greg Heffley wanted one when he was younger! (oh, I hope someone will get that!) Keep it up, Oky! I hope to make some and post them soon! (Teaser: Two-Face is in one, Nick Fury is in the other...)
  4. (Sees new trailer) I absolutely love how Tonto is a comic relief character without being offensive at all. He is funny while not a butt of jokes, especially not towards Native Americans, and I think Disney is wonderful in how they pulled it off. "Something very wrong with that horse." Back to the sets. The Constitution is growing more on me every day. I don't think I'll be able to pass up any set in the theme now. I will unfortunately have to pick up some $70-$80 sets from last year (which will take some time working out the money) before they're gone in the summer before getting LR sets! I think Ray may be my favorite minifigure under Miss Harrington. His face is hilarious and I love his grungy outfit! If only LEGO could've printed some scuff marks on his hat (à la Mr. Good and Evil). Then again, his vest is the dirtiest part. The movie will reveal more, I'm sure. It's infuriating not knowing the background of the scenes, or who Red really is! (I'm glad Helena won't be playing a one-dimensional "naughty girl", seeing as she carries a pistol and has an ivory peg leg with a gun in it -the white leg-. She's a pretty dangerous gal!) EDIT: I just noticed that both Johnny Depp characters as minifigures have a stopwatch 1x1 tile as an accessory!
  5. A trans-green 1x1 round tile, eh? What set(s) is it in?
  6. Oh. Oops and darn it. The flick-missiles aren't advertised well, so I didn't notice them. I guess it just wouldn't be LEGO without the stupid things, would it? By the way, no need to quote my whole post, just delete what you don't need within the quote code.
  7. You know what's best about this theme? It has NO, count 'em, NO flick-fire missiles! :grin_wub: Ever since the blasted "play features" came about, at least one set in a play theme will have flick-fire, so a whole THEME (albeit a small one) without them is quite a pleasant surprise. I like the Silver Mine the most (and will get it first). The Stagecoach is next, and then maybe the Constitution Train Chase. Tonto is my favorite minifigure in the theme, interesting yet accurate. What I don't like about his non-Silver Mine variation is that, based on what I've seen of the serious film Tonto in the trailers, the expressions are wrong! His happier face just doesn't look quite right, and his scared face looks even more ridiculous than Robin's! He also looks slightly too young. I still like him, but I think the Silver Mine version is the best.
  8. I was thinking that Butch Cavendish's hairpiece (but shortened) from the Lone Ranger theme could be used for the Scarecrow, recolored brown for the hat and yellow for the straw hair. Wonder if his head will be tan or yellow. There's a chance for a new flannel shirt print...
  9. Is that Green Lantern ring an official piece at an obscure angle? If not, what is it? Gollum should have a ring black market all leading to him! I love your PIXAR references, as I will always understand them! This was no exception, and I thought it was quite funny!
  10. April can't go by fast enough! It's interesting that I went to the LEGO store yesterday and they gave me a May calendar as a "preview". Early April, yet I get a May calendar! At least I can read the small print now!
  11. Ooops. Idiot moment. I didn't notice there was a page start after the question. My post got pushed to the end and I thought I got ninja'd. Amazing what stupidity can do these days!
  12. The figure in the Black Zero pod device is General Zod: http://lego.wikia.co...ack_Zero_Escape Back in my day, $20 sets only had TWO minifigures! EDIT:Darn! Just got ninja'd by Daniel Gourhan 22!
  13. Yay, it's back! With a new banner to celebrate! Oh my gosh. Just took a closer look at the banner What's the butcher trying to do to the Minotaur? I wouldn't eat that beef.....
  14. Everyone is feeling like an idiot now and failing miserably to defend their dignity! "I knew all along, I was just trying to get people riled up"? Please.
  15. Ah.... Oky, Oky, Oky. Mandarin and "Dr. Doom-to-licensed-fictional-locations-with-the-word-Doom-in-it" funnies are recurrent in your work! How may more can you do? Sure I'll peruse your funnies to see what I like! I've got a few more ideas brewing with my new Spider-Cycle Chase set and promotional Hulk (thanks to Kyphur)!
  16. So, when is it changing back?
  17. I may not be over-excited about the change, but I think that the people who are leaving just because of the name change and banner need to get a grip. The forum is still awesome, and that's what counts.
  18. This is ridiculous. I suggested a poll. but a poll with a "NO" or other negative answer. You are just making people agree to it to some degree. Give them a chance to say no, and maybe the results will change something. May I also suggest a " Yes, but I would like a non-patriotic banner" option?
  19. I have finally given in and fully accept Ameribricks! I do wish that the banner could be changed, and not because of insulting stereotypes, but because it is too USA specific. Make it more inclusive, please!
  20. Has joined in on the "patriotic sigfig" craze. Go USA!

  21. I'd like to join! I'm good at the words part of reviewing, but I need photography help, which I know will benefit me in the future.
  22. Wow. A lot has changed in a day. Yesterday, everyone was whining, now we're trying to outdo each other with American songs and "accept other cultures" messages. I almost preferred it before!
  23. If I get Mr. Gold by any method. I plan to keep him and prize him. I am not a person to sell things I like, anyway. The chrome factor bugs me, because without it I would be able to pass on Mr. Gold! Of course, if I get him, it will be the most special if I find him myself.
  24. Are you happy now? Shadows gave us the truth.....
  25. It is just a dumb way to say "American". I wish it never started!
